Bonnie Sent on 03/26/2019Our wedding was a dream come true thanks to Alanna
If you are trying to plan a wedding without Alanna, you are really making things too hard for yourself. When I started planning, I didn’t think I needed a wedding planner or day-of coordinator. I thought I could do it all by myself. But as the big day got closer, so many little questions started to pile up, and I realized I needed a little help. That’s when I hired Alanna. This was, hands down, the best and most important decision I made while planning my wedding. From day one, Alanna took care of everything. She met with us multiple times before the wedding, answering all our little questions and creating a day-of timeline that would ensure everything ran smoothly. She got in contact with all our vendors to confirm details and answer their questions, and she even hooked us up with a vendor we thought we would never be able to afford! She conducted our rehearsal dinner, and even brought our suitcases to our hotel for us. Seriously, she does EVERYTHING. On the day of the wedding, Alanna was in full power mode. She picked up coolers and ice, and even offered to deliver breakfast to my bridesmaids and I. She got the entire venue decorated exactly as I had envisioned. She greeted vendors and made sure everyone was in the right place at the right time. She cued the processional, set up all the tables for dinner, cut the cake, handed out tip money, and probably ten million other things that I don’t even know she did. Seriously, weeks after the wedding, I am still learning of little things that ALMOST went wrong at my wedding before Alanna saved the day. I wasn’t even aware of these things. Because I hired Alanna, I was able to float through my wedding day blissfully happy and relaxed. Alanna’s top priority was making sure I was not stressed out. It wasn’t until later that I learned how many little details she had to take care of that day. If you’re like me, and you’re thinking of doing everything by yourself, please stop and think about how many little issues will crop up on your wedding day. Do you want to be the one worrying about all of those? Or do you want to relax and enjoy the most beautiful day of your life while Alanna takes care of everything? Seriously, this woman does not charge enough and you should hire her before she becomes the most sought-after day-of coordinator in the country. She’s that good. My wedding day is now the happiest memory of my life, and I know that’s because Alanna was there to make everything perfect.Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:

A dream!!!
Alanna was absolutely amazing! She was by my side since day one, supportive and very responsive. When I thought of a day of coordinator, I considered literally the day of. Alanna was WAY more than that!! We booked her fall of 2021 for our Sept 2022 wedding and when I would push wedding planning to the back burner she always texted or emailed me to check in and see if I needed anything. Alanna communicated with our vendors very efficiently, she got along with our families, friends and guests as if they were her own!! The day of was everything and more than I could have ever dreamt of. I remember showing up to the venue and just being amazed with the details and work she put into everything. I would recommend Alanna to any bride to be, she made wedding planning and our big day so so special! -

I can't say enough great things about Alanna! We hired her to be our wedding coordinator while we were planning a destination wedding in Austin. We were stationed in Japan throughout the pandemic and she went above and beyond to help us and make sure we were comfortable with everything happening even from the other side of the world. We eventually had to cancel our wedding because we were not able to travel during the pandemic and when we did she was completely understanding and so helpful. Alanna is fun, professional, and an absolute joy to work with! I would recommend her services to everyone! -

Alanna did such an amazing job communicating with everyone involved with our wedding. We were blown away with how perfect our day turned out. The vision we had in our minds was exactly, if not more, than what we got. Alanna listened to so many of my anxieties and concerns along the way from RSVPs to food to music and everything in between. She has this cool, calm, & collected personality where I am freaking out and she's like it'll be handled. Alanna took care of every little detail at the rehearsal to the day of and beyond. She never made me feel like I was asking too many questions or that my questions were ridiculous. She truly helped me feel like a stress free bride the day of my wedding and I am so grateful! Our wedding was absolutely beautiful and Alanna was the biggest factor in that! -

Alanna is a pro with such good vibes. From the beginning, we loved her energy and we felt so supported the whole way. Our day went so smoothly and we have Alanna to thank. She was a knowledgeable resource, she was flexible with her scheduling, and she never got awkward when we bickered in front of her. Hey, that's a real skill when you're dealing with stressed out couples! She also provided several services which just made it easier for us-- sparklers, bartender, etc. We definitely would recommend her to anyone. Our date was 2/19/22 at Shiraz Garden. -

