What sort of weddings and events do you specialize in?

Our all time favourite events are those outside the box. We specialize in unique venues – tents, private properties, museums, galleries, and warehouses. If we can build the location or customize it for you that’s when we’re in our element.

It really comes down to our personality. We love our clients and believe you should truly connect with your Wedding or Event Planner!

Is Amanda Douglas Events just a one-woman show?

Amanda has a wonderful team – all trained by Amanda herself – who are brilliant at coordinating weddings and events. Ensuring that on your special day, you’ll be well taken care of.

Do you ever book more than one wedding or event on the same day?

On occasion, we will book two events on the same day, but each event will be managed by a separate team to ensure every couple gets the energy and attention they deserve.

Are you able to travel for my wedding?

Yes! We love traveling, so it’s a great combination of two of our favourite things! We specialize in planning events at unique venues and love the logistical challenge of creating an incredible wedding from nothing. We particularly love working in nature. If you’re planning a wedding at the lake, a wedding in Kenora, or at an out-of-town property, then we’re up for the challenge.
