Hiring Alex was the best thing we did when planning our wedding!! She took our vision and brought it to life in a way that I didn't know was possible. She is beyond creative!! We planned a 3 day wedding weekend with 4 events, and each one was absolutely perfect. She made the wedding process clear cut, fun, and stress free. Hire Alex, you won't regret it!!!
It's tough to know where to start with a review for Alex of XO Moreau because everything she touches turns to gold, as in the most vibrantly beautiful, well-designed and expertly organized event you've ever attended. We started working with Alex in late 2019 and by early 2020 she supported us logistically and emotionally as we chose to bump our wedding one year from 2021 to 2022. We were so appreciative of our her calm and understanding as we navigated tough decisions at this time.
When we came back together to plan our April 2022 wedding, I was anxious and excited for Alex to make our colorful, fun, spring design come to life. She more than delivered. She understood the vision and vibe perfectly. Alex remained mindful of our budget by picking out design elements with the biggest pop and bang for your buck. While I loved her execution of my personal ideas, I was most impressed with her creativity, the elements that really make an XO Moreau event extra special -- unique twists on traditional details and unexpected entertainment that helped us create a memorable event.
When our wedding day finally came, Alex was exactly the calm that we all needed. She had every small detail under control and did it all with ease. She cares deeply about her wedding couples and ensures their day is even better than in their dreams. And she even makes time to attend to the smallest of details like blowing leaves away from the front door guest entrance -- she is on top of every small detail! I should also add that her excitement and joy is infectious in the best way, throughout the entire planning process -- she is as invested in your day as you are, genuinely excited to help you bring it all together, and every step of the way her positivity squashed my anxieties and gave me the confidence to focus on myself and my partner on our wedding day.
Alex also cares deeply about her vendor relationships and has the best recommendations who can come together seamlessly to make your special day perfect. If I had the budget I would choose XO Moreau 100 more times, for every birthday and big event still to come in life, because her ideas are the epitome of a fun-filled, blow-your-mind beautiful, wildly creative celebration that brings joy to everyone in attendance. Best wedding planner in Austin, hands down.
I found Alex on Instagram months before my husband proposed to me. When I saw her Instagram I knew instantly that she was going to be the one to plan my wedding. Alex from beginning to end made the wedding planning process the easiest it can be and was so fun to work with.
Alex planned the wedding of my dreams!!!
It was soooo beautiful and was exactly how I had pictured! I don’t have enough words for how thankful I am! Alex was worth every penny! All of our family and friends said it was the most beautiful and well executed wedding they have ever been too! I am so glad Alex was the one who planned our wedding & would highly recommend her to any couple getting married!
If I can offer one piece of advice to any newly engaged couple it would be: Hire XO Moreau.
From our initial call with Alex to saying good night after the reception, we never once faltered in our decision to work with her. She is funny, kind, diligent and truly one of the best people to have around you in a time that can be hectic and overwhelming.
As with any wedding there were personal ups and downs during the whole process, ie. family issues, budgeting roadblocks, global pandemic, etc. but not once did I stress about how they would affect the actual wedding day. We just knew that XO Moreau would be there to game plan with us and make it work.
She nailed our aesthetic preferences and style in one shot and made it come to life in a way that we still can't believe. Our wedding was beautiful and perfect and magical and whimsical and everything we wanted it to be. All of Alex's vendor recommendations were an absolute hit and people told us over and over again how it seemed to be the perfect representation of “us.” (Which is really just a testament to how much of an effort Alex made to get to know us.)
At the end of the evening we could honestly say that if anything went wrong or was out of place, we had no idea. We can look back at the day and night and truly say it was perfect.
I will forever tell people that the best decision we made during the wedding planning process was hiring Alex and the team at XO Moreau. So if you can, do it!
After almost two years with Alex - I'll be honest, I feel lost without her. Our wedding FINALLY took place on 12.31.2021 and I'm already wondering what sort of alternative party I can plan to hire her for.
She's your best friend, the confidant that you need, the inspiration you dream of, the ball buster your amazing wedding needs, the deflector your complicated family requires...
She's the magical fairy that is there wherever and whenever you need her, but also never there anywhere much.. She has perfected this whimsical, dreamy role and your wedding will be better if she's a part of it.
Alex has been our constant - she has rolled with the punches and enabled us to never lose hope.
This girl traveled to OREGON in a snow storm to make sure we had the wedding of our dreams after we were originally going to get married in Austin, Texas. I can't even calculate that level of commitment.
Tired yet? Because I could easily go on...
Sigh, long story short. Bring Alex onto your team - let her be your leader.. I can absolutely guarantee you wont regret it. You can thank me later <3
Hiring Alex was easily the best decision we made in the wedding planning process! As soon as we had our first meeting, I knew she would be able to design and execute our dream day. She was beyond amazing and exceeded all of our expectations! I’m really not sure how we could’ve made it through everything without her. She made the planning and design process so easy and actually fun! I can’t thank her for enough for her patience as I asked a million questions. We got so many comments from guests all night about how smooth the day was and we didn’t feel stressed at all. The design came out perfect and we had so much fun. If we could do it all over again we would 100% have Alex plan it all!
