My husband and I hired Alex and chose the Design + Wedding Management package. One of the first questions Alex asked us was what we wanted for our wedding day, to which we responded that it was a fun, memorable, relaxing day where we could enjoy our friends and family and not have to worry about the details. From there, Alex prioritized our needs and delivered beyond what we imagined. Alex and her team created several design vision boards for my wedding. Once we picked which we liked best, Alex found the right vendors within my budget, would take down/set up design elements, and was extremely easy to work with. She also kept in touch with all vendors, including my venue. Finally, Alex coordinated with ALL vendors in creating a day-of schedule. AND IT DOESN'T STOP THERE! The wedding day was bliss for my husband and me. One thing that stuck out was that our wedding cake was delivered to the venue a bit smooshed. Alex got an even BETTER wedding cake to the venue (in Brainerd, Minnesota) from the Twin Cities area without mentioning the mishap to me! All we had to do was relax and enjoy our special day. I cannot recommend All of the Above more!
Do your wedding day self a favor and hire All of the Above! Alex and her team went above and beyond to make our day incredibly smooth so we could be fully present and soak in each ...
and every detail. From the very beginning, Alex was a major resource for us by helping us find LGBTQ+ inclusive vendors in a fairly conservative area. She always remained positive with a “can do” attitude to make our wedding day everything we have dreamed of. We hired All of the Above for month and day of coordination which was super helpful to have her help leading up to wedding day. She provided an extensive checklist and helped us stay organized and on pace for wedding planning.
As with any wedding, things certainly did not go as planned but Alex made sure we didn’t feel an ounce of pressure.
1. My wedding dress zipper broke when putting it on right before first looks, her and her team stitched me right in with their emergency sewing kit.
2. We were sent the wrong head tablecloth in a color that did not go with our theme. Alex helped us pivot and created a head table that exceeded our own expectations. The display was so beautiful it made us love our set up even more than what we thought was our “dream head table”.
3. The caterer was supposed to provide plated meals to my wife and I as well as our bridal parties. When the caterer dropped the ball, Alex and her team stepped right in to serve us plated meals and keep the timeline flowing.
4. The caterer was supposed to provide my mom with an allergy friendly meal which they failed to do. Alex stepped right in to inform me and ask if her team could pick up a meal nearby for my mom. They did so without a hitch and my mom LOVED what they got for her.
Aside from All of the Above problem solving so seamlessly, they kept our wedding on pace in a stress-free fashion. Their attention to detail was unparalleled. We can’t imagine what our wedding day would have been without Alex and her team, however, we know for fact that we would not have enjoyed it near as much. One of the best financial decisions we made for our wedding and would 1000% recommend All of the Above for your wedding planning needs!
The team at All of the Above did an absolutely incredible job in making our wedding day as seamless as possible. We hired them as our day-of coordinators and also purchased their d...
ecor setup/teardown package - which, let me tell you, saved us a WHOLE lot of time and stress! Alex and her team were consistently one step ahead of the curve throughout our big day, and as a result, everything flowed effortlessly. They were kind, professional, and hardworking. My husband and I couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. We highly recommend All of the Above to anyone who is considering hiring a day-of coordinator!
Alex from All of the Above was SO helpful in planning our wedding. She was incredibly flexible and organized. Alex patiently answered our many questions in the days leading up to t...
he wedding and made time to meet virtually to finalize last minute details. She made sure the day of our wedding went smoothly and was so kind and thoughtful throughout the entire process! All the Above also helped us organize our brunch the day after the wedding, and played a huge role in communicating with vendors. We are so grateful! I would recommend using All of the Above to help anyone plan their wedding.
When planning your wedding, Look no further than Alexandra and Julia at All of the Above.
As a venue, not only do we require a day of coordinator, but highly encourage couples to...
have a planner on their side to ensure all details are taken care of. We have to deal with a lot of vendors, (good and bad) including planners, and can definitely say that having a great one is so very important - and All of the Above nailed it. They were on top of everything to ensure that everything was taken care of.
