I can not say enough nice things about this company, especially Maria. I went with their day of coordinating package, which was more of a 2 month package, and it was very reasonably priced. I had Maria as my coordinator and she was a rock star. She took care of everything from set-up to tear-down. I didn't have to worry about a thing all day. Even when I had a mini freak out about the time she talked me off the ledge within seconds. Not only was she incredible at her job but she was just such a nice and fun person. I give her all the credit to why our wedding was absolutely perfect. Whatever she is being paid, Availed should double it, because she had to deal with my family and that's not an easy job.
Seriously, brides, Availed is worth the money! They are amazing to work with.
Availed was a game changer for my wedding!
Kalyssa was wonderful to work with. She was professional and made our day so smooth and stress free. Everything was perfect and turned out beautiful. I would 100% recommend Availed for your wedding day! Amazing!!
Working with Lexie and Maria was truly priceless! We contracted with them for Day of Coordinator, but they go above and beyond that! Lexie helped us with design questions months before the wedding and was always available for any questions we had. Maria stayed well past the end to make sure tear down went smoothly! So much more than Day Of Planner was provided…not to mention the emotional support and encouragement throughout! They are extremely professional and responsive. As soon as a question was asked, there was an answer! Maria was on top of everything from her detailed spreadsheets to exhaustively making sure the day was a dream! Throughout the wedding, I could see Maria making sure we were on top of our timeline and that every final detail was carried out to perfection. 💕Thank you so much for everything… Your service is truly a must have for every wedding.
Availed has assisted me with three different events this year, and they made the entire process incredibly easy. Their team is wonderful to work with, and they did an excellent job sourcing and hiring all our vendors. I highly recommend Availed to anyone planning an event.
Taylor and the Availed team was fantastic! She made sure everything ran smoothly throughout the whole night and was extremely communicative. All our vendors raved about how great she was to work with.
Availed Events is the BEST wedding vendor you can have! I have had so many brides reach out asking if I could hire only one vendor who would it be and SHE IS IT. I had so many ideas and she tied them all together beautifully. She made sure our day was personal to us and not just another pretty wedding. She constantly checked in to make sure all my needs and requests were met. She went above and beyond for our special day. She gave vendor recommendations, negotiated with them, ensured every detail matched our theme and she could see us in every recommendation. She helped with booking as well. This was SO important to me because they have worked with so many vendors she could tell me her honest opinions and if they would be a good personality fit for Max and I. I never had to worry or break a sweat because I knew she was so many steps ahead of me ensuring every detail was taken care of.
You will feel like the only bride they have. You will feel organized, prepared, beautiful, and so special with Availed Events planning your day.
I did the complete coordination option! She will help with budget creation and management.
I received complete event design that comes with a Custom Design Proposal. I showed her one Pinterest photo and she found every last detail with REAL vendors and put it together in a deck for me to review. She won't show you something that can't actually be rented or bought for your day.
If you love a check list like I do you will love her planning tools! She has a digital check list so I could see the full list, check off items and see when things were coming up. It kept my stress in check!
You will have the BEST time with your virtual and in person meetings!! I never wanted them to end. We would go over our to-dos or any vendors and work together to make the vision come to life. All the hours spent together making decisions was my favorite part.
Unlimited phone and email communication with your Lead Planner throughout the entire planning process - I CAN TELL YOU THIS PART OF THE CONTRACT IS REAL! I could NOT believe how timely I would get a response and how helpful. Again, I always felt like her priority and felt so special.
The coordinators day of were amazing too. She has the BEST team that will bring all the fun during planning and day of! So many smiling faces and all the happy memories made were because of their hard work.
I cannot recommend Availed Events more! You will not regret it and you will have the PERFECT wedding.
