“We LOVED working with Ali!”
“We LOVED working with Ali for our daughter’s wedding in Mexico and reception in Chicago! We found her through a DJ friend of ours who gave us several recommendations. Ali stood out as someone who was solid, grounded and someone who would be more than a functionary doing a job but someone who really cares – this is what we experienced. From start to finish of two wedding weekends that included 9 different events she was exceptional! From navigating numerous complexities involved in the destination wedding in a small town in MX, to tracking a myriad of small details, to bringing an exceptional team together Ali shone brilliantly. We look forward to working with her again!!
-Gertrude Lyons, Mother of the Bride
“Ali is a Musician who Orchestrates Dreams into Reality.”
Ali is not just a wedding planner; she’s a magician who orchestrates dreams into reality. I had the privilege of working with her for not just one, but two of the most significant days of my life – my weddings in Zihuatanejo, MX, and Chicago, IL. To say that Ali exceeded our expectations would be an understatement; she elevated our special days to new a level. If you’re searching for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to make your dreams come true, look no further than Ali. With her unparalleled expertise, meticulous attention to detail, and unwavering commitment to excellence, she will turn your special day into a masterpiece beyond compare.

“Hiring Ali was the Best Decision We Made.”
Hiring Ali was the best decision we made during this entire wedding process! My wedding was 4 days long with 300 guests, so you can imagine it was not easy to plan. I was told multiple times that I was the calmest bride my guests have ever seen, and I owe that to Ali and her team. She was with me for a 10-month planning process, and having her there on the wedding day was so calming! Every detail was taken care of, and more. My wedding was exactly as I wished it. All of my vendors were amazing and I am so very thankful to my planner, and now friend!

“Ali always knows what’s best.”
Ali always knows what’s best for her couples and assembles the most talented people for her team. She brings her creativity, humor and
super-positive attitude to every event she plans and designs. Her closeness with her clients often leads to life-long friendships.

“Ali is the BEST wedding planner out there.”
Ali is the BEST wedding planner out there. Let’s start by how she is the coolest person on the planet. Ali is always concerned about the BRIDE. She is so genuine, sweet, and authentic. Ali is the type of planner who is super organized. She is super calm and extremely personable. She gives great advice and is so wonderful to work with. You’d be sorry for not having her as a planner! Love her!
-Lizzie and Mike
“Her cultural knowledge…was so helpful.”
We hired Ali for full-service planning about a year out. She planned our multi-day, multicultural, fusion wedding, and everything went so smoothly, especially given the complexity of our wedding. Ali is very personable, kind, and full of positive energy. Her cultural knowledge of Indian and Chinese culture was so helpful in the planning process. She is well versed in all the traditions and her thoroughness and knowledge was so helpful in making sure the events flowed well down to the details. If you’re looking for a reliable planner that executes well and has a great personality, I highly recommend Ali Phillips!
