We could write about how awesome we are, but why not let you hear from our past clients?
"Alison, of A Hot Pink Petticoat, is a woman who knows what she is doing. She is detail-oriented, organized, creative and ready to take charge of a situation when necessary. She figures out and confirms what her clients need and want and she delivers. It is as simple as that. She is an excellent resource for anyone planning an important event. Let me tell you about what she did for me.
I recently got married in September of 2008. I consider myself to be a fairly organized person, but I do have a tendency towards procrastination. Alison kept my husband and I on track in terms of the little details that often fall on a bride and grooms lap weeks before the big day. She made sure that we were thinking about every detail so that we would not have little, annoying things pop up on our wedding day. And guess what? The day went by so smooth! We had a fabulous wedding and really appreciated the assistance Alison provided to us. She is extremely professional and knows what to do and who to talk to. No job is below her, she is there to help out in any way she can. She was even an honourary Bridesmaid with all of the little things she did for me!
Alison is passionate about her work and passionate about making peoples dreams come true. Hire her! You won't regret it!
Thank you, Alison!" Jane, Toronto
"Alison was by far one of our best vendors at our October 4, 2008 wedding. I wasn't even sure I needed a day-of-coordinator, and I am SO glad that she came into my life!
Originally what I was looking for in a coordinator was peace of mind. Knowing that on the day of the wedding, there was someone there to take care of any disasters if they popped up without me having to deal with it. Having Alison on my side meant I got much more than that! During the planning process, she was always available for any question I had, no matter how seemingly insignficant they were at the time. When I started feeling stressed, it was great knowing that all I had to do was have a chat with her and I'd feel better and under control!
When the wedding day arrived, she was an absolute lifesaver. She was the extra pair of hands I needed to get the flowers delivered to the church. She was the point of contact at the church before I arrived for any family members who had questions. She organized procession so that I didn't have to stress about who walked when. During the ceremony, I actually had a moment where I felt so calm knowing that Alison was already over at the reception location making sure everything was in order. It was a wondeful feeling!!
However it was at the reception that I realized how truly valueable she was. When my husband and I arrived after photographs, she had EVERYTHING taken care of so that we were able to take 10 minutes alone before the big party began. She kept on top of the schedule so that I never worried about it once. My family loved her and said that they were grateful that she was there as she took care of any little issue or request they had, even when it was running to the drug store for some pain medication!
I actually used to work as an event coordinator, so that is why I didn't think I needed one for the day of the wedding. Having gone through this experience now, I would absolutely recommend it - not just having a day-of coordinator, but having Alison as that person! A wedding coordinator is not just someone who keeps a list of phone numbers and a timeline - it is so much more than that and it requires a special person who is not only organized and diligent, but who is creative, loyal, caring and supportive.
My husband and I were both so elated with the work that Alison did and both agree that she was what made our wedding day so wonderful for us - we were able to relax and enjoy it knowing that everything was in her capable hands." Janice, Toronto

Alison made me feel comfortable and confident with her services. She was always organized, prompt and professional. What I really loved about her is her bubbly, positive attitude and her creative eye. She is full of cute and unique ideas to make your wedding stand out and NOT be a "cookie-cutter" wedding. On the day and night of, she was on duty from start to finish. She made sure that everything ran smoothly so that me and my family could relax and enjoy the night. If there were any issues, I didn't know about them because Alison dealt with them always with a smile on her face! I would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Alison to anyone who is considering needing anywhere from a little to a lot of help with their planning. Oh, and I must add that she is the most resourceful, internet savvy girl I know!!!" Karina, Toronto
