Ashley is a must-have
Ashley McCallister was nothing short of a God-send. From the moment we met her, it was evident that we were in the most capable hands. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our wedding was flawlessly executed. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and organized professional to guide us through our special day.
Ashley went above and beyond our expectations from the beginning by crafting a detailed and down-to-the-minute schedule for our wedding day. She left no stone unturned, ensuring that every moment flowed seamlessly into the next. And just when we thought her organizational skills couldn't get any better, she surprised us with a contingency plan for every possible scenario that might arise. Her foresight and preparedness gave us tremendous peace of mind.
For example, two moments from our experience with Ashley perfectly encapsulate why she is a must-have for your wedding:
First, about a week leading up to our wedding, Ashley was calling all of our vendors and ensuring that would be ready and prepared for our day. When she called the company that was catering our food, they told her that we never booked with them. Ashley calmly called a contact she had from another wedding she did, and almost immediately ensured that we had food, caterers, and people to deliver the food to our venue. She didn’t even give us time to be stressed about it.
Secondly, on the day of the wedding, as the groom, I discovered a stain on the rented suit that I had somehow missed during the fittings. Before panic could even set in, I simply texted Ashley and she came equipped with a bag of emergency essentials for every thing that could possibly go wrong. She had literally thought of everything, and again, before I could even be stressed about it, she whipped out a tide pen and resolved the issue in no time. Ashley quite literally prevented any and all stress on the day of our wedding, and I can’t even begin to explain how much it means to us.
But Ashley's excellence extended beyond her extraordinary organizational skills. She was more than just a coordinator; she was a true friend throughout the process. Her infectious enthusiasm and genuine care made her an absolute joy to work with. She brought a sense of fun and positivity to the wedding preparations, which made the journey even more enjoyable. It felt like we were planning the wedding with someone who genuinely shared in our excitement.
The wedding day itself was a testament to Ashley's brilliance. Despite the inevitable last-minute changes and unforeseen hiccups, she handled everything with grace and poise. Her ability to pivot and adapt on the spot ensured that every challenge was overcome seamlessly, leaving us free to savor every moment of our special day.
I honestly cannot imagine how our wedding would have unfolded without Ashley by our side. If you're looking for a wedding coordinator who is not only exceptional at her job but also becomes a cherished friend in the process, Ashley is the one. We cannot recommend her enough, and we are forever grateful for the magic she brought into our lives on our wedding day. Thank you, Ashley, for making our dreams come true! -

Her calm presence and professionalism gave us complete confidence that everything was under control.

Nobody else even comes close!
RANE Designs was absolutely amazing as our wedding coordinator and decorator! From start to finish, she made the entire process feel effortless. On the wedding day, my mom and I had zero stress, which honestly meant everything to us. She was incredibly attentive and quick to handle anything that came up—most of the time before we even realized there could’ve been an issue. Everything turned out beautifully, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend! -

Amazing Wedding Planner
Ashley from RANE Designs was our day- of coordinator for our wedding this past June. She was extremely helpful, accommodating, thoughtful, and professional. She went above and beyond to make our day special and offered great advice during the planning process. The best decision we made during the wedding planning process was having her plan our day! I would give her 10 stars if I could, I highly recommend Ashley! -

Rane Designs made me feel excited to be a bride again!
I feel so grateful to have had Ashley as my wedding planner. From her kindness and patience, to her creative eye and ability to think fast in high-pressure situations, she was a lifesaver throughout the entire wedding planning and execution process! I didn't hire a wedding planner from the start, I thought I could manage it all on my own and I was DEAD wrong. Ashley was incredibly helpful and supportive, and made my husband and I's special day everything we could have dreamed of! -

The best experience I could have ever asked for!
Ashley takes the weight off your shoulders so you can enjoy your wedding day. She is all things that encompass what you want on your wedding day. Kind, professional yet the best fun haver and biggest cheerleader. Not just your wedding planner but a friend. She loves her job and it shows. I will forever count myself lucky I got to work with her!-

I wanted to be able to wake up the day of the rehearsal and not worry about anything from then until after the wedding and really enjoy time with our guests. That’s where Ashley came in. She handled all of the communication with our vendors, all of the set up and tear down of not only our decor, but also the decor we borrowed from her. She created a timeline for us and was so sweet about not making it feel like we were being pulled in all directions. We were able to fully relax and trust that she knew what we were supposed to be doing. I didn’t look at a clock all night, but she had us right on track. -

