Hey there! My name is Alanah. I've been planning and working in events since 2017. I've planned weddings, large conferences, corporate events, family gatherings, birthday parties and more. I've worked as a wedding planner at large hotels and resorts to small local wineries. To me, every wedding is unique and I'm here to make sure your vision comes to life. I look forward to the possibility of creating your dream wedding together!

Awarded Best of Zola
Alannah helped coordinate our dream mountain wedding last summer (07/2023) at Devil's Thumb Ranch in Colorado. We ended up having a full weekend of events outside of just the wedding ceremony/reception and Alannah's attention to detail, professionalism, and follow through made each of those events possible. As a self-proclaimed "Type A Bride", I had lots of ideas and opinions on how I wanted everything planned and Alannah made sure everything turned out exactly as I had hoped! I was able to enjoy the weekend with my family, friends, and husband because I knew Alannah and her team was on top of everything. Would absolutely recommend working with Alannah in the future!

Hi! I'm Brooklyn - the owner! I'm 22 years old & happily married to my best friend, Michael. Traveling is a huge part of our lives, WDW is our happy place, & our next adventure is never far away. When I'm not at a wedding, you can find me in the flower shop or doing some *light* retail therapy. I recently graduated from KSU with a B.S. in Hospitality & Event Management. I have had the opportunity to work with some amazing couples & vendors in several states. I even spent time in FL working closely with one of the world's leading entertainment companies bringing hundreds of fairytale weddings & events to life. Now, I'm making magic of my own!

Awarded Best of Zola
When you think of your wedding, all you can hope for is nothing will go wrong, and if it does, it will be small. When you hire Brooklyn from Brooklyn Rain brides, you can rest assured that your day will be utter perfection. throughout the wedding planning process, Brooklyn was always there for me to reach out to and ask questions and give her professional suggestions. She is beyond wise for her years and knows everything a bride could ask in hand already. Even with me being in the industry Brooklyn would ask me questions leading up to the big day I didn't even know I had, she made sure I knew when and how to get my marriage license and took care of sending it back to the clerk for us. She handled getting the rings to the correct bridal party members and made sure to grab our vow books before the ceremony so we didn't have to remember them. My guests came to me after the ceremony and said it was the best ceremony they had ever seen and I couldnt agree more it had so much emotion, romance and pure magic sprinkled in and brooklyn was incredibly calm collected and well spoken capturing my husband and Is love story perfectly. I cannot recommend her services enough, not only can she officiate the most romantic ceremony ever She is also an incredible wedding coordinator and will make sure your wedding runs smoothly allowing you to have a stress free wedding day! I literally didn't have to handle a single thing on my wedding day because she was there to handle it all. She made all the difference plus she continued to come and check in in me to see how I was doing throughout the getting ready process and has the calmest nature helping me to feel ready before I walked down the aisle. not only did she handle coordination and officiating the wedding she sprinkled in some extra magic by taking some gorgeous photos throughout the day and sent them to me the morning after the wedding so I would have a little something until my professional photos arrived! I am so utterly grateful to Brooklyn for making the best day of my life utterly perfect. She may be based in Ohio, however, my wedding was in Michigan-she has traveled all over the United States to work weddings and is so worth it, so feel free to inquire about out of state travel. Anyone who is engaged, I can't say it enough, you need a Brooklyn to help guide you in your wedding planning!

