About

The warmth of sunshine has always reminded me of home. It has reminded me of the instant warmth you feel when seeing an old friend or embracing your partner. It is the warm flutter in your belly when you fall in love for the first time. It’s the goosebumps all over your body when you hear a story that moves you so greatly and deeply. It’s when you feel like the world is on your side and even the sun is cheering you on. It’s that person in your life that is always that ray of sunshine; that person who always makes you feel so special even on the days you may not. It’s the sense of peace when you make amends with someone or a situation. It’s the happiness you feel when doing what you love; especially when creating. It’s the calmness you feel when you lay your head down after a long days of work. It’s the smile on your face when a stranger compliments you or does something nice.

I believe that every love story and special life moment creates the sunniest of days - To love and to be loved is to feel the sun on both sides. What a blessing it is to be apart of these special moments and to experience these feelings with our clients.

It’s within these feelings of joy, love and light that Sunshine Events was born.

XO,

Christina

Aly is the most incredible wedding planner!

We got married in July and had Aly help us plan our wedding based on the recommendation of a family friend and it was the absolute best decision! She was so helpful in explaining every step in the planning process and keeping us on track with getting things done. Meeting with her always relieved the anxiety I had built up on my own by having her assure us we were perfectly on track. We planned our wedding in 5 months so I was constantly worried we were behind on something but Aly broke everything down for us into an easy to follow timeline and made sure everything got done on time.

During our rehearsal and on our wedding day I was so grateful for her and her team, they set up everything exactly how I imagined it! They did such an incredible job designing the reception and making the tables so beautiful. We had been warned by several friends and family members to remember not to stress the day of because something inevitably always goes wrong but with Aly at the helm literally nothing was out of place or off schedule. She checked in with me constantly in the bridal suite and made sure we had everything we needed, she made sure photos were on time, and had her team set up our second location reception venue exactly how we wanted it.

We had the wedding of our dreams thanks to Aly and I absolutely recommend her as a wedding or event planner!!

We'd be lost without them!

Christina, Aly, and the entire Sunshine team are true angels on earth. Christina helped me out as soon as I signed my contract with her 1.5 years out. She helped answer every question I had and helped look at contracts for me. Christina even helped me pick my wedding dress because I didn't want to show it to my bridesmaids!!! Christina was open to setting up check in meetings whenever I asked so that I could keep myself accountable on top of our already scheduled check ins. She also scheduled mock ups for us. It amazes me how much she is able to pick up our vision and run with it. It amazes me even more that even though she has multiple clients at once, we felt like we were her only client.

Aly was our lead planner on the day of and she also helped with the rehearsal dinner the night prior. We have a big Asian family and she navigated the language barriers FLAWLESSLY!! Aly arrived earlier than planned on our wedding day. We had a tea ceremony in the morning and even with the language barriers, she knew exactly what was going on and why things were happening. I was a deer in the headlights and she was keeping me updated all throughout! Now for our evening ceremony and reception, we were expecting rain so I was getting anxious and nervous. Aly reassured me through every second and made sure I felt comfortable no matter what the weather ends up being like. She was hyping us up for the rain!!! There were a few last minute changes that had to happen and she navigated it with such poise and positivity. As a bride, sometimes hearing "no" isn't exactly what we'd like to hear in that moment but looking back, oh boy I am so glad I listened to Aly. Our wedding was perfect and we can't thank the entire Sunshine Team enough. They helped design the space, unpack our inventory, packed up at the end (nothing was missed!), checked on us a lot, told us to breathe, ugh the list goes on. We are eternally grateful and can't wait for the next opportunity to work with them again.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
