About Occasions by Ally
Occasions by Ally
I have loved planning events of all kinds for as long as I can remember but weddings hold a special place in my heart. There is just something so beautiful and unique about each couple and each wedding. I am beyond honored that my clients choose to trust me with the most special day of their lives.
Everyone has their own story and style and I love getting to make it come to life. I am passionate about each of my clients and take as much time as I need to to execute their day perfectly. I do not have any limits on communication with my brides as I want to be able to answer any questions they may have during every step of the process.
In three words: Calm, Organized, Supportive

Amazing Day of Coordinator
Ally did such an amazing job on our wedding day!! She was our day of coordinator, but she did so much more leading up to the big day. There are so many pieces and parts to planning a wedding and during the planning process Ally made sure that we had everything from the wedding dress to petals for the flower girl to throw. She is so thorough and has excellent attention to detail. Our wedding day would not have ran even remotely close to how it was without Ally and her team. She laid out a clear timeline and made sure that everything was in its place. If there were any hiccups in the day, I never found out because she handled any issues that might have come up. My wedding day vision truly came to life and that is all thanks to Ally and her team. I couldn't recommend her more to any bride looking for a wedding planner or day of coordinator!

Working with Ally at Occasions by Ally made planning our wedding feel effortless from start to finish. She had a gift for knowing exactly what we needed before we even asked, and then she took care of every detail so we didn't have to worry. Her communication was relaxed and straightforward, which put us at ease during the entire process. On our wedding day, everything ran smoothly because Ally had thought through every moment and handled it all behind the scenes. We felt supported the whole way through, and honestly, we can't imagine planning a wedding without her. If you want to actually enjoy your engagement/wedding day instead of stressing about logistics, Ally is your person.

Wedding Planner - 5 STAR!
Ally was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. From the moment I had my first meeting with her she made me feel calm, confident, and completely ready for everything ahead. As a bride, there are so many moving parts and emotions, but because of Ally, I was able to be fully present and soak in every moment.. Her organization skills are beyond impressive. Every detail was thought through, every vendor knew exactly what to do, and the entire timeline flowed seamlessly from beginning to end. It was so clear that she has incredible relationships with vendors and that they trust and respect her which made everything run effortlessly. But what meant the most to me was how much she truly cared. Ally didn’t just show up to do a job she showed up for us! She was there for every little thing, even helping pin up my dress and lace it up when I needed it most (a true lifesaver!). In moments when things needed direction, she stepped in with the perfect balance of kindness and assertiveness. Because of Ally, I truly felt like a bride. She carried so much of the stress so I didn’t have to, and that is a gift I will never forget. I felt supported, taken care of, and genuinely celebrated the entire day. If you are a bride-to-be, hiring Ally will be one of the best decisions you make. She is organized, compassionate, proactive, and completely dedicated to making your day everything you dreamed it would be and more. I am forever grateful she was by my side on such an important day!

Book Ally!
There’s no need to search any further for a wedding coordinator: book Ally!! We booked Ally’s coordination package and got way more than our money’s worth. While we were just expecting to have her help on our actual wedding day, Ally was there for us from the day we booked her ready to answer any of our questions or address any of our concerns. To say that she knows what she’s doing is an understatement. She is professional, organized, and easy to work with. She made our actual wedding day run perfectly and we cannot recommended or thank her enough! Ally is THE best!
