Stargazer Weddings provided day of planning and coordination. Although I planned the wedding, Stargazer provided valuable wedding planning input in the weeks before the wedding. The week before, when I needed a new plan for a cake, Stargazer was right there and saved me and my dessert debacle. The day of, they were in the forefront making sure each detail was how I wanted it so I could relax, be a bride and enjoy my day! I would advise anyone to use Stargazer Weddings!

Ashley was super helpful when we were planning our wedding, even though I live in Wisconsin. She and I had emailed one another back and forth plenty of times sharing ideas, and we also had conversations over the phone. When it came time to actually meeting, 2 days before our wedding, she helped with everything I needed help with. She ran to the stores buying some last minute decorations for us, helped me with decorating, and also gave me advice for our wedding planning. Her ideas and advice became so comforting to me. When it came to the day-of, she became our life saver! She did everything for me that I needed help with such as lacing my dress, driving me to my husband to get pictures taken, and even getting all the guys ready for the ceremony. I honestly don't know what I would have done without Ashley, especially on the day-of. I know I couldn't have done this alone. I would recommend Ashley to anyone!

Ashley of Stargazer Weddings was a true gem! Us brides and husbands-to-be spend so much time, money and energy into planning the details we want, why not have Ashley deal with the things we don't want to deal with right? We kept hearing couples tell us they regret not hiring 2 types of vendors, a videographer and a rehearsal/wedding day-of coordinator. We did both! We are so grateful we did, no regrets! What I'm most grateful for is that we hired the right person, Ashley! I interviewed her and another team. I knew Ashley had the job after she spoke to me for about 5 minutes. She is detail oriented, responsive, organized, caring and energetic! What I love most about Ashley is that she is reliable and not even close to burnt out. Her enthusiasm inspires me! Not only is she affordable, she offers top quality service!

Ashley Lacer was an amazing wedding planner! She really listened to my vision for my wedding and helped me to find the right vendors for me. Ashley was also considerate of my budget, which was really important to me and my finance.

Ashley went above and beyond in last couple of days before the wedding, including picking up the dance floor and my wedding dress! She was very helpful on the day to make sure things flowed smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a thing.

I would recommend her to any and every bride. Ashley's dedication to making your day special is incredible and, without her support, I wouldn't have had my perfect day. She is a special wedding planner and any bride would be lucky to have her :)

Our wedding day was absolutely amazing!! From the wonderful vendors that we were blessed to work with to the seamless timeline of the days events, Ashley and Melissa of Stargazer Weddings made our perfect day come to life.

When my husband and I got engaged one of my first phone calls was to Ashley, my best friend, matron of honor, and go to person for all things wedding related. I think she was almost as excited as I was!! Her recommendations for vendors were always on point and never dissapointed. She was there to help with anything and everything. I couldn't imagine our special day with out her :) Melissa was also fantastic to work with and took care of all of our "day-of" preparations. If there was a problem or mishap on our wedding day no one knew it becuase she was there taking care of everything.

Stargazer Weddings made it easy for my husband, myself, and both of our families to relax and just enjoy the day. They are great to work with and I couldn't thank them enough for all of their help!

Ashley with Stargazer Weddings was fantastic to work with! She guided me through the wedding planning process, kept me on track with my to-do list, answered every little question of mine and made the planning process so much easier! She was professional, organized and on top of every detail. Talking with her was like talking with an old friend. Knowing I had her there on the day of my wedding meant that my actual wedding day could be about my husband and me. It was a stress free day and I didn't have to worry about a thing knowing that Ashley was there to take care of any detail that came up. It was just awesome how smoothly the day went! It truly let me and my husband have the wedding day of our dreams and enjoy every moment of it. For that, Ashley's services were worth so much more than any amount of money we could have paid her. Thank you for everything Ashley!

We originally thought we could plan our entire wedding ourselves. But as the day grew nearer we started to think that having a wedding planner handle things on the day of would be best. We attended an open house at the venue where we would be married. That is when we meet Ashley from Stargazer Weddings.

It became so evident on our wedding day that I didn't have a single worry in the world other than to enjoy our day, and have fun, and to be with people we love. We enjoyed our day SO much; and never once felt stressed. But I know that we felt this way because Ashley meticulously took care of all the details and fielded all the questions.

Hiring Ashley as our wedding coordinator was the best investment.... after all, you spent so much on your wedding. You better enjoy it to the fullest without any stress. :)

We met with Ashley to give her an idea of what we had in mind for our wedding. Our main hope was to have a relatively stress-free wedding day so that we could focus on our vows and enjoy the time we had with our guests.

With Ashley as our planner, this goal was met.

The planning:

We emailed Ashley often to ask questions. Ashley also acted as the liaison between us and some of our vendors. Whenever we had a question for one of the vendors, Ashley contacted them and quickly got back to us with an answer. One of our friends helped out with the cake, and Ashley worked well with them her as well.

Ashley responded to all emails very promptly. (She is also available by phone.) We were in contact with her constantly throughout the last months of our planning. She kept us on track with what we needed to be working on. She is attentive, professional, open to feedback, and easy to work with.

A month before the wedding, we handed all vendor contact information over to Ashley and she took it from there. She confirmed with them all and made sure that all details were taken care of. We didn’t have to worry about the vendors from then on.

We thought that we would be really busy the week before the wedding, but since Ashley was taking care of all of the details, we didn’t have anything else to do besides enjoy time with our guests who were arriving from out-of-town.

