    Oheka Castle Wedding

    Teresa was extremely helpful in ensuring all the details of our dream wedding came to life. This is the second wedding in our family that she has been a part of and we will most certainly be using her again. Having her in your corner allows for you and your guests to enjoy the day without any headaches.

    An organized QUEEN

    Theresa really helped me set my priorities for this wedding. We reviewed the things that mattered most, where I was and was not willing to compromise, and helped me get creative with how we'd bring my very specific vision to life. I wanted whimsical, romantic, gothic vibes -- and it may have seemed daunting to someone else but Theresa understood and definitely EXECUTED. I am big on ideas and creativity, but very disorganized, Theresa was on top of making sure all my vendors were organized, my day of plan was ready to go, and that no detail was missed in the lead up or day of, so I could focus on enjoying my wedding with my husband, friends and family. I genuinely enjoyed working with Theresa and her team and couldn't imagine my day going as perfect as it did without her.

    Saved The Day

    Teresa went above and beyond in every aspect. From curling my bridesmaids hair, sewing people into dresses, coordinating with every vendor, calming me down before walking down the aisle - no task was too small. Truly could not have had the wedding we did without her help. The timeline she provided was outstanding and the attention to detail amazing. We were able to enjoy our day and not worry about the hiccups behind the scenes. 10/10 recommend!

    Amazing party planner, organized and attentive

    Teresa was the MVP of our wedding!! We did our wedding at Hempstead House at Sandspoint Preserve. She came highly recommended from the venue and we booked her as a day of planner. Prior to the wedding, she meticulously helped us with the schedule and coordination of all our vendors. There is no way we could have done this without her. Every single detail was flawless and she took all the pieces we had been working on for a year and put them together to form the perfect puzzle. On the day of, she was on top of every single detail and took incredible care of us. She made sure everything ran according to schedule. I would recommend her to anyone looking to have a wedding. I didn’t realize all the different nuances until the day of and this wouldn’t have been possible without her.

    We could not have hosted such an outstanding event without Above All Events

    We could not have hosted such an outstanding event without Above All Events. The attention to detail was impeccable, which means everything! We could not have been more thrilled with the outcome. Theresa worked with us to ensure she understood my daughter's vision and worked with each vendor to ensure the vision was realized. Priceless.

    Wedding Dream Team!!

    Teresa made all my wedding dreams a reality, she brought together every little detail and is connected to the best vendors. They were the wedding dream team and I couldn't have pulled my beautiful wedding without them. As a bride there is so much pressure on your special day, having experienced help on my side made it seamless and my wedding was amazing.

    Teresa is the best!!!

    Teresa made my evening a dream come true! I recommend her to all of our friends and colleagues. She was able to put together an engagement dinner in less than 3 weeks and it was perfect! Can’t wait to find another event to host just to have her by our side

    Amazing, exceptional, detailed

    just wanted to send you a special note and thank you for all your hard work to make Ashleigh’s vision and dream come to life… you did an amazing job until the very last minute of the wedding day. I received so many calls and texts from guests who said they have never been to a wedding like that before, just the sheer beauty of the room was stunning, the flowers, Ashleigh and Dennis’s table, the wall, the dance floor, tables 1 & 2, I can go on and on but most importantly ALL the tiny little details were just incredible. You were amazing!!! I just want to shout out a few things that stood out ; I thought Allison was amazing, she hustled all night and worked her butt off she had everyone doing and being where they had to be and anything we asked her for she was on it like lightning. One of the girls said to tell you their shuttle driver to the Gardens was exceptional, he was very attentive and nice, The guys who put the flowers together to make the room come alive, kudos to them. And then there was you, from the moment you walked in the bridal suite you were on it!!! You once again had every detail covered, and I saw you all night at the reception working your butt off making sure everything went just as we all visioned. It was a wedding no one will ever forget…So in ending THANK YOU THANK YOU THANKYOU!!!!

    Amazing! Would Recommend to all brides out there!

    Alyson from Above All Events was such a pleasure to work with! We worked with her the month of our wedding, and she was so on-it yet easy going making the whole process FUN and a breeze for us. From vendor confirmations and suggestions to providing any last minute needs, Alyson was there to help us every step of the way. Would HIGHLY recommend!

    Seamlessly Perfect

    Absolutely!I will say it again! It was seamlessly perfect and truly couldn't ask for anything better! They really made sure all of the little things counted and stuck out. Nothing was missed and you really had 1 of a kind pieces that won't be at anyone else's wedding

    Absolutely amazing experience!

    Where do I begin? Alyson was hands down, the most amazing person I've ever worked with. We had less than 9 months to plan our wedding and she just went above and beyond with every detail, no matter how small, to make sure we were taken care of. For those of you who have never planned a wedding before, the stress can seem outrageously overwhelming at times, but having someone like Alyson help ease those stresses makes a world of a difference. I honestly don't think I would have survived this entire process without her. She's an expert at her craft, is attentive to your wants and needs and knows the industry so well that you can rest assured she always has your best interests at heart.

