Love Notes

Sharing a few heartfelt excerpts from families I am grateful to forever be a part of… 

“This should absolutely be a handwritten note, but I don’t want to wait a minute longer to get it to you.  With several days to process everything, we are even more thrilled with the wedding now than we were that day (didn’t think that was possible!)

You helped us to create an atmosphere and experience that was everything Allie dreamed of and so much more.  From our very first meeting with you, we all talked about “transformation” – mission accomplished!!  We always saw the potential in the Ridge Club but you unlocked it and created something so beautiful as to be surreal.  And the beauty was just one part of what made the day so special – the attention to detail, the execution, the best vendors and resources in the business and especially the fact that you, Sheri and Carly made it possible for us to forget about everything except having fun and being present with our family and friends.  If I had a dollar for everyone who said “Best wedding I ever attended” it would really help with the bar tab!  

Working with you this year has been so much fun.  I honestly can’t remember a minute of stress.  I went from “why do people need wedding planners?” to “how does anyone do this without a planner?” and more specifically “how and why would anyone do this without Allison??” You are so very good at what you do.  You made magic happen.  We are so grateful!!”  Lisa and Russ, parents of the bride 

“Nothing flowery, just know that we could not have been more delighted with every event you executed – the Rehearsal Dinner, the Welcome Party, the Ceremony, Cocktail Party, Wedding Reception, After Party, and finally the Brunch. Everything was fabulous, beautiful, fun, fun, fun and SO EASY.  The reviews are in and comments are consistent….”In case I forget to say it, I thought yours was the loveliest wedding ever, including mine.” and “Amazing, spectacular, warm, deeply personal, moving, fun, over the top, just great. Smiling all day xxxxx.”    We know we could not have accomplished this feat without your help, guidance and support.  We especially appreciate you providing the rainbow at no extra charge.  Two things:   1. If you every need a full-throated reference, please do not hesitate to serve us up. 2. You had better stop by for a cocktail!”  Scott, father of bride, Wianno Club, Osterville

“From the moment we met,  I knew how incredibly organized, talented, and creative you were. We clicked on a level that I didn’t think was possible, and felt so incredibly at ease with you throughout the entire planning process. You surpassed every expectation, anticipated every need, and I can personally say that there was not a single anxious moment throughout the entire weekend knowing you were a text, phone call, or walk away.  We have received so many emails, calls, and texts, since our wedding from guests who were so impressed with the wedding, realizing that every detail was carefully considered and planned for, and YOU are who we have to thank. You made our wedding more perfect than we could have ever dreamed of, and for that we are eternally grateful.” emailed from Hadley, Bride, Sampson’s Island, Cotuit

“Hiring Allison and EECapeCod was THE best decision we made for our wedding. Allison and her team are absolute perfection – to the point that during our wedding weekend, I had SO many people come up to mention how outstanding they are.  Allison is poised, responsive, an excellent communicator, and beyond helpful navigation of *every* single tiny aspect of wedding planning, Allison took so much off our plate. I honestly don’t know if words can properly express how much we appreciate and adore her and her team. They are simply unbelievable. They deliver 110%.  EECapeCod is simply THE best.” Addison, Bride, Wequassett Resort

“I cannot begin to list all the ways big and small that you “made it happen”. You have a wonderful spirit and your calm is infectious.   Smoothing ruffled feathers is no easy trick. You however, did so with a smile and a quiet word. Thank you. I cannot imagine doing your job and maintaining the cool that you do. ”  Elissa, mother of groom, Scraggy Neck, Bourne

“Words cannot begin to describe the gratitude we have for you and for ALL of the help from the beginning throughout the wedding day and night. You have such a gift.  It was an honor to be able to work with you. You helped us bring our ideas and fantasies to reality and were able to predict my thoughts so easily, it made the planning process a complete pleasure for us!” sent from Kelly & Ed, Bride and Groom, Chatham Bars Inn

As the wedding got closer, I grew more and more in awe of you and your team. When you took my hands and “centered” me when I was about to lose it just 15 minutes before the ceremony, you felt like a life-long friend and THAT is truly priceless!!!!!  Words are inadequate to express my overwhelming appreciation.  I just wanted you to know that all the little details (that become huge details) were simply perfect.”  Sandi, mother of bride, Wequassett

“Your attention to detail, care, warmth, humor, and overall terrific attitude combined with your obvious expertise were completely appreciated! I only wish I had a third daughter so we could do this all over again! ” written by Beth, Mother of Bride, Harwich Port

“We feel a big ‘Allison void’ in our life and can’t tell you enough how much you have meant to us over the past year. You were so much more than a wedding planner, you became a true friend, and that showed in how perfect you made every detail of the wedding for us.” written by Samantha & Rob, Bride and Groom, Hydrangea House, Chatham

“Allison!  Thank you so so so much for everything. The wedding went SO smoothly – literally everything was exactly how I had envisioned it!! Amazing and perfect is what I keep saying to describe the day. Everyone couldn’t get over how nice and helpful you and your team were.” Whitney, bride, Quissett Harbor House, Woods Hole

“Your time, patience, care, professionalism, and expertise allowed us the luxury of knowing that everything was taken care of. Simply said, you were invaluable before, during, and after the wedding, and we were blessed to have you.”  written by Lisa & Joel, Parents of Bride, Chatham Bars Inn

“I just wish we had another daughter so we could do it all over again. You are definetly working in the right field… such an easy-going personality, Nicole and I loved you from day one!” emailed from Jeff, Father of Bride, Wychmere Beach Club

“Thank you SO much for making our wedding such a blast! Everything went so smoothly which allowed everyone to truly stay in the moment.  And on top of that you made the whole planning process so much fun for everyone. We’re so grateful for you! All of our best!” sent from Gigi and Max, bride & groom, Hyannis Port Club

“Allison, You are amazing in every way! Smart, inspirational, calm, caring, creative, assertive and incredibly organized! Your execution was flawless. You made me feel safe and secure knowing that you were always behind the scenes ensuring that everything was perfect. You allowed me to thoroughly enjoy the past twelve months of planning instead of getting caught up in all the stuff that tends to create stress and friction in families. You turned my daughter’s vision into a reality and there’s no price tag you can put on that. I will miss working with you and already look forward to our next wedding!!”  With love and appreciation, Ellen, mother of bride, Oyster Harbors, Osterville

“Allison, it was by far the most special, fun, amazing weekend of our lives.  I don’t think I could have ever envisioned a more beautiful wedding in my dreams. The memories and look of happiness on our parents’ faces the entire night was one of our favorite parts.  Your coordination, positive attitude, sense of calm, enthusiasm and attention to detail are just incredible and contributed to just an amazing experience.  Our wedding night suite at the end of the night was such a surprise with our gifts, slices of wedding cake & champagne waiting.”   Sally, bride, Hyannis Port Club

“We cannot praise you and your staff enough for all your expert knowledge, the support and execution of an absolutely beautiful and perfect wedding. I told everyone you are “priceless”. Every big and small detail was perfectly taken care of which allowed us to relax and enjoy the entire week.  I can go on and on with a million things that over the past 10 months you have helped us decide, plan and organize to make Jenna and Josh’s words “the best day of their lives” Mary Ellen, Mother of Bride, Wychmere Beach Club
