We are so happy we had Alyssa as our wedding planner! Every detail on our wedding day was absolutely perfect, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful, seamless experience. From the big moments to the smallest touches, Alyssa’s thoughtful approach made the entire process—from the weeks leading up to the big day—so smooth and enjoyable for us.

As someone who loves organization, I really appreciated that Alyssa had all the necessary tools—Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, and more—readily available to keep everything on track. Beyond logistics, she also has an incredible eye for design and helped guide us through various choices while staying within our budget.

We feel so lucky to have worked with Alyssa and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing event planner!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Alyssa for my wedding last month, and I can't express enough how grateful I am for her incredible support and expertise. From our first meeting, it was clear that she was not only organized but also genuinely passionate about creating a beautiful day. It also helped that she did an amazing job planning my sister's wedding in the Fall 2023 so I knew it was an easy decision to make.

Alyssa took the time to understand our vision, guiding us through the entire planning process with ease. Her meticulous attention to detail ensured that nothing was overlooked, which alleviated so much stress. We did most of our planning from out of state so it was so helpful to have Alyssa nearby in case any issues popped up last minute that we could not attend to. I was particularly impressed with the amazing vendors she recommended. Each one was professional, reliable, and contributed to making our day unforgettable. It was like she hand picked the best of the best for my wedding day.

Thanks to Alyssa, our wedding went off without a hitch. It was the best day of my life and I owe so much of that to Alyssa. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a planner who is not only organized but truly cares about making your dreams come true. Thank you, Alyssa for making our special day everything we had hoped for and more!

Alyssa brought to life the wedding of our dreams! She made the process easy and seamless. She took the guesswork out of the millions of details. We hosted a nearly 100 person all day wedding at home and could not have done it without her. Friends and family have said numerous times "event of the year", "nothing like it", "it was magical"... and on and on. We cannot thank her enough for seeing through our vision of a fairytale day!

Hiring Alyssa to plan our wedding was the easiest and best decision we made when planning our wedding! Having no idea where to begin, and because we live out-of-state, we knew this would be overwhelming if we didn’t get help coordinating everything. From the first meeting we knew Alyssa was the perfect person to help us bring everything we’ve been picturing to life. Throughout the process, she gave us a variety of recommendations on style and vendors, kept us organized, scheduled meetings with vendors around our schedule, worked through contracts, and kept us on track with our budget. Alyssa did all of this seamlessly and efficiently. Leading up to the wedding and on the big day everyone kept saying I was so relaxed and calm - that’s because I knew Alyssa had everything covered and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Alyssa is truly the best and we can’t recommend her enough!!

Hiring Alyssa as our wedding planner was the best investment. There were so many little things leading up to the wedding that I would have missed if I hadn’t had Alyssa’s expert advice and forethought. The best part was, on the day of the wedding, I didn’t have to think about anything. Alyssa’s vision for the reception design and what the vendors she recommended put together exceeded my expectations. All I had to do was walk down the aisle and have fun with my friends and family. Guests even commented on how seamless the ceremony and reception were. I highly recommend hiring Alyssa for the peace of mind that everything will go smoothly under her direction.

Alyssa made all of our wedding dreams come true! I am from, and live, in Kentucky. My husband is from CT but relocated to Ky shortly after our engagement. We knew we wanted to get married at The Delamar in West Hartford (where we had our first date) but I had no idea how I could pull that off from so far away. Our engagement was in May and we decided on a September wedding. I spoke with Alyssa for the first time at the end of May, we worked out the initial details and I knew she was a perfect fit for our needs! She made the process so smooth, walked me thru every step, answered my hundreds of questions and accommodated our short timeline! She understood my vision of simple, with touch of vintage glam. Our day was perfect and beautiful and I could not have done it without her! Highly recommend!!

Working with Alyssa for our wedding was by far the best decision we made. I am an extremely anxious person, but throughout the entire 1.5 years of wedding planning I had zero stress because I knew that I could trust Alyssa and that she had everything under control! She is PHENOMENAL at what she does - super professional, punctual, and organized, and she has a wealth of experience that made the preparation and the day of SEAMLESS! She helped us select the most incredible team of vendors, managed our budget and payment schedule for us, coordinated all of the logistics, and designed the entire look and feel of the wedding. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day and I already miss working with her. Hire her!!!

When I got engaged in July 2019, I already knew a few things - my engagement wouldn't be very long and I would be getting married on the other side of the country (I live in Seattle, and my family is in RI.)

My fiance and I settled on a date in February, and I went into overdrive on wedding planning. I knew there was no way I could plan a cross-country wedding without help. I didn't search long for wedding planners before I found Alyssa. I really liked her vibe - she was young, experienced in hospitality, and was passionate about the most important things in life (dogs, wine, and ice cream). Considering I had big ice cream plans for my wedding, I was pretty sure Alyssa was the one for me. And after our phone consultation, I knew without out a doubt.

With only about 6 months to pull the wedding together, Alyssa became my lifesaver - I probably talked to her more often than my own fiance! We were pretty torn on locations, and without having time to visit in person, we relied on Alyssa to tour venues and FaceTime us. This was super helpful and saved us significant travel time and costs.

Throughout the whole wedding planning process, I was often pretty sure I was probably driving Alyssa crazy. Being a very organized, Type A person myself, I couldn't stop working on wedding things, even though Alyssa was on top of it all. I would often send her emails with things that randomly popped into my head - and she would respond that she had just been writing an email about the exact same thing! I'm sure at times she probably just wanted me to chill and let her do her thing, but she never seemed annoyed with me at all! I can imagine that working with brides, you have to be very patient and understanding, and Alyssa is certainly that. Something about weddings makes us brides go insane, so having a calm, steady person to guide you through the process is incredibly reassuring.

My biggest fear going into the wedding day was that all the random choices on things that I had made wouldn't all go together. Choosing things from afar made it hard to visualize the big picture. But walking into our reception space, I realized I never should have been worried. Alyssa was all over it, and the vendors she gave me to choose from were obviously perfectly curated for my wedding, because everything looked exactly how I had dreamt of. Her knowledge of vendors in MA, RI, and CT is extensive, because of her long tenure in the industry - and it shows. From florals to cake to rentals, everyone she brought to the table were as 5 star as she is.

Having Alyssa on hand to plan my whole wedding probably saved me from many emotional breakdowns. I would highly highly recommend her for the full wedding package. But if you can't afford that, even just bringing her on board for the day is worth it. Knowing that on my wedding day, all I had to do was get ready and show up was so amazing. I let Alyssa worry about the timeline and making sure the right people got to the right place and that really allowed me to enjoy the day stress-free.

I think the best way to explain how much I appreciated Alyssa is how I felt the day after. While we went to brunch, and headed to our honeymoon, Alyssa took care of the final logistics and then went home. I was so sad I didn't get to say goodbye to her in person, as she had become such a huge part of my life leading up to the wedding. But I'm so grateful I'l get to see her again - she's planning my little brother's wedding next year!
