Bliss Events AZ and Shannon were awesome!

We hired Bliss Events AZ for the “month of” option for a wedding coordinator and worked with Shannon. She was so helpful to us and available to answer questions and provide advice even in advance of the month before the wedding. We were so grateful to be able to turn everything over to her and not have to stress about ANYTHING during the lead up to the wedding. Because of Shannon we were able to fully enjoy and be present for our wedding day. She worked seamlessly with our caterer and equipment supplier, cake baker, florist, photographer, DJ, venue manager, and bar services. She was able to review our contracts to make sure that they were providing the agreed upon services as well. Shannon is AWESOME and we recommend her and Bliss Events AZ 100% and without reservation. She is a joy to work with and coming out of the wedding we also have a new friend in her.

Very reliable and communicative.

Shannon helped make my Son’s wedding a perfect, stress-free and memorable celebration.
Shannon and her team made sure that cocktail hour was set up quickly and ran very smoothly so all the guests could really enjoy themselves. She made sure everything to the tiniest detail was what we wanted and did a fantastic job communicating and checking in with me. I would absolutely recommend booking her and her team for your event!