Sabrina and Chelsea were a pleasure to work with since our very first call! After our intro call where we described our dream wedding, they gave us a list of recommended venues that was an immense help in our venue search. This was before we signed with them which I thought was very kind for them to do! They were very positive, friendly and patient with our many questions. We ended up doing the wedding management and tabletop design package. We worked closely with Sabrina throughout the planning and she is amazing! Always calm and reassuring that we were on track with planning. The team is super organized and also gave us planning tools like a checklist and budget tracker. Communication was always easy and I asked for monthly calls which helped a lot. The design process was fun and Sabrina was able to create our design plan based on our Pinterest board, as well as recommend vendors that fit our aesthetic. She even helped make our table signage! The day of went perfectly as planned and was absolutely beautiful! We were able to just show up without a worry! Our bridal party was also able to just enjoy the day since Lucky Day was handling everything. Sabrina and her assistant checked in with us throughout the wedding day and helped with my dress, shoes, and even had to go on the beach with us for photos. They set up all our extra decor and neatly packed everything at the end of the night so we didn’t forget anything. We had last minute changes to our schedule the week of and Sabrina was able to manage all our requests. We had our dream wedding come true and would highly recommend Lucky Day!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express how grateful I am to have found Memories Made with Brittney LaShea! Brittney was instrumental in making the wedding of my dreams come true! Listen—I am a project manager by profession—super organized, type A control freak, very particular—so for me to hand over the most important day of my life to someone else seemed unimaginable. But from my first meeting with Brittney, I felt nothing but utter confidence in her abilities and she definitely proved me right! I hired Brittney for day-of coordination about 2-3 months out from my wedding which took place March 2025. Brittney is an EXPERT event planner who was able to give me so much guidance even though I was so far into wedding planning. She is also EXTREMELY thorough—“day-of” coordination doesn’t just mean you show up on the day of the wedding and Brittney understands that. She put in the necessary prep work, reviewing vendor contracts, creating a detailed day of timeline, coordinating with vendors, and leading the rehearsal. Working with Brittney in the weeks leading up to the wedding and in particular at the rehearsal, I was able to observe the intentionality with which she builds relationships with people. On the wedding day, Brittney was a literal SUPERHERO. She comes equipped with walkie talkies and the most thorough emergency kit I’ve ever seen! There were things that went wrong throughout the day (that’s inevitable) but Brittney shielded me from so much of that by making executive decisions and coming up with solutions on the fly, which allowed me to just enjoy my day. Cold sparks tripped the power in the reception hall—Brittney handled it. Wind kept blowing over the arch as they were trying to decorate—Brittney handled it. By the end of the night, I didn’t want to deal with the train on my reception dress—Brittney handled it (the woman literally stitched a bustle for me lol). I could go on and on forever about how amazing this woman is. My family, the vendors, and even random guests commented on what an incredible job she did. So I’m just going to say anyone would be LUCKY to have Brittney on their team.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even start? Liz was an incredible wedding planner from day one. My wedding was in September, and we booked Liz in August of the previous year—it was one of the best wedding planning decisions I made. It’s hard to believe she was juggling other weddings with how communicative and responsive she was. Liz spent so much time meeting with me and working on things outside of our scheduled meetings, it felt like I was her only client! Liz was always just a phone call, text, or email away for anything wedding-related. If I needed a vendor recommendation, she’d have five lined up that perfectly fit my budget and vision by the next day—and sometimes she even reached out to them for me! She was my sounding board for everything: organization, design, dealing with wedding drama, and so much more beyond what we discussed during our monthly meetings. Liz planned each monthly meeting with a specific focus, whether it was ceremony layout, décor and floral, the seating chart, alcohol planning, or other details. Each meeting was another chance to ask questions and get help with anything I was working on. In addition to planning, Liz handled all of the décor for my wedding. I rented the décor from her, and she did all the setup and tear down, making the day completely stress-free. The space looked absolutely beautiful, and I didn’t have to lift a finger! The month leading up to the wedding, we had weekly meetings to review everything we had done and finalize the little details. When it came to the wedding weekend, Liz and her assistant Sammi were amazing, supportive, and incredibly helpful. They allowed me to relax and enjoy the rehearsal and wedding, knowing everything was under control. This is only a small fraction of how essential Liz was in planning my wedding. She is truly a one-of-a-kind person and wedding planner, and it’s so inspiring to see someone who excels at their job. I couldn’t recommend her enough!!
