Reviews of Andrew Roby Events

Reiko Suber

Over a month has passed since our wedding- yet Kevin and I are still stumbling, trying to find the words to express our gratitude to Andrew and his team for giving us the best day of our lives. Before Andrew, we were wracked with anxiety. There was so much that we didn't know, and yet there was so much that had to be done. Immediately. And while we knew that we needed help, we did not know where to turn. So as one does, we picked up our phones and looked towards Google. Andrew Roby Events ("ARE") was at the top of the list for event planning services. After scrolling through ARE's website, reading articles about Andrew's background, watching his inspiring videos and - most importantly, looking at photographs of his work, I just knew that he wouldn't be available or would be out of our price range. After all, it was clear that he was a giant in the industry. There was just no way! But I crossed my fingers and sent an inquiry anyway. I was gobsmacked to receive a positive response and to hear of his willingness to scheduled an exploratory Zoom call with us to discuss our needs and wants. Things changed after our first meeting with Andrew. My fiancé and I had been lost in a thicket, but Andrew took our hands and led us to our destination. Not only were we granted complete access to a wedding database (that helped us track deadlines, our budget, and guest list), but to Andrew himself. He coached us and helped us to formulate our vision for the wedding. We told him our dream, and he not only designed, orchestrated and executed every detail - he exceeded every element our fantasy. I've included pictures that not only showcase the beauty that Andrew created, but that also show the love that he gave us through his work. Kevin and I will forever be grateful to Andrew. What he did for us, our family, and our friends can never be repaid. He is, by far, the best.

Andrew and team are superb (to say the least)! We started planning our nuptials in DC but quickly found out moving it would give us more bang for our buck. Without missing a beat, Andrew planned the wedding of our dreams in Arkansas. Being their first wedding in the state, they were able to source exceptional vendors from decor to catering to hair and make-up. Wedding day is when the team shined brightness. Everything ran smoothly, vendor timeline was sent out weeks in advance, all payments had been settled, guests knew where to go, they ordered food for the bridal party for hair and make-up, and all we had to do was show up. As a bride, the comfort of being stress free weeks before the wedding because your wedding planner took care of everything was worth every cent. I have yet to hear anything negative about the day from all involved and guests were so impressed with Andrew. Even after the wedding, Andrew made sure we met all contractual agreements, equipment was returned and we didn't even have to think about it. He endured the videographer sent our teaser within 7 days, and we got it 6 days later. Oh, and I failed to mention (shame on me), that Andrew is also a wedding designer. I was never one to dream of getting married nor did I have a Pinterest board he could follow. Andrew asked us a series of questions and for general ideas of what we liked. From there is curated a wedding design and experience that was perfect - even down to a wedding scent. If you're looking for someone to plan your wedding or next event, stop scrolling! This is the person you need to hire. We can't thank you enough Andrew and team. We will be using you again!!

Andrew and his team were fantastic to work with. As wedding photographers, it's always great to have a planner to work with, but Andrew and his team take that experience to the next level.

Morgan Elias

Another wonderful experience! This is our 2nd time working with Andrew. The first time was for our wedding and this time for our August Backyard Brunch. My husband I decided we wanted to host brunch for our family members who celebrated milestone birthdays this year. We hired Andrew to handle event planning, decorations, event set up and break down. As always Andrew and his team did not miss a beat. Andrew was able to work with multiple vendors to transform our backyard into the elegant brunch we wanted to have. As always it is a pleasure working with Andrew. He is our family event planner. He always shows up and shows out! Thanks again for making our experience wonderful.

Andrew and his team were amazing partners in helping us pull off a fantastic LA book launch party after which the author said "If I could have said all the ways I would have wanted by book launch to go - full of family and friends, and just a showing of love and support. The night was perfect.” With just three weeks to go until the event, Andrew and Reggie stepped in and coordinated all of the vendors, sketched out the event plan, helped with permits, and a million other things that needed to be done. Andrew's expertise was so appreciated and his team did an amazing job of welcoming our guests and keeping the party running smoothly. Everyone who attended said it was a stellar event and I couldn't agree more. Highly recommended!

