About Lavender & Rye Events

Lavender & Rye Events

Owner

Over the past 10 years, I have enjoyed helping friends & family plan many events. It was after planning my own wedding, that I realized I wanted to continue helping others create unforgettable events too! Outside of working, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our pets and my bonus daughter! I also enjoy baking, traveling, gaming, and gardening.

I have the skills & ability to help keep things organized & running smoothly before, during & after any event. I work on all types of events, from start to finish. I have worked with weddings that have a guest count of 50 or 500. I have a professional Wedding Planner certification from IAP Career College. Please check out some of my previous work!

    Marissa was amazing for my wedding day! She was very responsive and she helped me plan out my outlines and keep everything in order. My guests really liked her and said she was very communicative and informative. She is so sweet and checked on me several times throughout my wedding day making sure if I needed anything. She made my whole wedding experience so much easier and relaxed. I was able to trust her judgement and she was always very honest with her opinions. She was also organized and knew exactly what I wanted on my wedding day. She listened to what I wanted for my wedding and helped me execute it. She also helped clean up and pack up everything at the end of the night which made things so much easier for all of us. I honestly don’t know if I would have had such a smooth wedding day without her! She is amazing and definitely recommend her to everyone!!

    Marissa helped our Pirates of the Caribbean themed wedding come true in a very short amount of time! My wife and I were initially unsure about needing a coordinator for our wedding but decided just a couple months before to look for someone. Marissa answered the call and was fantastic to have for the day-of. She made sure that the timeline flowed without any issues and took all our stress away, ensuring that we were able to enjoy OUR day. Definitely worth every doubloon!

    Lavender & Rye Events was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. Their communication style was quick, calming, and wonderful throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work and value was absolutely perfect - they brought my vision to life and ensured everything ran smoothly, even with a last-minute change in weather. Marissa was the absolute best to work with, and I did not have to worry about anything on my wedding day. Everything turned out perfect, and I highly recommend Lavender & Rye Events to any couple planning their special day.

    Marissa was absolutely amazing! She helped us every step of the planning process, and even more so due to a deployment hindering availability from our end. We recommend Marissa to anyone who is getting married, who feels as though they know what they are doing or not since she has been an incredible help through it all and has been a joy to be around.
