Recommended for Overwhelmed Brides
We hired Alma later into our wedding planning process when I (the bride) was feeling severely overwhelmed. It was significantly affecting my mental and physical health. When we had our intro meeting, we went over with her the balls we already had rolling. My husband told Alma I was “off the planning committee” so he worked directly with Alma to pull off our amazing wedding. From the sidelines, I watched my husband have various meetings with her, communication with her and all of our major vendors, and Alma helped my husband identify and navigate all the small details. She went above and beyond on the wedding day by having items like easels and vases for us to borrow for the wedding day. She even pinned my dad’s boutonniere. We skipped a photographer for our reception and Alma took photos on our behalf and got some really really nice ones. She also surprised us with Polaroids of ourselves which I now keep in my wallet. My wedding day was excellent and one of the few things I would have changed is that I would have hired Alma SOONER. What we paid for her services ended up coming back to us by giving to us and more by giving us time and our mental wellbeing back. I commend Alma for her ability to step into what was already started, take the reins, and guide my husband through the rest of the wedding planning process.

Loved working with her!
Working with Alma at Bliss Events & Weddings was genuinely refreshing—she has this rare ability to be personable and professional without ever feeling stiff or distant. What struck me most was her presence throughout the entire day; she seemed to anticipate needs before they became problems, keeping all of us vendors organized and running on schedule while simultaneously managing the couple's families with calm reassurance. Even at the end of a long evening when exhaustion had set in for everyone else, Alma maintained this infectious energy that somehow kept the whole day feeling smooth and joyful rather than frantic. She navigated the emotional landscape of a wedding with impressive sensitivity, reading the room and adjusting her approach while never compromising her professionalism. If you're looking for a planner who genuinely cares about every person involved—not just the couple—and has the stamina and warmth to back it up, Alma is exactly who you want in your corner.

Vendor (DJ)
Alma at Bliss Events & Weddings has been a genuine pleasure to work with throughout our collaboration. Her communication style is punctual and responsive, which made coordinating details seamless and stress-free. What really impressed me was how resourceful and creative she approached problem-solving—she consistently found efficient solutions that kept everything on track. Alma's ability to stay organized while maintaining that personal touch is exactly what couples need when planning their wedding. I'd absolutely recommend Bliss Events & Weddings to any vendor or couple looking for a planner who actually listens and delivers results.

Wonderful to Work with Alma!
We had the opportunity to work with Alma for a wedding in Hinsdale and it went perfectly and very smoothly, thanks to her clear timelines, communication, and cueing. We are grateful to wonderful coordinators who make our jobs as a vendor easier!

Amazing & Professional
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Alma at Bliss Events & Wedding at 2 different weddings and each time her and her team were exceptional to work with and always had the couples’ best interest in mind. When looking for a coordinator/planner for your wedding, you should book with someone who you feel 100% comfortable with and confident that they’ll have your back and throughout the entire process. At each one of these separate weddings we collaborated at I noticed that the couples were extremely satisfied with the care and attention that they received from Alma & her team. 10/10 Highly Recommended!
