  • Ann is truly the best!! I originally was not going to hire a coordinator, being very Type-A, I figured I could handle it myself. I am really happy I didn’t listen to myself because my day/weekend would not have been the same without Ann and all of her hard work. Every detail, from timelines, vendor coordination, decor setup and tear down, she handled it all. If something went wrong at my wedding, I have no idea. It was really important to me that my vendors all worked well together and I think Ann was that glue that held everyone together. She was respectful to everyone but still got shit done. I could go on and on about what she meant to me and my husband. I think that if you’re even questioning getting a coordinator - do it. And hire Ann, just meet with her. Because after one meeting you’ll see how fabulous she is and what an asset she is to you and your big day!!

  • I absolutely loved working with Ann Neely Events, LLC for my wedding! We used her as our month of/day of coordinator and it was such a relief knowing that a true expert was there to make the magic happen. Her communication and organization is above and beyond. If you need a coordinator for something small or big- book Ann!! You will not regret it!

  • Truly one of a kind!! Ann is remarkable in her vision and attention to detail. In a world where it’s hard to determine who stands out from the crowd, I’m telling you she’s THE pick. I’ve worked with Ann for years on countless events and I’ll tell you what you can expect. A cheerful, thoughtful, and dedicated professional that wants to see your event run smoothly. Ann never disappoints. Her main ingredient is ‘care’. Years of experience paired with care will make your next event one for the books. Hire her. You will be elated that you did. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ service.

  • Our wedding reception was hosted in the Armory Loft above Fleetwood’s. This space is INCREDIBLE! It truly is a blank canvas with so much character to it. I worked exclusively with Ann and I will tell you this woman is a Saint. She responded to every phone call, email, and request I had with promptness and politeness.

  • I worked with Ann and had such a wonderful experience. The whole process was easy as planning a wedding could be. Then when it came to the day, things couldn't have gone smoother. The guests loved the set up, the atmosphere was so fun, the food was amazing, and the crew behind it all were on top of their game. I would recommend this to any bride and groom. It was a perfect day for us!

  • Ann was the day of coordinator for my wedding on May 23rd and I am so glad we had her! From her keen attention to detail and care she has for her clients, she was so great to work with. Though it’s called “day of” coordinator, she does so much more work leading up to your event. The 6 weeks before our wedding we had met and gone through timelines, details, and kept all other vendors on the same page. Ann was always ready to answer any questions, concerns, or even just minor freak outs I was having about the wedding! When I say my wedding was literally perfect, I’m not exaggerating. ANE helped me and my husband have the best day of our lives. Keeping everything on time and making sure all decorations were set. She helped in so many ways that I didn’t even know if something was going wrong. Thank you Ann and Kim for all the work you did for us at our wedding! I would recommend ANE for all your event planning and coordination needs!

  • I worked with Ann Neely Events to coordinate my baby shower and would recommend ANE time and time again. Ann not only helped connect me to vendors for the day, but she also handled communication and timeline with them to make the day run smoothly. Ann was punctual, professional and organized before, during and after my event ended. After years in the industry, it’s evident she’s highly respected by many - and it shows!

  • Ann coordinated and worked with our team and the venue for our year end top client holiday party. She was fantastic and did the heavy lifting. Our clients had a great time!!!

    Frank D. | December 2025 Corporate Client

  • We had Ann as our day of coordinator and she did an amazing job helping our big day go off without a hitch. We had a thorough planning session, developing our timeline for the wedding, she brought up some great things that we hadn’t even considered. She was then able to take that and coordinate with all of our vendors to make sure everyone had ample time to setup and in the case of our photographer to capture all the shots we were hoping for. Ann was on site all day, keeping everyone on track and taking care of all those little things that come up that we can’t even plan for. She did such a great job and did so much to help our wedding day go smoothly so that we could enjoy ourselves. We cannot recommend her enough.
