Alinato Events

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Alyssa was by far the best decision we made for our wedding. She was so great to work with through the whole process and made the planning fun and stress free. On the day itself, everything ran seamlessly and looked so stunning. We are so grateful for her and would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat.

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa and her team are seriously one of the most fun and reliable planners I’ve worked with. They are always thinking ahead, keeping the day flowing, and somehow making even the busiest moments feel easy. I really appreciate how much Alyssa looks out for her couples—and the fact that she trusts us enough to refer to so many of them says a lot about her professionalism. She’s also just a genuinely awesome person to be around on a wedding day—calm, approachable, and full of good energy. Any couple would be lucky to have her on their team.

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa was so wonderful to work with! She understood my vision from the very beginning and did everything she could to make it happen. From venues, to florals, to bands, to decor, she didn’t skimp out on any of it or tried to make it her own. She listened to what our dreams were and made them happen. All so seamlessly too. She’s a wonderful person to work with from the inside out. I wouldn’t have had the magical wedding day we had without her!

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa was able to give me my first perfect day. She has an amazing selection of vendors, deep industry knowledge and most importantly passion. There is so much going on when it comes to planning a wedding that you almost don’t know how everything is going to come together and what to expect. Alyssa delivered more than I could have hoped for. All I can say is trust the process and trust Alyssa! The end result will speak for itself!

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa truly made our wedding a dream come true. She listened to our vision and brought it to life with details we never could have imagined ourselves. Her creativity and eye for design are unmatched. She came up with the most beautiful, caterpillar-like design for the tables and added thoughtful touches that made our celebration feel completely personal and one of a kind. She sourced incredible vendors and after we picked which ones we wanted to use, she did an amazing job negotiating with them over the phone and zoom. She made our dream of having a New Orleans style second line come to life, complete with the Triad Brass Band leading us from our ceremony under the willow tree at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden to our cocktail reception as the sun was setting. It was pure magic and truly one of the highlights of our lives. As we planned our wedding in only nine months, Alyssa was endlessly patient, organized, and responsive. She kept us on track with timelines, anticipated every need, and made us feel special every step of the way. She focused on getting everything done during the week so we could still enjoy our weekends. Of course there are always a few day of emergencies at weddings, but Alyssa handled everything seamlessly behind the scenes so we didn’t even notice, allowing us to be fully present and soak in every moment. Our guests are still raving that it was the most beautiful wedding they’ve ever attended, and we owe that entirely to Alyssa and her amazing team. We will genuinely miss working with her. ❤️

Experiencia fantástica: We had our wedding at 620 Loft & Garden in NYC, and Alyssa and her team were absolutely essential in making it everything we hoped for. From the early planning stages, helping us source the best vendors, refine our vision, and create a seamless timeline, to the wedding day itself, she managed every detail with precision and professionalism. Alyssa brings an intensity and focus that is exactly what you need on such an important day. Coordinating a wedding in the middle of Midtown Manhattan is no small feat, especially during UN week, yet everything ran flawlessly. If there were any hiccups, we never knew about them, her team had everything under control. Because of Alyssa, we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment of our celebration. We cannot recommend Alinato Events highly enough, they turned a potentially stressful process into the most beautiful, effortless, and unforgettable experience of our lives.

Experiencia fantástica: Have worked with Alyssa and Alinato for over 10 years on multiple events and weddings. 5 Stars all around. The entire team leaves no stone unturned. Always a pleasure to know I will be in trusted hands the entire process when working with Alinato.

Experiencia fantástica: I can’t say enough great things about Alyssa Pettinato and her incredible team at Alianato! They helped me plan my 40th Birthday Extravaganza, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From the very beginning, Alyssa was attentive, organized, and truly committed to bringing my vision to life. She found the perfect venue, negotiated great rates, and made amazing vendor recommendations that took the entire experience to the next level. My party had a lot of moving parts, but it was executed flawlessly. The entire day and evening were elegant, beautiful, and most importantly stress-free. I was able to enjoy every moment knowing Alyssa and her team had everything under control. I’m already looking forward to working with her again for my next milestone occasion. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: We could not recommend Alyssa and her team more for their full-service wedding planning! Not only were they so organized and made the entire experience stress free, their design and vision for the wedding exceeded all expectations!! They took our inspiration photos and added their own creative touches to make it a truly unique wedding. All of the vendors sourced by Alyssa and Emma were 20/10! We could not get enough compliments from guests on how the whole wedding flowed and how great our team was. We are going to miss working with Alyssa and Emma.

Experiencia fantástica: Our wedding was better than I had hoped for - everything was beautiful, the food was great, and the DJ had everyone dancing all night. Alyssa and Emma brought everything to life, could not have done it without them!

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Alyssa and the Alinato Events team was an absolute pleasure. At Iona Sprinter, we had the honor of providing luxury transportation for one of their signature events — and everything went off perfectly. Their precision, professionalism, and eye for detail made the experience seamless from start to finish. We’re excited for many more successful collaborations ahead!

