I would not have made it through without Alyssa! I am not a planner by nature, and am definitely more of the “go with the flow” type. I was so worried that our big day was going to be a mess because neither of us had any idea what we were doing, but thought we could manage. I am so happy I decided to move forward with Alyssa! She was there every step of the way and orchestrated our day seamlessly. She coordinated every aspect of our wedding, and we had many: Three food trucks, a DJ, a guitar player, a bar camper, a photo van, furniture rental and donut truck!
We also did things that weren’t as conventional: our processional (and last minute add ins to the wedding party), no formal picture time and a champagne toast during cocktail hour. Alyssa was open to every idea and figured out how to include it in a way that it would flow and ensured that it would be our best day; but also be an expression of who we were together, it was important to us to enjoy our day and be comfortable! She made what was in my head come to life. We didn’t have to worry about a thing and were able to enjoy our visiting family and friends the few weeks leading up to the wedding.
I would highly recommend her just based on all of the above alone, but then there was this moment where I know I would have fallen to pieces without her. It was right before I was about to walk down the aisle, I could here our guitar player start to play my song, it was my cue! I was frozen there behind the wall divider and suddenly couldn’t breathe. All of this emotion just came rushing to me at once and I thought I may not be able to hold it together and pass out right there. Alyssa was right beside me, she took my hand, wiped my tears and said “hey, everything is perfect, you look beautiful and you are marrying your best friend today. Now don’t forget to smile.” I can’t express how much that moment meant to me. Thank you so much Alyssa, for everything.
