Reviews of Boutiq Weddings and Events (Event Planner)

James Dunkley

Can't say enough about how amazing Alexandra was to work with! If you are looking for someone to help with your wedding planning, who is professional, knowledgeable, and experienced, I HIGHLY recommend Alexandra (Boutiq Weddings and Events). She reduced a lot of the stress we would have experienced if it weren't for her, and set us up with some really great vendors. She asked real questions about our preferences and budgets and genuinely appreciated our positions. She didn't make us feel pressured to spend way more than we planned, yet she still created an amazing atmosphere. When it came to vendors, she hit it out of the park! The Floreat she recommended created the most amazing arrangements I've seen. The photographer captured photos that took our breath away. Alexandra was also extremely efficient on communication, which was really important to us. There were absolutely not issues there. All in all- we had an amazing time with Alexandra and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking!

We had a wonderful wedding planning experience with Alexandra. She made our wedding day in Banff very easy and relaxing. She's one of Calgary's premier wedding planners, and I'd recommend her to anyone in need of small or big wedding planning services.

Alexandra went above and beyond, and took care of every single detail of our destination wedding in Kananaskis. We live in Winnipeg, so we had to rely on her opinion and judgement for many decisions, and she completely blew us away with her professionalism and eye for quality. Can't recommend her enough!

I’ve worked with Alexandra on shoots and as a vendor for several years. It’s always a pleasure to arrive on site and see her. Her ability to handle stressful situations in incredibly professional and her clients are always her focus. Couples are in great hands when dealing with her and her team.

Kristina Rinner-Dolinski

As a bride with a vision that consisted of 26 individually designed tables and large number of small details around two different rooms I knew I needed someone I could trust to help me pull it all together. As a month-of-coordinator, Alexandra went above and beyond to make sure all of the details were perfect. I was relaxed the entire day of my wedding because I knew that I could rely on her to make sure everything was perfect. It made the day so much more enjoyable! I couldn't imagine my wedding without her! Thank you so much for everything! You're truly the best! I highly recommend Alexandra!

We hired Alexandra for the "Partial Planning" package and it was some of the best money we spent for the wedding. Alexandra is extremely professional, kind, creative, and so easy to work with. Her communication skills are excellent - she responded to all emails within a day. She provided a list of her preferred vendors which all turned out amazing. Her suggestions were always respectful and never pushy. She listened to what we envisioned for our day and brought it to life. Finally, the actual day of the wedding could not have gone any better!!! Everything ran right on time and she ensured that my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing!! It was truly the best day of our lives and we credit Alexandra for this. If you are considering hiring a wedding planner for your big day, I wholeheartedly recommend Boutiq Weddings - you won't regret it. Thank you, Alexandra, for being so fabulous! Xx Chantal & Ryan Leo

Alexandra did an absolutely fabulous job of arranging our perfect small, intimate family wedding...at short notice! She understood what we were looking for and delivered a wedding tailor made for us, within budget! Alexandra put us in touch with top class vendors (photographers; officiant; venue and more..) and then basically made all the arrangements, allowing us to spend time with family who had traveled from far and wide to be with us.

Annie Dormuth

Thank you to Alexandra for sticking with us throughout three different wedding dates and for making every step of the wedding planning process seamless during all the changes. Our day was everything we wanted with the help of Alexandra who literally took the stress away. It takes a village to plan and execute a wedding, and because of Alexandra our day was absolutely perfect.

Heather Larke

Thank you Alexandra and team!! Our wedding was perfect - even the weather!!! We appreciated your attention to detail. We didn't worry about a thing on our wedding day!! Heather and Barry Hucik

I can’t recommend Alexandra and Boutiq Weddings highly enough. After an unforeseen personal event, and a death in the family, I was in no shape to pull my daughter’s wedding together. Alexandra stepped in at the last minute and I was left wondering why I didn’t contract her from the beginning. She took care of absolutely everything and was always just an e-mail away, a boon since I am in Toronto and the bride and groom are in England. We were all able to descend upon Banff and truly become guests at our own event. I didn’t spend one minute on the wedding day having to attend to anything….Alexandra and her assistant Mary were in complete control. I felt like a celebrity with my star wedding planner.

I highly recommend Boutiq events! Alexandra is amazing. We hired her to plan our wedding. We got the full package. Alexandra was incredibly helpful, organized and professional. She had great suggestions for decorations and timeline. Whatever questions we had, she always had a good answer. We actually enjoyed the whole planning process because of Alexandra's help. The day of was also headache free. We didn't have to worry about anything except to have fun and enjoy the day. Again I couldn't recommend her enough.

Vivian Cheng

Alexandra was so helpful from the beginning to the end. I remember before I called her I was panicking with the amount of stuff that we had to make sure was done properly. Alexandra met with us many times throughout the process to make sure that we were comfortable with the day, she offered us a wide selection of different vendors who all turned out to be amazing (makeup / hair / flowers / photography), and she stayed with us to the very end of the wedding day to help us close up. My partner and I were able to have an amazing wedding because of her, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to have a stress -free wedding day. Vivian

Alexandra was wonderful to work with, and did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding! We hired Alexandra about three and half months prior to the wedding, with a vision, but very little organized other than the venue and band -- plus we were organizing the entire wedding from out of town! Her attention to detail is phenomenal! She helped us with all of the vendors, timelines, and all coordination of the day of, but more importantly, she went above and beyond with all of the details that really made the wedding perfect! She has excellent judgement, is extremely organized and professional, but I also felt she was really invested in us and helping make our day perfect! She was wonderful to work with, and anyone would be very lucky to have their wedding in her capable hands!!

Colleen DeGreeve

Alexandra was our Day of Coordination Wedding Planner for my daughter's wedding. Her professionalism, preparedness, calm demeanour and creativity made the day go extremely well. I would highly recommend her to Brides and Grooms who want a stress free day! Thanks again Alexandra

Martina Petrovic

Words cannot express our gratitude for Alexandra being a part of our wedding planning process. She introduced us to absolutely fantastic vendors, organized visits, attended every vendor meeting, and above all ran everything perfectly the day of. Our wedding turned into something straight out of a magazine – it was absolutely STUNNING! The church and reception looked incredible and everything felt like it ran so smooth – no detail was left to chance. Alexandra is a top-notch planner and we felt incredibly grateful to have had her support. She is extremely organized, flexible, creative, and a wonderful person. We cannot recommend Boutiq Weddings and Events enough!

We enlisted Alexandra to assist in the set up and take down on the day of. It was such a huge relief knowing our friends and family could enjoy the day. She went above and beyond just assisting with set up: she regularly checked in to make sure any questions we had were addressed, she sat down with us to prepare a schedule for the day and provided it to all of our family, she coordinated the rehearsal, and she made sure that we weren't forgetting anything in the weeks leading up. It was a pleasure to work with Alexandra and her assistant, and would highly recommend her to my friends and family.

Ash DePass

Alexandra was INCREDIBLE! I cannot recommend her enough!!! She worked with us from day one, always check in with us and and double checked everything. Everyone always says never expect your wedding day to be perfect, but it ACTUALLY was and I attribute that to Alexandra. She worked her tail off, she was the one who dealt with any issues that came up (which I didn't need to worry about) and made sure absolutely everything was flawless!!! I am so grateful and cannot say enough good things!

Alexandra was wonderful when we approached Boutiq weddings about a last minute need to change to our wedding venue. She was extremely helpful, going above and beyond to find new locations. Thanks Alexandra!
