I am going to just start this off with that my husband and I got married in a cow pasture. Without Rachel we would have not been able to have the wedding of our dreams. We got married on my husbands family ranch.we had to bring absolutely everything that you could imagine to run a wedding venue into a cow pasture and we couldn't have done it without Rachel. She was there from Day 1 of wedding planning to the very last minutes of our wedding night to make sure everything wastaken care of.

She was there for numerous appointments meeting with vendors along with contacting vendors to bring in generators, water, police officers for parking, bathrooms, catering, floral, design set up, band and SO MUCH more. Rachel helped plan our entire wedding and didn't leave any little or big detail out and I know that this was not an easy wedding to do either considering how much had to be brought in to make it run smoothy! She made our ranch wedding magical and classy. I adore Rachel and have recommended here to just about anybody I know that is getting married. Thank you so much Rachel!

Not only do a I frequently work with AATR on my client's beautiful weddings, but I knew they were the perfect designers for my own wedding in December 2014! I hired them for full event design (they literally gave me 1 job - get the dress! And even then, they came along!) and my wedding was the most incredible wedding I had ever been to! I'm probably pretty biased, but photographing 30 weddings a year, I had high standards and wanted something unique and original. They made everything perfect and the entire day ran without a hitch! I can't thank the team enough for helping me plan my dream day!
