    The Bridal Bestie was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our first call, Alliyah was punctual, calm, and open to answering all of our questions. Her attention to detail was remarkable - she took great pride in ensuring every element of our wedding day was perfectly executed. The Bridal Bestie's team seamlessly handled all of the setup, allowing us to fully enjoy the moments leading up to our ceremony. We are so grateful for their professionalism and hard work, which contributed immensely to making our special day an unforgettable success.

    We loved Alliyah's confidence in us on the wedding day! Alliyah kept us on track throughout the wedding day and was such a lifesaver coordinating with all of our vendors. Alliyah also took a lot of photos and shared them with us that we could look at the next day! Throughout the planning process, Alliyah was super flexible to work with in terms of setting up meetings or rescheduling meetings if we needed. Having Alliyah as our wedding planner was pivotal to so many amazing things that happened at our wedding day!

  • Perfect!

    Alliyah helped my vision come together for our big day! She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything together even though she was my day of coordinator! Multiple check ins and meetings throughout the year I was planning! Can’t recommend her enough! It was definitely a family affair after we had some last minute changes her sister and mom stepped in to be our officiant and bartender! Everything was perfect!

  • Aliyah is truly you bestie in the bridal season!

    I hired Aliyah alittle later than a bride would expect but she made my life 110% easier. Her customer service is top notch. Not only did she deliver what I needed she exceeded my expectations by fills in the gap with a TON of needed things ie: helping us find a cake vendor, helping us with you event insurance, helped us with set up and breakdown.