So where to begin?! We had the pleasure of working directly with Andrew from the beginning to the end. We initially started interviewing wedding planners about two weeks after our engagement period. While interviewing, we noticed that most of the companies were offering the same packages, so we decided to ask, "What makes your company stand out than the rest?". Most companies were unable to answer this question, but, Andrew was able to respond. While we are unable to state his answer verbatim, he did state he was fun and interested in building meaningful relationships with his clients. That he sure did! We have grown to appreciate Andrew, the business of event planning, and has labeled him as our family event and decor planner for all of our needs. The planning process for the wedding was a breeze because we were able to trust Andrew fully and was able to build a relationship with him. The day of the wedding, Andrew was always near or had someone near us while he put out other fires. Andrew assisted us from the wedding planning, day-of coordination, decor, and so much more. We were blown away and left with a sense of knowing each and every penny spent was well worth it. The reception decor was so glamorous and exceeded all of our expectations. We appreciate Andrew and the team and wish nothing more but, for God to continue to bless him and his team with an abundance of favor, divine creativity, and prosperity over every area of his life and the business. Thank you, Andrew, Morgan and Quacey

Andrew is an absolute pro! His Micro Wedding package saved our wedding and my sanity. After spending a year planning a destination wedding, postponing twice, then cancelling due to COVID-19, I was emotionally exhausted. A Google search for “elopement in DC” brought me to his Micro Wedding page. He thought of everything! All I had to do was make a few basic choices and he took care of the rest. Andrew and his team of vendors are amazing: professional, responsive, compassionate, and so, so patient.

I have never hired an event planner for previous parties. With this being a milestone birthday for my mother, I wanted to make it was extra special. Andrew made the entire process so easy! He has the connections in the DC area to recommend the best caterers, entertainers, and bakeries to make sure that your guests will have a great time. He uses technology to make the communication, contracts, payment, and planning very easy. On the day of the party, he did not interrupt our visiting with guests with any issues. He only checked in to make sure we were having a good time! We will definitely use asking him to help us with any future events, and we have been recommending his services to anyone that asks. Thank you, Andrew for all of your work and for making a memorable evening for our family and friends!

Finding Andrew Roby Events was a wedding saver for my husband and I. In just over a month, Andrew took us from having literally nothing planned to having a beautiful, intimate wedding. Andrew was prompt and professional - he helped us select and connect to talented vendors that swiftly and tastefully brought a previously non-existent vision to life. From invitations to reception, everything was taken care of! Wedding planning is notoriously stressful, but Andrew's expertise kept the process moving smoothly. Our day was genuinely relaxed and joyful! Andrew was hands on the day of the wedding, coordinating vendors, decor details and event timing with patience and skill - even helping me manage my bouquet and train of my dress. We loved our wedding - we've already re-watched our wedding video and shared it with friends and family in over a dozen countries. We are so grateful to Andrew Roby Events for everything he did to help us have such a wonderful day!

The end result was beyond our dreams!!! Everything went according to plan; the ceremony and reception space looked AMAZING; and the day ran so smoothly! Andrew and his staff did an incredible job; we are truly appreciative!!! Our family and friends continue to rave about our day. He worked extremely well with all vendors, and even provided vendor suggestions as needed!!We would absolutely recommend Andrew to any couple!!! Don’t wait; book him now!!!

