Co-Founder and Event Designer
I’m completely captivated by the little details that come together to create unforgettable events.
With years of experience planning all types of celebrations, my passion lies in event styling and design.
I love getting to know my clients personally to craft an event that’s uniquely theirs. Whether it’s finding that one special piece to inspire the entire design or making sure every detail is perfect, I’m all about bringing the vision to life. I count it as an honor to be part of your “best day ever!”
When I am not working, you can find me enjoying time with my husband, my 2 daughters, and our Pompsky pup. I enjoy country concerts and spending time with our friends and family at our pool, and traveling!

Co-Founder and Event Producer
My love for weddings began 20 years ago working as a catering server at PNC Park. Now, as one-half of Wanderlust with my sister, I’m the ‘Type-A’ planner who ensures every detail of your wedding is perfectly organized. From finalizing timelines to coordinating with amazing vendors, I’m here to bring your ideas to life on paper, and behind the scenes, to ensure a smooth and stress-free event. I also thoroughly enjoy getting to know my couples and their families. It’s probably my favorite part of every wedding and event.
My goal always is to plan, execute, and handle any obstacle so you can fully enjoy every moment of your special day.
When I’m not planning, I’m a baseball-loving coach’s wife, a mom to two boys and two German Shepherds, and always ready for a family adventure. We have a goal to see every baseball stadium in the US!

Lead Planner and Coordinator
What started as a side-hustle quickly turned into my dream career–I found my home at Wanderlust, where I get to design weddings that truly reflect each couple—their story, their style, and the moments that matter most.
From the fast-paced energy to the tiniest of details, I thrive in chaos. These are my people, and I wouldn’t trade this whirlwind of love, logistics, and your first dance for anything!
When I’m not orchestrating the magic behind the scenes, you’ll find me soaking up time with my husband, our little boy, and our fur baby. There’s nothing better than making memories and enjoying the simple moments that make this life so special.

cheers!

“I would pick Wanderlust 100 times over. Ali and her team were instrumental in the vendor relationships, coordination, and execution from months prior to the very end. Without Ali and Wanderlust's resources, my husband and I would have been lost in the process.” - Ana S.
