Amy Winters Events

Never had the opportunity to give a review for an event planner. But I must admit I had to write something about Amy Winters Events. I was at a friends daughter’s bat mitzvah several weeks ago that was planned by Amy Winters Event… I was expecting the same, usual run of the mill parties. Loud music, lots of kids and lots of edible food. At arriving at the venue, I was floored. The decorations, the set up and ambiance was truly amazing. The space was magical. It was transformed into a fantasy world I could not have imagined. I complimented the parents of the party and they pointed to a woman across the dance floor. They told me that her name is Amy from Amy Winters Events. I have since hired Amy to plan my wedding. If Amy can create a fantasy for a 13 year old. I am sure she can plan my wedding with the same creative enthusiasm. I shall keep you posted

I can’t say enough amazing things about Amy Winters, who planned my wedding earlier this year. My wedding was everything I ever dreamed of from start to finish. She perfectly executed my vision, from our first meeting months before the event until even after it was all over. I loved working with her for invitations, music, design, and more. She has impeccable taste and was not pushy in any way. She really struck the perfect balance between holding my hand and letting me come up with my own creative touches to the event. Everything felt so personal — and it was! I can’t recommend her enough.

For all of you out there looking for an event planner for your special event please beware. I engaged Amy Winters Events last December for my son’s Bar Mitzvah in September and she was supposed to help me along in the process and make my life planning a monumental event much easier. Unfortuneately that was not the case. She was impossible to work with and whatever I asked her to do she basically had little to no interest in helping me along. She was happy to take my money and promised that she would do anything and everything for the event. The contract read coordinate, design and execute affair. She did not coordinate, she certainly did not design and I guess she executed but was happy to leave early that evening and never even mention that she was going. I had no guidance, I did invitations, accessories, party favors, bags, labels, etc. I asked her for help with entertainment for the kids she told me to talk to the entertainment company (pure energy who is amazing). I had nothing but attitude for 8 months. I would have had more pleasure burning my money. For all you out there looking for a NYC/​NJ based party planner this was not the best choice.