We had the pleasure of working with Taylor on our 9.29.23 wedding. We are soo happy we booked with Availed. We just did their day of coordination package and it was unbelievably helpful! The last few weeks of wedding planning can be stressful and they absolutely helped alleviate some of that stress. I couldn’t imagine a smooth day of without Taylor and her assistant Kalyssa there. If you are considering booking with Availed, you won’t regret it! Thank you Availed/Taylor/Kalyssa :)
Absolutely go with Availed! I used their wedding day management and had such a fun time working with Lexie and Kalyssa! Every detail was thought of and executed. They made me feel relaxed and were both so approachable. Highly recommend their team! The software and planning services kept me on track and organized throughout the process. I cannot thank them enough.
The Availed team were truly a dream to work with! Lexie was calm, collected, and professional from start to finish. She has all the wedding wisdom you’d ever need!
The tools she provided in the planning process were instrumental to us. It helped me so much in keeping organized, meeting deadlines, and planning for upcoming payments.
She made all my design dreams come true! Lexie put so much time and effort into making my vision come to life (and staying patient with me when I changed me vision a million times). She provided the greatest guidance and advice to us.
Lexie has a calming presence that helped me stay in the moment and have fun on my day. If anything went wrong, we had no idea!
I can’t recommend Availed enough for all your wedding planning needs! You won’t regret the peace of mind you feel on the big day from having a great planner by your side. We love you Availed! 🤍
Availed was so amazing to work with! I let them know what I wanted on the day of my wedding, and they made it happen each step of the way! It was SO amazing not having to worry about the details, so that I could enjoy the moment and be present. The day still want by so fast, but I can't imagine how crazy it would have been without availed :). It was worth every dollar of investment, and I would recommend it to any bride to be!!!!!!
We booked the month-of planning package and couldn't be happier. Our Availed wedding planners made the last month before our special day much less stressful, ensuring all our vendors showed up at the right place at the right time. If I could give them 10 stars, I would.
Absolutely the best decision we made in regards to our wedding. If you're considering a wedding planner Availed is a must. The team does all things big and small. Right from the beginning she set up our venue showings with attached calendar invites with all the details. She was there will us step by step for each phase of the planning. (Even during the overwhelmed freakout emails.) On the day of she was there to make sure everything was ran smoothly and it was perfection. She even went the extra mile and hand delivered a cocktail to us after the ceremony. We can't say enough positive things about our experience with Availed. Truly exceptional at what they do.
Where do I begin with Availed?! I’m not exaggerating when I say Jocelyn and her team made our wedding seamless, stress-free, and truly perfect. From the beginning to the end, Jocelyn was with us every step of the way. From helping us find the vendors that fit our vision, to helping that vision come to life on the day-of, to even helping me find a band-aid towards the end of our wedding night (lol) she was our personal fairy godmother. Coordinating everything and keeping us on schedule alleviated any stress we had and allowed us to just enjoy the ride. She made our dream wedding come to life, and we couldn’t be happier. I could not recommend her more. If you’re questioning whether or not Availed is worth it, this is your sign than yes-they absolutely are!
Jocelyn was a rockstar! Truly could not have gotten through this wedding without her. Having a wedding planner help create and act out your vision, as well as keep you on track of all the to-do’s leading up to the wedding, saved me a lot of stress! Would highly recommend the Availed
I have worked with Lexie and Jocelyn as a vendor to their couples on several weddings and they are just a joy to work with! They are super organized, detailed, responsive, and on-the-ball! As a vendor, I can tell that they have a love for what they do, and they do it well!
I was honestly more worried about writing this review than my own vows because I can’t even begin to put into words all that Lexie and her team did for us throughout the entire wedding planning process. The short of it: hiring availed was hands down the best money we’ve ever spent. Full service planning is the way to go - you will not be disappointed.
I interviewed multiple planners but it only took a few minutes to realize Lexie was the one. She was SO easy to talk to and she felt like a best friend. She was there for us every step of the way — she came with us to all our venue tours, meetings, etc and ensured that everything was perfect on our day. She was a constant, calming force every time I was stressed.