With our most recent wedding, it was not ideal weather to compete with, however, these ladies sure knocked it out of the park to make sure that the event went as smooth as possible!
All of the Above was the best decision we made for our wedding!! I can’t believe I can say I was truly stress free on my wedding day but I can because Alex and her team took care o...
f any and everything that might have caused me stress before I even knew it was happening. Alex did everything possible to make sure we had the perfect day, including changing her schedule around to make sure we had the proper coverage of staff on our day. Having her and the team there for the rehearsal and day of was a huge relief to my family members too as they were able to enjoy the weekend too!
Hands down would recommend All of the Above and give them 100 stars if I could.
Alex and all staff at All of the Above were so great to have help plan our wedding! They were timely with communication, took the time to get to know us as a couple, and were so ve...
ry helpful with every detail leading up to and on the day of our wedding! They made wedding planning seem manageable and took away any stress on our wedding day. We would highly recommend them to anyone!!
We are very happy that we ended up with All of the Above as our day-of-coordinator. Initially, we had a different coordinator, who ended up having to cancel, and they introduced us...
to Alex at All of the Above. Alex picked up where our coordinator left off and was very thorough and professional in doing so. After our wedding, Alex reached out to vendors about issues that arose during our wedding day to make sure they made things right. We were very pleased with the support we got from Alex and her staff at All of the Above.
Words can't do justice to the work Alex and her team provide to couples leading up to and on the day of our wedding.
We hired Alex's team to be our day-of coordinator, but she wa...
s always available to be our advocate or simply tell us we weren't crazy and that was in fact not the way things should be done when we ran into issues.
On the wedding day, her team put out fires that we never needed to worry about and put in extra work after our wedding day while we were on our honeymoon advocating for us to resolve issues with vendors that didn't fulfill their commitment on our wedding day.
Outside of the great work her team did on the day of the wedding, Alex was a huge support for both of us throughout the day just being a human that cared about us and not a wedding vendor that has a contractual obligation. You can trust that her and her team are going to put you first because she cares not because she's paid to do it.
Alex was an outstanding resource. If you are considering hiring a wedding planner and can work with Alex, I would suggest you do yourself a favor and hire her. Feel free to look ar...
ound at other wedding planners, however my guess is you will end up hiring her anyway.
My wedding was planned in 30 days while my now wife and I live in different states. Both my wife and I work in excess of 60-70 hours a week. Alex helped with not only wedding planning but the coordination of vendors. When issues came up to include issues on the day of the wedding, Alex handled everything with grace and professionalism. I would like to paint a picture of the challenge that Alex faced and ultimately overcame.
1. Wedding timeline very short (less than 30 days roughly)
2. I live in state X my wife lives in state Y and the location was in state Z .
3. Multinational / multi-cultural event (think big fat desi wedding).
4. Vendors located in 4 different states almost everything was fully custom and one off.
5. Blizzard hit the day before and the day of the event.
6. Odd work hours and time zones meant that I would call Alex at 4-5 AM or 12 midnight depending on what day it was.
I enjoyed working with Alex and her team so much that in the future when I need to plan a party, I will be reaching out again. Alex had never planned any kind of desi wedding much less a Muslim Nikah; but she managed to exceed our expectations.
Alex and Alena were the best money we spent on our wedding! From the beginning they were prompt and through with communication, it consistently blew my mind how quick and proactive...
they were with communication while in the planning stages.
The weekend of our wedding (we had a "mini-destination" wedding weekend) they kept everything on time, organized and took care of EVERYTHING. I do not know what we would have done without them and they gave us such peace of mind the entire time.
I cannot recommend them highly enough!
