About Lavender & Rye Events

Lavender & Rye Events

Owner

Over the past 10 years, I have enjoyed helping friends & family plan many events. It was after planning my own wedding, that I realized I wanted to continue helping others create unforgettable events too! Outside of working, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our pets and my bonus daughter! I also enjoy baking, traveling, gaming, and gardening.

I have the skills & ability to help keep things organized & running smoothly before, during & after any event. I work on all types of events, from start to finish. I have worked with weddings that have a guest count of 50 or 500. I have a professional Wedding Planner certification from IAP Career College. Please check out some of my previous work!

    Marissa was clear, calm, and collected the entirety of our wedding journey. She helped my wife and I feel stress free the day of, and was always available for any and every need we had. She was prompt with her responses, and constantly checking in on us throughout the afternoon and evening. We are so happy with how our day turned out, and Marissa was a huge piece!

    Marissa was perfect. She built timelines for everyone, took over the day of coordination from me (the MOH), which allowed me to actually enjoy my daughters wedding. Marissa met the Bride & Bridesmaids at the hotel to ensure they left on time, she helped decorate the venue with of our personal touches. She herded cats (the groomsmen), ensured the reception activities all happened as planned, and she even helped us pack up at the end of it all. Hiring Marissa is the best investment I made in the wedding budget! I was able to comfortably and confidently turn everything over to Marissa on the Wedding Day allowing me to be the MOH and not a chicken with my head cut off. Thank you Marissa!!!

    Marissa, I can't thank you enough for all the support you provided during our wedding planning journey. You truly had a remarkable way of alleviating so much of the stress that comes with such a big event. On our special day, you made everything feel just right, exactly as I had envisioned. Your dedication and care meant the world to us, and we are incredibly grateful for everything you did. You not only helped everything run smoothly, but you also made the day so enjoyable for us. Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable and for being such a wonderful coordinator. We appreciate you more than words can express.

    Marissa was amazing for my wedding day! She was very responsive and she helped me plan out my outlines and keep everything in order. My guests really liked her and said she was very communicative and informative. She is so sweet and checked on me several times throughout my wedding day making sure if I needed anything. She made my whole wedding experience so much easier and relaxed. I was able to trust her judgement and she was always very honest with her opinions. She was also organized and knew exactly what I wanted on my wedding day. She listened to what I wanted for my wedding and helped me execute it. She also helped clean up and pack up everything at the end of the night which made things so much easier for all of us. I honestly don’t know if I would have had such a smooth wedding day without her! She is amazing and definitely recommend her to everyone!!
