    Allison is the absolute best event planner out there! She immediately gives you confidence that your event will goes as planned because she is dedicated, hard-working, intelligent and has an incredible amount of experience. On top of that, Allison is so much fun, outgoing and friendly. Every meeting with her was excellent - she offered amazing insight into the wedding process and kept us right on schedule. All of the vendors that we worked with completely respected her which made the entire wedding process pleasant and enjoyable. During the wedding, her team was professional and well-coordinated, and there is absolutely no way my family and I could have done this without her. She kept me calm and peaceful on my wedding day which allowed me to focus on my soon-to-be husband. Allison and her team took care of every single detail. She was absolutely amazing, and I cannot find the words to express my gratitude for all of her assistance. I give her my highest recommendation!

    I wish I could give a 10 Star review. Allison was so helpful. I don't know what we would have done without her.

    Allison was the most amazing person I have ever met. She was not only my wedding planner, but my friend. I would refer her to anyone I know. The day of the wedding she was outstanding, everything was set just like I envisioned it.

    Allison worked with us to plan our wedding, she was even pregnant the entire time. She was put on bedrest for 3 months, and even though, she was still so responsive. She worked her hardest for us regardless of situation. I am so happy we choice to go with Happily Ever After. We worked with her for almost 2 years to plan our wedding, and when the big day finally hit she was on top of everything. My family adored her, as we did also. Allisons prices are also great. She has some wonderful vendors, with great prices for her clients.

    I love Allison!!! She was my wedding goddess! Not only was she our planner but she has become a friend to us as well. She is super easy to get along with always having a positive attitude! She did an amazing job organizing our wedding down to the tee. Especially on the day of our wedding there were some crazy moments and she was able to keep everything together! She stayed throughout the whole night making sure everything ran smoothly and cleaned up at the end of the night. All in all I am soo glad to have come accross Allison, definitely recommend her to future brides who need help planning their wedding she will do an impeccable job at it!

    I was so thrilled with the services of Happily Ever After Wedding & Event Planning. Allison helped to make my wedding dreams become a reality. She was so very attentive to my needs and was there to support me every step of the way. When I had any questions or concerns she was able to answer them and reassure me when I needed advice on specific details for the wedding. She was able to set me up with amazing vendors who provided me with stellar services at very affordable prices. The day of the wedding she worked tirelessly (and stayed late) to make sure that everything flowed smoothly. She also made sure that the was cleared after the wedding and that everything was taken care of so that I got my full security deposit back within 24 hours of the wedding! Thank you so much for everything Allsion!

    Allison is truly amazing at what she does! She's our wedding lifesaver!
    We originally planned for a wedding at a castle but when we found out that this venue was going bankrupt and took all my parents money we were totally panicked and without notice or warning that they were even having this trouble. Allison worked as part time wedding planner at this castle and she ended up leaving the castle and took us with her!
    Within a week she found us a brand new venue at the SPACE NEEDLE! She knew the man who managed the wedding and events section and got us an amazing deal on the place. She also hooked us up with all her amazing vendors for pictures, DJ, and cake!
    I was truly amazed and thankful to have Allison throughout this entire wedding because without her nothing we had would have been possible. She is responsible, professional, and will work hard for you!
    We love her!

    Allison is amazing and simply the best! She is so resourceful, creative and understanding of your vision. She was able to make my perfect outdoor fairytale wedding go off without a hitch! I was able to bounce random ideas off of her and she was able to make a dream/partial picture come to life. Not a single thing was out of place, and everything turned out amazing! I wouldn’t change a single detail for the world and will continue to recommend her services to every bride for many years to come!

    Allison is so easy to work with.
    She planned our daughter's wedding.
    She has tons of great ideas, but she was also very willing to make my ideas work too.
    She is extra kind...but also very no nonsense when it comes to making everything run smoothly.
    She was at the wedding all day, but afterward friends asked if she had been there. She is very careful that ALL the attention goes to the Bride and Groom.
    I HIGHLY recommend Allison.
    I have another daughter getting close to planning a wedding.
    Allison will be the first person we call.

    Allison is amazing! As a photographer, I work with a lot of DIY weddings, as well as with other Wedding Planners. Allison's work is top notch! Plus, she's a sweet, genuine person to boot! Love this girl!

    Oh my, where do I even begin?

    I had spoken to a few wedding planners to no avail. Some were either too expensive, others didn't even return calls. I honestly felt I was doomed do plan everything as my husband was deployed. Then Allison and I met up and I instantly felt relieved.

    She called me every week (if not every day) to check up on me. She would e-mail me constantly. She would recommend different vendors that worked in our price range. She definitely helped me to not be a 'BRIDEZILLA' at all (which was a huge relief to my husband that was thousands of miles away). I was relaxed beyond belief.

    But the thing I really couldn't believe was on the day of our wedding. I saw my reception and was just blown away. She surely executed what I had envisioned. My husband was also amazed. We were able to enjoy our wedding. While many couples (who hadn't hired Allison) were busy worrying about answering vendor questions and such, we were busy dancing and laughing the night away.

    I think there is no greater gift you can get yourself on your wedding day than someone who is willing to stress out for you! Hire Allison just for that.

    Me and my husband and family were so happy with what Happily Ever After did for us. Allison was so awsome she made sure that i did not have to worry about a thing. She was so in control of the whole day. From 6 months prior to the my wedding day to the moment I left my reception she was there for me. What a awsome women she is.

    I cannot thank Alison enough for the fantastic service she provided my husband and I during the process of planning our wedding and on our special day. I had gone to 3 different wedding planners and none of them were in our price range.

    Finally I met with Alison on a casual day and meeting with her was like a breath of fresh air compared to the prior meetings. She was professional and flexible. She impressed me with her range of knowledge in the business and I could tell that she was confident with her work. This made me feel at ease and I wasted no time hiring her. It was the best choice I made for our wedding.

    Thank you so much Alison!

    Allison was amazing. Every person that came to the wedding said it was the best wedding they have ever been to. Allison took all the stress away from planning the wedding. She made sure every detail didn't get overlooked. On the day of my wedding I remember just thinking how stress free and fun it was. I owe a big thanks to Allison for all her hard work. :) I would definitely say book her now before someone else gets her!!!

    Allison was a day-of-wedding coordinator for my daughter's wedding, so she dealt more with directly with my daughter before the wedding. However, she went way above and beyond her contract by promptly answering questions, making great suggestions and being very available not only to my daughter but to me as the Mom-of-the-Bride. Even after the wedding she helped us sort out some significant problems with other parts of the wedding and was a great resource to us. She was thorough and professional and yet very personable. We had many compliments from our guests about how well she handled all the details and coordination. This was a fairly large wedding and yet she helped make the reception flow smoothly and her expertise allowed us all to enjoy the day without worrying about the smallest to biggest detail. My only regret is I wish we would of had Allison from the early planning as she is well networked and a lot of fun and yet professional to deal with. Allison and Happily Ever After is a reasonable investment with many wonderful returns!

    Our primary objective in hiring a wedding coordinator was to have someone available on the day of the event to decorate, clean up, and coordinate the day. The day went off without any major issues. I truly appreciated that Happily Ever After handled the vendors, decorating, and set up; however, I would have preferred that they also handle the clean up. The groom, best man, maid of honor, and my self took care of the clean up. For this reason we felt the amount we paid was not consistent with the service received. On the other hand the service we did receive was AWESOME! I would highly recommend this vendor to any one planning a large wedding; it will give you peace of mind. I can not tell you how wonderful it was to have someone there handling all of the little things so the groom and I could enjoy our day.