Overall, Lexie is a wonderful human, a boss lady, an incredible mom and she stacks her team with people just as great as her. Not only did I gain a husband, but also a life long friend. James and I feel so lucky to have had the privilege of working with Availed.
Soon after getting engaged, it became clear that we needed a partner to help us navigate the wedding planning process, especially during the pandemic, and pull off the event of our dreams. Lexie was exactly what we were hoping for - a steady and dedicated guide who advised us on the best vendors, a stunning design and every detail in between in the lead up to our big day. She is detail-oriented and understood our priorities and needs from the get-go, which was so comforting during a busy time! And when Lexie went on maternity leave, Jocelyn stepped in to flawlessly execute all of the moving parts. From day one, she was extremely kind, caring and responsive to our every need - and anticipated things we hadn't even thought of! She was also a joy to have with us on the wedding day as she led the coordination, making sure we were on time, nourished and enjoying our day. As a couple with a very specific vision for what we wanted our wedding to feel like, the Availed team were amazing partners in helping to make it a reality. Thank you, Lexie and Jocelyn!
Hire Availed for all your wedding needs!
Lexie helped us find all of our perfect vendors within our budget, and designed our dream wedding. It was such an easy planning process with Lexie, and she is so great to work with! For day-of, we had Christine and Jocelyn. The day went by flawlessly having them there and we were so happy we had day-of help, letting my ourselves and family enjoy the day! Hire Availed for a stress free wedding planning! The Availed team brings such a calm presence to your day and will make your wedding day/planning a breeze! Highly recommend :)
I wish I could give Availed 10 stars because they absolutely deserve it. Lexie and her team are outstanding and my husband and I are so thankful we worked with them on our big day. They made the planning processes and wedding day seamless and fun and I’m honestly note quite sure how we would have done it all without them. Lexie and her team brought our dreams to life and designed us the most stunning wedding. We started off the planning process with Lexie and later learned that Jocelyn would be our lead planner while Lexie was out on maternity leave. This transition was so easy and we had a blast working with Jocelyn – she coordinated with all of the vendors leading up to the wedding and kept us on schedule our entire day. I didn’t even have to keep track of our timeline on the wedding day – she had everything under control. If you are considering booking Availed for your big day, I’m here to tell you that you 1000% should. It was the best decision we made while planning our wedding.
Taylor and Lexie @ Avail was absolutely wonderful to work with! We worked with Taylor with the month of the wedding coordinator package. Taylor was so on top of things when it came to connecting with all of our vendors and coordinating the wedding with the event planners at the venue. Her and Bella also helped with setting up the Korean ceremony portion of the wedding, which our guest loved so much. Our wedding was so perfect and I can't thank Taylor enough for helping our day go by so smoothly. I would highly recommend Taylor and Avail!
Lexie and her team are the absolute best! I could not recommend them more. When I got engaged, I interviewed over 10 wedding planners and Lexie was by far my top choice - she's straightforward, thoughtful, and takes care of every detail you could imagine. We hired Lexie to design our wedding and it was SO beautiful; she recommended the best vendors and we could not have been more happy with how the day turned out. She'll bring you in to the details that you want to contribute to, but also takes the time to understand your vision so that she can help make some of the decisions for you. Lexie organized every detail not only leading up to the wedding but on the day of - she was amazing. I realized on the day of our wedding that I'd mixed up a detail with the catering orders and Lexie was so calm, swiftly corrected it, and I didn't have to think twice about it.
I recommend Lexie to everyone I know - seriously, I don't know what we would have done without her! Here's your sign to hire Availed!!!!
The only regret I have about hiring Availed Events was not hiring them sooner!! They were a life saver. Wedding planning is stressful and planning a wedding during COVID and moving out of state is extra stressful. Lexie and her team made everything so much easier. After our first meeting a huge weight was lifted. Her planning made our day run so smooth! Her team made it so easy not to worry and just enjoy our day. Thank you guys for everything!