Alex is amazing, full stop. We considered hiring a coordinator for month-of services only, and can I say, Alex's design+coordination package was amazing. She put together the wedding of our dreams, with DETAILED instructions on how to implement everything. Seriously everything. She then took over in last minute details with vendors starting two months out. She took all the stress of the little last minute questions others had - I just directed them her way. I can not recomment XO Moreau enough.
Alex is so, so incredible at what she does. We used Alex for day-of coordination and design, where she truly went above and beyond.
It was an easy decision to use Alex for design services as I struggled with picturing my ideas coming together in real life. The design board(s) Alex created were organized and well thought out. She listened to my feedback while encouraging me to branch out. I am so incredibly thankful for her creativity and willingness to collaborate, as she helped make the ambiance and “vibe” of my wedding better than I could have ever imagined.
As for day-of coordination, planning a wedding is not easy; add a pandemic on top of that, it can get really interesting. I cannot think of a better person than Alex to have on your wedding team, as her genuine kindness, positive energy, and confidence helped alleviate any and all anxiety I had during the whole process, especially when it started to pour minutes prior to the ceremony starting.
My wedding could not have been what it was without Alex. I, along with my now-husband and family, are forever grateful for her!
I can't say enough AMAZING things about Alex. She made my wedding planning a breeze and I actually could not have done it without her. Her vibe is very calm and even when I was being Bridezilla (which was often) she very calmly helped/fixed the problem and left me wondering why I was freaking out. Her design board was 100% my style and my wedding was absolutely perfect and everything I wanted & more. Also-I really wanted a mechanical bull for my wedding and couldn't find one anywhere and she got me one in one day. I LOVE HER AND YOU WILL TOO!
Words cannot express how much I appreciate and admire Alex. From the moment I met her, I knew that our wedding would be in good hands. What I didn't know is just how much I would grow to LOVE every step of the wedding planning process. As a full time PhD student and researcher, I was worried that wedding planning during a pandemic would be overwhelming and exhausting. However, Alex made wedding planning the most wonderful experience and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.
Alex is a force to be reckoned with and someone who has a true gift. She isn't pushy, but you can trust that she will give you her honest opinions and insight. She went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding was not only the wedding we dreamed of, but a wedding that truly represented who we are as a couple.
As I look back at our incredible wedding last weekend, my heart is overflowing with love, joy, and immense gratitude for the love and time she poured into our special day. I will forever be thankful that she came into our lives.
Alex- If you're reading this...thank you for being you. You make the world a brighter place and we will always have a special place for you in our hearts! Cheers, Hugs Kisses...we did it!
Where do I even start?! Alex definitely had me with “the chillest wedding planner you will ever meet” – but after Instagram stalking her gorgeous, unique designs and exchanging some very friendly messages, I knew I needed to hire XO Moreau Weddings to help plan our big day! Her guidance started with helping us figure out what level of service we needed! We ultimately went with the Design & Coordination package and am so thankful I had Alex not only for day-of coordination but to bring our wedding vision to life. I knew I wanted a modern, minimalist design but thanks to Alex, we added plenty of “funky and fun” elements to make our day feel very special and very us.
We had the pleasure of working with Alex for 21 months, as we had a mid-2020 date that we ultimately decided to postpone to 2021 due to COVID-19 risks. For our initial planning and design, Alex nailed what we were looking for, including all the details I didn’t even think to incorporate, in an initial design board + email that laid out exactly what I needed to do to lock in our vendors. Her recommendations for vendors were amazing, as she knows who to work with based on your design and vibe!
Looking back, postponing our wedding was nowhere near as stressful or hectic as I would have thought, only because Alex was there with us for every decision and laid out exactly what I should do and when to move our date and update all of our contracts. Not only that, she totally rolled with some of the design changes I wanted to incorporate as we approached our new date and handled all of the rental and décor comms to make it happen. If you can tend to be indecisive like me, Alex is the perfect mix of chill +understanding yet decisive to nudge you towards just getting things done. Purple is officially my favorite color 💜
Finally, if you have a first-time officiant I totally recommend securing Alex for your rehearsal as well! She calmed what little nerves Jake + I had leading up to our ceremony, and was the kick of confidence I needed to go for a bolder bridal entrance – I can’t wait to get our photos back to re-live our design and our day.
If you’re still reading this… GO LOCK ALEX IN NOW! You will have a stress-free, beautiful wedding day with a kick-ass team by your side :) -Michelle & Jake
Alex and the XO Moreau team were wonderful. We used XO Moreau for day of coordination (starting 2 months out) and initial design services. Alex helped us distill our wedding vision and prepared a beautiful design board that guided us through the rest of our planning process until she took over again. Aside from generally being wonderfully kind and professional, Alex was a go-to for any questions along the way and one of our biggest sources of excitement and support. On the day of our wedding, she arrived and took charge of everything; I didn't have to lift a finger. Many of my family members later told me how impressed they were with Alex's ability to help and take care of each and every detail of the day.
Overall, XO Moreau was a fantastic addition to our wedding team and a very key part to helping our day be full of joy and next-level celebration! It was a ceremony and party for the books and we are so grateful to Alex and her team!