Best choice we made!
Oh my goodness! Save yourself the time and stress and choose them now! I primarily worked with Ashley over zoom in the preparation stages but I did get to meet Kelsi on the day of. From our beginning meeting to discuss my vision and plans, to the very end, they were wonderful! It was like working with friends in that they were very easy going and blended in so well with everyone. They handled my very large family like champs. They made some magic happen for us and created a venue from scratch. Plan A and B fell through, so we went with Plan C. No, we did not have a plan for Plan C originally so we made it up on the fly and they rolled with it and made it perfect. Everything from the table set up, the plates, centerpieces, layout...everything was all them! They didn't let me do hardly anything to set up and made sure I enjoyed the day! They truly thought of everything. Anything we needed or didn't know we needed but did, they were prepared for! They have a decorating package where you have access to a list of items they've accumulated and it saved us so much time and energy. We didn't throw anything away including flowers, which I felt much better about than buying a bunch of things to only use once. Ashley recommended so many vendors who all worked out beautifully and were absolute professionals. They've continued to be helpful with questions I had post wedding about storing dresses and saving bouquets. These ladies were an absolute GODSEND to us. You won't regret going with them!-

Rane Designs (Ashley) did an amazing job. She was very responsive, detailed and organized.
I would recommend Rane Designs 1000x over. Ashley was everything I could have asked for in a wedding coordinator. I was able to wake up day of wedding stress free and soak in and enjoy every second of the day with my family and friends. My Husband and I were very impressed with her work. Not only did she execute all my wedding dreams/ideas but I love that you can see that she loves what she does. If you are in search of the perfect wedding coordinator, Rane Designs will exceed your expectations. -

You won’t regret it!!!
Who doesn’t want a stress free wedding day? We couldn’t have imagined our big day without Rane designs! We hired them as our day of coordinator only, but it was by far the best money spent throughout the whole process. Ashley was phenomenal to work with, and I recommend her and her business to all of our friends and family who have weddings coming up. From directing the rehearsal dinner to ensuring every last detail of the wedding day was picture perfect what we wanted, Rane designs did it all and then some. -

My biggest wedding regret was hiring them.
As you start booking your wedding vendors, many people in the wedding world may tell you that RANE Designs is the best coordinator in Lubbock. Do your own research rather than taking strangers’ words for it. I fell for it, and it is now my biggest regret when I look back on my wedding. I have a hard time reflecting on my wedding with fond memories due to how poor of a job they did and how rude they were to many family members of ours.
My ceremony was ruined due to their disorganization and it’s a moment I will never get back. My biggest fear growing up was that my handicapped father wouldn’t be able to walk me down the aisle due to his disability. They made that fear come true! My dad (in a wheelchair) was left in the back corner of a room when the ceremony began, and I ended up having to walk down the aisle alone because the RANE Designs team had a huge miscommunication. When I asked Ashley what happened afterwards, she just said their microphones stopped working. She did not apologize nor take any accountability/try to make things right.
Her team was also very inconsistent with the plans set in the rehearsal in comparison to wedding day. They told us one thing in rehearsal, then harshly told my family members the complete opposite thing during the ceremony. My family members are not overly sensitive people, but because of how rudely RANE’s team treated them, they chose to leave after the ceremony.
I also hired a content creator to film my wedding day. I was excited to look back at some clips of my cocktail hour since I didn’t get to attend it, only to receive a crap ton of files featuring RANE Designs flipping the room, rather than clips of people enjoying our cocktail hour. Please tell me why I would ever want footage of the room flip. RANE has posted quite a bit of this content on their social media, and did not pay a dime for it, reaping the benefits of the vendor I hired.
Additionally, I made my design vision extremely clear throughout the planning process. Unfortunately, one particular floral installation looked nothing like what had been discussed & nothing like any inspiration photos we had ever talked about. NOTHING. It happened to be the piece I was most excited about as well, so that is what made it extremely disappointing. A $1,700 piece that I ended up hating. While this falls mainly on the florist, Ashley and her team should have recognized the disconnect before it was too late. By the time I saw everything, there was no opportunity to fix it.
I was hardly able to relax on wedding night due to the forgetfulness and lack of attention to detail this team displayed. I was having to remind them of little details throughout the night that they forgot about.
The few positives I will give are that Ashley was very responsive when I texted or emailed her a few months out from the wedding, and she was very helpful during the month of meeting. She also created a very detailed and organized day of timeline that was done well.
There are MANY other specifics I could give as to why I don’t believe this team is worth what they charge, but I wrote enough of a novel. I hope nobody has to experience the sadness I experience when looking back on how my wedding ceremony went. -
