“Where do we even begin- We hired the Opal Affair for wedding Day of Coordination and it was by far the best choice (and money) for our wedding day- Kirsten and Katy made it the absolute best day of our lives!! In the year of planning whenever I had a timeline questions, Kirsten was so quick and helpful in responding and then in the month and week prior to wedding day, she stepped in and took over vendor comms and made sure all the little details that made the day unique and personalized were covered. We had Katy onsite with us and from rehearsal to day of, she helped keep things running smoothly, made sure the bar didn’t run dry and stepped in when health emergencies demanded action and took charge. We so appreciate the Opal Affair going above and beyond for us and our guests- They gave my husband & I such peace of mind that all the details were covered and we couldn’t have done it without you!

Neither of us had any idea what we were doing with regard to planning a wedding and Rachelle didn't hesitate to organize us beautifully and answer every question or scenario we needed help with. She was so kind in every interaction and even made my now husband feel like absolutely everything was taken care of! The wedding weekend went phenomenally all thanks to her. Nathan and I had the most beautiful and blessed day thanks to all of her attention to detail and care for us both. She even caught some incredible picture moments! My one wish was that on the day of the wedding I wouldn't have to have a care in the world for anything but Nathan and Rachelle made that happen without hesitation.

“We LOVED working with Brittany. We had monthly meetings with her for over a year, from the venue search phase to the handoff to our month-of coordinator, and she was so helpful. She helped us with the searches for everything—venue, DJ, photography, day-of coordination, flowers, catering—and provided us timelines and organization tools that were genuinely invaluable. We had very little idea going in exactly what was needed to plan a wedding, but Brittany’s collaboration made us feel very on top of things. She also worked with us to troubleshoot things when issues arose (like our flower provider not following some of our communication requests). And an added bonus is that she’s fun to hang out with lol—we really enjoyed our monthly meetings!! Would absolutely recommend the Venlist (and Brittany specifically)!”

“We hired Marissa to help with our day of coordination for a micro wedding. It was easily the best decision we made. Marissa was available for any and all questions leading up to our day whether it was vendors or timeline. Easy and quick communication. As we got closer to the big day, Marissa created a detailed timeline, shared this with all of our vendors, and jumped on a few calls with our other vendors so she could stay in the know. In the best way possible - on our wedding day, I barely saw Marissa for majority of the day. She arrived and began working on setting up decor, preparing appetizers and desserts, greeting our other vendors and helping them situate themselves. She ran the show and I was able to enjoy getting ready with my friends. I didn't have to make decisions or solve any fires. She handled it all! Once the ceremony was over, she helped us and photo/video with a golden hour photoshoot, communicating with the DJ for our grand entrance, and more. She was there from the start to the end. We cannot recommend Marissa enough!!!”

Stellaluna Events was born out of a passion for creating fulfilling experiences, and we strive to curate celebrations that bring about feelings of comfort and belonging. We don't believe weddings are about choosing certain decor just because it's trendy or overspending to impress your guests. Your wedding or event should be about gathering a group of your favorite people together to celebrate. It's about making a meaningful memory to treasure for the rest of your life. We love couples who throw out tradition. Let us encourage you to do it differently.

“I can’t express enough how grateful I am for Hannah!! When we found ourselves in a bit of a last-minute scramble, she stepped in with grace and an incredible sense of calm. From the very first moment, Hannah took our stress away and turned our vision into a beautiful reality, far beyond what we could have ever imagined. She not only embraced our ideas but enhanced them with her own creativity and attention to detail, making our wedding day truly magical. Every detail felt perfectly aligned with our vision, showing how deeply she understood and cared about what we wanted. It was like having a friend who just got us, making sure everything was exactly as we hoped. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make your day extraordinary, look no further. We couldn’t have done it without Hannah and we will be forever grateful for her kindness and commitment. Thank you so much for turning our dreams into reality and for making our wedding day unforgettable. We can’t recommend you highly enough!”