Alex is simply incredible. She is the kindest, most laid-back, fun wedding planner you will ever meet. But with that being said, she knows how to get things done. We hired Xo Moreau Weddings for her design & coordination package, and I would highly suggest you do the same! I had a vague vision and color scheme in my head, and Alex created a 28 page, detailed design board that brought each and every aspect of our wedding to life on paper, from the ceremony site to the sign in table. She gave us specific options for items and decor that were either easily available online, or through local Austin vendors. This made securing/finding rentals super easy, she essentially did it for us! Her attention to detail and unique ideas really brought the wedding to a different level. For example, she suggested we have a specialty drink display table outdoors during cocktail hour, with pansy flowers in each glass. This ended up being one of my favorite details of the entire evening. Alex was also a huge support during the last month before our wedding... working hard to work out issues and logistics, finalize our timeline and other details that we would have been struggling with (and majorly worrying about) without her. The guides she gives you makes nailing down day-of details simple. Her communication is stellar & was always keeping me in the loop, as well as answering all my silly questions, lol. Oh also, she helped us plan this event in under six months!
Honestly, if you're getting married in the Austin area you absolutely can't go wrong with Alex. The wedding she helped us design was absolutely magical, and encompassed everything I wanted and more. Me and my husband both agree that it was the best evening of our lives... everything was absolutely perfect. Alex, THANK YOU for creating such a beautiful day for both of us. - With love, the Huttons
I hired Alex as my “day of coordinator” but she started 2 months out. She really was the biggest help in those last 8 weeks. She helped me book the last couple of vendors that we needed to add on last minute and all the final details with linen colors, cake stand (that I completely forgot to bring!), and even charger plate colors. I don’t think this wedding would’ve gone nearly as smoothly if I didn’t have her! Seriously made everything so easy for me!
Alex Moreau is the best. THE BEST! Hands down, you can stop your search for a wedding planner or day-of coordinator because there is no one better to work with! She is an absolute dream, from the initial phone call all the way to the big day! We hired Alex as our day-of coordinator and to design our wedding vision board. Her attention to detail and knowledge of the latest wedding trends was shown through every deck, email, and any other content she sent our way. Also, not to mention she has the best relationships with other vendors in the industry. You will absolutely fall in love with her because she has this magical talent that makes you feel like she is your best friend while also maintaining the utmost professionalism. There is no need to stress about anything on your big day because she is constantly thinking 10 steps ahead and goes above and beyond to ensure that all of your dreams come true. She is basically your wedding fairy godmother! Working with Alex is SO FUN and the best decision you can make in your wedding planning journey! I wish getting married every year was a thing, just so we could work with Alex again! - Just hire Alex she is honestly the best in the business. We will never ever stop thanking her!!
From start to finish, Alex went above and beyond for us. We had a very unique wedding experience - like most couples of 2020. Of course, due to COVID, our original plans changed drastically. Our dream day got rescheduled, but Alex never skipped a beat. We had a backyard ceremony, as well as our big originally planned day. She made sure we were taken care of, even in the midst of our insane world circumstances. We weighed all the options with her. She guided us and made sure we were working in the right steps, provided timelines, questionnaires, lists - all the amazing wedding things!! Every part of working with her was efficient, organized, and overall the whole reason our day went so incredibly smoothly. Being a wedding photographer, I couldn’t settle for anything less than the best when it came to planning. Alex was so much more than that. We are eternally grateful for her planning TWO weddings, scheduling and rescheduling our honeymoon, and truly making sure every single detail was in place. She created such a beautiful day once the big wedding day came, and made sure every part of the day was out of our hands so we could relax and enjoy every bit of it! At the end of it all, we know we’ve gained a friend. Can we plan wedding #3 now?!
I previously wrote a review about how amazing Alex was during the entire planning process, especially with rescheduling all of my vendors to my new date (I had to postpone my original date). Our wedding has officially come and gone, and I am equally as impressed with Alex as ever. During the wedding day, she made sure everything was executed flawlessly, which included coordinating over 25 different vendors. Thanks to Alex, my dream wedding came to life. Everything went off without a hitch and Alex was professional, kind and courteous throughout it all. She was attentive to my husband and I's needs throughout the day and really made us feel like VIPs. I cannot recommend Alex enough -- you will be SO glad that you hired her for your big day!
