  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Oakland, IA

From my first mockup wedding timeline to hands on floral arrangements, I knew I belonged in the Events Industry. Every part of the process is special to me. From hearing your story, to showcasing the uniqueness of your relationship through personalized details. Fave moment is you relaxed, letting loose, and happily celebrating as you deserve to. Visualize being able to soak it all in, and then reach out when you’re ready to make it happen. I will always say yes to a meeting that involves iced coffee. My free time: cat snuggles, family dinners, friend outings, quiet nights in with my fiancé.

I have worked with Alison and her team many times. Her setups are always elegant and classy. She is easy to work with and accommodating to other vendors any way she can to make the clients day amazing.

I had SSE & their Pine Wedding Management package but I wish I would’ve hired them for more. I am a professional photographer and worked with them as a vendor first and KNEW I had to have them on my side when I got married!! Their professionalism and organization is top tier. The SSE team was incredible with contact before and on my wedding, planning, organizing, setting up, and running the whole thing. They have helpful tips and recommendations on anything your wedding day may need and will help with it all. They made my brunch wedding day come true, kept everything on time while also being kind, professional, and FUN with all our guests and family! They were there from start to finish with smiles on their faces. I recommend this team to any bride & groom with full confidence every time!

From beginning to end, our team approaches every moment with you in mind. We stand by the belief that no occasion is too big or too small to be handled the utmost level of care and professionalism. Memories and love last a lifetime.

Jacki and her team are simply fabulous! There is so much more to hair and makeup services than simply making you look and feel your best, though they will do that too! Just as important is Jacki's understanding of wedding days and special events, their timelines, working with other vendors as a team, and how best to be able to touch up your makeup throughout the day (esp those lips!) and making sure you look fresh! She takes care to listen to her clients' needs rather than choosing what style to use. Jacki is just one of the kindest, most lighthearted and fun wedding professionals out there. She would be a great addition to your wedding team and be an amazing way to start your day!
