Hey there! My name is Alanah. I've been planning and working in events since 2017. I've planned weddings, large conferences, corporate events, family gatherings, birthday parties and more. I've worked as a wedding planner at large hotels and resorts to small local wineries. To me, every wedding is unique and I'm here to make sure your vision comes to life. I look forward to the possibility of creating your dream wedding together!

Awarded Best of Zola
Alannah helped coordinate our dream mountain wedding last summer (07/2023) at Devil's Thumb Ranch in Colorado. We ended up having a full weekend of events outside of just the wedding ceremony/reception and Alannah's attention to detail, professionalism, and follow through made each of those events possible. As a self-proclaimed "Type A Bride", I had lots of ideas and opinions on how I wanted everything planned and Alannah made sure everything turned out exactly as I had hoped! I was able to enjoy the weekend with my family, friends, and husband because I knew Alannah and her team was on top of everything. Would absolutely recommend working with Alannah in the future!

Hi! I'm Brooklyn - the owner! I'm 22 years old & happily married to my best friend, Michael. Traveling is a huge part of our lives, WDW is our happy place, & our next adventure is never far away. When I'm not at a wedding, you can find me in the flower shop or doing some *light* retail therapy. I recently graduated from KSU with a B.S. in Hospitality & Event Management. I have had the opportunity to work with some amazing couples & vendors in several states. I even spent time in FL working closely with one of the world's leading entertainment companies bringing hundreds of fairytale weddings & events to life. Now, I'm making magic of my own!

Awarded Best of Zola
When you think of your wedding, all you can hope for is nothing will go wrong, and if it does, it will be small. When you hire Brooklyn from Brooklyn Rain brides, you can rest assured that your day will be utter perfection. throughout the wedding planning process, Brooklyn was always there for me to reach out to and ask questions and give her professional suggestions. She is beyond wise for her years and knows everything a bride could ask in hand already. Even with me being in the industry Brooklyn would ask me questions leading up to the big day I didn't even know I had, she made sure I knew when and how to get my marriage license and took care of sending it back to the clerk for us. She handled getting the rings to the correct bridal party members and made sure to grab our vow books before the ceremony so we didn't have to remember them. My guests came to me after the ceremony and said it was the best ceremony they had ever seen and I couldnt agree more it had so much emotion, romance and pure magic sprinkled in and brooklyn was incredibly calm collected and well spoken capturing my husband and Is love story perfectly. I cannot recommend her services enough, not only can she officiate the most romantic ceremony ever She is also an incredible wedding coordinator and will make sure your wedding runs smoothly allowing you to have a stress free wedding day! I literally didn't have to handle a single thing on my wedding day because she was there to handle it all. She made all the difference plus she continued to come and check in in me to see how I was doing throughout the getting ready process and has the calmest nature helping me to feel ready before I walked down the aisle. not only did she handle coordination and officiating the wedding she sprinkled in some extra magic by taking some gorgeous photos throughout the day and sent them to me the morning after the wedding so I would have a little something until my professional photos arrived! I am so utterly grateful to Brooklyn for making the best day of my life utterly perfect. She may be based in Ohio, however, my wedding was in Michigan-she has traveled all over the United States to work weddings and is so worth it, so feel free to inquire about out of state travel. Anyone who is engaged, I can't say it enough, you need a Brooklyn to help guide you in your wedding planning!

From managing unexpected challenges with grace and efficiency to ensuring that both sets of parents could fully immerse themselves in the celebration free from tasks or responsibilities. Both our Mom’s had planned our siblings weddings and what a gift for them to be able to relax, be present, and truly enjoy the wedding. I have countless fond memories of Dana and her team going above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable. From tackling last-minute emergencies with poise and professionalism to seamlessly coordinating every aspect of the event, Dana's commitment to excellence was apparent in every interaction. I cannot recommend Thyme & Details, and Dana, highly enough.

At Avenue Design Studio, we began as a floral business, but quickly realized we could offer so much more to our clients. Over our 10+ years of working with couples on those special lifetime moments, we found ourselves stepping in to assist our brides and event clients with planning, vendor coordination, and overall event management. This inspired us to shift our focus and create Avenue Design Studio, a full-service event planning and design company. Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need assistance with specific aspects, we provide multiple packages and a la carte options to fit your needs. You dream it, we create it.

From start to finish working with Avenue Design Studio was a fantastic experience! I had an initial call with Chad and based on that I knew they were professionals who could bring my vision to life through floral design and day of coordination. Then they continued to provide clear and open communication throughout the planning process and were able to make suggestions as needed to advance my vision. The week of the wedding I was in contact with Morgan who would be our official day of coordinator. Morgan ended up saving the day when our bartender cancelled on us last minute; she stepped in and bartended on top of coordinating. Then she was able to work with me to donate our flowers to a women’s shelter; a cause that hits close to home for me. I cannot recommend Avenue Design Studio enough!!

