If you are still reading and want to hear more, allow me to s...hare a little bit about not just one, but TWO of our weddings that Alyssa planned. Thanks global pandemic.
Our date was set for September 2020. We had a venue in mind, a concept and LOADS of ideas with no time (we travel frequently) or plan on how to execute. Thankfully we found Alyssa. It was during that first call she listened, asked all the pertinent questions and did not flinch at the idea of transforming a working airport hangar into our dream wedding. You read that right, she turned a fully functioning airplane hangar full of planes at a busy airport which has never held an event such as this, into a multi themed over-the-top dream destination themed wedding. Of the million things that needed to be done to pull this off, she had everything covered. Things that never occurred to us that needed to be covered, she had already done with precision and the most amazing organization I’ve ever witnessed. Then Covid hit.
Our plan of having 260 people, multiple bands, magicians, photo booths, countless cocktail hour food stations, a sit down coursed dinner and multiple bars was squashed. But Alyssa being the rock star planner she is pivoted quickly. We switched our 2020 location to an intimate beach wedding of 25 where we enjoyed a sunset ceremony, dinner and dancing with our toes in the sand. As perfect as this evening was, we still wanted our big celebration, so we pushed our reception date out a year.
Fast forward to September, 2021. Bring back all the pomp and circumstance from our original venue concept, add an additional year of over the top ideas, which she always graciously entertained, and Alyssa brought our dream to life. We had our destination themed reception of coastal New England cocktail hour and Après ski themed reception where our guests were greeted with champagne and airplanes upon arrival, it was everything we hoped for. Alyssa took the lead and coordinated building a kitchen to feed hundreds, brought in bathrooms, arranged 2 different bands, miles of pipe and drape, custom lighting, fog machines, liquid nitrogen, custom invitation suites, AV teams, electrical mapping, a surprise movie premier of our 2020 ceremony, insurances, decor for three separate themes (travel, beach, ski mountain), coordination of countless vendors and did I mention we required this event be entirely single use plastic free and all food had to be sustainably sourced?! I could go on… she did it all.
So, if you have taken the time to read this I refer to my original statement, stop hesitating and contact Alyssa. If you want to enjoy the planning process and have a stress free day with your guests Alyssa Jean Signature Events is who will ensure that happens. Besides saying “I do”, she is the best thing that will happen on your special day.