ALEX IS THE ONLY CHOICE!!! Alex brought my wildest wedding dreams to life! I really thought my vision would be a little too out there, but she took it, ran with it and brought it even further. She created the most beautiful design board for us, kept us on track and coordinated with all of the vendors so we didn't have to worry about the little things. When the actual wedding day came, there was no stress. I didn't have to think about a thing. All I did was have fun and enjoy the best day ever (which I didn't think was possible). I wish I could work with Alex over and over. Do you think people would get annoyed with yearly vow renewals?? We love you, Alex!!! You are the best choice we made!!!! <3
From start to finish, Alex was my rock throughout this whole wedding planning process. She made every decision easy and answered every question that came up. She was supportive, patient, kind, and made me feel at peace despite the stresses of planning a wedding. When we had to postpone our wedding from May to December due to Covid, she didn’t hesitate to work her magic so we could keep the same vendors and make our vision come to life. I cannot recommend her enough as she felt more like a confidant and friend as this process went on. If you are planning a wedding, Alex is the best choice you can make to help your wedding dreams come true! She is truly talented and has found her calling in life, and I feel very fortunate to have worked with her. ❤️
Having Alex as my wedding planner was by far the best decision I could have made!! She was worth every penny and more! I thought, because I had been planning a wedding in my head and on Pinterest for so long, that I was just going to hire a day-of coordinator. And I couldn't happier that I decided to book her for design and coordination as well. She NAILED my vision from our very first conversation, that I didn't have to change a single thing from the very first mood board she sent over! She just got me and it was so comforting and such a relief to know that she fully understood my vision from the very beginning. She answered my million questions and helped put my mind at ease while planning a wedding during Covid which was no easy task. She also has access to the most amazing vendors and even found me a videographer the week of my wedding after my original cancelled on me. She's beyond talented and creative at what she does and there was no better person to have by my side on my big day. I'll be forever grateful for her!!!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Alex. When we met her, I had a new born baby and was working 50 hours a week. It was clear from the beginning that we needed a full service wedding planner- someone who could actualize my dreams and understand my vision. The wedding Alex created for us was beyond anything I could ever have imagined. It was the most perfect day, and totally us. Alex rolled with the punches, and made sure we were happy every second. I can’t recommend her enough- she is the person who will give you the wedding of your dreams! (Also helps that she has the BEST personality- and is so easy to work with!)
If I could give Alex six stars, I would. From our initial meeting all the way to days after the wedding, she was absolutely amazing!! To start, Alex was able to execute our vision perfectly in her design board after a few initial conversations. From there, she guided us along in the process of selecting vendors and asking all of the right questions. She even has an onboarding document with all of the "need to know" things for a wedding and kept everything organized in Google Docs that we could access at any time. We had a long engagement, but Alex was great about touching base regularly to make sure things stayed on track. After Covid hit, I have no idea what we would've done without her. She was the calming voice of reassurance for us and made sure things still went off without a hitch and kept us updated on local mandates/regulations. On the day of our wedding, Alex was an absolute rockstar. She made sure everyone knew their role, all guests followed guidelines and made sure all was well with me and my fianceé. Anything we needed, she was right there and ready to take on. We will also be using Alex's travel agency for our honeymoon next year because we know she will help us plan an amazing trip.
We didn't just get a wedding planner with Alex -- we also gained an awesome friend as well! She is the sweetest and funniest person and made us feel so at ease and comfortable with the entire wedding process! We wish we could have another wedding just to do it all over again!
XO Moreau helped us navigate the treacherous waters that were planning and rescheduling a pandemic wedding. Her expertise and professionalism made for a flawless day. She made everything we envisioned come to life and made everyone feel welcomed. I honestly could not have imagined our wedding day without her. She was a pleasure to work with and really quarterbacked our wedding ensured that we were as stress-free as possible on our day.
Alex went above and beyond to ensure that we had the wedding of our dreams! Never once did I have any doubts! She was incredibly responsive to my millions of questions and was so helpful with everything and always offered the best advice. I knew that as soon as we hired her we were in the best of hands! The design board that she put together for us was exactly what we had envisioned and getting to see everything come together was an absolute dream come true. She is AMAZING!!!!
Hiring Alex for my big day was the BEST decision I’ve ever made. From start to finish, Alex was on top of it and was an absolute joy to work with. Planning a wedding during COVID was tall ask, but Alex went above-and-beyond to help execute everything flawlessly. Alex’s warm, professional touch made me feel like I wasn’t “alone” in planning our event during such a difficult time.
Alex was our biggest cheerleader and allowed us to be abatable during the ever-changing landscape of COVID. In addition to her expertise and her knack for making wedding planning fun, Alex was an excellent communicator. Not only was she prompt in every response but was extremely thoughtful in how she guided us as we executed on our dream vision.
Above all - Alex was an absolute dream to work with and I’d highly encourage all future brides to hire her. Alex – thank you for making my big day a roaring success in 2020!
xo Moreau has been there for us every. step. of. the way. We hired Alexandra back in early 2019 to help us with designing our wedding and to be our day of coordinator. Alexandra knows the wedding business, and she was my go to person for any question I had about the process, what to do, layout, etc. And she is SO positive, she is exactly what a bride needs when planning - positive, funny, and there to help. We are one of the many couples who had to change their wedding plans due to COVID and Alexandra was there for us during the most crazy of times. No matter the obstacle we were faced with, Alexandra was there to support us in any way she could. We highly recommend hiring Alexandra as your wedding planner, day or coordinator, etc.!
Is there a 6th star I can select?? Because I can't say enough great things about Alex and XO Moreau weddings! I immediately connected with Alex after our initial discussion and knew she was the only choice. Planning a wedding for me was not easy to begin with and then add COVID... needless to say, it could have been a nightmare. But it wasn’t because Alex is a rockstar and went above and beyond for our original wedding and wedding 2.0. I am so thankful to have worked with Alex and ended up having the most perfect stress free day!
