Awesome Planner = Awesome Wedding

We're so thankful we had Christina McLachlan as our wedding planner. From our very first meeting, we got along seamlessly. She got to know us as individuals and as a couple to help create the wedding day of our dreams. There is no way we could have done it without her. To organize all the vendors, rentals, venue, timelines, etc. is so overwhelming, but she made it look easy! Not only did we get a spectacular coordinator, but we gained a true friend. Christina is somebody you can trust and count on to get the job done. We hold her near and dear to our heart. Because of her, we had a BALLER wedding and made memories that will last a lifetime.

You always hear about how stressful weddings can be, and Allanah and Hello Productions helped us make sure that wasn't the case for us.

We could not have asked for a better wedding, and we could not have done it without our planner Allanah.

We began working with her about a year-or-so before our eventual wedding date, and she helped us every step of the way, from choosing a venue and date, to picking our vendors, to making sure everything went smoothly the day of. We were planning our wedding from out-of-state, so we couldn't be there for most of the meetings and planning, and she ensured that wasn't ever an issue. We ended up extremely happy and impressed with all of our vendors, and that was thanks to Allanah for helping connect us to the folks that would work best for our vision within our budget.

We touched base here and there over the first few months, but as we approached our wedding date is when it really became apparent to us just how helpful Allanah was. She came with us to our tasting, helped us with coordination in the leadup, and truly worked her magic on the day-of.

We were not stressed in the least in the leadup to our wedding, and she was making sure everything was working behind the scenes. Allanah was with us the entire wedding day making sure everything was running smoothly with the venue and the vendors. We had rain on the day of our wedding, and Allanah made sure the venue pivoted. She had everything adjusted seamlessly, and it ended up being a perfect day.

You always hear about how stressful weddings can be, and we're thankful that wasn't the case for us.

Best Event Planners Out There - Hands Down!

We contracted Ashley Kurkiewicz with Hello Productions for the "Final Details & Day-Of Wedding Coordinator" package and it was one of the best choices we made for our 150-guest wedding. Ashley and her team went above and beyond to make sure that everything ran smoothly behind the scenes. We even had guests comment on how amazing they were. Ashley and her team's expertise was so very much appreciated and allowed us to make decisions without thinking twice, knowing that they have our best interests in mind. We would highly recommend their services to anyone.

Christina Planned Our Dream Wedding!

We worked with Christina McLachlan as our wedding planner, and simply put, she was amazing! Our wedding would not have happened without her. We live on the west coast, but we wanted to get married in Pittsburgh near family. Christina worked with us for about 1.5 years in total, from helping us look at venues at the very beginning, to running the whole show on our wedding day. She was always very accommodating of our time zone difference, willing to FaceTime us after we finished work (her 8pm). Also, she let us ship things to her house so we didn't have to fly everything across the country, which was so thoughtful. She helped us execute our vision for exactly what we wanted and made working with all of our vendors a breeze. Christina helped us throw an amazing wedding while staying within our budget. In the week leading up to our wedding, Christina made sure all vendors were on the same page, everything was ordered and printed, and that we knew the timelines for everything. We were able to fully experience and enjoy our wedding knowing that any problems would be taken care of. And, Christina's work speaks for itself! After our wedding, my newly-engaged cousin immediately asked for Christina's contact information and signed up to have her plan his wedding. We were so fortunate to have found Christina and highly recommend her planning services!

10/10, cannot recommend enough!

I can't say enough good things about Christina with Hello Productions and the Full Wedding Planning Package. From the beginning, she was able to take my abstract ideas and inspiration photos and bring them to life with the most inspiring, on the nose, design deck. She then took everything one step further to bring that design deck to life on my wedding day in a way the exceeded my expectations. On the day of, she made up for all the ways in which my venue was disorganized and everything went perfectly. There was a tornado warning the entire day of my wedding and Christina kept her cool in such a way that I was completely unaware of this until after the fact! Not only was she professional, creative, and organized she was also just amazing to be around. By the end of my wedding day I was so sad it was over, not just because the entire day was perfect but because that meant I wouldn't be talking to her regularly. If you are planning an out of town wedding, have a busy schedule, or just don't have family involvement in wedding planning I HIGHLY recommend Christina and her Hello Productions team.

Day of Coordinator

My husband and I booked Hello Productions for our September 2023 wedding and could not be happier with our decision. We chose the day of package and had so much support weeks leading up to our wedding. Our coordinator was Shannon Stover and she was THE BEST. Shannon and her team went above and beyond for us. We credit her for making our day as perfect as it was and can not thank them all enough!

Alyson was the best!

We had the pleasure of working with Alyson as our Day-of-Coordinator. She was such a thoughtful and calming person to have in our corner during our wedding. From convincing the bride that she really truly didn't have to worry about doing anything, to going to find pitchers to serve water when my caterers disappeared, I can't say enough good things about working with Alyson. Having her there really let us (and our parents) just focus on having a blast celebrating our wedding.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