Working with Lexie and her team was wonderful. We hired availed for the month of coordination. From the beginning Lexie was very communicative. Her and Christine helped us get our timeline together and asked a lot of questions we hadn’t even considered. The month of and day of were significantly less stressful because of them! Highly recommend!!
I knew after working for Lexie as an event assistant that I NEEDED to have her on my vendor team. We hired Lexie for Month-Of Coordination and she was a miracle worker! A month before my wedding when my hair and makeup team backed out, she jumped into action and helped me find new artists. She communicated with the rest of my vendors to ensure they were all on the same page, making set up and tear down effortless. On the day of the wedding, it rained pretty much nonstop so we had to change our outdoor ceremony plans, and she never for a second let me worry about it. Any little thing that went wrong was swiftly dealt with by Lexie and Taylor, to the point that I didn't hear about any of it until a few weeks after the wedding. The moment before I walked down the aisle, Lexie and Taylor were there, fluffing my dress and encouraging me. I still tear up when I think about that moment. It was so nice to have familiar faces and trusted friends behind the scenes all day! We along with our friends and family had the best time, all thanks to Availed 🤍
Lexie was great in all things planning! We had to reschedule our 3 day wedding events several times because of COVID, and Lexie was very helpful and supportive. I knew I could just show up to my events without having to stress about the little or big things. Definitely recommend!
We hired Availed back in early 2020, and when we had to move our wedding to mid 2021 because of COVID, they were nothing but sweet, understanding, and so so accommodating. They made a really difficult decision so easy for us, which we SO appreciated. Lexie, Christine, and the entire team at Availed truly care about making your special day perfect! I know for a fact my day would not have been as flawless without them. They genuinely care about making your vision come true and I would recommend them to anyone considering it. They are the best!! ♥️
We hired Lexie and the Availed team for month-of coordination of our wedding in June and could not be happier that we did! They made the day of go so smoothly and went above and beyond so that we and our family were able to fully enjoy day knowing that they had us covered! Lexie was there for us throughout the planning process and really took stress off of our shoulders. We can not recommend the Availed team enough, thank you!!
Lexie and Christine were so great. Our wedding day was amazing and would not have been what it was without them! The team at Availed is so passionate about weddings and their couples and it shoes! They took care of all the little details and made sure the day went smoothly. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a wedding planner and even those who are on the fence. It is 100% worth it and then some. Thank you, Availed ❤️
I recently worked alongside Lexie as a vendor and I can't say enough great things about her! She was easy to communicate with during the planning process, so well organized, and brought a calm presence to a busy wedding day. Thanks so much Lexie!
Lexie was the most amazing month-of-planner, she is so organized, detailed, honest, easy-going, flexible.... and so sweet! I knew I was in good hands when we hired her, I did not worry about a thing the day of our wedding and honestly it was the best night of my life! My husband and I could not have picked a better planner, we are so grateful! Definitely will recommend Lexie and Availed for our engaged friends!
I've worked alongside Lexie as a vendor at a styled shoot and a handful of weddings. She's a joy to work with and she's great with keeping details and timelines in order. Highly recommend!
Having Lexie in our corner with her full planning package was a huge help for us during our normal wedding planning, and then was an absolute life saver after our wedding had to be modified multiple times due to COVID-19. As part of our normal wedding planning, she did a great job of aligning her vendor recommendations with our personalities and vision. She also kept us honest and in tune with the big picture (overall design, budget, etc.) when helping us select each vendor. When COVID-19 came along her help was invaluable as we had to change our date, change our venue, rearrange vendors, cancel invitations, etc. She was always available to talk with us to help tackle all the obstacles that came up while staying positive, organized, and not letting anything fall through the cracks.