FIVE MILLION STARS FOR ALANNA AND HER TEAM!!!!!! Alanna went so far above and beyond — she was there with us far more than just the day of, she answered every single question with a smile, thought of things we hadn't even considered, and took on every last detail. We literally cannot imagine having our day without her, she is hands down the best money you can spend on your wedding. We worked with her for bartending as well, and it was flawless - we got so many compliments from our guests on the bartender, as well as on Alanna's making everything go so smoothly while staying in the background.
A few of my favorite moments from working with Alanna that encapsulate her:
When discussing what to do for the seating chart, she told me "come up with anything you want, show me a picture, and I'll make it happen, nothing is too complicated"
She offered up several of her own accessories to make the day special and save us some money, from table numbers to seating chart framework.
On the day of, after we had dinner we asked her to save the leftovers in case we were hungry later, and she replied, "don't worry, I already put tacos and cookies in your hotel room in case you want them when you get home"
Besides all of this, she is an absolutely wonderful human and delightful to work with. She treats you like you're her only wedding even though she is oh so busy, and truly makes your weekend feel special and stress-free. This is the best money you can spend on your wedding!!!!Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:
it was my absolute pleasure to work with you and Will and to know that you guys had a great day means the world to me. hopefully those leftover tacos were still good :)
thank you so much for writing this, and please stay in touch. love you guys!

Simply Sweet Weddings was amazing! Alanna Bunce was outstanding! I cannot begin to describe how stress-free she made my daughter's wedding for my daughter and for me, MOB! The planning process with Alanna, the rehearsal and the day of was seamless and I'm over the moon impressed. Alanna stayed focused, calm, professional and took care of my daughter and her now-husband the entire time which is what I wanted. My daughter and her husband felt cared for by Alanna every step of the way. Alanna has the enthusiasm and energy that planning a wedding requires and she goes about the whole process with kindness, professionalism and genuine happiness. By the time we got to the wedding day, all I had to do was get dressed and show up! I was able to enjoy everything and everyone, knowing that Alanna was in charge of making sure all of the vendors took care of each of their parts and that guests were taken care of, and most of all that my daughter and her husband were taken care of the entire time. I highly recommend Simply Sweet Weddings, Alanna Bunce is absolutely golden. Her rates are low as she is a start-up business, she has been in the business just two years now, she is crazy good and lucky me and you to get her now. She is known to all of the vendors I used and her name is quickly becoming known throughout the industry, she is that good. She will be on top of this industry soon with rates she well deserves.Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:
Sarah!! ohmygosh!! i am simply touched by your words. it means everything to me to know that you, and Emma + Reagan had such a great day, and felt cared for. you deserve to be able to enjoy the day right along side her, and i am honored to have been the one to be there for you! thank you for choosing and trusting me with such an important day! i had the best time watching such a beautiful day unfold, and to see the love shared between Emma + Reagan was truly special. -

Sarah G. Sent on 07/29/2021One of the Best Decisions We Made!
Hiring Simply Sweet Weddings was one of the best decisions we made for our day, if not the best. Alanna was beyond amazing from Day 1 and went above and beyond to make sure any questions we had were answered, every detail was taken care of, and gave us invaluable guidance on multiple aspects of our day that we were struggling to figure out. She is so knowledgeable and thoughtful and it truly shows in her work. We had to postpone our wedding by a year for the pandemic and she never missed a beat as she helped us through the craziness of rescheduling. We felt 100% confident going into our day knowing we had someone so capable who truly cared about helping us have the best wedding possible. Our day was incredible because of her and her team and we will forever be grateful that we hired them!Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:
i had the best time getting to know you and Josh, and am truly grateful to have been chosen to be there for you both on such a special day. thank you for putting your faith and trust in me, and it means so so much to know that you guys were able to enjoy your day.
wishing nothing but love and happiness for you both!

Exceptional
We simply cannot say enough good things about Alanna and Simply sweet for the beautiful wedding they coordinated for us. In preparation, Alanna held multiple virtual meetings(we live in Houstonand was during Covid), walked us through the wedding day and vendor process, all the while keeping in mind the bigger picture and making sure our day went beautifully. From coordinating the caterer, band, and photographers to handling countless other tasks, we could count on Alanna to and handle tasks so we could enjoy the day stress free. We cannot thank her enough for her time, effort, and thoughtful attention to detail.Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:
i had the best day with you and Virginia! thank you for putting your trust and faith in me and it means everything to know that you guys were able to enjoy your day with no stress!
congratulations again to you both and please stay in touch!

