Ann has planned numerous weddings in Georgia, Florida and surrounding areas that range from intimate celebrations to large multicultural soirees. Her goal is to take the stress off her clients shoulders and always exceed their expectations so that they can enjoy the wedding planning journey with confidence while ensuring their day reflects their personalities.
fAST FORWARD TO NOW...
It has always been Ann's dream to own a wedding planning and design business. With a bachelor degree in Business Management and years of experience working in the travel & hospitality industry, she frequently interacted with visitors and vendors to execute events big and small. Ann took the plunge into self-employment 5 years ago and launched Akal Elegance Events to finally realize her dream of planning and designing bespoke events.

I love to curl up on the couch with a good novel or personal development book.

I love being near the ocean and nothing beats spending a day at the beach. Whether watching the sunset or helping my grandsons build sandcastles, the beach brings me as much joy as event planning.
The Beach
Whether it's a classic cocktail or a new invention, I love enjoying a cocktail on my day off.

GET TO KNOW ME
My Favorite Things
She was incredibly knowledgeable, had so many connections and recommendations, was honest and upfront about budgeting and timelines, and was so incredibly organized and professional. Not to mention she was incredibly kind and comforting during the entire wedding planning process, which can feel a bit overwhelming at times. I cannot thank her enough for helping me with my beautiful wedding and reception last month. The entire day was so organized, and I could focus on just enjoying my day and celebrating with our friends and family.
"Working with Ann was such a wonderful experience!"
Ann is the best! I found Ann very early on in my planning process, and one of the first things she said to me is that she wanted to take my stress and that’s exactly what she did. She was always available for any questions I had, she was on top of every vendor from the time we started looking to the day of the wedding, and she was such a delight to work with. When the day of the wedding came, she executed my vision beautifully and I was able to relax and enjoy my wedding day from the time I woke up to the brunch the morning after.
"I am so grateful for her and I know any bride would be lucky to have her as their wedding planner!"
I truly couldn’t have done it with Ann! She was so supportive and made the entire process smooth and amazing. The day of, her calming, encouraging, and fun energy was everything i needed. I love her and will never forget her!
"We are a few months out from our wedding and we still have guests bringing up how amazing she was!"
