Where do I even start. If I could describe Wanderlust Weddings and Events in a few words, they would be, “WOW, AMAZING, MUST HAVE, STRESS FREE, EASY”.
When I started planning my wedding, I was and still am a little clueless. Both my husband ...and I come from Asian background, so most of the weddings that are done are usually just done in a restaurant. We knew a little bit of what we wanted through friends and Google, but we knew that we needed a little help. We also didn’t have a wedding party or any family expertise to assist with our vision.
Wanderlust was recommended to me on Facebook and I reached out. We met up with Ali and Sam to discuss what services would best suite our needs. We let Ali and Sam know that we were trying to stick with a tight budget. I wanted to point this out because with some other vendors that I had expressed his to, I was made to feel that I wasn’t as important or “it is what it is take it or leave it”. Ali, Sam, and Taylor NEVER made us feel that way, they were so understanding and made us not feel bad for not wanting to spend our life’s savings on a wedding.
We decided to go with Day of Services with Wanderlust. I know technically, that doesn’t really start until about 2-3 months prior to the wedding, but let me tell you, Ali was my key contact, and she responded whenever I text, called, or emailed her. Ali went ABOVE and BEYOND for me. Ali never made me feel like it was me and her 100 other brides, she always made me feel like it was only me; Not only that, but talking to her was like chatting with a friend, easy and fun. Ali is so very knowledgeable about weddings and the industry. We decided last minute to get a florist and she was able to provide me a list of wonderful and budget friendly florists. She helped us along with planning the timeline of our wedding, which is actually harder than you think! All the little things I didn’t think of, she thought of.
When it came to the day of the wedding. My husband and I have literally said EVERYDAY how thankful we were for Ali and Taylor (I’m not even exaggerating). They made sure all my guests were where they need to be, they made sure all my vendors were doing what they needed to do, and they made sure we were where we needed to be. Ali and Taylor were never pushy, but it was so crazy how time flew, so to have Ali and Taylor say, “Hey Jo, about a 10-15 minute warning before XYZ starts” was a God send. My parents and our guests even commented on how smoothly and how wonderful Ali and Taylor were. When I met with Ali, I told her that I was very adamant about getting all the formalities out of the way so I could start dancing, and Ali and Taylor made that happen for me.
Not only did Ali and Taylor make sure that our day went smoothly, they also made sure our vision came to life. Wanderlust is legit your one stop shop. We rented candles and some decorative items from their massive inventory, which saves on us having to go out and buy them ourselves. We did have wonderful vendors that did our flowers, lounge, and sweetheart table (which turned out beautifully), but Ali and Taylor made sure that it all came together in one cohesive vision. Ali and Taylor also decorated with the items that we rented for them and it just came together absolutely beautifully
I will say, if I plan any future events, Wanderlust is the way to go. Thank you so much for making this truly the best day of my life and making it so easy Ali, Taylor, and Sam!!
