Alyssa was such an amazing help with every step of our wedding planing process! We reached out to her with less than 6 months away from our wedding date because we decided to switch venues. She did everything so effortlessly with the little time she had which wiped away my fear of getting every thing done in time. If your thinking about booking her you definitely should! She is so organized, professional, and has a great eye when it comes to design. She is also very sweet and kind. Thanks again so much for helping us have the best wedding!

Working with Alyssa was the most important decision we made to make our wedding dreams come to life. She is extremely organized, thorough, an excellent communicator, and not afraid to go to bat for her clients. In the beginning of the planning process she provided us with many options for excellent, reputable vendors that fit my vision and was understanding and accommodating when I was indecisive or changed my mind on something. I was concerned that I had many ideas but didnt know how to make it cohesive and she made sure my vision was streamlined through all of the decisions we made. She was willing to take the reins when we needed her to, and also let us be as involved as we wanted to be. Every final decision was ran by us and she kept track of all things budget, making suggestions on how to cut costs when we wanted to, or making suggestions to allot budget to things we might not have thought of otherwise. She was quick to answer emails and set up zoom meetings or hop on phone calls (sometimes last minute), and hear us out on any concerns, and very reassuring. The wedding day had so many moving parts that we did not have to think about at all. We were able to just focus on each other and our guests. I told everybody that there was literally no way we would have been able to pull it off alone, it wouldnt have been what it was- not even close! Alyssa was also a pleasure to get to know over the year we worked with her. She was very professional but also warm, supportive, and thoughtful. We faced hardship during our year of planning and she let us know she was there for us and gave us lots of grace when we needed to take time away from planning or took longer to give responses. Our wedding was beautiful and I would recommend Alyssa to anybody looking for a planner! You wont regret it!

It is impossible to describe how grateful we are for Alyssa and everything she did to make our wedding day perfect. As soon as we got engaged we knew we needed a wedding planner to help us and take some responsibilities and we didnt have to look long to find Alyssa. Through a two year engagement, we have come to know Alyssa (and her dog Carmen) very well. We were planning a wedding across the country and Alyssa made things easy and smooth and reassured us constantly that this was going to work out well! She helped us find vendors that fit our wishes, budget, and style. Initially we met over zoom every month to every other month but as our date grew closer our meetings were more frequent as well. She was always there for our silly questions and tolerated all the times we changed our minds or couldnt make decisions. Alyssa was there for us through it all and she kept us calm and moving forward! The day of the wedding we had literally nothing to worry about, Alyssa handled everything. She made sure everything got to the venue (and looked beautiful), made sure the schedule chugged along, made sure the guests (and the bride and groom) were happy. Our day was perfect and Alyssa is a lot of the reason why :) If anything at all went wrong, we had absolutely no idea. Alyssa is truly amazing, she is professional and kind, but she is also fun, energetic, and just generally a joy to be around! She is an extraordinary wedding planner and her design for our day came together flawlessly. She knew what questions to ask to learn about us and our preferences and she listened. While she always provided her suggestions and advice as a professional, she still knew how to bring it all together to make our day feel so perfect, so personal, and 100% us! We had a perfect wedding, and that is because of Alyssa, we are so incredibly happy we found her and had the chance to work with her! We cannot recommend Alyssa and Pacific Engagements enough!

Best investment ever! I am so glad we decided to hire Pacific Engagements! Alyssa and I have known each other since college. After graduation, I watched her business flourish and I knew exactly who to call when it was my turn to walk down the aisle. I'm not a girl who dreamed about her perfect wedding, I only ever dreamed about the happily ever after part. I felt very unprepared to dive into the world of wedding planning after the engagement. Alyssa helped me feel more comfortable with all the ins and outs of wedding culture in our area today. She exuded confidence and professionalism, even with our prior relationship. She recommended some amazing vendors, met with us in person which is SO comforting, kept communication streamed lined during emails, helped keep us on track with decision-making for the big day, and never pressured us if we needed more time to think through little details or logistics. We planned an August wedding because we knew in our area it wouldn't rain that deep into summer. Of course, when the day came, it rained... Alyssa and her team didn't even bat an eye. They set up our ceremony in the rain for us anyway