Hi Andrew! THANK YOU! We had an amazing day Sunday-our intimate ceremony was perfect! Everything was beautiful, the venue, decor, the vibe-simply beautiful. We had so much fun within that hour it felt as if we had a larger wedding- it didn’t feel like a micro wedding. Our virtual and in-person guest are still complementing how everything was beautiful, classy, and very well put together for our ceremony. Thank you for creating an amazing vendor team and for a wonderful job and experience Sunday. All of vendors provided excellent service and were very responsive and knowledgeable to any questions I had. They were professional, kind, and patient with us throughout the entire process. On the day of our ceremony it was a great joy working with Trene’ and her creative photography skills to capture our special moments including Chip’s exceptional videography services that allowed us to stream our ceremony. KUDOS to you and your amazing team with Andrew Roby Events for providing great service on our special day. I will personally thank each vendor for an amazing job and experience. Have a wonderful holiday and please continue to stay safe and be blessed.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Andrew! I called Andrew with a 7 day notice that we decided to have a microwedding and asked if he could help us out. Not only did he find our officiant, videographer, florist in less than 24 hours... he also took care of all of the logistics the day of the wedding. From the music, to holding my flowers & dress, to organizing the group photos - he was a lifesaver. The day was perfect and Andrew was a BIG part in making it that way!

Alana Simmons

Sending a huge thanks to Andrew Roby Events for their phenomenal work on our virtual event! Even though a tornado watch interrupted our live event, Andrew worked quickly with our presenters to capture their recorded sessions, and flawlessly, put together a video for our parents and caregivers. Outstanding customer service and highly recommended!!!

Stephanie Oliver

Our team recently worked with Andrew Roby Events on a photo shoot of our event space in the new International Spy Museum and we couldn’t have been more pleased! From start to finish, Andrew was organized, flexible and truly easy to work with. He helped us bring our space to life and we’re so very grateful for his partnership.

Andrew Roby is one of the most thoughtful, articulate, and visionary event planners I have had the pleasure to work with. Throughout the entire planning process he was attentive and responsive - as if my event was the only one he had on his plate. (Certainly not the case!) Beside access to his breadth of expertise, I also had the opportunity to watch videos and read posts from his event planning site and facebook page that helped inform me not only as his customer, but also as a host for a party. Moreover, Andrew demonstrated his commitment to his clients when I informed him we had to cancel the party due to an unexpected illness in the family. Without any delay or inconvenience to me, Andrew quickly conferred with the vendors we had hired, refunded the deposits I payed, and checked in on my family from time to time. I am grateful to know that professionals such as Andrew exist to not only make party planning a breeze, but to also roll the carpet back in the face of unexpected circumstances. Thank you, Andrew!

Andrew and his team planned my wedding for 100 people in about four months. He left no stone unturned, tried to keep me on task and organized, and assisted with choosing vendors and getting contracts in place. He listened to what I wanted in terms of decor and made great suggestions and created a stunning setting for the ceremony and a gorgeous reception. He was available to handle even the smallest detail. Most importantly, on the day of, I was able to relax while he coordinated with the venue, the various vendors, and my wedding party to make sure that things ran smoothly (and that I never found out if things were NOT running smoothly) and according to schedule. I highly recommend him and his team!

Shernita Munson

Creative Forte Events provided a paper flower wall for Andrew Roby Events. Working with Andrew Roby and his team was seamless. They are professional, poised, and organized, not to mention unbelievably talented. I look forward to designing other paper flower walls for Andrew Roby Events again in the near future.

We had an amazing night at the Muna Serenade event planned and hosted by Andrew! Andrew and his team were amazing! Very friendly, welcoming, and prompt!! I would without a doubt recommend Andrew and his team for any event, especially a wedding!

Denyse Gordon Watts

I've worked with Andrew and his team for 3 years now and they are indeed consummate professionals! Andrew knows what we need when we need it. I never worry about circling back to 'make sure' a task was done - and that's a testament to his and his entire teams work ethic. If you need a team to plan, and execute your event flawlessly - then give him a call!

Dear Andrew & team! I can't thank you enough for all your hard work in planning my big 40th birthday bash! From start to finish, you provided excellent service and the utmost professionalism. The venue you recommended was so perfect and your guidance helped me tremendously in staying on budget. Thank you also for bringing such fresh ideas to make my party one to remember. It was one EPIC 80s/90s themed party! God bless you and your flourishing business. You are amazing at what you do! You'll be hearing from me again for my next big event! XOXO Sincerely, Monica H.