When my Fiancé and I got engaged over a year ago, I knew we needed month-of event planning help. My fiancé, was not so sure, and as soon as we met Lexie, his mind changed immediately. Within the first ten minutes of meeting, she said the magically words every Type-A bride wants to hear, "My goal is to not talk to you on your wedding day (outside of a congratulations), otherwise, I have not succeeded as your planner." She was hired instantly, and I mean instantly. While our wedding is scheduled for this September, the pandemic may have other plans for us. Through this very stressful and heartbreaking time, Lexie has offered her continuous support, assistance and guidance. I cannot thank her enough for her continued support, as it's helped more than she'll ever know. We are keeping our fingers crossed that our wedding can still happen, so we can really see her shine the day-of. Even if it does not, I could not recommend Lexie and her team enough!!!
If you are on the fence about getting a wedding planner, do it. And ABSOLUTELY use Availed. My fiance and I (married 2/8) had no idea how much actually went into planning and executing a wedding. We got the 6-month package which was great, because it meant Lexie could guide us through some of the big picture decisions and keep us on track. Lexie is intimately familiar with the vendors and venues throughout the Twin Cities and gave spot-on recommendations throughout the planning process, which saved us SO much time and energy. Seriously, who wants to spend hundreds of hours tirelessly researching vendors? If you haven't planned a wedding before, you are not an expert, and you have NO idea how many different details there are- you will find yourself reading wedding blogs about things you didn't even know you need to think about. Instead of wasting all that time and doing a half-ass job of it, you can hire Availed/Lexie and have one person answer all your questions and tell you exactly how it's going to go down.
Over the 6 months, Lexie communicated promptly and professionally with all of our vendors, advocating for us when there were any bumps in the road. My fiance and I are NOT details people (an understatement), but we didn't have to be with Lexie on our team. Lexie managed details we never anticipated, giving us timelines, check lists, and to do lists, keeping us on track and calm leading up the big day. She was easy to reach, SO responsive, calm, and kind. She took so many burdens off our shoulders so we could focus on being excited. And then on the actual wedding day, it was INCREDIBLE having her onsite. I'll never know if anything went wrong on our big day, because Lexie handled everything behind the scenes. She kept us on track for timeline, juggled vendors coming in and out, and this meant our parents and bridal party had practically 0 responsibilities other than having a good time- that was priceless.
My fiance and I agree without hesitation that of all the 10,000 decisions we made across the wedding process, Lexie was undoubtedly the best one. Yes, a wedding planner is an investment. But it is a smart investment, because it frees up SO much time and stress- you can still be a normal person while planning your wedding. And the best part- your day will run smoothly.
I have so many friends who have used different wedding planners, and as we shared our experience with Availed, they all kept saying "What?! OUR wedding planner didn't do that." Enough said.
I enrolled Lexie and her team in the middle of November and my wedding was 2/1/20. I didn't have colors picked, a design envisioned, or a florist. I couldn't have had a better wedding planning and wedding day experience if I didn't have Lexie. She helped create my design, found the right vendors, and helped me stay in budget. I'm a fairly organized person, but having her tools and thought process guide all the details, just made me that much more effective. Lexie is calm, detailed, experienced, wise, and so sweet. Seriously, the best money I spent was on Lexie - you need her on your big day!
All I can say is I’m SO thankful my mother in law booked Availed. A few months before our fall wedding I started to realize how many little things required decisions/planning that I either didn’t have time for or no idea of where to start. One example is the day of timeline. Thankfully, Lexie is a pro at this and did all the work of coordinating with several vendors to come up with a timeline for us to review. I can definitely say the last month leading up to the wedding was much more pleasant and less stressful with Lexie on our side! Also, having Lexie and her assistant, Ali, available the entire wedding day was amazing. Instead of worrying about whether things were going as planned, how the room flip at Watson Block was going to go, etc. I was able to be present and soak up all the amazing parts of my wedding day. Further, I didn’t need to recruit family members to help with those things so they could relax and enjoy since it was an important day for them, too. Lexie is incredibly professional and organized. She has working relationships with many local vendors and knows what she is doing. Her services were some of the best money spent on our wedding day. If you think you can get by without a coordinator, think again! I cannot imagine how things would have gone without Availed.
