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!

In three words: Efficient, Flexible, Practical

    Marissa at Lavender & Rye Events is nothing short of extraordinary. From the very beginning, her communication was impeccable - clear, timely, and reassuring every step of the way. No matter what stage of the planning process we were in, she made sure we knew exactly what needed to be done and when, which made everything feel manageable and even enjoyable. What truly sets Marissa apart is the experience she creates on the wedding day itself. She told us ahead of time that all we would need to do was wake up and say “I do” - and she delivered on that promise. Having been married before, I remember my first wedding being a blur. This time was entirely different. Marissa took care of everything. Because of her, we were able to be fully present - actually enjoying the evening, our guests, and most importantly, each other. The night felt calm, joyful, and seamless, and that is 100% because of her expertise and care. If you are even thinking about hiring a wedding planner, stop searching and hire Marissa. I would recommend her 1000% without hesitation. She is professional, kind, organized, and an absolute master at what she does. Our wedding day was perfect because of her, and we will be forever grateful.

    “All you need to do on your wedding day is show up and say ‘I do.’” That was Marissa’s promise, and she truly delivered! From our initial consultation through months of planning and coordination, Marissa was a steady, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive presence. She knows exactly what questions to ask, when to ask them, and how to guide couples through the process in a way that feels organized rather than overwhelming. Having been married before, I knew firsthand how stressful wedding planning can be; we ultimately eloped the first time because of the anxiety. This time around, we were very intentional about getting help early, and hiring Marissa was one of the best decisions we made. There are countless details to manage, decisions to make, and vendors to coordinate, and Marissa handled all of it with calm confidence. On our wedding day, she oversaw every last detail flawlessly...right down to helping us load leftover wedding cake into the car. Because of her, the day ran smoothly from start to finish, and we were truly able to be present and enjoy the moment. We are endlessly grateful for Marissa’s expertise, dedication, and care. She made our wedding day not only possible, but joyful and stress-free. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

    I would 1,000% recommend Marissa as a wedding coordinator. She was so incredibly helpful and made my wedding day so easy & stress free. From setting up all of my candles (80) at the ceremony with only an hour to do so, to ensuring my reception space was set up correctly, to putting out multiple fires.. she did it all! I definitely recommend booking with her. Thank you for everything!

    MARISSA WAS THE BEST WEDDING COORDINATOR!!! My husband and I can't stress enough how valuable she was to us on our wedding day and leading up to it. She was always on top of everything and vey well organized. She always responded to us quickly and provided helpful insight on wedding day logistics to help our day run smoother. Day of, she was calm, cool, and collected. She took care of everything she said that she was going to do and more. She put out small fires that I never knew happened. She brought my vision for my wedding to life and kept us on schedule. She even helped me with last minute requests I had and took care of things without anyone having to ask. Her efficiency, expertise, and stress relief that she provided was priceless. I HIGHLY recommend her as a wedding day coordinator and would hire her again in a heartbeat!!
