About Allyssa Elaine Events

Allyssa Elaine Stevenson

Owner + Lead Planner

I launched Allyssa Elaine Events in 2016 and have been spending the last few years in awe of what I get to call my job. I have planned, coordinated, and designed over 250 weddings since our beginning and we are already booking fast for next year! Here at AEE, we are dedicated to giving quality service, building relationships with clients, and providing the best experience at every event. We are always up for any task you hand us and go above and beyond, no questions asked. We love the people that trust us with these important moments in life!

What I’m really known for is staying calm and organized even in the most hectic moments. A lot of my clients say I bring a peaceful presence to what can be a very overwhelming season. I take care of the logistics, the communication with vendors, the timeline—everything—so that my couples can just enjoy the process and be present with their people on the day of. Honestly, what I’m most proud of is the way I serve people. I want my couples to feel genuinely cared for—not just like another client.

In three words: Calm, Collaborative, Supportive

  • *THERE WOULD BE NO WEDDING WITHOUT ALLYSSA*

    •Verified review
    •Hunter Cochran W.•Sep 5

    TLDR: My friends and parents told me "brides don't get to remember their wedding because it's too stressful". I remember EVERYTHING thanks to Allyssa and so do my family and friends. It was an amazing flawless experience strictly due to her. We purchased the full package wedding planning as my husband and I are both physicians, and boy was it worth the . She helped us from start (finding a venue) to finish (literally packs things into your car during the wedding). Planning a wedding seems so daunting and she made it seamless. She recommends reliable vendors, contacts them, sets up appointments for you, and even goes to the appointments with you. She helped me make many of the decisions (there are just too many lets be honest). I said this to her during most of our meetings, there would be no wedding without Allyssa. The wedding day itself went off without a hitch. She has a meticulously planned itinerary that is realistic and so helpful. As a bride, you don't have to think or worry about anything because she does all that for you. It's like being a guest at your own wedding--stress free and good times only. She has a tackle box filled with oopsie-fixers for anything that may go wrong... my husband spilled taco on his shirt and she got it right off. She thinks of everything, is somehow everywhere at all times, and has everything under control. She is calm, cool and collected under pressure; which is a MUST HAVE on your wedding day. On top of being all this , she is a great person. She is so nice, funny, and friendly! I loved hanging out with her during the process. My husband couldn't make it to many of the planning appointments, so Allyssa went with me!! It's like having a best friend come along who also has great taste and knows everyone. If you're on the fence about getting a wedding planner, the answer is simple--HIRE ALLYSSA. If you want to remember every detail of your wedding--HIRE ALLYSSA. And, in my case, if you want there to be any wedding at all--HIRE ALLYSSA. I just love her!

    Allyssa and her wedding services I would recommend to everyone! She is meticulous in her coordination while being a wonderful and positive person to work with. My parents were wowed by her as I hired her to help since my family lives out of town so we all could enjoy the day and not sweat the details. Really so I could be in the moment. All my vendors I booked love her which says a lot too! While I just used her for day-of, I know her skills far exceed day of. She even got one of my favorites behind the scenes moments captured on her phone.

    One of the best decisions we made was to hire Allyssa from the get-go for planning / coordination! From our first call we knew we were in great hands as she helped fill in the gaps to our vision and recommended trusted vendors. Whenever we mentioned Allyssa was our planner to other vendors, they always breathed a sign of relief and said "Allyssa is the best!" This was always the best sign as she is well respected by members in the industry. She kept us on track, on budget and was always there to answer questions no matter how big or small. On our wedding day, we truly had no stress on the logistics / details knowing that Allyssa was there and had already spoken with all of our vendors to iron out any kinks. I'm sure there were things that came up but we never heard about any issues and fully got to enjoy every second of our day. I truly could not recommend her and her team more. There was nothing I would change about our day and Allyssa was a HUGE part of making that so! She is the best!!!

    Allyssa is the best. She really has it all together. We used her as our day of coordinator and when we had our meeting with her 30 days out from our wedding I swear all the stress flew off our shoulders. She handled all the correspondance with our vendors and kept a running to do list for us so we knew what had to be done, which helped us stay on top of everything. She showed up to our final walk through and helped answer all the questions, she had detailed documents and folders on Google that we collaborated on, she was timely and communicative and overall wonderful. Any time I had a little panic moment, I would text Allyssa and she would respond immediately, helping relieve any anxiety I had. She helped organize everything at the rehearsal, and day of, she was fantastic. Our parents and bridal party were even blown away by her ability to keep everyone in line and stick to the schedule perfectly. She thought of every detail and made sure our day went as smoothly as possible. I didn’t have to worry about ANYTHING day of, she told me what to do, where to be, and what was happening. She went above and beyond and helped put flowers in my hair before the photos. By the time the evening was over, she had our cars packed and moved to the proper spots, all of our stuff organized for us, and my purse, phone and keys were in my hand. I was in awe!!! We didn’t have to worry about where any of our stuff was and there was literally NOTHING missing. She even mailed our marriage license back to the office after the wedding. She truly did. not. miss. Allyssa is kind, organized, punctual and truly incredible. Our wedding day went perfectly and I don’t think it would have been as great without Allyssa. Booking her was the best decision we made during the wedding planning process. We would recommend her to anyone!!!
