Miranda P. Married on 01/10/2022100% Recommend!
Hiring Alfresco Wedding and Events to be my day of coordinator was the best investment I made on my wedding day. The services I received was 100% worth the fair price they charge. We got married two weeks ago at Millbrook Cathedral. I had Liz as my contact source to start then I had Krista as the main coordinator on my wedding day. Krista was fun, feisty, organized and on point with every single detail. At one point, Krista was all up in my dress helping me bustle it so I could dance easier. The next moment she was helping a guest find an item they lost. Krista grabbed me food and helped me feel calm. I am sure Krista dealt with stuff behind the scenes but we never knew because things went so smoothly. Krista was a warm and fun presence and my fiance and I had minimal stress on our wedding day. Alfresco even uses this awesome program to make a full day of itinerary that you can collaborate on and share with your wedding party. Alfresco set up all of our decor and packed everything up nicely for us. Overall, I would 10/10 recommend hiring Alfresco Weddings and Events, they are worth every dollar and we couldn't have done it without them! Thanks :)Alfresco Weddings and Events's reply:

Olivia A. Married on 11/02/2023Five stars are not enough
I cannot recommend Liz and Alfresco weddings strongly enough. Book them if you can!!!! From the beginning reaching out and asking about their services they were so quick to respond and with such a full description of their available services. And the VALUE oh my god!!!! Liz and her wonderful assistant Danielle came from Ottawa all the way out to Orangeville to take part in our wedding. Liz was present for the rehearsal the night prior and bright and early the day of. She made our day run so smoothly, I couldn’t tell you the number of people who said “I have never been to a wedding without a single hiccup or delay, until today” she was so supportive and worked so seamlessly with all of our vendors. I never imagined that the month in advance of my wedding would be the least stressful time of the entire planning process but she and her team are spectacular! Thank you so much Liz and Danielle you helped make our day so special and SO RELAXING!! And I’ll say it one more time BOOK THEM you will not regret it!Alfresco Weddings and Events's reply:
Olivia and Thomas! It was our pleasure to be a part of your special day. Thank you so much for the very kind words, it means so much! You had the perfect Winter Wonderland-themed wedding, it was EPIC!
I wish you both a lifetime of happiness, health, and love
Liz

Courtney S. Married on 06/08/2022So grateful to Liz!
Planned and replanned our wedding numerous times due to Covid. We had Liz along for the ride and we are so grateful for her expertise and passion. She was invested in my evolving vision of our wedding and had wonderful suggestions and recommendations. It was so beneficial having her manage everyone and everything on the day of our wedding. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you to Liz and her team! -

Sarah Married on 02/10/2021Liz Is Fantastic!
Liz was very helpful with scheduling meetings with us throughout the pandemic to ensure that all of our questions and concerns were taken care of before our big day. She is wonderful! -

Dianna T. Married on 09/07/2021Best decision I’ve made!
Liz is by far the best investment I have made during my wedding planning experience and it’s not even my wedding day yet! She has been there for me every step of the way to help me navigate the crazy waters of event planning. She’s so easy to reach and responds very quickly to all your calls/emails. She really supports you through all the decisions from “is there anything else I should ask this vendor before I book them?” to “I just need to talk this out cause I’m starting to feel overwhelmed!”. I would 100% recommend her because she has truly been a godsend and gives me so much peace of mind knowing my wedding day will run smoothly with her there to run the show.Alfresco Weddings and Events's reply:
Dianna, I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate your kind words! It made my day!
I can't wait to see you walk down the aisle!

Corinne S. Married on 04/05/2021Liz was wonderful!
When me and my husband decided to get married, we decided to do it at the Millbrook Cathedral because it was close to his hometown and of how unique the venue was. Liz met us for our tour and she was so warm and I felt that she was personally invested in our special day.
Last year, we thought our wedding wasn’t going to be impeded by COVID restrictions. I just felt like I was getting bad news, and I was super thankful that I had hired Liz as my wedding planner because she kept me in the loop about wedding restrictions, she gave me options and most of all, I had someone to talk to. As a bride, planning your own wedding is super stressful and then adding on top of that a pandemic— wow.
I didn’t intend to have a wedding planner initially but boy I don’t have any regrets. From video calls, phone calls, text messages to our wedding day, Liz was there. She helped us with our music! She even took care of the decor! The venue was beautiful and intimate and everything you would want for a wedding in a pandemic! So please, hire her because you really don’t need all that stress for the most important day of your life. -

Meghan P. Married on 27/11/2020Covid wedding
When our original dream of getting married in Jamaica fell apart due to covid Liz helped us realize a new dream here at home. Liz was amazing at helping us plan our micro-wedding in a short 4 months in the midst of a pandemic. Thank you Liz for making our day so special -

Kaitlyn Married on 21/11/2020Could not have gotten married without Liz!
We worked with Liz throughout 2020 getting ready for our wedding on 11/21/20, and I can honestly say that there is no way our wedding day would have gone off so perfectly had she not been involved! Planning a wedding is no easy task on a regular year, but trying to plan during a pandemic was stressful to say the least. Liz went above and beyond to offer help in so many ways and made the planning process so easy and seamless! She was organized, efficient, and flexible - the day of our wedding went so smoothly and we were able to relax and enjoy knowing that Liz was there to handle everything. We cannot recommend her enough and we would not hesitate to hire her again for any future events we might have! Thanks again Liz :) -

After many years of working as an Analyst and keeping customers happy, I decided it was time for a career change. With a passion for details and the heart of a true romantic, I was immediately drawn to wedding planning. After becoming certified through the Wedding Planning Institute of Canada, Alfresco Wedding Planner was launched, and it quickly became apparent that this was my true calling.
I have a calm and welcoming demeanor – I can put even the most anxious couple at ease with my friendly smile and ability to keep couples focused on the big picture while I handle all of the details. I believe in always looking at the positive side of every situation, and I'm head-over-heels in love with being a wedding planner. When I'm not busy planning weddings, I love spending time with my daughter and my two dogs.
Funny story about Krista, Liz was actually the day of coordinator for her wedding!
Krista enjoyed the experience of planning her own wedding so much she decided to pursue a career in wedding & event planning afterwards. We're so grateful she did!
Krista is the funniest person you will ever meet. Having her at your event is truly the best because she'll have you laughing so much you'll honestly forget any nerves. Her favourite moment in any wedding is that magical split second where a bride/groom sees their partner for the first time before they walk down the aisle (we couldn't agree more!).
If you've ever worked with Krista, you'll know how much she truly loves the satisfaction of seeing an event finally come together and admiring the smiles of a happy client.
We are happy to have her as part of the Alfresco team!
We are so thrilled to have Pamela on the Alfresco team!
Pamela is the talent behind our new hand lettering service. She discovered a love of hand lettering in 2016 and has been providing gorgeous custom art including welcome signs, seating charts, table numbers & decorative signage ever since.
Her talent doesn't end there! She has worked in event planning since 2013 and brings a keen eye for detail, efficiency, and enthusiasm for creating beautiful things to every event she works.
When she's not working her magic at events, Pamela is also an animal lover and a big fan of the outdoors (although camping is where she draws the line 😂).
Fun fact about Pamela, she was born, raised, and started her career in events in the Greater London Area in England. She moved to Canada in 2014, and although not the biggest fan of snow she sure prefers it to all the rain in England.
