Here is Amy's Bio to tell you more about here.
Amy Keene has been working with A`vie Weddings and Events since it’s opening in 2004. Amy began as an Associate Coordinator in addition to Angela’s personal assistant. Although she moved away for a little while, she has always felt like “A`vie family” and has been contracted for various events. Amy’s heart for events and planning started before working with weddings as she learned how to lead in ministry teams and community events. She was a Creative Arts team leader for three years in addition to working with Angela in the children’s ministry.

She began working in the wedding industry with a catering and events company where she first learned how all the details of an event come together. Her greatest joy of working with a couple on their wedding day is to see the happiness on their faces in the lifelong choice they make as all the details of their day come together to make it so special. Amy has experience working with large and small weddings and events of all kinds. Her past events include ‘Celebrating our Seasons’ with Interfaith Hospitality Network, local weddings, Bridal Expos, directing ministry programs including writing plays and directing special programs, and is currently on the committee for Dwight’s Fight Foundation.
Amy and her husband were married in Gainesville and enjoy living in a supportive community with great people and friends around. They enjoy spending time with family and friends and taking hikes with their dog Annie. As High School sweethearts, they grew up in town and later moved away for college. After realizing God’s plan for their life, they were married at Kanapaha Gardens among family and friends in a beautiful outside garden setting. It was while Amy was planning her own wedding, along with her coordinator, when she realized what special time is it to help others to enjoy the planning process for their wedding as it is such a joyous time to remember without having the stress and knowing what a fabulous day it will be. Amy works with A`vie as an Associate Coordinator and the Plantation Hall at Haile Manager. She is looking forward to working with you to help make your special day memorable.

So please welcome Amy to the A`vie staff.