Courtney and her team at Combe & Co were AMAZING! As an event planner and type A personality it was hard to turn something over to someone when you have a vision in your head of what it should look like Those fears and that anxiety were put to rest as soon as I met Courtney and her team. Her month, week and day of coordination went off without a hitch. There were hiccups as with all weddings but I never even knew about them.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even start? Liz was an incredible wedding planner from day one. My wedding was in September, and we booked Liz in August of the previous year—it was one of the best wedding planning decisions I made. It’s hard to believe she was juggling other weddings with how communicative and responsive she was. Liz spent so much time meeting with me and working on things outside of our scheduled meetings, it felt like I was her only client! Liz was always just a phone call, text, or email away for anything wedding-related. If I needed a vendor recommendation, she’d have five lined up that perfectly fit my budget and vision by the next day—and sometimes she even reached out to them for me! She was my sounding board for everything: organization, design, dealing with wedding drama, and so much more beyond what we discussed during our monthly meetings. Liz planned each monthly meeting with a specific focus, whether it was ceremony layout, décor and floral, the seating chart, alcohol planning, or other details. Each meeting was another chance to ask questions and get help with anything I was working on. In addition to planning, Liz handled all of the décor for my wedding. I rented the décor from her, and she did all the setup and tear down, making the day completely stress-free. The space looked absolutely beautiful, and I didn’t have to lift a finger! The month leading up to the wedding, we had weekly meetings to review everything we had done and finalize the little details. When it came to the wedding weekend, Liz and her assistant Sammi were amazing, supportive, and incredibly helpful. They allowed me to relax and enjoy the rehearsal and wedding, knowing everything was under control. This is only a small fraction of how essential Liz was in planning my wedding. She is truly a one-of-a-kind person and wedding planner, and it’s so inspiring to see someone who excels at their job. I couldn’t recommend her enough!!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Memories Made with Brittney Lashea at a wedding recently. I've worked in the wedding photography business for five years now, and I've seen a LOT of planners in that time. Brittney stands head and shoulders above nearly all of them! She's extremely professional, knowledgable, and experienced, and all of these things manifested in a classy, smooth-running and elegant wedding event. It went off without a hitch. As a professional, Brittney helped make my job easier in various ways, from communicating the timeline well in advance, to even setting up and posing some fun and tricky shots. There were several cases where I was afforded much more time to photograph than I'm typically allowed, which is a rare, unexpected but appreciated blessing. She gracefully coordinated and navigated the day, keeping things on-track in an extremely friendly, professional way.

Marvetta and Charity were invaluable on our wedding day! These ladies didn’t skip a beat all weekend, between their flawless communication and proactive positive attitudes, they allowed us to relax and enjoy our big day! They addressed all of our needs (some before we even thought of them ourselves!) and were simply wonderful. We highly recommend them as your wedding coordinators!

Jena is the most wonderful wedding planner and much better then we could have asked for!! She was with us from the day after we got engaged until the day after we walked down the aisle! She had everything covered. She sent us monthly items to work on with her so we still were involved in all the fun! All the vendors she set us up with were perfect for us and mirrored her professionalism. Nothing could have replaced her for our big day either! She was there to set up, coordinate all our vendors, bustle my dress and clean up after the big event. Our families and wedding party didn't have to do a thing except enjoy the weekend! She was irreplaceable! On top of all her amazing work, she is such a wonderful, kind person and makes everything about the wedding simple and easy. Even our families commented on how amazing her and her team was! She made our day a dream! Thank you, Jena and team!!

Andrea, founder of Rare Bird Collective, began her career as a creative project manager in advertising and spent over 12 years working for some of the best hospitality groups in the country. She helped open several James Beard-nominated restaurants and worked for Relais & Châteaux properties. She has worked in every capacity of events from intimate birthday celebrations to large high-profile weddings, VIP and backstage parties for internationally touring musicians to the Nobel Peace Prize Forum, and everything in between.

Working with Andrea was an absolute dream! She really understood what we wanted and knew our vision, knew what we liked, and what was going to feel the most “us”. Knowing that I didn’t have to stress about ANYTHING was the greatest gift I got out of working with Rare Bird Collective. Every detail of the design felt intentional, thoughtful, and truly, as if it was made just for us. Day of, she made sure we had everything we needed before we even thought of it and made sure we felt taken care of - in a way we weren’t even expecting! Our wedding was everything we wanted and more, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have Andrea plan such a great day for us, our families and guests! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts - we can never recommend you enough!
