Highly recommend Alyssa and her team

We chose Alyssa's Day of Coordination Package and found it to be exactly what we needed. She and Ariana went above and beyond for us! The check in meetings prior to the wedding were very thorough and gave us confidence that the day would run smoothly. Alyssa's assistant, Ariana, ran our rehearsal, and she truly helped us to understand what we would be doing on the wedding day. The communication on the day of was great! She was constantly checking in on my fiancé and I to make sure we were happy with how the day was playing out. We struggled with one of our vendors not listening to us on the day of the wedding, and Alyssa resolved the issue perfectly. We are very thankful to her and Ariana for making our day less stressful! I'd highly recommend hiring Alyssa and her team to coordinate your wedding!

Smooth wedding planning experience

After speaking with a few wedding planners recommended by our venue, we really liked our conversation with Briana and the partial planning package value was the best we saw across other vendors. Briana met with us virtually almost once a month leading up to our wedding including two in person venue walkthroughs and a visit to Encore Rentals to pick out our table settings. We really appreciated Briana’s vendor and timeline recommendations and felt like we were in confident and capable hands since the beginning. On the day of, everything came together very seamlessly. We had a lot of personal items for set up and it all worked out how we had envisioned!

Thanks to their incredible organization and attention to detail, they took all the stress off our shoulders, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy every moment. Everything ran seamlessly from start to finish. We cannot recommend them highly enough!

The best of the best

Alyssa and Ariana were truly the dream team for our wedding! From the very beginning, Alyssa helped us feel completely at ease with all of the coordination leading up to the big day. As a Type A bride, it meant everything to know that she had every detail handled and nothing was slipping through the cracks. Her organization, communication, and calm confidence made the entire planning process so much smoother and more enjoyable. On the wedding day, Ariana stepped in as our day-of coordinator, and we truly could not have been more grateful for her. She was incredible! We felt so relaxed throughout the entire day because we knew Ariana had everything under control. So many of our guests commented on how amazing she was and how seamlessly everything flowed. We are beyond thankful for Alyssa and Ariana and cannot recommend them enough!

The Kentopps 10/17/25

If we could give more than 5 stars we would! From day 1, Alyssa was there to help us with the overwhelming wedding coordination process. Alyssa was always available for a quick email or text and never left any questions go unanswered. She reached out to vendors and got contracts to us in a timey manner and even compared quotes for similar services. We did a walk through prior to the wedding which really helped us get a hands on visual of the wedding set up. Her expertise in planning and coordination helped ease my stress, especially in the few months leading up to the big day. When the wedding came, I truly had nothing to worry about as she and her team were on site from set up to tear down. They focused on the little things that can often be forgotten, especially the day of the wedding. She made sure the timeline was executed perfectly, was the main contact for vendors and even ensured we had pens ready to sign the marriage license. I cannot thank Alyssa and her team enough for everything she did for our special day.

Flawless Experience with Alyssa Bray Events

We worked with Alyssa of Alyssa Bray Events for our wedding at AutoCamp Russian River, and we could not have imagined a better experience. From start to finish, Alyssa was an absolute dream to work with.

From the very beginning, she made communication so easy. She was always friendly, responsive, and incredibly organized. Truly just an email or text away whenever we had questions. Her preferred vendor list was a lifesaver, and she had great relationships with everyone involved. Thanks to her, we were consistently ahead of schedule with planning and booking, which made the entire process feel calm and manageable instead of stressful.

Alyssa went above and beyond in so many ways. She took time out of a camping trip with her family to meet us for our final site visit, helped get everything perfectly set up for our welcome party while we spent time with our guests, and handled every wedding-day detail so seamlessly that if there were any hiccups, we knew nothing about them. Everything turned out not just perfect, but even better than we could have imagined.

Her personality made the whole experience even more special. She is warm, supportive, on top of things, and always making us feel taken care of. We genuinely miss our monthly check-ins with her!

We chose the Partial Planning Package, and it was absolutely worth it. It kept us organized, ahead of deadlines, and gave us the joy of really getting to know Alyssa throughout the year. We cannot recommend her enough to any couple, truly anyone who wants their wedding planning to feel smooth, supported, and stress-free. (And please be nice to her! She deserves it!)

Alyssa, thank you so much for everything. You helped make our wedding unforgettable.

Couldn’t Have Done It Without Briana

We’re looking back on our wedding weekend feeling so grateful, and Briana was such a huge part of that. She was calm, organized, and always one step ahead — making everything feel seamless and easy for us. We fully trusted her, and because of that, we got to be completely present and enjoy the day.

Our families couldn’t stop saying how wonderful she was and how smoothly everything flowed. Briana handled every detail with so much care, patience, and professionalism — and even saved us during our dip practice!

We’re endlessly thankful for her warmth, precision, and heart. Having her as our planner made the whole experience so much more enjoyable, and we truly can’t recommend her enough.

Go hire alyssa!

As a Type A bride, I needed someone even more organized and detail-oriented than me — and Alyssa blew me away! Our entire weekend ran smoothly, and we were on time (or early!) for everything. I felt zero stress knowing she had it all handled. On top of that, her fees are so reasonable. Truly couldn’t have asked for a better planner — worth every penny and more!

Highly recommend!!

We loved working with Briana and would highly recommend her and the AB events team to any future brides in the area. She was so great and made the day run smoothly.

We had started officially working with her 90 days out but she was very helpful in providing vendor recommendations and answering questions prior to the 90 days out. She helped keep our planning on track and highlight key details that we needed to be thinking about. The month of she had handled all vendor coordination and timeline. It was so helpful and a weight lifted off our shoulders!

Thanks again Briana!!

Exceptional Wedding Planner

Alyssa was an absolutely exceptional wedding planner. In full disclosure, I probably wouldn’t have hired a wedding planner if my venue hadn’t required it but holy wow am I glad that I did. Alyssa seamlessly guided me through not only all of the expectations and requirements, but gave logical budget, friendly and exceptional recommendations through every stage of the journey. On the day of the wedding, she was present, efficient, a new, exactly what to do with each of the vendors as well as our family members. She is an exceptional human being, as well as an exceptional professional. I would recommend her with every ounce of my being, especially to brides who perhaps are a bit reticent on getting one. Alyssa went so far above and beyond my expectations of exceptional wedding planning I cannot recommend her highly enough.