Talk about a bad ass !! Alex and Jess are amazing and make your day the most magical experience. They truly care about you and it shows. Alex gives you advice and tells you like it is; a quality that more women could use. Jess gave me her snacks on my wedding day, amidst a rain storm and a panic attack she showed up with salted peanuts for me and I know that sounds so weird, but I mean who doesn’t love a girl with a calming presence and some salted peanuts !! Two wonderful women who created a wonderful day!!
I really have no idea where to begin in this review for Alex Moreau with XO Moreau. She was born to do this. From start to finish, navigating the wedding planning during a worldwide pandemic (which no one has experience with…) she was absolutely amazing. She somehow never seemed to get rattled and that went a LONG way when I was completely unsure how to move forward with our day. Through the ups and downs, and after some intense, game time decisions, we ended up with a stunning, magical event, representative of us as a couple and truly something so above and beyond what we envisioned. She’s super chill, but whip-smart and extremely productive… it's the best combination of "full confidence + go getter/make it all happen asap", mixed with "low anxiety, let's take this step by step and make great decisions" approach. Creatively, she’s an absolute original. She won’t put someone in a box and will take your vision to the next level. She went above and beyond for our custom design items and I couldn’t believe how awesome they turned out. Day of, her management was a freaking 11 out of 10. We have a crazy group of friends, including ourselves, and she handled everything flawlessly. If you are contemplating hiring Alex, all I have to say is get her while you can, because this gal has got to be in the highest demand. She is so very talented and we feel so lucky. THANK YOU ALEX 4EVERRRR. - Lauren + Austin
Alex with XO Moreau did an amazing job on our special day. We hired her as our Day of Coordinator and I'm SO glad I did! Everyone warns you that your wedding day is going to go by in a blink of an eye and that as a bride you will be stressing over the small stuff. Because of Alex I didn't have to worry about any of the "little things" and was able to enjoy every minute of the day. 10 out of 10 recommend hiring her!
Alex is absolutely amazing!!! I hired her as a full-time planner for my April 2020 wedding, which was postponed to January 2021. Throughout the entire process, Alex is/has been everything I could want in a wedding planner. She is organized, detail-oriented, stylish and empathetic. I'll be honest -- I have had a difficult time with wedding planning (even before having to postpone). I have a hard time making decisions and can be easily flustered. Alex has been an absolute angel with helping me through this. She takes the time to talk through my options, provide her recommendations and is completely understanding when I start to have a little freak out. She has a calming presence and knows how to help me prioritize certain aspects of what I want without sacrificing my "dream wedding." She really understood my personality and exactly what I envisioned right from the beginning, plus she brings her own awesome ideas and you can tell she really knows what she's doing. We had to postpone our wedding about 2 weeks before it was supposed to happen. Everything was done and ready to go, and I was crushed. However, I was confident that Alex would be there to help me and would handle everything, and I was right. Alex didn't miss a beat -- she quickly connected with all of my vendors (over 20!) and aligned them all for our new date. I genuinely don't think I could have handled those logistics on my own. I cannot recommend Alex highly enough. She is an expert in her field, but more than that, she really cares about her clients and does everything she can to make their dream weddings a reality. I can't wait for our new date in January -- I know it will go perfectly thanks to Alex! She has saved me so many hours of stress, acted as a sounding board, and has shown compassion toward me in the way a friend would. If you are on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, do not think twice and just hire Alex -- you will NOT regret it!
Alex is sooo good at what she does! She is so fun, detail-oriented & creative! I hate planning but she made working with her the best experience. Do yourself a favor & hire her!!!!!!!
Where to begin!? Investing in Alex was the best decision we ever made. She seriously knows her stuff. I learned so much just from asking her a million questions! She is so professional and so talented and so much FUN to work with! She respected our budget and worked hard to find amazing vendors that were perfect for our personality. She was able to zero-in on what made us unique and translate that into a wedding. It was amazing to watch her work!
When COVID-19 hit, our plans fell to pieces. She took the pieces and turned them into art. We had to cancel our Marfa wedding and decided to get married in Austin later in the year. Alex was there every step of the way and helped us close out contracts and plan a second wedding.
She was so professional. Even when the pandemic was at its worst, she was quick to respond and up-to-date on the latest regulations for weddings. Throughout the process, I trusted her completely with all of the logistics and she did NOT disappoint.
Ultimately, we decided to scrap the second wedding because COVID was still very much an issue. I was so afraid to tell Alex because we had worked so hard and for so long on my dream wedding. She completely understood and suggested we have a private elopement. Within two weeks, in the middle of a pandemic, Alex brought to life the most amazing elopement for my husband and me. it was unbelievable, I am still on cloud nine.
I don’t know how she does it. She is unbelievably talented, smart, and probably could be a therapist by now! Do yourself a favor and hire this gal while you can — she is going places.
I am honestly not sure how I would have gotten through wedding planning without Alex. Not only is she super knowledgeable and quick to reply to any questions, she is also super personable and friendly! A lot of stress came with planning a wedding during a pandemic, but Alex was encouraging along the way and helped us to continue to look forward to our day even when we felt discouraged. She was always available for advice and I felt like I could ask her anything and she would find a way to help with no hesitation! Our wedding day went smoother than I could have imagined and if there were any issues, I didn’t even find out about them until after the wedding because she’s THAT good!! If you’re on the search for a coordinator....you’ve found your girl!
