Testimonials
Georgia Aquarium engaged Johnnie & Co. Events to recruit and sheppard restaurants for participation in its annual Aqua Vino wine and food fundraiser. They exceeded our expectations by recruiting 26% more restaurants for the event than we had ever had in its 12-year run, introducing new and exciting options for over 1,000 event attendees. Due to Johnnie & Co.’s immense vendor connections and aggressively pounding the pavement on our behalf we were able to raise over $120,000 in a single night, making it one of our best years. I would recommend Johnnie & Co. Events to any non-profit who needs to protect leadership’s valuable time and conserve finances smartly.

Johnnie worked tirelessly with me as a consultant/vendor to develop, plan, and market a mass-participation fundraising event for one of the region’s largest hospitals. Throughout, she was the consummate professional, taking complete ownership of all projects assigned to her, and becoming fully invested in the overall outcome of the event! Johnnie is a determined, hard-working, self-starter who will bring that passion and commitment to any project.

Johnnie was one of the most organized Event Planners I have met. I’ve done countless photobooths over the years with sloppy event planners not knowing what the plan was till I arrived and scrambling to piece everything together. Johnnie was on her A-game and she didn’t miss a beat!!

As a venue owner (and a former 20 year planner) Johnnie is by far one of the most detailed, efficient, professional, caring and overall amazing planners…We see a ton of planners come through our venue and Johnnie is on a short list of planners we absolutely adore.

I’ve worked events along side Johnnie in the past and have personally witnessed her work ethic and attention to detail. She is well-organized, communicative, friendly, and hard-working. Johnnie is meticulous when it comes to detailing the logistics and scheduling aspects of each event she works, and just by glancing at the unique run-of-show packets she creates for these events, it is abundantly clear how much she truly cares about the final product. If you want someone to put the care and effort into your big day as if it was her own, you can’t go wrong with Johnnie & Co. Events.

Everything was incredibly smooth and I received more detailed instructions than I have for any other event, which helped me to be extra prepared. The entire day was gorgeous and flowed very smoothly.

Johnnie Sanchez, or Johnnie On The Spot as I call her was truly born to plan events. As a fellow planner, Johnnie has assisted me with celebrity weddings, corporate events and blow-out birthdays over the years and I’m always amazed by her! She has a keen eye for design, respects and recognizes every detail, and has a knack of connecting with the clients and their guests. Johnnie is a maverick when it comes to time management, one of the most valued skills in our industry. She is a true professional of her craft and has built a foundation of strong relationships with the most valued vendors here in the Southeast, including myself. I am honored to call her not only a trusted colleague but a friend now and can’t sing her praises enough! If you hire Johnnie, you can rest easy and know that your celebration with be an absolute success!
