ABOUT
Amy Collins is the owner and creative force behind The Collins Collective, a premier collection of event related companies known for their innovative approach and attention to detail. With two decades of event planning, and an award-winning event design company in Santa Barbara, she moved back to Michigan to be near family to raise her daughter. She is currently in the process of finalizing her book deal with her publisher and is excited to bring her expertise to other Wedding Industry providers.
She currently owns and operates two of Detroit Metro’s top 5 wedding venues, a formalwear company named Blackbird, and Blue Sky Event Rentals which she collectively runs with her husband. Blue Sky is the fastest growing event rentals company in the Ann Arbor area. While her passion is weddings and planning for the past few decades, those jobs didn’t always pay the bills and for the first 15 years of her career. Amy also has a background in finance/technology having owned a financial services firm where she specialized in financial design for business owners, helping some of Santa Barbara’s most respected companies launch their brands into top ranked companies. Amy’s obsession with numbers and contract law, has positioned her as a no-nonsense industry leader with venue owners around the country, speaking on multiple stages across the country on industry specific (often overlooked) topics.
In her free time, she enjoys spending time traveling the globe for the emerging trends with her husband and daughter and cheering on the Wolverines.