Alex! First I would like to say thank you.. You are so kind, patient, talented and organized. From the beginning Alex was insanely helpful! Before I even became one of her brides she was quick to respond and help me through the process. She is so thorough and easy to talk to which made me feel very comfortable to be able to express my wishes and/or concerns when planning out the wedding. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing situation my fiancé and I have to cancel our wedding. Alex has not only been my coordinator but she is now a friend. She made this hard time so much easier with her generosity and kind heart.
Alex - thank you for being you!
A True Treasure, or as I liked to call her Tesorito. Thank you, Alex, for your smile. I wish I could package it up and send it to all, especially these days. We were lucky enough to get our wedding in early this year and for that we are grateful but we are more grateful that we had the opportunity to share that “epic”(Alex’s words) day with all those that we love and in that bunch we include Alex. She has a way of making you feel like you’ve known her your entire life, the ease with which she takes in information you give her and executes your ideas however crazy they seem so effortlessly is a true skill. We had a lot of moving parts in our wedding, a big location, with lots of people and some logistical roadblocks but she made it all happen. I most appreciate her having constant communication with me, there was never a time that I had to send her multiple emails following up on items. I was glad to have her as a partner in helping me navigate the unknown that is the wedding planning process. She kept me on track and held me accountable for my part and that is something I needed. She did everything with style and grace she was not there to sell me on anything or try and take over, she was there for what seemed like as a friend. A very prompt, responsible, and hard-working friend nonetheless a friend. Thank you, Alex. Thank you for allowing me to enjoy my time as a bride.
Alex is such a joy to work with! Even through her enthusiastic emails alone, I knew I would enjoy her before we met. We have worked together a few times now at The Union, the venue I manage, and she works so hard to make sure her clients have the best day ever! You will love working with Alex. She is organized, relatable, and immediately treats you as a friend.
In the beginning of my engagement process, I really debated whether I would need a wedding planner or not. After many moments of panic, I decided to pull the trigger, and I'm so glad I did. I'm from Dallas and am getting married in Austin, so I wanted to find someone well connected with a great knowledge of the area. I found Alex by searching on the Internet and sort of chose her on a whim-- she had great reviews and I loved the look of the weddings she had planned. They were modern and fun while still remaining classic, timeless, and beautiful. She also seemed like a fun girl that I could be friends with-- I wasn't wrong. I'm so happy with my decision! You can tell how much Alex enjoys what she does by the amount of care, consideration, and time she puts into her work. She has taken the time to really get to know my fiance and I through questionnaires, phone calls, emails, and in-person meetings, because she wants to make sure our wedding reflects us. She is very professional but also so fun and approachable. I know she has tons of weddings she's working on, but she really makes me feel like she's super excited for mine and that it's special. She's made this process so much easier on me by taking care of the "stressful stuff" - budget planning, contracts, logistics, etc. and allowing me to enjoy the fun parts of wedding planning! She's been able to set me up with awesome vendors at great prices due to her relationships and connections along with her knowledge of my preferences and priorities. In a world where there's an overwhelming sea of vendors, it's nice to be able to have a narrowed down list based on her expertise and being able to trust her to know what/who will fit into my vision. As far as design/vision coming together, Alex is truly talented. I have not exactly always made it easy on her. I'm both extremely nit picky as well as super indecisive/need a helping guiding hand. She's been able to navigate that to where she gives me awesome ideas, help, and inspiration, all while meeting my specific wants, needs, and requests. As far as design, I kind of threw her in a million directions as far as photo and inspiration. Despite the million directions I pointed her in, she was able to curate a design board that was nothing I would've ever been able to come up with myself but exactly what I wanted. On top of that, she's super attentive and quick to respond. She goes out of her way to make sure I'm on the ball with timeline and am feeling comfortable with the planning process, even in this crazy Corona mess time, when I know she is dealing with so much. I'm so excited for my big day and feel super confident that Alex is going to help me pull off exactly what I have always dreamed of!
Alex is truly the most laid back planner ever and we LOVE working with her! She makes every wedding day run so smoothly and flawlessly! The time and detail she dedicates to each of her clients to ensure their vision for their wedding day is carried out perfectly is so incredible to witness. If we could give her 10 stars we would!
Alex was wonderful from start to finish! Having a wedding coordinator is one of the best things you can do for your day and Alex was nothing short of amazing. Girlfriend knows her ish! She is like your best friend, but also gets down to business and keeps your day on track. From the start, I knew we would be in good hands because of her organization, attention to detail, and her great working relationships with tons of vendors! She was thorough and on top of emails with my vendors when I let things slip through the cracks! Choose Alex! #alex2020
Alex is an Incredible professional and kept this mom of the bride from losing her mind!
