Testimonials

I could not recommend Shelley more. Planning my wedding from across the county, working full time, and running a business was just not going to be possible for me. I gave her my vision for our day and a couple of vendors who I liked their work, and she took the reins from there, getting me quotes, doing all the behind-the-scenes chatting, and communicating with me effectively and efficiently. Not only did she do an amazing day at pulling together our dream day, but the execution day off was nothing but perfection. She made sure every little detail was spot on, we had the perfect timeline and stayed on time! She is beyond amazing, the nicest and so understanding, you will not regret working with Shelley! Like I said, I could not recommend more!

I have no words to express my gratitude to Shelley. She is the sole reason my wedding day felt and looked like a fairytale. The minute we hired Shelley I knew we were working with a professional who has years of experience behind her. In addition, I instantly noticed her passion for her craft and her ability to build relationships. She has a calming presence that displays a subtle confidence that is carried throughout the planning process, this calming nature helped me as a bride feel assured and affirmed that my day was going to be executed perfectly. As someone who is an anxious bride, Shelley was my rock and confidant when I needed her. Shelley is detail oriented, she is prompt and timely, she is efficient, she gets to know her couples and families, and I promise she will give you 110%. Shelley builds long term relationships with her couples and vendors. She maintains those relationships. Her interpersonal skills and her ability to connect with people is evident. Everyone who attended our wedding explained how every detail was accounted for. The timelines she set up was perfect; every transition was easy and allowed us to be in the moment and present. Shelley is a wedding planner/coordinator, but she feels like family. She goes above and beyond for her clients. There was not one time that I didn’t feel like a priority to her. Any questions or concern I had she addressed and offered her insight. If there is one component of our wedding that I could not have done without, it would be Shelley Albanese.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Shelley. She was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Thanks to her organization, professionalism, and calm presence, I was never stressed or worried throughout the entire planning process. Every detail was handled beautifully, and the day itself was flawless. She truly went above and beyond to make my daughter’s wedding everything we dreamed of. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a seamless, joyful wedding experience.

-Laura (Mother of the Bride)

I don’t think there are bigger fans of Shelley than my husband and I. We genuinely wouldn’t have survived the last year and a half with her guidance and support. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and experienced, but she also possesses a sincerity that is hard to find in transactional relationships. We highly recommend working with Shelley on your big day because she truly is the best in the field!

Shelley was an absolute dream to work with and made our wedding planning experience truly wonderful! From the very beginning, her friendly demeanor, organization, and extensive knowledge made what could have been a stressful process incredibly smooth and stress-free. She provided us with valuable insights into many of the vendors we ended up choosing, ensuring we had the best team for our special day. Shelley was so thoughtful and patient throughout the entire planning journey. However, it was on the day of our wedding that she truly shined. Shelley was in her element when pulling together and executing the wedding day game plan, ensuring everything ran on time and smoothly - all with a smile on her face! She handled all day of coordination with family and vendors, so that we could relax and fully enjoy our day without any hassle. Now that our wedding is over, we're not only sad that the day has passed but also because we won't get to work with Shelley anymore. We couldn't recommend her enough for anyone planning their wedding! Thank you, Shelley, for making our day perfect!!

Shelley is the absolute BEST! At the time of my engagement my fiancé was having health issues and I was 3 months postpartum. I could not fathom the thought of trying to plan a wedding, or even where to start! I called around and spoke with a handful of planners, but when I got on the phone with Shelley I knew she was the one for the job! She made the process of planning my wedding stress free! From coordinating with vendors, finding ways to cut costs, bringing my visions to life, answering my hundreds of texts with questions she probably had already answered at some point previously, running around making sure everything was set up perfectly on my wedding day, and lastly going to bat for me with the venue when they were going to short me on my deposit! I enjoyed working with her so much, and so did all of the vendors I used… they all had great things to say about her from the times they had previously worked with her! If you are looking for a wedding planner that is fun, friendly, and will make things happen… Shelley is your girl!

-Jackie and Braden

Working with Shelley as our wedding planner was one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire planning process. From the very beginning, her communication was exceptional - clear, timely, and always reassuring. As someone who tends to get overwhelmed by details, I was constantly impressed by how calm, organized, and thoughtful she was at every stage.
On the wedding day itself, I truly can’t express how grateful I was to have her there. While I was feeling the weight of the day’s emotions and logistics, Shelley ensured everything ran seamlessly behind the scenes. She managed every vendor interaction with professionalism and grace, and I was able to be fully present in the moment knowing she had everything under control.
Watching the day come together so beautifully was such a gift, and it would not have been possible without her expertise and dedication. Shelley will always be my top recommendation for any couple looking for a planner who is not only incredibly capable, but also kind, attentive, and deeply committed to her clients.