Lexie and Christine are INCREDIBLE. We hired Availed for month of coordination and it was the best decision we made throughout our planning process. Lexie’s communication and organization is amazing - Any question or change we had she would reply quickly and handle with ease. Christine was there on day of to handle all the to dos/needs/questions/room flip and she took it all on like a champ. Having her there that day really made my life much easier and stress free! Because of a Lexie and Christine, we were able to enjoy our wedding day (including the parents) to the fullest. It was the best day ever and we have Availed to thank as part of that. They are truly incredible!
We had a great experience working with Lexie and Christine at Availed! They were so professional, well organized, and fun to work with.
We had a tight timelines with our wedding, cocktail hour, and reception being in three different locations and they helped keep everything moving and on track. If any issues did come up they solved them so I didn't need to be involved at all. We would highly recommend!
Lexie and Christine were the absolute dream team! They made our wedding day run so smooth and it was absolutely wonderful not worrying about a thing on our big day because they had it handled. In all honesty, I debated on having a wedding planner, but looking back, it is TOTALLY worth it!! Highly recommend Availed! They are so organized and amazing people :)
I am so thrilled we chose Availed to help with the final month of wedding planning. Lexie and her team were a saving grace and flawlessly executed the last minute details of our wedding. Lexie is incredibly professional, organized, and knowledgable about event planning. Having Lexie was a blessing so we could try to relax and enjoy the last few weeks leading up to the wedding while her team confirmed timelines with vendors and ensured our venue was ready for the big day. You can trust that Availed will have your venue beautifully decorated and the flow of your evening will run smoothly. It was truly the best day ever and highly recommend choosing Availed with your planning process!
I cannot say enough great things about Lexie her company Availed and would recommend her to any bride to be needing some coordination help or really for any event!
My husband and I met with probably 15 coordinators in the area for our wedding and no one really clicked with us like Lexie did. Not only is she a real and down to earth woman but I felt 100% and completely at ease working with her. Being a little bit type A and "particular" it was super important to me that I could fully trust someone to help me execute everything I dreamed of and more on our special day. They did just that!
We originally wanted just a day of coordinator and I am so happy we went with Lexie and her month of coordination package. She was so helpful the weeks leading up to the event, not to mention was there literally any time I had questions for her from the second we hired her!
The day of the event, she and Christine on her team really rolled with the punches and made our event perfect without us even knowing things didn't go perfectly. Her completely calming demeanor but her incredible taste, organization, execution, hard work, hustle, adaptability, (the list goes on and on) made everything run so smoothly, more beautiful and perfect on our day and I COULD NOT be more thankful for her!
Hire Availed. They're the real deal!
Availed was absolutely amazing to work with. Easy to get a hold of, quick responses, and made sure everything was taken care of from the beginning to the end! Thank you Lexie and Availed Events for creating a successful Gala!
We hired Availed for month of planning. Lexie was absolutely wonderful from day one! She was always willing to a answer any questions and provide suggestions. She made the day of the wedding so easy, we didn't have to stress about anything as we all the deatails, set-up and tear down was taken care of. Highly recommend Lexie and her team!! You won't regret it. She's a sweetheart!
Availed was a total dream to work with. We hired Lexie for month-of coordination, but Lexie was available for questions from the moment we hired her. She is super responsive and her emails were always very complete and well thought out, which was sooo appreciated. Lexie is very detail oriented, professional, and overall fun to work with! I can’t put into words just how helpful it was to have Lexie there the few weeks before the wedding, as things were really getting real and all of the vendors were reaching out to confirm super intricate details. Lexie swooped in and took the brunt of all of that work that personally weighs me down & made sure it all executed flawlessly! The week prior to the wedding, I met with Lexie to make sure that I had given her all the info she needed, and it was as if she was a mirror of me- she remembered all of my hyper-intricate details and I felt so confident going into the wedding day knowing that she was there to coordinate everything. The day of the wedding, Lexie & Christine arrived early, with their last-minute essentials kit in tow! The whole day went mostly according to plan, and Lexie & Christine were able to coordinate and flex the things that needed to adjust! I can’t say enough great things about working with Availed. If you’re looking for a wedding planner- stop now; you’ve found it. Availed is incredible 💕
Being a do-it-yourself couple, we definitely procrastinated about hiring a month-of coordinator. However, booking Lexie and her team is definitely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. They were always prompt to answer emails, and great at gently prodding us to finish up last-minute tasks leading up to the day. They devised a great timeline, and coordinated with our vendors so we can take a much needed break the week of the wedding. My husband and I both think of our wedding day as the best day of our lives, and we definitely wouldn't have enjoyed it quite as much without Lexie and Christine, who made the entire day effortless for us.
