“I cannot express how organized, efficient, and kind Alyssa and her team were throughout the entire process. As a wedding photographer, working alongside a planner who balances leadership and trust so effortlessly allows for every vendor to truly execute their best work, and I can truly say this particular wedding was my favorite experience of the entire year. Not only did Alyssa and her team give our couple an intentional and custom experience, but the event itself was so exquisitely designed, it looked as though it came right off the pages of a Vogue shoot.
If you are currently engaged and are deciphering whether or not to hire Pacific Engagements as your wedding planner, let this be the review to push you over the edge and secure her services. She is exceptional, intentional, and has a wonderful eye for design.”

“I felt very unprepared to dive into the world of wedding planning after our engagement. Alyssa helped me feel more comfortable with wedding culture. She exuded confidence and professionalism, recommended amazing vendors, kept communication stream-lined, kept us on track with decision-making, and never pressured us if we needed more time to think through little details or logistics.
We planned an August wedding because we figured it wouldn't rain that deep into summer. Of course, when the day came, it rained... Alyssa and her team didn't even bat an eye. Upon our request, they set up our ceremony in the rain for us anyway, and moved the cocktail hour and reception indoors without bothering me with a single detail.
Nothing will ever go 100% according to plan, but with Pacific Engagements, none of our guests ever knew that our special day was anything other than exactly as we planned it to be!”

“Thank you so much for everything you did to make our wedding happen. We are really happy with how it went and especially glad we could truly just be present and trust that you had it all covered, which you did!”

“Alyssa put her love, thoughtfulness and care into ensuring our wedding day turned out as imagined. She has great communication and listening skills, of which worked to help execute our vision. Moreover, Alyssa gave us the autonomy to make our own decisions and stepped in as needed. From bringing our vision to life, to day of wedding coordination, Alyssa is a highly talented wedding planner who puts the needs of her clients forefront and is a dream to work with. Truly very blessed to have had the opportunity to work with her!”

“We did things that weren’t as conventional: our processional (and last minute add ins to the wedding party), no formal picture time and a champagne toast during cocktail hour. Alyssa was open to every idea and figured out how to include it in a way that it would flow and ensured that it would be our best day; but also be an expression of who we were together, it was important to us to enjoy our day and be comfortable! She made what was in my head come to life. We didn’t have to worry about a thing and were able to enjoy our visiting family and friends the few weeks leading up to the wedding.”
ALIA + MATT
“Working with Alyssa for our wedding was such a great experience. Having Alyssa there on the day was the greatest peace of mind I could have ever asked for. Everything was incredibly organized and she was really a sense of calm for us throughout the whole day. Every single vendor that we worked with mentioned how amazing she was and how she was one of the best wedding planners they have ever worked with. She was so patient with me through the whole process and we couldn’t have asked for a better planner.”
ALLISON + CHACE
“Working with Alyssa at Pacific Engagements was absolutely amazing. As we started thinking about our big day, the thoughts of all the details we'd have to finalize started to weigh heavily on us. She not only helped us navigate all of the big and little details, but helped make sure the parties to the wedding (our parents) didn't have to be overwhelmed with decision-making or any work/preparations they didn't want to do.
Her confidence, grace, attention to detail, experience, and leadership serves her very well and I don't know how we would have done it without her!”

"All throughout the wedding, I heard from guests how much they loved Alyssa. She is sweet and personable, but also straight forward, keeps things moving and makes sure people know what to do - all with a smile and a sweet way about her. She helped us out immensely in the planning process - WE knew how incredible she was, but the fact that our guests and our families loved her and felt taken care of, made the day even better."
ALEX + EMILY
"Working with Alyssa was a wonderful experience, especially with us being out of the country during the entire wedding planning process! Alyssa helped us a lot with many of the design aspects of the event and worked with the location, florist, and other vendors to ensure that the day had the look and feel we wanted. She worked with us diligently to understand our vision for each step of the process. On the day, she was there whenever we needed her and orchestrated events to ensure they went off without a hitch! We received so many compliments from our guests and we both are so pleased with how everything worked out. We can unreservedly recommend Alyssa for all your wedding planning needs!"

“Alyssa was incredible in the months leading up to our wedding, and the entire weekend of. She took every curve ball we threw at her in stride, and was such a joy to work with. Flexible, kind, utterly professional, enthusiastic, and super fun!
My husband and I didn't have a single care in the world on the day of our wedding thanks to Alyssa and Erika's professionalism and creativity. Our wedding weekend absolutely would NOT have gone off so well without Alyssa's help, and we cannot thank her enough for everything.”
JENNY + JAKE
“Alyssa was very professional and helpful during the wedding planning process. She had great ideas and was very responsive to any question I threw at her. She made the wedding day seamless and took care of everything.
I knew I could trust her to get everything set up and displayed in the way I wanted while also making game time decisions that reflected our style. We are so appreciative of Alyssa for her time and attention!”
