On WeddingWire since 2024

Mali Makes It Happen is an event planning and design business based out of seacoast New Hampshire, serving couples across New England. We offer full-service planning and design, partial planning, and day-of-coordinator services.

"Hi, I'm Mali (pronounced Ali with an M). I'm a physician assistant and an event planner, and I am fortunate I get to pursue my two passions. That might sound like a unique combination, but both share a common thread: guiding and supporting individuals through some of the most important times of their lives. I enjoy educating clients about their options, assisting them in making informed decisions and providing unwavering support. You'll find many skills that are transferable, too. I am used to working in a dynamic environment, adapting seamlessly to challenges, and resolving issues with the highest level of integrity and professionalism. You'll find I'm extremely detail-oriented, honest, reliable, motivated, and fun - you might even catch me on the dance floor. Whether it's an elaborate celebration or an intimate gathering, I'm dedicated to creating an unforgettable experience that reflects your style and vision."

Unique to Mali Makes It Happen, clients get the benefit of:

*Custom Mali Makes It Happen planning templates with a personalized Drive to keep you organized.

*A concierge approach with 24/7 accessibility - You get my personal cell phone number and peace of mind knowing I'm only a text away.

*Undivided Attention - I intentionally limit the number of clients I take on each year to ensure I can give each event the love and attention it deserves.

I am also an all-inclusive planner who supports working with those from diverse cultural or religious backgrounds and the LGBTQIA+ community. I'm currently manifesting a Halloween wedding for 2024/2025. Additionally, I offer 10% appreciation pricing for military and healthcare professionals.

Mali is incredible ! So thankful to have worked with her!

You absolutely need to book with Mali. We feel so lucky we did. She had been recommended to us by the wedding venue, and from the first meeting I had with her, I knew she was going to be the perfect wedding planner. She was extremely personable, and right away showed genuine interest in learning how she could make the wedding day perfect. From the moment we booked her she was incredible and went above and beyond for us. For example she checked in with us prior to the agreed upon, 8 week wedding planning booking, was available at basically all hours of the day via text and call and was very quick to respond, and on the day of, helped move everything along- even advising on how to resolve difficult family situations, which was unbelievably helpful. Throughout the whole process not only was Mali extremely detail oriented, and unbiased (which was also incredibly impressive) but she was also extremely personable and caring! I really felt like she treated me as if it was her own wedding, which was extremely special. Mali is so kind and very easy to get along with! All my vendors loved her! I really feel that you would be lucky to work with her, and guarantee you that her keen attention to detail combined with her peasant nature will make a huge difference, in guaranteeing your wedding day is everything you ever wished for, and more :)

Mali for Backyard weddings!

I thought doing a backyard wedding with 125 guests would be no problem managing myself until all the details started to come to light. I am so thankful Mali was available for our big day. She created schedules, set up weekly meetings, checklists, to-dos and so much more. She organized everything so much that it made our lives way easier for the big day! I would recommend her to anyone getting married!

Look no further!

Would give 6 stars if possible! Handled countless moving pieces with grace, all while being as personable and professional as one could ask. At no point was I stressed about the logistics given Mali's meticulous preparation and attentiveness during the day-of festivities. Look no further!