If you don’t think you need a wedding planner, think again! We hired Lexie to help with the month leading up to our big day, and we’re so glad we did! Lexie is professional, organized, detail-oriented, and made the planning process enjoyable!
When our wedding day finally came, we knew we were in good hands with our day-of-coordinator, Christine. She took the lead on our rehearsal night and made sure our wedding day went off without a hitch. We were able to be in the moment and fully enjoy our day knowing the Availed team was overlooking every detail, every step of the way.
Hiring Availed Event Planning was the best wedding decision we made and we would recommend them to anyone!
Thanks again, Lexie and Christine!
We used Availed for month-of services. Every minute of the day was perfectly planned and coordinated and Lexie was quick to respond to our many questions! I appreciated the quick response time when I had questions. She is incredibly professional and knowledgeable and we are so grateful to her for helping to make our wedding day so perfect. She kept the flow of the day on track.
I was on the fence about hiring a wedding planner due to the expense but Lexie was worth every penny. She is super organized and her experience allowed her to bring up questions that we hadn’t thought of! We had two locations and she was able to tackle both. Her team was able to manage and execute setting out all of our décor; place cards, tables, cocktail hour, everything! We honestly don’t know how we would have gotten it all done without Availed. Their work was SO great and we totally trusted Lexie and her team to keep things on schedule and execute our vision.
Lexie and her team were nothing short of amazing. My mom, husband, and I went into this wedding thinking how are we ever going to put this vision to life. When Lexie came into our lives, she put our minds as ease. We really do not think there is anything Lexie is incapable of doing. She sees beyond the 4 walls of planning a wedding and will help put your dream wedding to life. She offers sound advice, gave us affordable vendor options to work with, and so much more. We are so thankful. When I saw Lexie the day before the wedding, I cried a little bit, not because of stress but because of all of the weight she lifted off of our shoulders. She is nothing short of incredible and we are so thankful. If you’re considering a wedding planner, Availed is your team of talented individuals and I can’t say enough about them. THANK YOU! ♥️
Having 2 daughters getting married a few years apart - the first one I did NOT have a coordinator and for this one I had Availed - it made a huge difference! My day was stress free since I did not have to be the contact for the day. I sent Lexie all the information and she created a timeline and communicated with all the vendors. She was able to troubleshoot a few minor things that came up that I did not need to deal with. I appreciated the quick response time when I had questions. I would highly recommend these services!
I honestly don't know how I would have survived the wedding planning process or the wedding day without Lexie. We used Availed for month-of services and Lexie took away all the stress of the final month of planning. Every minute of the day was perfectly planned and coordinated and she was quick to respond to my many questions! She made sure every single person involved in the wedding knew exactly what they were supposed to be doing and when. She is incredibly professional and knowledgeable and we are so grateful to her for helping to make our wedding day so perfect.
