Hello Anne
HI, I'M LISSA
I'm glad you're here
Have you seen the Katherine Heigl movie "27 Dresses"? While I don't have quite that many dresses in my closet [I'm at about 10 right now], I have played right hand gal to many of my best friends on their special days over the years, which is where I found my love of planning and became certified! From assisting with their weddings to planning the best day ever for my lovely clients, let me help you create a fabulous party that your friends and family will gush over for years to come!
If you're a lover of dogs, sappy Hallmark movies with predictable plot lines, think tacos are the world's most perfect food, love to get down on the dance floor, and want a new planning BFF, we might just be a perfect match.

Let's Plan a Wedding!
I make wedding planning as fun and easy as possible and provide you with planning tools to help you through your planning journey including:
-
customized virtual office to house your contracts, vendor information, and planning documents,
-
50+ page guide on everything from floral inspiration to how to book vendors
-
planning timelines + checklists
Wedding planning can be fun and exciting, but it can also be crazy, stressful, confusing, and straight-up weird! How do you choose the best vendors? What are your wedding colors? How do you figure out who gets a 'plus one' and whether or not you should invite your aunt's second cousin who you haven't seen since you were four?!
Last year was my turn to walk down the aisle and I get it! Wedding planning isn’t exactly what everyone does everyday of their lives and by the time you feel like you get the hang of it, the big day has arrived!

kind words from our couples
"Lissa truly thought of everything. We decided to throw together a backyard wedding in just a matter of weeks, and Lissa dove right in with us and helped us pull off a beautiful day. We could not have done it without her. HIRE HER! Having a planner is worth the investment. I didn't have to worry about a thing on the day of my wedding and was able to enjoy stress-free."

WEDDING MANAGEMENT
Also known as "day of coordination"
For the couple that wants to be “all-in” with the planning process but wants to sit back, relax, & soak in all the magic on their wedding day. You have your vendors booked, have payments scheduled and need someone to tie is all together!
PARTIAL PLANNING
For the couple that wants to plan most of their wedding but wants a little more help booking vendors, designing the space, and staying organized & on track! You've secured a couple of vendors, you know what you want, you just need a little help tying up loose ends and putting the finishing touches on things.
FULL PLANNING
For the couple that wants their wedding vision to come to life, but wants to be guided through the entire process, then this plan is for you! With your input and opinions in the forefront, I will create a suggested vendors list, design plan, and timeline from the rehearsal through wedding clean up. All you have to do is tell me what you want and I do the rest!

"Lissa was absolutely amazing from start to finish! From the first phone call to the follow up after our wedding we couldn’t have asked for a more dedicated and responsive planner. Lissa helped us navigate downsizing our 185 person wedding to an intimate 25 person ceremony and dinner. She communicated every change and specific request to our vendors. She was my saving grace when I had just about given up on the entire thing. I will recommend her to every newly engaged couple I know and wish I had another wedding to plan just to be able to use her again!"

"It was about a month before our wedding and I began to realize having a day-of-coordinator was needed. I found myself having phone calls with about 8 day of coordinators. Lissa, was actually my last phone call. While talking to her there was an instant connection. I could tell how passionate she was about what she does and she made me feel at ease even on the phone. I made a decision right after hanging up to move forward with her. She was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was extremely organized, detail oriented and helped keep us on track. She took over coordination with my vendors and worked on creating a day of timeline. Lissa, kept us in the loop when necessary but didn’t overwhelm us with all the last minute things. We felt extremely confident in Lissa, and didn’t feel the need to have her run by decisions that might have been needed that day, we knew she would have everything under control. The day of she made everything run smoothly and went above and beyond. She had drinks (and water) in our hand all night and made sure we had food to eat throughout, even during pictures! I know if we didn’t have Lissa I would have been so stressed the day of our wedding. If you are considering a day of coordinator/wedding planner you will not be disappointed with Lissa."