Kaitlyn Sent on 03/01/2021Alanna is your planner and new bestie!!
We were referred to a wedding planner by our venue. I didn't know what a planner involved, but i read all of the reviews for Alanna and her team at Simply Sweet Weddings and was sold! Alanna is amazing at what she does and is so fun and comforting. If you have a problem or a question or random thought, she wants to hear about it. There was never a moment where I felt like I couldn't approach her, and she made sure everyone knew the bride and groom were the priority. We made the decisions, and she handled everything else for us. It was so nice to have that soundboard throughout the planning process and someone that could handle the behind the scenes for us. I loved the frequent video check ins, the detailed timeline of events and the ease of wedding planning with Simply Sweet Weddings!Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:
Kaitlyn, you and David are the sweetest couple. i hope you guys had an amazing time on your honeymoon! thank you so much for taking the time to write these words, they seriously mean everything to me. stay in touch, and i wish you both so much love and happiness in your marriage. -

Harley K. Sent on 05/13/2020Alanna made our lives so easy! Hire her!
We’re finally settling in and we can’t stop raving about her. I hated the idea of a wedding and she gave us such an amazing day. In all seriousness she should charge double. She didn’t just provide us a service, she provided us a friend and just an overall sense of calm. She is an amazing hype woman who was just 100% for us even when i wasn’t for the wedding. We can’t thank her enough for her support and kindness even when I was raging and just hating the industry. The last week was horrific and she just kept such a level head pushing us to the forefront of every issue so we had a good day. If anything went wrong on Saturday we had no idea.
My father in law saw her measuring out the distance between the cornhole boards to make sure it was regulation. We were kept on-time but never rushed. We haven’t heard a single complaint from anyone that went to the wedding. We have no clue who set up the tables or when the cake got there or when guests got seated. We weren’t hungry or thirsty and were just shuffling around enjoying each other and then it was over. We have so much love for her. Thank you so so so much for a gift we can never repay and for giving us a day with memories I didn’t even know I wanted. She was one of the cheapest purchases of the wedding, and she made the entire thing run so much smoother and better. You will never regret hiring her, we guarantee it.
Thanks again Alanna! Love - The HubbardsSimply Sweet Weddings's reply:
omg i miss you guys! thank you so much for these words ... i'm still crying. i had an amazing time with you both, and it means absolutely everything to me to know that you had a great day. you seriously had the worst last week leading up to your wedding day, and to know that i helped give you some sense of calm means so much. your wedding day was beautiful, and i have so much love for you both. i'd do it all again a thousand times over :)
congratulations again, to The Hubbards -

Alanna was everything I needed to make it through a wedding during COVID. We began before the craziness started but she turned out to be our peace when things were uncertain. Highly professional yet personable as well. For someone who thrives on things being organized she kept me relaxed knowing she was on top of it all. She made our wedding vision come to light and it was Amazing!Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:
i am thrilled to hear you guys had an amazing day Brandy! i had the best time getting to know you and Thermond and am going to miss our chats for sure! thank you for putting your trust in me girl! i am truly honored to have been part of something so special. -

Viviana G. Sent on 10/23/2020Kind, professional, and expert day-of-wedding coordination
Alanna was a godsend. I am so happy I stumbled upon her and her very unique product--day-of coordination! Do you have a small budget? Are you planning on creating and buying your own decor? Do you have a vision that you know you can put together but don't want to have to spend time and energy worrying on the day of your wedding?! Great! Alanna is the one for you! I had a vision and didn't trust just anyone to help pull it off. Yet, it was a no-brainer that we needed Alanna when we met her! She was friendly, caring, experienced, and very professional. I knew we had to have her for our wedding. Her package and service was perfect. We had a lot of our decorations picked out and an idea of what we wanted, we just needed someone we could trust to take over the day-of. Alanna went above and beyond that. We were to marry in May of this year; however, when the quarantine mandates were rumored...Alanna, with her knowledge and expertise, helped us navigate those scary, uncharted waters. She was there to guide us through the rescheduling and negotiations with our vendors. It was scary but having her a text away to guide us was invaluable and we will be forever grateful. She never left us to figure it out alone. Beyond that, the day of our wedding was magic and without hiccups! At least if there were, we NEVER found out! The weeks leading up to the wedding, she helped with details we would have never thought of--and her execution of the decor and setup was super intuitive of what I wanted. Alanna made sure that our day was perfect...and it was. Alanna's service was the best. We highly highly recommend her and her team. -