There are so many things about Alex that confirmed our decision to hire a wedding planner. We didn’t just hire ‘a’ planner, we hired the best. She’s not only a guru of information and advice, she is a financial watch dog...keeping that wedding budget in tact (father of the brides favorite). She is a supreme vendor finder and negotiator. She kept our timelines in order; always giving us reminders of what’s coming up, what needs to be done and when. On the wedding day it ran absolutely seamless, if there were issues, we never knew it. We had over 180 guests which what I imagine is like herding cats, Alex handled it as if it were the easiest thing on the planet. She does everything with a smile on her face and always in her heart. I’ve decided to adopt her! She is truly that wonderful and hiring her will go down as the best decision I have ever made.
What can I say that hasn't been said about Alex. Man, she's the Queen! She took care of EVERYTHING!! She always put me at ease when I thought that something wasn't going to work but she always reassured me that it would work out flawless in the end and guess what? It always did. She was right, she made my wedding day dreams come true. She made sure that the reception looked amazing with her amazing skills. One thing I loved about her, was that she made sure to reply so fast to my emails. She was lightening fast. The day I reached out to her I had already spoken to several wedding planners, she was the last one before giving up. She had an away message that said she was out to a family wedding and wouldn't be able to respond until she came back that Monday, I was so distraught because I was so eager to hear about her services. Guys, she replied in less than 5 minutes. I was shocked. I knew right then that she was going to be my girl. My husband was so excited to meet her, so she planned for us to meet. I loved her spunky personality, she instantly felt like she became like a best friend. I even wanted her to be my bridesmaid if one of my bridesmaids didn't work out. That's how personable she is. She is SO PASSIONATE about what she does. She was my favorite part of my wedding, she even learned Spanish to speak to my wedding guests. That shows you that she LOVES what she does. I'm so sad that my wedding is over. It felt like a breakup because I knew I wouldn't get those weekly emails anymore. I know that I will be able to contact you for booking trips with JuneTen Travel Co. She also helped us book an amazing honeymoon at Riviera Maya, Mexico. She recommended an amazing resort and boy did they treat us like royalty!!She knows her stuff and she wants the best treatment for all her clients. Thank you Alex, you were truly my biggest blessing during this amazing and hectic process. Adrian and I both love you and will always hold you dear to our hearts.
I came across Alex's business after she commented on my Instagram picture of my engagement. I had followed her back at some point prior, but this brought XO Moreau back to my attention! She was the first wedding coordinator "interview" my mom and I had, and after we talked with her, we knew we would love her! She immediately drew us in with her bubbly attitude. Alex was in the right price range for us and also offered us a personalized package for what we wanted help with. She was flexible with us - which we really appreciated. We ended up using Alex for day-of coordination and wedding design services.
Design Services: Alex is creative and gave us many fun elements to choose from. She helped us bring to life a cohesive, elegant, beautiful wedding look that I absolutely fell in love with. I thought the design boards that she made were GREAT ... and then when I saw it all in person, the end result was even better. When we hired her, she told us that she would help us throw a FUN party... and that she did! All design elements made our wedding have such a fun vibe and every single guest had such a fun time.
Day-Off Coordination: My husband writes: "I think the biggest thing for me was that we didn’t answer a single question during the entire wedding weekend, and that was huge for me. Alex took care of all questions and logistics which allowed us to live in the moment and take in as much of our wedding as possible!" I echo my husband, and add that Alex did all of the hard work while staying super calm! Anything we needed, her only response was "Yep, I got you!" That was so reassuring.
Overall: Alex is organized beyond compare, funny, so capable, so chill, stylish, has relationships with tons of great vendors, and more. Alex is a gem in this industry and you truly would be missing out if you didn't leverage her expertise and talent to help make your wedding the best day of your life!
Alex was a dream. What we love about Alex in easy to read format (ha!):
1. Most important: Has a can-do and positive attitude each and every time.
2. Super organized, responded with quick and detailed emails.
3. Has incredible contacts for other vendors.
4. Friendly, cute, sweet, groovy....all that stuff!
5. Incredibly capable.
6. Could NOT have done it without her.
7. I could go on an on, but I'll run out of room.
8. You will NOT regret hiring Alex.
5 stars does not give Alex justice. She was by far the BEST decision we made for our wedding!!! I do not know how I could have done any of it without her! She was my go-to girl for anything wedding planning, & though she was professional she’s also like your best gal pal!! Her communication is 20/10- she has the ability to calm you down through email & responded fast ALWAYS! She takes all of your stress away and will walk you through every step of your wedding planning. We had Alex for design & coordination, & she went above and beyond before us. I had no idea how helpful she would be- seriously worth every penny!!! I wish I booked the full package just to talk to her more! During wedding planning, Alex reviewed EVERYTHING & caught any gaps or things we overlooked. Even when we made last-minute changes- she was there & got it done with no problem. The day-of went so smoothly & that is ALL thanks to Alex. I got to enjoy every second of my wedding day because she was behind the scenes making sure everything went according to plan. If you’re looking for a planner- STOP LOOKING & book Alex before someone else does!
