ovial was absolutely incredible for our wedding. Ally took care of every detail, kept everything running smoothly, and allowed us to fully relax and enjoy our night.

She was attentive, professional, organized, and always one step ahead — exactly what you want in a day-of coordinator. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free.

We could not have asked for a better coordinator and highly recommend Ally to any couple wanting their wedding day to run perfectly.

Ally both met and exceeded my expectations! She provided assistance in ceremony coordination (music, bridal party line up, etc) and flipping my venue from ceremony to reception during cocktail hour. She provided multiple tools throughout the planning process to organize my thoughts and ideas. She also provided multiple meeting times with flexible availability to talk through plans and details I hadn’t thought of. Having Ally coordinate my ceremony and flip was the best gift I could’ve received on my wedding day - everything went as smooth I could’ve hoped for. Would 110% recommend her to anyone getting married needing help with coordination!

I cannot say enough good things about Jovial Planning and Coordination! I knew from the first meeting I had with Ally that she would bring a calming presence to the wedding planning/process. She is so kind and sweet, she made everyone feel at ease on what could have been such a stressful day. Her communication was prompt, organized, and thoughtful. She kept everyone on time for the wedding which was a huge relief for my fiancé and myself (and my mom!) so that we could enjoy our wedding. Ally even went above and beyond by helping my bridesmaids with bustling my dress (and even though it was confusing and took a long time, Ally never seemed stressed about it! Totally calm under pressure!!). The quality of her work was outstanding - she went above and beyond to ensure our special day was amazing, from setting up decorations to perfectly timing out our processional song (so that I could walk down the aisle at the exact moment of the song that I wanted to), and everything in between. Jovial Planning and Coordination truly made our wedding day flawless, and I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding planning experience!

Ally maintained a professional yet friendly communication style throughout the planning process. The quality of her work was exceptional - she brought great structure and organization to our wedding, while also showcasing creativity in the ceremony lineup and keeping us on track with a seamless timeline from start to finish. I had no stress or concern for the entire day, as I felt I could trust Ally completely with every step of the way. The services provided incredible value and I would highly recommend Jovial Planning and Coordination to any couple planning their wedding.

I was lucky enough to win Jovial planning and coordination services in a instagram contest, and I truly couldn’t have imagined how incredible the experience would be! From the very first meeting, Ally was professional, organized, and so easy to work with. She treated my wedding with the same care and attention as if I were one of her full-paying clients — which says so much about her character and dedication. She handled every detail flawlessly — from communicating with vendors and assisting in creating the timeline to keeping everything running smoothly on the big day. Thanks to her, I was able to actually relax and enjoy every moment without worrying about a single thing. Our day was absolutely perfect, and I know it wouldn’t have been the same without her expertise and assistance. My husband and I are extremely grateful we won her services and would highly recommend Ally to any couple looking for wedding coordination services.

October 2025

We worked with Ally as our wedding coordinator, and we couldn’t recommend her more! From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, organized, and knowledgeable - especially when it came to our ceremony at the Jewel Box in Forest Park, which is known for having an extremely strict timeline. From the moment we booked the venue, Ally guided us through ceremony timing and logistics, putting our minds completely at ease knowing she would be running the show.

Our rehearsal was efficient and perfectly organized thanks to her direction, and on our wedding day, she went above and beyond. As the venue coordinator, she was able to access the space early, set up all of our decor beautifully, and ensured that everything ran seamlessly from start to finish. The ceremony went off without a hitch, and we owe that to Ally’s calm, collected presence and attention to detail.

Whether you need help with coordination, planning, or decorating, you’ll be in great hands with Ally!

November 2025

Ally was without a doubt the most important piece to our wedding!! She was so important during the planning process and brought up so many good tips and tricks I would never have thought about. She gave us a perfect timeline to work from and allowed us to go about our day blissfully happy while keeping us on track with everything we had planned. We had a lot of moving parts on our day including lots of DIY decor, desserts, flowers as well as setting up a champagne tower and coordinating our guests here and there for our first dance on an outside dock - she made it all happen! She also coordinated everything with the vendors and took a huge load of the work off of me. I’m sure she put out a lot of fires we never even knew existed. She seamlessly set up the reception of my dreams and broke it all down following the reception. She quite honestly had our backs throughout the whole process and was so down to earth and extremely nice/fun/easy to work with! On top of it all, she took beautiful pictures and videos of the reception all set up as well as our first dances with our parents! None of our guests took videos of our dances and it would have been heartbreaking not to have them! She seriously thought of it all - do NOT hesitate to hire Jovial! We couldn’t have done it without her!!

Ally was amazing to work with. From the beginning, she helped answer any questions and made me feel comfortable. She offered multiple meetings and was willing to go to the venue to do a walkthrough as well. When the wedding day came, Ally handled all my decoration setups, got my tip envelopes to the right people, helped us stay on schedule, and helped me stay relaxed. Ally also helped with vendor communication and cleaned up all the decor at the end of the night. Ally is an amazing person, and anyone who needs help with their wedding coordinating—I highly recommend Ally!

Ally's commitment to making our vision a reality, regardless of any cultural or language barriers, truly went above and beyond.

Ally is very organized and professional, she was the perfect liaison to each of our wedding vendors and owned these relationships upon hire. She assisted in all aspects of our ceremony, reception site, band/DJ arrangement, floral design, seating charts, menu selections, favors and dress fittings. Ally went above and beyond to ensure my vision for our wedding day was met and actually, it was exceeded. My husband and I were able to focus on our family and friends and truly enjoy the day - it goes by so fast in the moment. She was present for the entire event and made sure all details were delivered, she even recorded our first dance and I will cherish that forever! If you are a bride looking for the best wing woman (I didn't want to burden my bridesmaids) to take most of the pressure off of you - Ally is the woman! Thank you for helping me have one of the best days of my life!
