Sharpe Event Planning - Long Beach, New York

Alyssa is an incredible wedding planner. My husband & I had a Nigerian wedding ceremony + a Western wedding ceremony in the same weekend. This was a lot to manage logistically with two different vendors, different sets of vendors, etc. She was so on top of everything, told us what we needed to do throughout the process, and was so available to chat with us at any time. Would absolutely recommend Alyssa to any couple!

I had the pleasure of having Alyssa as my wedding planner on June 11th. There isn’t any other word to describe Alyssa than AMAZING! She was always just a text away throughout the entire planning process and it truly felt like I was just planning with one of my friends. She is so friendly and I could tell quickly she was going to work endlessly to make my wedding the best it could be! I didn’t get to meet Alyssa until the day of my wedding, but it honestly felt like I was just running into a friend. She made my wedding day go so smoothly and if there were any issues I would have had no idea as she handled everything and anything throughout the day. I truly can call Alyssa a friend now. She loves what she does and you can tell in the way she will manage your special day ❤️

To say our wedding was the most fun and flawless night ever would be an understatement. My husband and I had a black tie optional, 225 person, Saturday night wedding at the Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers in NYC. We started planning our wedding approximately 10 months prior to the date and Alyssa was with us every step of the way. From finding the wedding venue, to the DJ to the food, she was always there. Hiring Alyssa to help with our wedding planning was 1 million percent worth it, and I was never in the least bit stressed throughout the process.

Alyssa got to know us well prior to the wedding planning process. Then, she would always give us a few top-notch options for vendors, and as she knew us so well, one of them was always a home run. We never had to second guess our choices and had a lot of negotiation lee-way with the vendors because of Alyssa. Once the major vendors were out of the way, it came down to the details and Alyssa did not miss a beat. She was ahead of the curve, made a detailed timeline, slowly checked all items off the list (including the little details such as monogrammed cocktail napkins) and finished the planning approx. 3 weeks to a month prior to our big day.

Although Alyssa was also running a business she made us feel like we were her only client. From answering emails at 1am on Saturday, to texting us to see how we were doing, to accompanying us to any appointment we wanted, she always put our needs and feelings above all else.

Throughout the whole process, Alyssa also became a friend. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone as she made me feel like the most special, calm bride in the world. My husband and our families would say the same.

My brother and sister both got married this past year and each used Alyssa as their wedding planner. Despite having to plan for two weddings within one month of each other, Alyssa gave her full attention to both of them and was there every step of the way. Her attentiveness and knowledge of all aspects of planning are second to none. Alyssa took her time getting to know each couple and listening to precisely what it was they were looking for. She knew exactly which vendors could fulfill those needs and never made you feel pressured into making a decision. As we met with each vendor, you could tell they all have great respect for Alyssa and enjoy working with her. She customized both weddings to deliver upon each couple’s specific requests and executed every aspect to perfection. Alyssa was overly responsive from start to finish and provided the enjoyable, stress-free planning experience every engaged couple hopes for. She is a kind and caring person with a strong work ethic. I highly recommend Sharpe Event Planning for weddings and any other event you may be planning for!

Alyssa Sharpe is an incredible professional: knowledgeable, hard working, and always “can do.” No problem is too large for her to solve. Alyssa helped me with all of the details in the lead up to the wedding as well as the various “day of” event coordination. To say that she was a lifesaver is an understatement! Alyssa is the consummate expert: organized, detail oriented, efficient, and an absolutely lovely human. I would recommend Alyssa 150%!

Really doesn’t get better than Alyssa! I’ve been a bridesmaid 14 times and most recently I was in a dear friend’s wedding as the officiant. Alyssa was so on top of everything and made everyone including the bride so calm and comfortable. She went way beyond her duties even reaching out to me directly before the wedding and helping me with all my questions and needs (it was my first time officiating). I’ve never seen a wedding come together so perfectly and that was in large part thanks to Alyssa’s meticulous planning and organization!! HIGHLY recommend!

Alyssa worked with my son and I in planning his Bar Mitzvah. We worked closely together for over a year. I can't say enough phenomenal things about Alyssa. She is beyond patient, resourceful, creative and above all she is a fantastic listener. She really thinks about what the client is saying and she is not afraid to do extra work or make last minute changes if this is what she knows will ultimately be in the best interest of her client. While she does have excellent relationships with many renown vendors, she knows that her client is her first priority and always works her hardest to negotiate the best prices and is unafraid to walk away from them if she thinks her clients best interest aren't being served. Alyssa is also capable of managing large budgets and is highly organized in keeping financial records and files up to date and accurate. She is creative and resourceful and for our large party, she left not a single detail out. The event was simply sensational, entirely to her credit. Above all, Alyssa is honestly the nicest person; she always has a smile, always happy to help and her sincerity and kindness shines through in all that she does.

My fiancé and I got married this past October on Long Island, NY. We could have never created, or even imagined, such a flawless and perfect day without the meticulous attention to detail Alyssa Sharpe of Sharpe Event Planning provided. Alyssa is not only professional, organized, responsive, and punctual, but she is sincere, genuine and absolutely loves what she does. Alyssa’s attention to detail, organizational skills and ability to deliver upon each and every request (no matter how big or small) truly made for a stress free and enjoyable wedding planning experience. Alyssa listened to every idea I had and was able to execute it in a personalized and elegant way. I would strongly recommend Sharpe Event Planning for any affair, not just a wedding!
