About Studio AH

Studio AH

Principal Planner

Let's just say this: At Studio AH, we love a good party, but we love planning one even more! Our business specializes in event planning and coordination services for the Carolinas. We hope we get a chance to work together and get your party started! xo Alyssa + the Studio AH team

You should know that we're geeks for the grind that goes into an event. Give us all of the crazy, unpredictable weather, late nights, sweating, last-minute changes, unruly guests, and even the tears! It's in those chaotic moments where we truly thrive, and not everyone can claim they love that part of the job. We're 100% down to roll up our sleeves, kick off the heels, and put in the work as a teammate to make sure your event is perfect. There is nothing sweeter in life than getting to be by our client's side throughout the best day of their life, and that is exactly what keeps us coming back for more.

	Full-service planning	Partial planning	Day-of coordination / wedding management
Description	We’ll take the lead on essentially everything, from setting your budget to sussing out design plans, handpicking your venue and vendors, managing your guest list, reviewing and negotiating contracts, and creating manageable timelines to keep you on track with all of your to-dos. We'll be there every step along the way and continue to be all-hands-on-deck when it comes to the actual day itself.	If you like the idea of being more hands-on with your wedding planning, but still want some help, partial planning and coordination may be the route for you! We'll stick with you throughout the planning process as a trusted advisor and then pull it all together in the final stretch and execute on the big day.	Month of coordination services aren’t there to help you choose or secure vendors, or design the look and feel of the day. However, we do help pull all the details together and make sure things run smoothly on the day of the wedding. This includes timeline creation, at least one venue walk-through about 30 days from your wedding and vendor communication leading up to the big day!

I was a bridesmaid in one of the weddings Alyssa planned, with Alyssa also being a bridesmaid in that wedding! She made everything seem so easy and stress free! We knew exactly where to go, what to do, and when to go! She was able to make sure everything went according to plan, if there was anything that went “wrong,” no one knew. All of the other vendors respected her and worked very well with her, especially the photographer and day of coordinator!

Alyssa was BORN to be a wedding planner/coordinator. She is genuinely the most perfect person to have by your side during the whole process. She is calm when you get overwhelmed, she is diligent when your mind is everywhere and most importantly, she is kind and empathetic at all times, because she knows how important this event is. Three words to describe the professional results we saw from her work were organized, proactive and successful. I can't say enough great things in one review, but if you take the chance to hire this company, you will not be disappointed and more so, you'll be RELIEVED. Thank you again Alyssa for everything you did and for doing it so kindly!
Studio AH was incredible!!!

Our wedding was so perfect and exactly what we were hoping for - we could not have done any of it without Studio AH! From the beginning, Alyssa gave us incredible vendor recommendations and even went with us in person to meet with vendors on multiple occasions. Alyssa was in constant communication with us for months leading up to the big day and consistently checked in with us. The day of the wedding was 1000% STRESS FREE because Alyssa was there to ensure everything ran smooth as ever. We seriously could not have done any of it without Alyssa and absolutely recommend anyone hire Studio AH! Literally could not say enough good things! Would hire her again in a heartbeat! Thanks again Studio AH!
The best coordinator!

I cannot say enough good things about Alyssa! She truly does it all - she had contact solution ready when I got makeup in my contact, helped a groomsmen get a wine stain out of his tux, captured moments on our disposable cameras, and probably a million other little things that we didn’t even see! She was somehow attentive to our every need while also coordinating with all of our vendors to make sure the day went perfectly. Alyssa is professional and prepared while also being positive and fun, which is probably why our entire bridal party and families were so complimentary of her. Do yourself a favor and hire her!!

We’ve been in the wedding industry for a long time. When I started in this business in 2012, we were still using walkie-talkies throughout the events because Apple watches hadn’t hit the market yet! We’ve come a long way since then and learned A LOT about what makes a wedding beautiful, go smoothly and exceed the expectations of our clients. Our style is: calm and honest. This is true for the planning process (we will tell you if an idea you have won’t work out) and on the wedding day (when your wedding planner is calm, it’s a lot easier for you to enjoy the day).

The venue event coordinator and wedding planner are both crucial to your wedding day going smoothly and play different roles. The venue event coordinator’s job is to focus on the aspects of the venue that affect your wedding such as maintaining the grounds, food and beverage service, and responsibilities directly related to the venue. Your wedding planner’s job is to coordinate your vendors, run your ceremony rehearsal, design your wedding, and is your go-to for all wedding-specific questions.

HELL yes, we do! We adore all our couples. We value equality and professionalism.

Our packages range from $2,200- $4,400 and our most popular package averages $3,300. All our packages are custom-created for your wedding, and the starting price of each is listed on our Services page. After a brief discovery call to learn about your style, vision, and ideas for your wedding, we can recommend the right package for you. Our prices are based on many factors (location, number of guests, design, the complexity of the event, etc.).

Your wedding planner is the vendor you will work the closest with and the most during your wedding planning. They are also the representative of your vision to the other vendors on your wedding day. Experience and vendor relationships really count when it comes to your wedding planner. We recommend you pick someone that you are excited about, feel like you click with after you talk to them, and they get you. When we work with couples we want it to feel like a friend is planning their wedding with them. We take on a limited number of weddings each year, to ensure that each couple gets plenty of attention and quick replies to emails.

We can work miracles and bring wedding visions to life. However, our superpowers do have limits! Under no circumstances can we serve or handle food, cut cake, serve alcohol, or provide transportation. We're also not responsible for bussing guest tables or managing trash throughout the venue. Most of those tasks are the role of other wonderful vendors, like caterers and bartending services, that will help create a streamlined wedding experience for you.

We take on a limited number of weddings each year, to ensure that each couple gets plenty of TLC from us. That means our couples work directly with our lead planner, Alyssa, throughout the planning process. In some cases, we'll bring an event assistant to help out on your big day, and if the size and scope of your event need extra support, we'll discuss that in our discovery meeting.

Our tired little feet would never allow it! We only ever take on one wedding per weekend, and almost never more than one per month.

We do! We offer a-la-carte services that couples may add to their wedding package, wherever they might need extra planning and coordination support.

Yes! Let’s face it: A big wedding just isn’t for everyone. A micro wedding is an intimate affair, typically with no more than 30 guests. They still feature time-honored traditions that make a wedding but on a much smaller scale. Let us take care of everything from planning to execution to curate your elopement to perfection.