If you are reading this review because you are considering hiring Alex, save yourself time and just do it. It was singlehandedly the best decision we made in the wedding planning process! She was extremely organized, always quick to respond, had answers for everything and made our day go off without a hitch (at least to us, I’m sure she was taking care of it all). People would often ask how stressed we were with all of the planning and it was never the answer that anyone expected because Alex alleviated so much stress and anxiety for us just knowing she would make sure everything was perfect the day of. I don’t even know the extent of all of the work that she did for us but we are extremely grateful. We were recommended to her and have now recommended her to two other couples and will absolutely be recommending her to all of our other friends when they get engaged!
Alex was fantastic to work with for my wedding and I couldn't recommend her enough!
Throughout the entire process, her knowledge of vendors, wedding processes, resources, & recommendations where invaluable! Her recommendations were always thoughtful and within budget and she was never pushy, which allowed me to still come to my own decision.
Alex was also super responsive. She would respond to emails and texts so quickly and made me feel like I was the only bride she was working with. She kept us on track with payments and timelines. She even put up with my mom texting her regularly with questions all the way up until my wedding day!
Alex is also extremely organized. I don't know how she did it, but she kept track of all the one off emails/texts I sent her with key information and ensured it was implemented on the big day.
I'm so sad the wedding is over, but I'm so happy Alex was a part of it! Highly recommend her for all of your wedding needs :)
I am so so thankful that I chose Alex to help plan our wedding! She was such a pleasure to work with, SUPER organized, on top of ALL the details and always there to answer any questions! Her style and attention to detail was extraordinary! Our wedding at Villa Del Lago turned out to be such a dream! It all went so smoothly and perfectly and was the most beautiful wedding I have ever been to! ;) Couldn't have turned out better! If you want a laid back but extremely sweet, creative and organized planner, then Alex is your lady!
When people ask my husband and I what our favorite part of wedding planning was, we both look at each other with certainty and declare in unison, “Hiring Alex.”
To say that Alex went "above and beyond" is a tremendous understatement. Alex was our: strategic planner, authentic designer, non-judgmental financial advisor, comedienne and provider of hilarious memes, empathetic confidante & therapist, fierce and focused director, emergency bustle expert, personal waitress & bartender, and all things (pre and day of) wedding spirit guide go-to gal.
Alex has mastered a system for keeping her clients up to date in real time, eliminating the stress and anxiety of figuring out “what’s next.” She has a trusted network of vendor partners and friends with different price points and styles, and while she provides her own recommendations – she encourages her clients to bring their own favorites to the table to compare services. I could not be happier with the group of vendors that we ended up working with – from pre-wedding customer service to the actual services, each recommended vendor absolutely met and exceeded our expectations.
One of the most impressive parts of our experience with Alex is how she tailored the experience of planning to fit our personalities and lifestyle. As busy professionals, we didn’t have time for phone or video calls, to meet up, or even to meet with vendors. Alex understood this and led us through the process ENTIRELY through email. Yes, you read that right. Seriously. We didn’t even do a cake tasting – believe us when we say you can trust Alex and her recommendations 110%. Our first and only phone call with Alex was a few weeks before the big day, and our first bigggg hug was on our wedding day.
In the weeks leading up to the wedding, I had some apprehension about the funky color palette we originally chose (in my heart, I knew I loved it – but my head kept telling me different – to go more neutral/muted). Alex provided an immense amount of reassurance and reminded me to trust her – that it would be amazing. I built an updated vision board leading up to the big day to try to ease my mind and shared it with her + our florist - they validated the design and couldn’t stop talking about how excited they were. My anxiety shifted into excitement, and ultimately – on our wedding day – total awe.
When the day came and I finally got to see everything, I couldn’t believe my eyes – it was like everything we wanted and MORE. It was personal, uniquely “us” – and embodied the words + feelings Alex asked us to give her to describe our ideal day from the first moments we started working with her. It was perfect and we are STILL so obsessed with the design and the details.
Our family and friends had the very best things to say about our ceremony and reception – and we owe a significant portion of that praise to Alex. She took our hopes, dreams, and vision for our day and turned them into a reality. We will miss our regular “talk to you soon!” emails, and working with Alex to create the most beautiful day of our lives thus far – but we look forward to working with her in the future to help coordinate travel arrangements.
If you are having any anxiety about choosing a planner, your design, or anything wedding-related at all – trust me when I say that Alex is your girl. She’s got you. We would choose her over and over and over again. We <3 you, Alex!
I could not recommend Alex enough. She provided us with complete ease leading up to the wedding and the wedding day itself. SHE IS THE BEST!
I initially thought I would take on day-of coordination on for my recent wedding and was quick to realize I was way in over my head.
I did some planner/coordinator browsing and various wedding websites and stumbled on XO Moreau weddings. I had an initial conversation with Alex about what kind of help I was looking for. My initial concern was decor setup since I was creating a lot of stuff for my wedding. During our conversation, she brought up so many other things I hadn't even considered that I would need to account for such as tent rentals, timelines, vendor handling, rain plans, etc.
During the process she was quick to respond, and if any early fires came up she was ready to resolve them.
I could never have had a perfect wedding without her. She will be able to answer every question you have and cover all the things you never thought of. The entire day was flawless because of her help, and several of my guests commented by saying "it just felt like the whole night was effortless". That speaks volumes to her work.
