    Best coordinator ever!

    I don’t even know where to begin with describing how instrumental Alison was in making our wedding day so special. From the very first meeting, she was organized, knowledgeable, and so easy to talk to. She always makes you feel like your wedding is her top priority and responds so quickly to emails and texts.

    Alison went above and beyond with in-person meetings, finding vendors for rentals we needed at the reception, and putting together a detailed day-of timeline. Not only does she coordinate with your existing vendors to make sure everyone is on the same page, she also has a list of vendors she recommends and has worked with before. We hired a DJ, florist, and cake baker specifically from her vendor list and each of them were incredible.

    She is so friendly and professional and has the most calming presence on your wedding day. I truly had nothing to worry about the whole day because I knew we were in great hands. I am forever thankful to Alison for all the work she put into our wedding, the way she communicated every step of the way, and her sweet personality that made it feel like we were celebrating with a dear friend.

    If you’re going to hire a wedding coordinator, go with Alison Smith! You will not be disappointed.

    Emily + Craig, getting to know the both of you was so so much fun. Your carefree presence and Craig's sense of humor resulted in a day full of laughter. I was so impressed when I saw the two of you dancing. Flips in a full wedding gown, I shouldn't even have been surprised because I just kept learning so much about you as the day went on. I hope each day is filled with as much laughter and love as possible. -Alison

    Dedicated Planner

    I had an easy-going time working with Alison as the DJ. She kept me informed, helping to ensure I nailed the key moments. And I saw her buzzing around working hard all night. If I walked into another wedding and saw she was the planner, I would know I'd have an organized night ahead of me. Recommended!

    Alison is so easy to work with!

    Alison and I have collaborated on a couple of projects together now. She takes initiative, communicates super well, and advocates for the couples she works with! She is someone who is going to take the stress off your plate!

    Alison was amazing, helpful and so organized!

    Alison was phenomenal. We actually hired a DOC from another company and after talking with them decided it was not a great fit. Alison was a great fit. She goes above and beyond, making sure we were not feeling overwhelmed with anything the week before our wedding, contacted all of our vendors to ensure everyone was on the same page, and was ready and able to handle anything that was thrown her way on our wedding day. We are so thankful we ended up. with Alison. for our wedding day and honestly do not know how anyone plans and executes a wedding without a professional. Just pick Alison. She is great, fun, flexible, and truly amazing at what she does!

    She's Amazing!

    Alison was my saving grace for our day! She was so prompt at responding to questions I had, coordinated with all of our vendors, and made sure I didn't have anything to worry about on our big day. I can't recommend her enough.

    Lust for Life Event Planning + Wedding Design's reply:

    Thank you so much Marissa. I truly enjoyed working with you + getting to know you. Helping ease your stress was my goal + I appreciate the kind words. If you ever need somebody to keep track of the lip stick, I'm your gal!
