A. Merisier Event Coordination & Design - Dix Hills, New York

Royal

We had booked Ashley much later in the planning process, but even though we had gotten some things prior to our big day, we basically didn’t know everything about planning a wedding in full. Ashley came on and made EVERYTHING easier and simpler. She has so many connections with other vendors that she put us in the right direction to have everything for our wedding. She was so attentive with everything, whether email or phone call, she was always there. If you need someone to get on a vendor about answering emails and price, you get Ashley. She’s going to get your answers.

But what I most love about Ashley, she is very personable. With her, it didn’t feel like a business transaction between us and her, it felt most like a relationship with a big sister/cool auntie. She will give you advice, calm your nerves and make you feel like everything is going to be alright. My wife and I love Ashley and she will forever be our friend.

Hiring Ashley Merisier was the best decision I made!! I love her crazy OCD personality. She was focused on perfecting all the details as much as I was! I actually had to stop her from reprinting dinner menus because she didn’t like the quality of the paper it was printed on. She will be bridezilla on your behalf so you don’t have to be!

The speed Ashley worked at to get everything in order was amazing!! Because of Ashley’s connections I got an amazing deal on my rentals (tables, linens, charger plates). She managed all the contracts, rentals, timeline, guest list, COVID regulations, all vendors, all the last minute disasters (and there were plenty). Due to COVID Delta Variant my guest list was decreasing by the day. Ashley adjusted my rentals, seating chart along with per person cost on a daily basis. My hair stylist cancelled on me the night before, the menu printing was delayed due to a storm the night before, the cake was delayed. A bride’s worst nightmare!! Ashley worked all night.. to get me newly printed menus, stood outside a salon to get hair extensions, called around cake places to get a new quote under my budget …and then somehow this crazy woman managed to stay until 3am the night of my wedding to sure everything was in order and my vendors cleaned out.

Trust me when I say this the number of things that will go wrong no matter how much you plan is crazy…this is where a wedding planner is a life saver. Not just any wedding planner but a one that is willing to go the extra mile! I had spoken to wedding planners who charge by the hour. Trust me when I say this please hire someone who is willing to work around the clock and a personality you get along with!

She was also so sweet and helped me out with an event I was having prior to my wedding which was not included in our contract. When I say this woman goes above and beyond I meant it. She was worth every penny!!

Ashley was always focused on my needs. I can’t thank her enough because of her I was able to relax and enjoy my my wedding!!

As a wedding photographer, I often encounter situations where weddings lack organization, causing delays and missing stuff. However, when we work with a planner like Ashley from A. Merisier Events, she completely changes the game. We worked with Ashley several times and it is always an absolute pleasure. Her meticulous planning, clear communication, and keen eye for detail greatly contributed to capturing stunning moments throughout the wedding. She makes the day go so smoothly and everything goes on time. I highly recommend A. Merisier Events to couples seeking not only a flawlessly executed wedding but also a fantastic team player who values the artistry of photography.

Ashley is one of the best planners that I have worked with in the in wedding industry. Not only is she detailed when it comes to the flow and timeline of the day but she is also personable, funny and professional. She understands the needs of a bride especially when it comes to the morning of the wedding which as a bridal hairstylist is important to me. If you're looking for someone who will take care of you on your wedding day and make it an easy process look no further and book Ashley!!

Ashley is a detail oriented and focused planner and event designer. She is all about the clients satisfaction and will ensure the client will receive the best service from all vendors and enjoy their moneys worth. Ashley is specific about certain aspects of an event and I know you will not regret working with her.

Ashley is the most enthusiastic and creative person to plan a wedding with! She is smart, sweet, patient, honest, transparent, creative and well organized. Whether you know exactly what you want your wedding to look like or you're more like me with a loose mix of ideas, Ashley pulls it all together to make your wedding a dream come true; it's like she's seen the inside of your mind!
We loved our amazing "backyard" wedding, which was just a week ago! My family has been having parties in that yard for decades and when family and friends showed up who have been to those gatherings over the years, they were in disbelief of how it was absolutely transformed. It was already a beautiful space but Ashley took that beauty to new heights with the clear tent, dancefloor over the pool, string lighting, chandeliers, flowers, amazingly delicious catering and cocktails, etc. We had some eccentric requests and she made it all work and look amazing.
She's absolutely a crazy person, but in the best way that makes you realize how much she genuinely cares about your day and your happiness.
We love her and can't recommend her enough.

Ashley is exceptional. I worked with Ashley officiating a wedding that she was the planner for and she was unflappable. In spite of having a limited lead time she got everything taken care of that needed to be and was thorough and clear every step of the way. Communication and problem solving skills unparalleled to other event folks I've worked with. Highly recommend hiring her!

Ashley is very organized and always quick to respond to emails. Her optimistic attitude was encouraging. She takes charge of coordinating with all vendors and making sure everyone was on the same page with the timeline and every detail. Also, she is fun to work with. She made my day easy and I'd love to work with her again in the future.