She’s got your back!
We used Brushy Creek Events All-Inclusive package and we were so lucky to get Alanna as our day-of-coordinator!
Before our wedding, Alanna met with us until we had everything finalized and she made sure that if we needed anything she was only a text or call away.
During the day of the wedding, she made our vision come to life! I’m pretty sure placing personal decor was not part of her job, but she did it anyways! I was not stressed at all during the wedding because I know Alanna had our backs!
After the event, she took care of the clean up and made sure our personal decor made it back to our hotel room. She even returned a few rentals items for us without us even asking, giving us less stuff to do after the wedding!
Alanna was so great to work with and from the moment we met her, I knew we were in good hands! Our wedding went so smoothly all because of Alanna. Please do yourself a favor, and hire her for your wedding!Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:
Kristina!! thank you so much for taking the time to write these words. i am so beyond happy for you and Josh, and i had the best time getting to know you both. i wish you all the happiness and love, and please please stay in touch girl!

Wow! What can I say about how AMAZING Alanna is?! I'm a wedding photographer and have worked with Alanna in the past. I knew after working with her, I was going to one day book her for my wedding. Really, that's how good she is.
Coordination can be stressful, but she does it SO easily. She gets my stamp of approval so much, I even refer her to my clients. Even under pressure (like when the strap to my dress came undone and we almost had a wardrobe malfunction...) she stays calm and tackles any task.
Thanks for everything, girl!Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:
girl! the day i got your email that you wanted me to coordinate ... i was so honored ... and nervous! ha! to have a vendor choose you is the ultimate and i am just so thrilled to have been part of it with you. it was an awesomely epic day, and i loved all your unique touches. i had that tattoo on my cheek for 2 days :) you looked absolutely stunning and i am beyond happy for you and Jon. congratulations again and i'll see you soon -

Where to start!
I am a very organized person overall, but Alanna takes organization to the next level! I came across Simply Sweet Weddings online, and by just going through the website I felt such an amazing connection that when we met for the first time, I knew we would be hiring Alanna for our special day!
Alanna was very prepared with a lot of questions that I wouldn't have imagined asking myself. She had so many ideas that made our wedding so special and unique! From the day we hired Alanna, we were very stress free! She has such a positive attitude about EVERYTHING and that's the kind of vibe you want during wedding planning. I was able to get a hold of Alanna pretty much any time of the day, she met with us right around home, and she led us to other great vendors! Our wedding day was so seamless, you do not know how amazing it was for me to just show up ready, walk down the isle and enjoy EVERY second of our wedding. Alanna's heart is in this for the very perfect reason - to help others start the beginning of such an amazing journey the perfect way! She is gold!

Samantha B. Sent on 05/15/2019Alanna and her team far exceeded our expectations!
We could not have asked for a better wedding coordinator! From day one, Alanna from Simply Sweet Weddings added a positive and bright energy to the wedding planning details! She asked me questions I hadn't thought to consider, and she was endlessly patient as I took time to make decisions. She never added any pressure to planning decisions, and she made herself available as a soundboard whenever I needed someone's advice.
Then, wedding day arrives. The weather is 60 degrees (unheard of for May in Texas), and a forecast of thunderstorms. Alanna and her team were AMAZING with watching the weather and moving our ceremony outdoors at the last minute when the skies cleared.
ALL of our guests complimented the friendly, cordial service, and impeccable timeline implemented by none other than Alanna. Needless to say, she far exceeded our expectations, and my new husband and I cannot sing her praises enough. If you are in the market for a day-of-coordinator, I highly recommend Alanna from Simply Sweet Weddings. You cannot put a price on not worrying about the small details on your wedding day. Knowing Alanna was there to gather gifts/personal decorations/etc. allowed me and the groom to enjoy our day completely. We made so many great memories, and that's in no small part due to Alanna.Simply Sweet Weddings's reply:
these words mean absolutely everything to me. i am so so happy you and Dan had such a great day. i am simply blessed to have had the chance to work with you both, and be part of such a beautiful day. thank you so much for putting your faith and trust in me, and im just so beyond thrilled that it was a great day -
