Planning creative, authentic, and meaningful weddings for people in love

"Choosing to hire Shannon was undoubtedly the best decision we made during our wedding planning process."

Let's create your magical and memorable wedding

Located in the heart of Western Massachusetts

Annie + Albert

Shannon has an incredible knowledge base and really understands whatever your vision is, even if you are terrible at articulating it like me. She has an amazing eye for design, which was incredibly helpful when I was concerned my vision might not come together. Not only did she help me get the most incredible group of vendors together, but she made sure it all came together seamlessly. I was grateful for her in the months leading up to the wedding, knowing everything would be ready and stunning when we arrived was priceless.

Rayne + Colin

Shannon was warm, supportive, and thoughtful from the very beginning, and this never wavered over the duration of the time we worked with her. She considered every detail and helped them fit exactly as we envisioned. She ensured everything went so smoothly on our wedding day, and if there were any hiccups behind the scenes, we had no idea! Her professionalism and extensive knowledge of the wedding industry is balanced by her glowing personality, helping you to quickly feel like friends!

Hannah + Axel

This event, in the way we envisioned it, simply could not have happened without Shannon. Thanks to her, my husband and I were completely present at our wedding. I did not think about a single detail ONCE, because I trusted her completely to ensure it would happen. And it did. She is incredibly detail oriented and was the best cheerleader/coach/confidante a couple could ask for. She was worth every penny and I wish I had more reasons to work with her in the future. I am a big, big fan and think you'll love her too.

"I would get married again just to work with her another time"

Chelsea + Zoe

Seriously, look no further. We brought Shannon on thinking it would be nice to have someone dedicated to navigating venue delivery on the day of our wedding, we did not realize that Shannon would soon become a cherished member of our family. he was infinitely patient and sweet with us, and when she finally left the venue the night of our wedding, I was more sad to see her leave than I was many of my beloved family and friends. Shannon is extremely LGBTQIA/NBPOC friendly and most importantly patient and kind.

"I'm not really sure how people get married without shannon"

Becca + Daniel

Shannon was essential to making our wedding as special as it turned out and we truly enjoyed working with her every step of the way. Our wedding was not the most straightforward affair to plan, but throughout the planning process Shannon was on top of every small detail. She always looked for ways to make things easier for us and helped keep us on track and focused. Shannon was, without a doubt, our best friend through the planning of our wedding and we couldn't recommend her more strongly.

"It's hard to imagine what our wedding would have been like without shannon"

Sheffield, MA

Molly + David

Her attention to both emotional and practical details, and her excitement as we talked through our vision for the day all convinced us that she'd be a great manager and day-of coordinator. Over the next six months, Shannon was a true partner and go-to resource for all of our questions, worries and ideas about the wedding. At every moment during our day, we saw Shannon working joyfully and tirelessly alongside the rest of our vendor team to give us and our guest the best possible experience.

"Hiring Shannon as our event manager was the best decision we made"

Haydenville, MA

Emmy + Josh

From sourcing our table numbers to helping find the perfect floral disco installation above our dance floor - she was incredible! I cannot say enough good things about working with Shannon - she was supportive, kind, and listened to everything I mentioned on our many planning calls. Most importantly, she made us feel calm and confident that everything for our wedding would come together beautifully. To future brides: run don’t walk, Aligned Events is incredible!!
