Testimonials
I am so grateful for Olivia and all of her help on our wedding day! Olivia began working with us in the weeks leading up to the big day, and from the start, she was incredibly organized, thoughtful, and understanding. She listened to all our ideas and worked closely with us to ensure everything ran smoothly. In addition to creating a detailed timeline, Olivia was there to lend a helping hand throughout the day. Her calm, positive demeanor was such a relief on a day that can feel like it's happening all at once! One of our guests even said, 'I've never been to a wedding where everything has run so smoothly and on time.' I think that really says it all about Olivia!

From our first interaction with Olivia at Afterglow Weddings and Events, we were impressed by her timely, respectful, and engaging communication style. Throughout the planning process, Olivia proved to be incredibly detail-oriented, ensuring every aspect of our wedding day was well-executed and thoroughly planned. As procrastinators, my husband and I were grateful for Olivia's reliability in keeping us on track every step of the way. Olivia truly went above and beyond, making our day a dream come true and being there for our families as well. No matter what curve balls were thrown her way, Olivia handled them with grace and expertise. Our day would not have been the same without Olivia's exceptional service, and we could not recommend Afterglow Weddings and Events more highly.

I cannot recommend Afterglow Weddings and Events enough.
Olivia is truly a star and went above and beyond for our wedding day. She worked with my husband and I 3 months before the day to build an airtight timeline, which I quickly learned is easier said than done, shared us into a platform that helped everyone track progress, and was a wonderful communicator with all of our vendors.
The day of our wedding, she set up our decor and I could not believe how amazing everything looked. It was a TON of stuff and she managed so well with the help of an assistant. Any extra flowers and candles were so artfully placed. Throughout all of this time, she was kind, calm, professional and was genuinely excited for my husband and I on our big day. She also has a whole bag of goodies should anything go wrong. Spilled a bit on your dress? She’s got chalk to help cover it up!
A HUGE thank you to Olivia as well as her assistant. We had the very best time on our wedding day and so much of that can be attributed to them relieving any stress!

“Afterglow was fantastic to work with for our 3/30 wedding. Olivia and team are extremely professional, punctual, and organized - exactly what I needed during a very stressful crunch time. Olivia took care of everything I needed help with in the weeks leading up to our wedding and on the wedding day. She executed everything perfectly to our vision and ensured the day was smooth and we stayed on schedule. She even had helpful recommendations for vendors that we ended up hiring for our day. She communicated with our venue on our behalf, helped answer my many questions, and accommodated last minute details and changes.
I trusted her fully and am 1000% glad I hired her. Seriously snag her up if you can, she was a huge help and instrumental in making our day wonderful and easy! I can't recommend Afterglow enough! THANK YOU!.”