    Alyson, and Above All Events in general, are the definition of perfection. The work ethic and attention to detail is second to none and you can feel the passion behind everything they do; their main goal really is to make your dream and vision come to life.

    I couldn't be more grateful or thankful for all Alyson has done. She played such an intricate part in making our day so special and it wouldn't have been the same without her. We've had so many of our guests reach out to us to comment on how flawless and amazing the entire day was. They simply can't get over it. I will be recommending Alyson and Above All Events to anyone and everyone in my life and will most definitely be using her/them as much as possible in the future!

    Beyond the best experience of my life

    I honestly don't even know where to start. It actually brings tears to my eyes as I get ready to write this (and I'm the groom). It could not have been a more perfect day and it’s all because of Alyson. Danielle and I greatly appreciated her expertise and professionalism. There is no way we could of done this without Alyson, and we are so grateful that she played such an intricate part in the best day of our lives. The way she alleviated all the stress that most people speak about as the process goes along, and the days before our wedding day approached, was incredible.

    Alyson spent countless hours with Danielle and I. She walked us through every step of the process so we knew what to expect. Our venue was in NJ and, Aly took numerous car rides with us to all meetings with the Venue. She sat in hours of traffic with us to make sure everything was perfect. That's what you get when you work with Alyson and AboveAllEvents. Nothing short of perfect. Aly also introduced us to all of our vendors. Her connections she has made in the industry made decisions for Danielle and I to make extremely easy. She came to every appointment with us. She went over in length all the details. She was always accessible and available for us. We basically gave Aly our vision and she brought it to life. When I walked into the venue after we had finished our pictures and first look, I almost fell to my knees. The room was breathtaking. It was beyond anything I thought it would look like. It was so perfect and so intimate. The attention to detail was unbelievable. The Ceremony, the reception, and everything in between from pictures to the band far exceeded anything Danielle and I imagined.

    As the days have passed since our wedding day, and we are sad it’s over, the memories we have from that night will be with us forever. We have those memories because of Alyson. All of our guests have reached out to us since and were in awe of everything. I will recommend Alyson and AboveAllEvents to all friends, family, and co-workers. Alyson is everything you need and more.

    Above All Events goes Above and Beyond

    I hired Alyson and Above All Events, based on a recommendation from my soon to be cousin (at the time). In other words, she basically told me I would be an idiot not to hire Alyson and she was right!
    I knew I needed someone, specifically, to help keep me sane. Above All events was WORTH. EVERY. PENNY.
    My first phone call with Alyson, before I booked, was extremely thorough. At this point I didn’t have a venue or date. Yet, she still took the time to go over all my visions and my preliminary budget – what would work and what wouldn’t. Alyson will never fluff anything – you will always get REAL, true, honest advice.
    Before the “month-of” started, Alyson had been there to answer EVERY little ridiculous question... and I mean ridiculous! Throughout the process, Alyson played many roles. She was my planner, my friend, my therapist, and the one who told me I was crazy and to take it down a notch when needed. – Being one of the most indecisive people on the planet Alyson pretty much made all my decisions – Big or little.
    When it came time do our initial meet, she agreed to do it at my venue and trek out to NYC in the middle of rush hour. She came fully loaded with every question, idea, concern, vision that I was too excited to remember about. She remained in contact with every one of my vendors and took 5 million phone calls with my photographer to figure out the best first look location for us.
    Alyson goes above and beyond! She always had my best interest at heart, trying to give me tips and tricks to save me money wherever I could. When she didn’t hear from me for a few days she would check in to make sure everything was going smoothly, and more importantly, I was still breathing. To name a few – Day of, she juggled my driver getting stuck in traffic, guests in the lobby as I was walking down for my first look, my groomsman losing a tie, ripping my veil, and bustling my 27 points. To say she was a life-saver would be an understatement.
    If you’re questioning hiring Above All Events, DO IT! I promise, you won’t regret it!

    The most incredible wedding planners ever - hire them right NOW.

    Alyson was the most incredible planner, and we would recommend her, and Teresa, to absolutely everyone. Not only was she a pleasure to work with (so sweet and easy going), but her expertise and attention to detail were impeccable. She guided us through every step of the wedding planning process, and especially with bringing in a tent to a venue with lighting and deco, it wasn’t an easy task. Alyson managed all of the vendors with ease. We were the most relaxed on the day of the wedding knowing everything was taken care of. She truly cared about our families and every aspect of the wedding, and that is very hard to find in this industry. Teresa was also incredible. She came on the day of to help with everything and was beyond calming and detail oriented. They both treated our wedding like it was their own, and we can’t thank them enough for that. If you’re looking for a team that will be by your side from the start and really see your wedding through to the end, and CARE about it, then definitely go with Above All Events. No task was ever too small for them, and they really coordinated everything as big as the venue all the way down to hair and makeup. Everyone kept saying that our wedding was the best wedding they’ve ever been to, and we really attribute a lot of that to them. We have already recommended Above All Events to two of our friends that just got engaged and we will continue to recommend them to everyone because they were just that amazing. We are over the moon!!!

