Absolutely amazing!

We have nothing but great things to say about Lisa. We hired her as a partial planner, and she went above and beyond to make our wedding truly the best day ever (and this was at our own DIY venue in the middle of nowhere). Every time we met with her, she was prepared with questions, to-do items, and a timeline. She was extremely communicative, especially as the wedding day got closer. Lisa helped us find phenomenal vendors such as catering, rentals, and cheaper insurance. For the vendors we found on our own, she made sure to be in contact with them prior to and day of, and be the main point of contact. Lisa and her team (including her husband who was a huge help) were wonderful day of. They made sure every detail that was asked for was present, everything was in place, and that we were happy. They communicated very well with each other as a team, and with us and the vendors. Looking back they are one of the key decisions that made our wedding a success and we wouldn't hesitate to hire them again (if we ever had another wedding, which we won't). Thank you Elegant Affairs!!

Smooth Operator

Can't thank Lisa enough for all her assistance throughout the process. I truly believe our special day went smooth and without a hitch because of her. Lisa is top notch; she was incredibly easy to work with, thoughtful, pro-active and a genuine Pro. Our experience couldn't have been any better. We highly recommend Lisa for hire.
