I’m passionate about helping couples bring their vision to life and being part of such a meaningful day. With a love for planning, organization, and creativity, I make sure every detail comes together seamlessly.
My favorite part of a wedding day is watching everything fall into place and seeing couples relax and truly enjoy every moment. Behind the scenes, I quietly handle the little hiccups so you never have to worry. Detail-oriented, friendly, and attentive, my goal is to create a stress-free, beautiful experience from start to finish.
When I’m not coordinating weddings, I manage a small boutique and handle marketing and social media. In my free time, I enjoy crafting and staying active. My best advice is to trust your team. Your day will fly by, and it deserves to be fully enjoyed!
Alyssa Hilmes
Owner
I’m Alyssa or Lyss (ha), and I’m so happy you’re here! My love for the wedding industry began in 2021 when I planned my own wedding and fell in love with every detail—big and small—that makes a wedding day truly special. From selecting the perfect finishing touches to watching everything come together, I discovered just how meaningful thoughtful planning can be.
No day goes perfectly—but that’s okay. When surprises happen, you want someone who isn’t your Maid of Honor or mom stepping in. That’s where my team and I come in. We handle the behind-the-scenes details so your loved ones can be fully present—and you can enjoy every moment.
Jess
Day-of Coordinator
I love seeing all the details, people, and moments come together to create a truly one-of-a-kind celebration. Getting to know each couple and learning their story—through conversations and the choices they make for their day—is one of my favorite parts of wedding coordination.
Creative, meticulous, and heartfelt, I bring both passion and calm to every wedding day. No matter what comes up, my superpower is staying steady and focused so everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.
When I’m not coordinating, you’ll find me painting and designing, inspired by colors, patterns, and beautiful aesthetics—creativity that carries into every event I help bring to life.
My best advice is to take a deep breath. This day is yours!
Onna
Day-of Coordinator
I discovered my love for weddings more than 30 years ago while planning my own, and what began as a personal celebration quickly grew into a lasting passion. I love blending creativity, organization, and thoughtful design to transform a couple’s vision into a seamless and meaningful experience.
My favorite moment of the day is the very start of the ceremony — especially watching the groom’s reaction when he first sees his bride. That genuine emotion never gets old and perfectly captures the heart of the celebration.
With a calm, attentive, and detail-focused approach, I manage timelines, vendors, and last-minute details behind the scenes so everything flows effortlessly. My best advice is to be present, trust your team, and fully embrace the moments you’ve worked so hard to create.
Allison
Day-of Coordinator
I’ve always loved bringing people together — from corporate events to family celebrations — and weddings are the perfect blend of both. I thrive in fast-paced environments and love turning a couple’s vision into a seamless, meaningful experience they can truly enjoy.
On wedding days, you’ll usually find me behind the scenes managing timelines, coordinating vendors, and handling the little details before anyone even realizes they need attention. My coordination style is calm, proactive, and detail-oriented, allowing couples to stay present and soak in every moment without stress.
My favorite part of the day is right after the ceremony, when the excitement shifts and the celebration officially begins. My goal is simple: for you to feel supported, relaxed, and fully able to enjoy one of the best days of your life.
Alyssa F
Day-of Coordinator
I love being able to care for each couple and give them total peace of mind on their wedding day. Knowing they can relax and enjoy every moment while I handle the details is what makes this work so meaningful to me.
My favorite part of the day is watching the couple fully settle in and celebrate, knowing everything is running smoothly behind the scenes. From managing timelines to solving unexpected hiccups, I make sure nothing gets in the way of your joy.
Calm, reliable, and supportive, I bring a steady presence to every wedding day. My superpower is staying calm no matter what comes up, so you never have to feel stressed.
Outside of weddings, I work in account management support and love bringing that same organization and dedication to my couples. My best advice is to be present. You’ve planned for this day, now it’s time to celebrate all of your hard work!
Hailey
Day-of Coordinator
I discovered my love for weddings and events while working at a travel agency that produced large-scale events, where I quickly realized how much I enjoy being hands-on and bringing celebrations to life. I love helping couples see their vision come together and creating an experience where everyone can simply enjoy the moment.
My favorite part of a wedding day is when everything falls into place and you can look around the room and see pure happiness everywhere. Watching guests celebrate and couples fully take in the day makes all the behind-the-scenes work worth it.
With a steady, patient, and resourceful approach, I keep timelines running like clockwork while managing both the big moments and the smallest details — from the marriage license to the pens used to sign it. My advice for couples is simple: stay close, look at each other often, and focus on being present, not perfect.
Sarah
Day-of Coordinator
I discovered my love for weddings while planning my own and feeling so grateful for the vendors who made the day feel seamless and special. It showed me what an honor it is to be part of such a meaningful moment, and I love helping create that same experience for other couples.
My favorite part of the day is when couples see each other for the first time — that emotion and excitement is something truly special to witness. I also love when the dance floor fills up and the celebration is in full swing (and I’m always happy to help get the party started if needed).
With a supportive, friendly, and resourceful approach, I meet couples where they are and adapt to whatever the day calls for — whether that’s solving a problem, offering a calming presence, or keeping everything on track behind the scenes. My advice is simple: focus on each other, trust your team, and soak in every moment — it all goes by so quickly.

I was so hesitant to book a day of coordinator, but i'm so glad I did. We had already booked our vendors and venue and really needed someone to help us execute the day. Alyssa help...
ed plan and organize the day of schedule with all of our vendors, venue, and wedding party. She exceeded my expectations through the planning process up until the wedding day! We cannot thank her enough. She's extremely attentive and organized and made the day go by perfectly. Not only is she able to think on her toes and pivot if needed, she is also super easy to work with and got along with my family and friends who helped to set up! She has a great eye and was able to execute my vision beautifully. Genuinely a kind human and did it all with grace. I should also add that she accomplished all of this while in the final weeks of her pregnancy. She is an absolute powerhouse! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

way to make sure I was on top of making the decisions and booking vendors on time. She ran our rehearsal the day before, and even had an assistant with her on the wedding day to make sure everything ran smoothly. She even made a beautifully formatted day-of-binder for us with all key information and day of phone numbers. She brings a day-of emergency kit, and helped clean and put away all of our decor at the end of the night. She has even her own inventory of decorI would strongly strongly recommend working with Alyssa for your wedding!!

ed, and knows lots of people to help in so many ways. She felt like a friend I could chat with more than someone I hired. On the day of, I wasn't even 1/3 of the stressed I thought I would be, because Alyssa handled every problem before I even had time to think about it. She's truly wonderful to work with and a great person to have on your wedding team.

handled to perfection by her. I was able to present and relaxed during our wedding day truly due to the fact that I knew Alyssa would go to the ends of the Earth to ensure things were covered. She handled our set up, helped manage our timeline, communicated with vendors, fluffed my train, took BTS photos, made sure I had something to drink and/or eat, and about 1000 other things that day. Alyssa, you are a rockstar and I can't thank you enough!

m helping keeping every timeline on track, to setting up decor, to steaming dresses and providing Bobby pins to bridesmaids, my niece ripped her dress and she pulls out a sewing kit and helps fix it, she even saved me with deodorant at one point throughout the day. Another thing I loved is that she took pictures behind the scenes so the next morning when I woke up I had pictures to look back on instead of waiting weeks for my photographers photos. She helped my family with clean up at the end of the night too. She never missed a beat and made it where myself and my family members weren’t running around completing tasks and could actually enjoy the day. She is professional, communicative, kind, and someone you can trust on one of the biggest days of your life. Would recommend her a million times!
