MEET ALYSSA
I’ve seen what couples find out
after they’ve signed.
After 10 years and more than 500 weddings, I know how much a starting price can leave out. The rentals. The vendor rules. Who’s setting up—and who’s cleaning up.
I built these tools to help you ask the questions earlier, while you still have time to choose differently.
You’re still planning your wedding.
You don’t have to figure it all out alone.
“…attention to detail, creative thinking, and genuine professionalism and customer service.”