Alex and Alena were truly the best decision I had in regards to ALL of my wedding planning! I can't say enough about how amazing they were!!! They were so involved from the very be...
ginning - always supportive, encouraging, insightful, and never pushy. Leading up to the wedding, they were very communicative and responsive; they thought of countless things that I would have never thought about. They are creative problem solvers, trustworthy, and help keep perspective when things feel overwhelming as a bride. Honestly, they act as an advocate for the bride all throughout the wedding planning and help make your decision come to life. On the day of the wedding, they were on top of literally everything so that I didn't have to think about a single thing... and it was all PERFECT. From the decor they set up perfectly, the nonstop dealing with vendors, and the behind the scene work, to literally grabbing a "tide to go" and removing any dirt from my dress before the wedding all while making sure I had my favorite drink throughout the night.. they are the very BEST. I can't thank these ladies enough!
Alexandra and her team with All of the Above wedding planning was absolutely amazing! They helped us leading up to the wedding to finalize contracts, timelines and details and help...
ed us to make sure everything was in order! So many fine details that we did not think about- they had covered! We had the team for rehearsal and the day of our wedding- they were spot on, helped perfect the timeline of our big day and make everything flow as planned! They did such a good job coordinating time and details with all of our vendors to make sure everyone was on the same page! They were there to assist with whatever was needed throughout the day of the wedding and were so helpful. I cannot say enough positive things about their service! Planning a wedding in our backyard was much less stressful with these ladies around. 😊 Highly recommend Alexandra and her team, thank you ladies again for helping to make our day extra special! 🤍 You and Alena are amazing!
We had the most amazing experience working with All of the Above. Alex and Alena are truly the best! Throughout the wedding planning process Alex was there to assist and answer any...
questions we had. On the wedding day, Alex and Alena were miracle workers. We had several minor issues come up throughout the day. Alex and Alena had every minor issue solved within minutes. Hiring Alex and Alena was by far the best decision we made for our wedding day. If you're looking for a wedding planner, look no further!
We had such a great experience working with Alex. She was attentive, easy to work with and professional. We absolutely recommend her without hesitation!
I can not say enough great things about Alex and the All of the Above team. Their attention to every detail leading up to the big day was phenomenal. She took our vision of rust...
ic wedding at the lake and made it come to life and on budget. We had our wedding at our lake home on West Battle Lake; and she helped us with finding all our vendors. From our caterer; Precision Catering, to our DJ; Harmon Entertainment; to our tent company; Fargo Party Tents; we even had Portable Porcelain, for some fancy porta potties; just to name a few. Alex and her team were always calm, collective, and professional. We had 2 day of hiccups that she handled absolutely flawlessly. She coordinated getting walls for the tent the day of to handle the “Battle Lake blow”. As well getting a replacement shirt and pants for one of groomsmen who forgot them at home back in the Twin Cities. If you are planning a wedding in the Ottertail County area I would highly recommend hiring her team. There is no way we could have pulled off our big day had we had Alex with us every step of the way.
Alex and Alena were my "Fairy God-Mothers" (truly!) for 8 months leading up to the wedding, at the wedding rehearsal and most definitely on my wedding day. I cannot say enough good...
things about the level of care my husband and I recieved from them from start to finish. We won't soon forget them. Alex and Alena are EVERYTHING good planners/coordinators should be and more. They don't miss a beat, I promise. Highly recommend these magical ladies to anyone looking for an event or wedding planner. They are one of the best descisions I made for our wedding!
This post can be summed up in a few words, “My wedding wouldn’t have happened without Alex!” My groom and I were dealt some pretty unlucky cards in 2020, Alex stepped in and handle...
d everything. From all the small details, to finding a replacement photographer the morning of my wedding when my original photographer ended up in the ER. She deflected every problem before I even knew about it. She was in constant communication with us and our wedding party to ensure every wrinkle was smoothed out before our big day. We had multiple people comment on how well she did, how friendly she was, and how professional she presented herself. You will not be disappointed if you choose to have Alex as your event planner. She was hired as our wedding coordinator and grew to become our friend. We are so grateful for her and for all she did to make our wedding day absolutely perfect.