The day of the wedding:

Ashley created a Timeline for the day of the wedding. we had a copy of the Timeline, but didn’t look at it at all. Ashley and her team took care of all of the logistics, everything ran smoothly, and I was able to enjoy the day without thinking about vendors, details, or timing. I was able to focus on my vows and enjoy the company of my friends and family.

Overall, without Ashley, our wedding planning process and wedding day would have been very different and, I imagine, much more stressful. Hiring Ashley was the best decision we made and the best money we spent. My wife and I would recommend Ashley and Stargazer Weddings to anyone!

Ashley was my wedding planner and I absolutely do not know what I would have done without her. When we first met, I had already done quite a bit of the planning myself- I just thought I needed help putting it all together and handling the vendors. She managed the entire day beautifully, and we simply could not have been free to enjoy our wedding without all her hard work. She was there for everything! As a bonus, she recommended our dj, who was excellent. Our guests are still commenting about how much fun they had at our wedding and how smoothly everything went. Ashley was so easy to work with and really went the extra mile to make sure everything was just as we wanted it to be and saw to it that we didn't have to stress about anything the weekend of our wedding.

Ashley was fantastic! I was a little hesitant at first to spend the additional money on a wedding coordinator but it was definitely well worth it. Ashley took care of all the details for the day and let me truly enjoy my wedding. It was just perfect. She was easy to communicate with always responded promptly to questions and recommended vendors. She was willing to do whatever was needed to make the day run smoothly. I would use her again in a second for any type of event planning.

Ashley is wonderful!!! She is attentive to detail, personable, and professional. We felt from day one that she could help us achieve just what we were looking for and within our budget. She was always full of ideas and responsive to every little detail that came up. The day of the wedding was so relaxing and fun, I didn't have to worry about anything, because I knew whatever came up... Ashley would handle it! Our wedding day could not have been more perfect!!!

Hiring Ashley was the best decision that we made for the wedding. Working with her is like having your best friend care about all your wedding details, never get tired of the little decisions, and help you think through whatever tricky situations may come up. She is thorough, responsive, and 100% professional. She even came to the ceremony dressed in the wedding colors (which was noticed by all of my bridesmaids!) - a little thing, but showed the attention she paid to our wedding. She cared that our wedding was special for us. Her recommendations for vendors were spot on - always in our budget and amazingly professional. To top it off, we planned the wedding from 1700 miles away, a task that wouldn't have been accomplished without Ashley's help. She was always available for a call, text, or email. She called and followed up with all of our vendors for initial meetings and as the wedding date approached. In short, she is great.

Ashley was a godsend. From the very beginning she was always available to answer questions or give ideas. I loved that she always wanted my wedding, I never felt as if she was trying to push into a decision; rather, she always wanted to work with me to make sure I had the wedding that I always wanted. On the day of the wedding, if anything went wrong, and I'm sure it did, she never let on. She was flawless and my wedding would not have gone as well as it did if she wasn't there. Ashley is always friendly, always happy to see you, and always has an idea when you need one.

Ashley was very helpful with making sure I got the perfect photographer. She even was able to negotiate a better price for me. Along with helping with my photographer, she was always very informative about any questions I had.

Ashley did such a wonderful job and we were thrilled to have her at every turn. Thanks for all your hard work & attention to detail. She made me feel so comfortable on the big day! I was stressed waking up early to all the things that had to happen, but when she showed up 5 min early and knew exactly what do to and how to do it, well I visibly relaxed and was able to start to really enjoy. I told my mom 'I am so happy Ashley is in charge now!' In the beginning my family was not sure why I was hiring a coordinator, saying 'everything is already done', but at the end of the wedding all said we could not have done it without her and her services were worth every penny and more.

At first I thought I could do the whole wedding alone, thinking I came this far why hire on someone else to make my dream day come true. I found Ashley on craigslist, she is truly wonderful!!

My wedding day turned out amazing, I was able to sit back and relax, take everything in while she did everything.

First thing I want to say... I thought I didn't need a wedding planner... I was so completely wrong! Ashley was a major contributor, actually the key ontributor to my wedding day being so wonderful. I would not have been able to pull off the wedding with out her!

Ashley did an absolutely amazing job during my wedding. She was there for the rehearsal to make sure everyone knew what they were supposed to do, where they were supposed to stand, start, and finish. She also spent all morning (the day of the wedding) setting up the reception site. It looked wonderful! And she did it mostly by herself, setting up a reception site for 200+ people! My florist Lucinda Clares Floral Design helped her a lot also.

There were several issues that arose during my reception including the stereo equipment not working. We didn't hire a DJ and instead had put together our own music on an iPod. She was able to quickly get the problem resolved before by husband and I even arrived at our reception. Later in the evening the microphone stopped working, Ashley again was able to find a quick alternative and we barely noticed.

My parents could not stop raving the next day about how wonderful it was that they were able to dance, relax, and visit the night away, because Ashley was there taking care of all the details. Infact that's what she is best at, the details! Though Ashley later told me that she had a busy night at my reception 'putting out little fires', nobody noticed! On top of that she didn't portray being stressed whatsoever. She was also very calm, cool, and collected.

Ashley is another person that made my wedding day spectacular! She is very talented and effiecent. I highly recommend her for every bride regardless of your budget and the services you want. She is very flexible and is there to help with everything from booking vendors and putting everything together for you to doing as little as being there for your big day to make sure everything runs smoothly. She works around what you want and pays attention to all the details. That's really what makes her shine in this business! Considering all of the people I worked with on my wedding, Ashley was the best!
