I am an immensely busy resident and was planning my wedding from Chicago, so I knew I needed some help. I booked Alicia about 10 months before my wedding and had done most of the big things - venue, photo, video, church - prior to hiring her. I... asked one of the people at the reception site who they would recommend for wedding planners and they said Alicia and they were right! Alicia helped me with everything else and kept me on an appropriate timeline. She was an invaluable asset as the day approached coordinating the rehearsal, making timelines, contacting the vendors, and easing my anxiety. She has worked with all different vendors in Lexington and they always said "she is the best! we have worked with her several times." It was nice to have someone who was well known around the city. My wedding day was perfect and everything flowed seamlessly. She even calmed down one of my bridesmaids who left sobbing in the middle of the ceremony. My bridesmaid is going through a divorce, but she calmed her down and helped get her back into place at a good time and no one even noticed. She is worth the investment!
