Owner
I am married with to an amazing man, who gave me an amazing bonus daughter. We have 2 dogs and a cat that we adore! When I am not working I can be found spending my time reading, gardening, baking, or playing video games.
My love for details and organizational skill helps me be a perfect fit as a wedding planner. As I stepped in to a planner role for several friends' and family weddings over the years, I discovered I truly enjoy doing it, so why not make a business doing something I love?
I would be honored to be considered to help make your special day as special as you!

Marissa was absolutely amazing to work with! She made the whole planning process so much easier and less stressful. As well as on my wedding day, she made sure everything went on time, made sure we were fed and helped so much with set up and take down. Her communication before, during and even after the wedding shows how much she cares and loves what she does. I cannot thank her enough for ensuring our day was perfect! I will forever recommend Lavender & Rye Events!!

Marissa was perfect. She built timelines for everyone, took over the day of coordination from me (the MOH), which allowed me to actually enjoy my daughters wedding. Marissa met the Bride & Bridesmaids at the hotel to ensure they left on time, she helped decorate the venue with of our personal touches. She herded cats (the groomsmen), ensured the reception activities all happened as planned, and she even helped us pack up at the end of it all.
Hiring Marissa is the best investment I made in the wedding budget! I was able to comfortably and confidently turn everything over to Marissa on the Wedding Day allowing me to be the MOH and not a chicken with my head cut off. Thank you Marissa!!!

Marissa, I can't thank you enough for all the support you provided during our wedding planning journey. You truly had a remarkable way of alleviating so much of the stress that comes with such a big event. On our special day, you made everything feel just right, exactly as I had envisioned. Your dedication and care meant the world to us, and we are incredibly grateful for everything you did. You not only helped everything run smoothly, but you also made the day so enjoyable for us. Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable and for being such a wonderful coordinator. We appreciate you more than words can express.

Marissa helped our Pirates of the Caribbean themed wedding come true in a very short amount of time! My wife and I were initially unsure about needing a coordinator for our wedding but decided just a couple months before to look for someone. Marissa answered the call and was fantastic to have for the day-of. She made sure that the timeline flowed without any issues and took all our stress away, ensuring that we were able to enjoy OUR day. Definitely worth every doubloon!

Marissa was absolutely amazing! She helped us every step of the planning process, and even more so due to a deployment hindering availability from our end. We recommend Marissa to anyone who is getting married, who feels as though they know what they are doing or not since she has been an incredible help through it all and has been a joy to be around.

Marissa is great at what she does! Very professional & prompt about everything. We were clueless about a lot of things but with her help we got everything we could’ve asked for! She did great meeting with vendors for us day of, setting up decor, helping us find the right vendor for us & much more! I couldn’t have asked for anyone better, she did an outstanding job!

Marissa was our day of coordinator for a 170 guest wedding and she was so great! She set up the decor exactly the way I wanted it, she put out many fires (most of which I didn't even know about until after the fact) and ensured that our day ran smoothly. We would not have been able to get our wedding off the ground without all of her help the day of. I would highly recommend Rylant Events & Weddings!!

We hired Marissa to help us on the day of the wedding. She was very organized and knowledgeable about how the day would unfold. She met with us twice prior to the wedding and answered all of our questions. It was a great help to know she was there to meet the vendors, and be sure that everyone was set up while we were at the wedding. She handled all of the little things like lighting candles, greeting guests, making sure bride and groom had their meal, ushering guests to buffet line and taking care of tips at nights end. She also kept us on schedule so that we would be out of the venue at the agreed-upon time. She helped pack up and get everything to cars before leaving which was a very big help to a tired mother of the bride! She was a big help and it was a great night!

During the planning process she was very helpful and always asked if there was anything i needed. When the day got closer we spoke more about things that would need to be set up, my overall vision and what would happen day of. When the big day came and there were things discussed multiple times on multiple occasions that i noticed were not set up. Because of this there was no unity ceremony, hardly anyone used our audio/guest book, and some decor was not setup. I wish there was a final walk through done before the guest arrived to make sure everything was set up correctly.
There is more I could comment on regarding her lack of attention to detail and professionalism but I understand this is a new business so I suggest people are mindful of that prior to booking.

unately, with such a small setup window given by the venue and unexpected bad weather, sometimes it becomes hard to accommodate all of the couple's expectations. If you would like to have a conversation regarding your experience, you have my cell phone number and can reach out at your convenience.

Throughout the entire wedding planning process & the inevitable stresses from wedding day, Marissa was such a great help through it all. She was so much more than just our Day Of Coordinator. She was so incredibly helpful during the planning process. She was always there to answer any questions or concerns I had, even sending me vendor recommendations for my wildest ideas. Vendors whom I wouldn’t have found if she hadn’t had taken the time to research for me. On Wedding Day, Marissa came armed with plenty of help to get the job done. She truly brought our dreams to life! I swear she was everywhere at once that day. I truly cannot say enough about my experience with Marissa. She will become more than just your day of coordinator, she will become your friend. My wedding experience would’ve been so stressful if we didn’t have her. I will forever recommend her and her skills to any future bride I come across!
