Events by Allison (EBA) helped as my Day Of Coordinator for my wedding in May, and was absolutely fantastic! We had a kickoff call and two prep meetings as the wedding got closer, and Allison had everything buttoned up in prep for the day of. Immediately upon starting that morning, she helped tremendously coordinating every detail, getting things to/from hotel/getting-ready-room and the venue. I didn't realize how much I would need help before the ceremony even started so that was great. Then from the ceremony through the reception, she ensured we stayed on timeline, collaborated super well with the venue & catering (which ended up making an awesome team), and went above-and-beyond with problem solving with vendor issues that arose, through the end of the evening making sure our gifts/cards were securely placed in our room. I loved her style, coming from the corporate world prior to wedding events, it felt like she just got it from the start, and didn't need much direction/explanation. Even her organization in Google Drives made things efficient and clear. She was very friendly with me and my family, but also took no nonsense from any vendors which was the perfect combination! The next day my Dad complimented on how helpful she was and the problems she solved, which was a true testament to my experience as I wasn't aware of a single one of them the night of :). I am so happy I not only hired a DOC, but that it was EBA because of the perfect fit and help. I didn't feel that I needed support the months/weeks leading up to the wedding as I do project management/events for a living, but if that is not your expertise then would definitely recommend considering that! Thank you Allison and EBA for helping me enjoy a flawless wedding!! 10/10 recommend!! -

I was on the fence about hiring a day of coordinator. I felt like I was already very organized and had booked many of our vendors on my own, but I just wanted to have peace of mind on our wedding day. And I am SO glad that I found Allison. She went above and beyond to make sure the day ran smoothly. She arrived early to set up, was the ultimate hype woman, and even took care of our dog while we waited for our pet sitter to arrive. She was always checking in to make sure things were going smoothly and to see if we needed anything. I felt so confident knowing that Allison really understood my vision for the day. With the tropical storm, I knew we would have to pivot and change some plans and I knew that Allison would make the appropriate decisions because she knew what I pictured for the day. Even our photographer gave her a huge compliment, saying just how helpful she was. She didn’t overstep in any way, but she made sure to be present to help in whatever we needed.

Hiring Allison was one of the best decisions my husband and I made for our wedding day—she was absolutely fantastic! For most of the planning process, we were on the fence about whether we needed a day-of coordinator. I'm a high-anxiety person, so was definitely overwhelmed with wedding planning and wanted everything to be perfect (or as close as possible). Since our venue staff handled only minor tasks when it came to setting up decor, we decided to look for someone who could really manage the details, bring our vision to life, and put out any fires. We wanted to feel confident everything would run as smoothly as possible and that we wouldn't have to stress about anything on our wedding day. Allison did all that and more, and was SO reasonably priced! We went with the Day-Of Coordination package, which is listed on her website as beginning two weeks prior to the wedding date, but we signed our contract with her a little over one month before our big day and she immediately started providing support. She sent us a survey to fill out so that she could get a better idea of what we were looking for and what the feel of our wedding would be, which I loved because it helped direct our conversations when we got into details. She also sent us detailed spreadsheets, including an itemized list for how we wanted our decor and other items arranged. I created a shared Photos album where I prearranged centerpieces, framed photos, and other decor, and she either followed the concept exactly or made it work/look better with the space available on the day of. On the wedding day, she showed up bright and early when we were getting ready and made me feel so at ease, then made her way to the venue to ensure everything there was going according to plan. We had some issues with our florist and Allison was on the phone as well as working with the venue staff to adjust the florals and (hilariously) rip down and stomp on the tulle we had specifically told the vendor we didn't want (I wish there was photo or video of this because it helped me make light of a situation that normally would've really upset me). There were things we didn't even know happened that we later learned Allison handled without even concerning us. She traveled almost two hours each way and agreed to stay from the bridal party wake-up call through the very end of the sparkler sendoff and help pack things up, and all we had to cover additionally was the cost of the cheapest hotel room. Even dealing with a family emergency, Allison didn't miss a beat. One of our favorite things she did was create and post a recap video of the day on her Instagram. I was partially regretting not hiring a content creator and was so surprised and happy to see all the little moments she stitched together throughout the day that we were able to watch and share with friends and family right away! Allison also helped support me through some anxiety and drama during the planning process, and truly became like a friend. She is so sweet and such a pleasure to work with. My only regret is not reaching out to and booking her sooner! When the wedding was over, I was sad that we wouldn't be working together anymore and that we didn't spend more time using her services. We had already left her a tip, but actually ended up Venmoing her more at the end of the night because we were so impressed with how she went above and beyond. Even our friends and family still talk about how great she was and we can't thank her enough! -

Working with Allison was a dream! We connected regularly leading up to the wedding, and she was an absolute rock star in the weeks leading up, and the whole wedding weekend. Allison expertly coordinated the many aspects and vendors involved in a wedding, and went above and beyond to meet our needs and make the day perfect. She ensured all vendors were timely, went back and forth from bride to groom on the morning of, and helped us feel calm and taken care of. I couldn't imagine a better coordinator to bring all the planning and work to fruition. She even made sure all our guests got on the very last shuttle from the venue the night of our wedding to ensure all got home safely! We added on the Rehearsal dinner package which was such a relief to us and all our family, including doing the centerpieces! Allison does it all, and I highly highly recommend her, she was absolutely instrumental in ensuring our wedding day was all we dreamed of! -

Allison was absolutely crucial to the success of my wedding day. She was on point, organized, and so enjoyable to be around! We had so many laughs that day and any mishaps that happened I found out afterwards because Allison had taken care of it before I got a chance to see it!
Allison's absolutely amazing! Best investment I made on my wedding day by far!
