We don't live in the area, so our meetings were all via video chat, which worked out really well. She made sure that the ceremony was exactly what we were hoping for!

My partner and I are SO HAPPY that we decided to hire Gala Events for our day of coordination…read more Alegria was such a blessing in our experience. I am getting teary even as I write this, thinking of her support. We are a queer couple who's wedding was postponed 2 years in a row due to the pandemic and a medical emergency in the family. We also had to change venues and caterer during all of the challenges. The path to our wedding day was not simple or easy, but Alegria's support and expertise made it all manageable. She was immediately responsive and loving about our concerns related to potential homophobia we might experience through our process. We never once felt othered or treated differently as a queer couple, something we are sensitive to. My spouse is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, and Alegria was immediately honoring and respectful. All of this makes a big difference when you've experienced prior homophobia in the place where you grew up. And when medical emergencies and the pandemic kept throwing up big barriers, Alegria was the calm in the storm. She joined us in grounded decision making, was thoughtful and informed, and really demonstrated so much care during the hard parts. When we had challenges with our past vendors that we ended up not working with, she had such helpful advice. And on our actual wedding day, which was so beautiful and perfect, Alegria joined us in our vision of a big community celebration. She and her staff were so so kind and thoughtful, so supportive. They made us feel special while reducing decision fatigue and stress. She worked with our vendors beautifully, and the day of we were able to truly relax and be present. We could not have asked for better. Thank you, Gala Events!! xo Erin + Ames

Our minds were totally at ease the entire day, knowing she would take care of it all. Our reception was located at my parent's home and my hope was that my mom would not feel like she needed to host. At the end of the night, she said she was able to fully focus on being mother of the bride and enjoying herself, knowing it was all taken care of. That's ultimately the strength of having a wedding planner like Talia and I would recommend her to absolutely anyone.

Talia went to the event center several weeks before and created a floor plan that was ideal for the party. She made sure every detail was taken care of. From planning beautiful balloons at the entrances, creating the ideal balloon centerpieces, and coordinating the check in tables, Talia made the night a memorable success. On the day of the event, Talia arrived early to make sure that the vendors arrived on time and was there to answer any questions regarding set up. The room looked stunning when we walked in. During the event she made sure that everything ran without a flaw. She checked in all the cell phones, directed our guests and was there to answer any questions that arose. When the event was over, she helped with returning cell phones, passing out treat bags and then she stayed and made sure that the take down was completed. The best part about having Talia at the event is I didn't have to worry about anything that evening. I was able to sit back and celebrate with my daughter, family and friends. I would highly recommend having Talia help you plan any of your events. She is professional, has a great eye for detail and goes above your expectations.