    Teresa, you are a gem ! It was a pleasure to have your help and day of coordination on Samantha's wedding day to her groom, Hamilton. You made everything gel, seamlessly. Mark and I truly were relaxed, had fun, and never stopped smiling. Please tell Taylor what a help she was also. Such an excellent, professional job. Please stay in touch. M&M

    I don't even know where to begin with writing a review for Alyson and the Above All Events team. Alyson gave me the wedding I've always dreamed of since I was a little girl. She made the process fun, rather than stressful - and her knowledge of wedding planning was a godsend. Alyson helped keep me on track, never questioned my vision, and instead thought of creative ways to bring my vision to life times 1000. Looking back, I don't know if I could have done it without her. From everything from invitations, to standing with us before we were called out for the reception - she was there to help EVERY step of the way. She really listened to our ideas, and brought them to life for us, with little to no work on our end. I'll be forever grateful for the amount of behind the scenes work Alyson and her team put in. She was always one step ahead and anticipated all of our needs. I could not have done it without her. Alyson and her team work miracles! I don't even consider her a vendor, but more like a friend - for the love and support she gave throughout the entire process. I could not recommend Above All Events enough to anyone looking for a planner!!

    Alyson was such a dream to work with! She was incredibly helpful in the final few months of my wedding planning, getting everything organized, and making sure the day went so smoothly! She is very professional, approachable, and just such a pleasure to have had on the day of our wedding. SO happy we went with Above All Events, and I'm so happy Alyson was a part of the big day! Thank you a million times!

    Teresa understands her clients & their ideas of what they envision but steps it up and knocks it out of the park with her creativity. Everything a class act. Best decision we made of the entire wedding process. Above All events took care of everything which allowed us to actually enjoy the wedding. Because of Teresa and crew, it was the most amazing and enjoyable wedding. Our guests are still sending us notes about how beautiful and elegant. They were always available, stayed within budget,but still was able to deliver a home run. Our daughter's wedding was suppose to be outdoors and the weather did not cooperate, Above All Events staff pulled together a breath taking ceremony indoors all within a few hours. All they said was trust us and we did!!!! You should trust them for they WILL NOT disappoint. Thank you for making Lauren and Bryan's dream wedding become not a dream but the most incredible, wonderful, fun, and by far most wonderful wedding I have ever attended.

    The greatest decision we ever made was working with Alyson of Above All Events! In the words of a previous review: Alyson absolutely shines in all the areas of wedding planning and is simply an all around amazing person. Her talent in orchestrating every single detail, her creativity, exquisite taste, unflappable flexibility, her graceful, tactful way of dealing with all vendors, family, bridal party and, yes, me, the detail driven, perfectionist bride! I cannot recommend Alyson highly enough. NO ONE else could’ve been greater to work with! From our first phone call, Alyson was invested in our wedding. Other wedding planners I spoke with made me feel like a bride, Alyson made me feel like the ONLY bride.

    Through the incredibly detailed planning, Alyson made sure our day was perfect. Any tiny mishaps that aren’t anticipated (they DO happen!) disappear with her magic wand. For example, I had danced so much that my long flowing hair needed to be pulled back! I was about to take make a pony tail - Alyson sat me down, pulled out some bobby pins, and in minutes my hair was in a fabulous updo. So many of my guests commented on my hair and thought a stylist “transformed” me into my new look - sounds so glamorous, but if they only knew! Truth is, I really couldn’t have felt more beautiful! It’s the millions of little details, similar to these, that even the most detail oriented brides don’t anticipate - this is where Alyson comes in and makes even a perfectionist say “WOW”!

    I could go on and on and give endless examples of what Alyson did to make our day special - and am happy to give my personal recommendation via email or phone to any bride to be!

    I’m so extremely grateful and have such an incredibly full heart - our day would have NOT been the same without Alyson! She brought our wedding to another level - wedding of the century - simply put, ABOVE ALL EVENTS!

    With love and endless appreciation,
    Kristen and Austin

    Look no further! We are so thrilled that we chose Alyson of Above All Events! She absolutely shines in all the areas that matter to us: her talent in orchestrating every single detail, her creativity, her exquisite taste, unflappable flexibility, her graceful, tactful way of dealing with all vendors, family, bridal party and, yes, me, the demanding- nervous- excited- emotional mother of the bride! I can not recommend Alyson highly enough. We worked with her partner Teresa also on the day of the wedding as one covered the venue and the other the church and off site photos. They coordinated everything seamlessly, flawlessly and our daughter's day was spectacular!
