Hiring Alexis was probably the BEST decision we made during our wedding planning process. We used her partial planning service for a couple of reasons. We wanted to be involved in most processes, but needed some guidance on who to contact or when to start things. Alexis has so much knowledge about this industry and has a lot of connections, so she was able to point us in the right direction on things we wanted to handle ourselves. For other things, we didn't want to deal with planning and Alexis took over for us! She is a very collaborative person. She made sure she talked to us to figure out what we wanted at our wedding, and then we felt confident in her abilities to make our dreams a reality. We trusted her creativity so much that we didn't know what most of our decor would look like on the day of, and we were absolutely astonished at how beautiful it was. Our interests were pretty different than what standard wedding decor looked like, but Alexis really nailed it down to all the tiny details. She is super versatile: able to do a more traditional, Southern wedding or something that is totally unique and out-of-the-box. Alexis is very communicative and willing to go above and beyond for her clients. We never felt nervous throughout the entire planning process. The day of, we barely thought about our vendors or anything else because she handled everything. So many people at our wedding came up to us and told us how wonderful she was. I cannot overemphasize how much I think everyone should hire Alexis to plan their wedding!

Alexis was an absolute dream to work with AND this is coming from an extremely Type A Bride! She answered every text I sent, even at 10 pm or later. She did a wonderful job helping us bring our visions to life for our engagement party... all of our guests were in love! Thank you Alexis!!!

Deciding to plan a wedding with over 100 guests in five months seemed absolutely crazy and daunting to me, but the moment Alexis stepped into the picture and talked through the process with us, so many of my worries faded away. That assurance only grew as we continued to work together in that short amount of time. We had our wedding in September in Pittsburgh, which was out of town for where Alexis was based, but she worked with us closely and with our vendors, making sure communication and planning went smoothly. Alexis was a comforting voice and extremely knowledgeable through every step of the way, coming to Pittsburgh for the big decisions like catering, table linens, and decor. We did her partial planning services, because there were some things we wanted to handle on our own like photography and the DJ, but she made sure we were on top of all of that. Really the biggest help she provided throughout planning was her ability to help us stay organized and have clear communication between us and our vendors. She was even excellent with negotiating prices or helping us save costs wherever possible. When we were organizing our (multiple) after parties, Alexis helped us coordinate and seamlessly transition to those events from the reception. We were in the process of buying a house during this time and admits so much chaos in our lives, Alexis was our saving grace! And want to especially point out, when it came to decor, I shared some ideas of images that I liked for inspiration but Alexis took complete charge of that and the final product was better than anything I could have imagined. We completely trusted her throughout the process and she delivered whole-heartedly. I had no real idea of how I wanted the cake to look or our main table - just basic ideas - but Alexis brought it all to life. For the day of, we knew early on that Alexis would not be able to make it due to a prior work event, but she had put us in great hands with her team. Pauline did the decorations for our rehearsal dinner - which I hadn’t even given much thought to the decor and it looked absolutely amazing. The best part of it all, was that night, Alexis finished up her other assignment early and drove overnight to make it there for our wedding day. The day itself went so smoothly I didn’t have to this or worry about anything. And so many people complimented us on the wedding not just how it looked but how well everything was executed. We would not have asked for a more perfect day or experience. Anyone would be lucky to have Alexis plan their big day. We are so thankful for all she and her team did for us!

Alexis was my wedding planner, and she was amazing! She has a great eye for design. She looked at my Pinterest board and immediately said “I can make this happen if you want me too.” Of course I said yes! She coordinated with Ambient Lighting and Petal and Vine Florals and personally wrapped lamp shades (to save me money!) to create the most crazy beautiful hanging installation above my dance floor. I couldn’t have asked for more. She was also very on top of the planning process and coordinated all my vendors seamlessly. She took care of everything on the big day. If you want a beautiful wedding with less stress, book Alexis!