Experiencia fantástica: I always love working with Alyssa and her team! Every wedding we’ve done together has been not only stunningly beautiful, but also incredibly well-organized. Their events are seamless, stylish, and stress-free for everyone involved because they’re so on top of every detail. They create magic every time and are such wonderful people!

Experiencia negativa: I didn't like the service I attended as a guest a mess wait, I hope to have a better time from the beginning

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Alyssa and her incredible team at Alinato Events was an absolute dream! I had the honor of collaborating with them on Rachael and Ben’s wedding at Chelsea Square in New York City this November, and it was nothing short of magical. From start to finish, Alyssa demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, creativity, and care, making this wedding one to remember for everyone involved. The design of the wedding was breathtaking and so meticulously thought out—it truly stopped guests in their tracks. The cathedral ceremony featured stunning fall florals that were organic, moody, and romantic, perfectly complementing the season and the grandeur of the space. The reception, held at the historic Refectory, was equally mesmerizing. With its soaring ceilings and timeless charm, the venue provided the perfect backdrop for Alinato's masterful design. Long tablescapes adorned with glowing candlelight, vibrant pops of color, and elegant scrolls at each setting created an atmosphere that was warm, inviting, and visually stunning. Every detail contributed to an unforgettable experience for the couple and their guests. Alyssa’s communication throughout the planning process was seamless—she was always prompt, clear, and incredibly easy to collaborate with. Her ability to manage every aspect of the day so flawlessly made my role as the photographer so much easier, allowing me to focus on capturing the beauty and emotion of the celebration. Her attention to detail, expertise, and genuine care for her clients shone through in every interaction. I cannot recommend Alyssa and her team highly enough. Their dedication to creating unforgettable, meaningful events is unmatched, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work alongside them. If you are looking for a planner who will pour her heart into your special day and ensure every detail is perfect, Alinato Events is the one!

Experiencia fantástica: I worked with Alyssa and her team at Alinato and I am so happy we did!! She knows her craft- truly any time I was unsure or thought maybe the moodboard was scary- I could not have been more wrong in a great way. The process was so fun and it really allowed me to sit back and just trust in the professionals which is what I HIGHLY recommend in wedding planning. Also watching her and Emma run around the day of the wedding for hours on end making sure every detail was perfect- truly devoted and I appreciated having them in my corner! Thanks to the team and highly recommend to all couples- just do it!

Experiencia fantástica: Absolutely loved using Alinato events for our wedding planning. They kept us really organized and took a lot of the stress away for every single item honestly. All of the vendors were spectacular and our wedding design was something I didn’t even know we could’ve afforded let alone do. I’ve never been more happy with a service. She truly didn’t let us miss a beat. Staying on top of us even when we were being delinquent with our emails (lol). Alyssa and her team definitely know what they’re doing and I highly recommend them to any couples!

Experiencia fantástica: If I could give more stars, I would. I was not a bride that knew what I wanted and Alyssa and Emma really helped me create the wedding of my dreams. Wedding planning is stressful and overwhelming and they really supported us every step of the way. From building an all-star vendor team, to ensuring every detail was perfect day of, I could not recommend this team more. From the very beginning, Alyssa guided us in developing a plan that fit within our budget then worked directly with vendors to find creative ways to bring our vision to life without exceeding our budget. She helped us prioritize the budget and made recommendations on where we could save costs. She was spot on and our wedding was incredible, filled with so many personal details. Our wedding felt like us from the Wedding Mass to the after party. If we didn’t hire Alinato, the details that made our wedding, wouldn’t have happened. Our guests are still talking about our wedding and it’s not because they’re being polite, it’s because of the guidance of Alinato. If you’re an anti-bride, a couple that’s unsure where to start, or have your dream day vision board complete, hire this team. Most people say their wedding was the best day of their life. I never believed I would feel that way, but I can confidently say it was and then some

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa and her team were nothing short of phenomenal! From the very first consultation, I knew I was in great hands. Alyssa's creativity, professionalism, and commitment to bringing my vision to life were evident in every detail. She listened carefully to my ideas and made thoughtful suggestions, transforming them into something even more beautiful than I could have imagined. Throughout the planning process, she was always available, quick to respond, and handled any challenges with grace and ease. Thanks to Alyssa, my wedding day was truly magical, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an expert who will go above and beyond to make their event unforgettable!

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa and her team are incredibly talented and truly understand how to help couples create the wedding of their dreams. She helped my now-husband and me embrace our unique interests, encouraging us to find creative ways to incorporate aspects of ourselves into our wedding. I truly appreciated her honesty and willingness to step in whenever we needed her insight on certain decisions. She offered clear guidance and helped us make choices that best reflected our vision. Her ability to step in and provide thoughtful direction made the planning process so much smoother. Even when we faced issues with vendors, she always knew exactly what to do and handled the situation assertively and effectively. I also want to highlight how wonderful her assistant, Aubrey, was throughout our wedding day. She was such a huge support and regularly checked in with us, helping us feel so at ease. A big thank you to Alyssa and her team for making our day unforgettable!!