Lexie and Availed were phenomenal to work with. I was on the fence about hiring a wedding planner due to the expense but Lexie was worth every penny. She is super organized and tackles problems before they occur. Everyone in my wedding party and family only had positive things to say about Lexie. Do yourself a favor on your wedding day and hire Availed Events
Hiring Availed Events was the best decision we made. I am a very 'Type-A' planner and didn't think that I needed a coordinator, but I was so wrong! There are so many details and things that come up throughout the process that you do not anticipate. I cannot say enough good things about Lexie and Christine. They were so organized, responsive, knowledgeable, and just generally great to work with! They put me and my husband at ease and were able to answer so many random questions that came up along the way in addition to all the other coordinating duties that came with the month of coordinating package. Our wedding was absolutely perfect thanks in part to Availed handling all the little things that came up throughout the day as well as their preparation leading up to the day. Christine was a rock star and helped to make sure every little detail I had imagined came to life for our special day! I would highly recommend Availed Events!!
My sister and brother-in-law gave us the best wedding gift ever --- Availed Wedding & Event Planning! <3
My husband and I have been married for a month now, and we love reflecting on how much Lexie and her team helped us coordinate our multi-cultural wedding day.
We had three ceremonies (YES! You read right.) --- a Chinese tea ceremony, Laotian ceremony, and American ceremony --- in ONE day. Lexie took on the challenge with grace and poise. Her gift of being detail-oriented and a phenomenal communicator helped facilitated our magical day. Lexie and her team were so respectful towards our dynamic family and guests, which was important to us. She executed our day and tackled hiccups that arose and thought of little things so effortlessly. For instance, the evening before our wedding (9pm), our venue informed Lexie that they no longer had a baby grand piano for our pianist; Lexie was able to find a keyboard overnight in time for the ceremony. She got our meals packed so we could finish it at the hotel as we were so busy greeting family during dinner. Even my dad, who is not emotional, expressed how beautiful the day was from start to finish. Thank you so much for making our wedding day the best day ever.
Best,
The Dangs
I worked with Lexie on a styled shoot at Como Zoo this summer and it was a DREAM! Everything was planned to a T and was ran so smoothly— which is hard enough as is on a photo shoot, not to mention as well as keeping things running so well with animals! It was the perfect day and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to meet and work with such a gem!
I was fortunate to work with Lexie for a styled shoot at the Como Zoo this summer. Lexie was the organizer for this shoot and was such a dream to work with. The theme was Naturally Wild and she provided all the vendors with an amazing mood board to go off of. Lexie always responded quickly if we had questions and was so flexible with new ideas. The day of the shoot everything ran so smoothly! I would highly recommend Lexie to anyone who is looking for an event planner. If you want someone who doesn't crumble under pressure, is so creative, and is a great personality I would recommend Availed Wedding!
I was recently the MOH in my best friend's wedding. The days leading up to the wedding I kept checking with the bride to see what I needed to do/ help with on the wedding day to which she replied "nothing". She had hired Lexie as a wedding planner and it made my job as the Matron of Honor so easy! All of us bridesmaids just got to sit back and enjoy the wedding day. Lexie was seriously amazing and had every detail covered. My friend was probably the most relaxed bride I've ever seen and I think a big part of it was that she had Lexie. Thank you thank you Lexie for helping the wedding and reception go flawlessly! If you are on the fence about hiring a wedding planner I would highly recommend Availed Wedding & Event Planner!
We absolutely loved Lexie and Availed Events. Hiring this company was the best money we spent for our wedding. Lexie is incredibly prompt and responsive. She doesn’t forget one detail. She has everything covered, yet has a calm presence making you feel at peace ahead of time and on the big day. You will not regret choosing Availed Events!
Having Lexie as our day-of coordinator was the best decision! Being a project manager myself, I knew I needed a day-of coordinator who was extremely attentive to detail and organized, and Lexie was all that plus more! I had 110% confidence that she would execute well and handle anything that might bubble up. It was so nice going into my wedding day knowing she had everything under control. Her presence is delightful and she truly is amazing! I would recommend Lexie and Availed Events to anyone!
We hired Lexie as our wedding day coordinator and we are so glad that we did! Lexie helped us pull all of the details together for our wedding. She was able to contact vendors for us and she helped us with every last detail of the wedding! SO happy that Lexie was our coordinator! Would recommend her to anyone!