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa is one of the best planners you could ever hope for. She was kind and gracious to us at every step of the process, and we trusted her and her team 100%, which worked to perfection. Alyssa made sure that we were taken care of, our vision was represented, and had some great ideas of her own, so highly recommend listening to her as well. New York City party planning is nothing to fool around with, and having Alyssa and her team by our side was the best choice we made in the wedding process.

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa and her team are without a doubt the best in the GAME! From our introductory call to when we left our wedding at the end of the night Alyssa was there with me every step of the way this past year and a half. She's a rockstar, and she executed my alternative, moody, non-traditional yet classy and upscale NYC wedding perfectly to a T. She was more than just a planner, she became a friend and confidant, and I'm going to really miss her trying to keep me on track now. Alyssa saved us so much money, time, and stress by negotiating and handling so much for our wedding it allowed us to truly relax and enjoy the day. She kept me calm and on schedule day of and made sure the wedding went off without a hitch. She is incredible and I highly highly recommend her to any couple in need of a planner.

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa, Aubrey, Emma and team created our dream wedding and we had the absolute best and most beautiful day. She has a great eye for design and led us through the stressful process with ease. Our wedding came out better than we could have ever imagined!

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Alyssa, Aubrey, and the entire Alinato team was a dream. They are exactly what you want and need in a planner. Alyssa brings a vast vendor network, deep design expertise, and a warm candor that is so delightful to work with. She kept us on track and was always willing to go the extra mile (e.g., she hopped on FaceTime with us on a Friday at five multiple times). Particularly in New York City, where there are a million vendors to work with, having the peace of mind that Alyssa had done the diligence and built relationships with the best of the best was invaluable. You want to ride in a vintage cab? She has the best guy for it. You want your dog at the ceremony? She knows the most trustworthy company. You want your photographer at your rehearsal dinner? Sure, no problem, she will text them and make it happen. She and Aubrey also made the wedding weekend SO smooth. We had to change our rehearsal dinner location last minute due to extenuating circumstances, and they both handled it was such grace and efficiency. It was supposed to thunderstorm up until a few hours before the ceremony, and they were calm and reassuring. Every part of the wedding day ran like clockwork from our perspective (I am sure things went awry, but we didn’t notice because Alinato so deftly handles everything!), and I truly cannot imagine not having them there. After 18 months of planning Alyssa and the Alinato team feel more like trusted friends than anything, and we’re so, SO glad we had the opportunity to work with them.

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Alinato Events to help plan and coordinate our wedding was one of the best decisions my fiancé and now wife made. Alyssa and her team were organized, professional, and resourceful in helping to find and work with our venue, vendors, and all aspects leading up to and on our big day! As working professionals, my wife and I had to trust and rely on Alinato Events to coordinate and handle the day-to-day intricacies of planning everything including a master timeline and recommending the right people to make our day special which they did with flying colors including working within and keeping us on budget. Honestly, if we could give more stars we would. Alinato events has more than earned their five star reputation and my now wife and I would highly recommend to future couples in helping to make your special day memorable as well.

Experiencia fantástica: Working with Alyssa and her team was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. My wife and I were both very busy with work during the planning phase of the wedding but Alyssa was on top of it to make sure everything was progressing smoothly. She was extremely easy to work with. We were relatively hands off for most of it and left it up to her and her vendors to make most of the decisions and the wedding turned out more perfect than we could’ve imagined. I would highly recommend Alinato events to anyone who wants to plan the perfect wedding :)

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa and her team at Alinato Events are AMAZING at what they do. You’re in good hands when you’re working with Alyssa. We recently worked with Alinato events as wedding photographers at Megan & Kenneth, and found their communication and professionalism truly was next-level service for our happy couple. With the team's experience in events planning, wedding planning with Alinato Events makes the planning process feel easy. We hope to work with them for another wedding soon!

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa is SO talented with event planning and wedding planning and is the perfect choice to help coordinate your next event!!! With such great attention to detail, focus and knowledge In the industry, you will not find a better event planner in New York! TRUST ME!

Experiencia fantástica: Alyssa and her team worked it out- especially given Covid. This year was a total nightmare for my fiance and I and we were starting to think that we would just have to elope. Not only did Alyssa help us get back FULL refunds from all our vendors- she helped us through the nightmare of planning an intimate gathering and following all the NY laws about it. Having an intimate wedding was actually so special and nice and she helped us to get everything we wanted done. We are so grateful to her and her team for everything!!

Experiencia fantástica: The best Wedding planners in NYC! Thank you so much for helping us during our wedding!
