"Sarah was amazing! I was brand new to Anchorage and wanted to surprise my partner with a big party for his 80th birthday. I heard of Sarah through a high recommendation of a friend. So I met with Sarah and was immediately impressed.

There were to be 60 people and I wanted it to be a total surprise. Before the time of the celebration, we were out of town. Sarah completely took over and without a hitch organized the most incredible affair I have been to in my 70-odd years! Her attention to detail and suggestions were spot on. I never even met with the vendors. She took care of EVERY TINY detail.

I admit I did feel a bit like a princess. But that's Sarah for you. She makes it so easy to step back.

There was not one person who was not impressed! It was a total surprise and a fabulous event for the books! Hats off to Sarah Alborn. Don't hesitate to call her!”

"When I was searching for a wedding planner, I wanted someone who was genuine, professional, and honest—someone with that comforting Auntie/Mom energy you could instantly trust! Sarah was exactly that. She left no detail overlooked and was refreshingly honest and realistic throughout the planning process. As a bride, it was easy to feel overwhelmed by endless decisions and get distracted by all the exciting possibilities for the wedding, but Sarah always brought me back to reality and kept us within our budget. She truly made our day so much better—I can’t imagine it being as great without her. Thanks to Sarah, my family and friends could relax and enjoy the day. By the end, I didn’t just have a fantastic wedding planner—I gained a friend, which is exactly what I was hoping for and speaks to the person she is!"

"Sarah Alborn is an excellent wedding planner/coordinator. She went beyond what was discussed and attended to every detail. Sarah is a true professional, organized and well spoken. Everyone at the venue and all our vendors went out of their way to comment on Sarah's proficiency. Bravo Sarah! We couldn't have done it without you."

-Karen and Stephen A.

"I have to give a well deserved shout out to Sarah! Sarah completely went out of her way to help with our wedding very last minute this past September and I can honestly say that without her, our wedding would have been chaos. I am super picky and a perfectionist and I thought that I had everything figured out but she tied everything together better than I could imagine. From vendor referrals, making the itinerary for our day, contacting all of the vendors for us to finalize everything to running the show on the wedding day, she made it all so enjoyable and stress free. She was so fun, very professional and easy going throughout the whole process. If you're on the fence about a wedding planner, I highly recmmend talking to Sarah, you won't regret it!"

"We hired Sarah for our dream Alaskan wedding and she brought our entire dreams to life. Coming from out of state and never actually visiting Alaska before we didn’t know what to expect but Sarah put our minds at ease and really made the day and the entire planning process so seamless. Without her I don’t know how I would have managed. I’m so grateful she was there every step of the way whether it was a phone call, text, or email; she handled everything perfectly for us. I would 100% hire her again and recommend her for any event or wedding in the future."

-Erin G.

"Sarah’s communication, organization, collaboration with vendors, and eye go unmatched. She has an ornate ability to make your visions come to reality.  Our 200 plus guest wedding was a smooth operation, as well as an epic dance party and that’s a credit to her."

-Ashley H.

If I could give Sarah and Alborn Events 10 stars, I absolutely would! From start to finish, Sarah was everything I needed—and more—to ensure that I was able to relax and truly enjoy one of the most important days of my life.

She came in a day early, seamlessly helping set up both the ceremony and reception spaces with incredible grace, attention to detail, and flawless organization. Her calm presence and professionalism immediately put me at ease. Every detail we had discussed in our planning meetings was executed perfectly, and she handled every aspect with confidence and care.

What I appreciated most was how she lifted the stress off my shoulders. I had been so worried I’d spend my wedding day running around, managing logistics—but with Sarah in charge, I didn’t have to think twice. She kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes, allowing me to be fully present in every moment.

Sarah doesn’t just coordinate weddings—she creates peace of mind, beautiful spaces, and an atmosphere where joy and celebration can truly shine. If you are looking for a wedding coordinator who is kind, organized, calm under pressure, and absolutely committed to making your vision come to life, Sarah is the one. I can’t recommend her enough!

-Angie T.

I cannot recommend Sarah enough especially if you’re having a remote wedding! Her attention to detail, outside the box thinking and genuine thoughtfulness's made this the easiest and most low stress experience. From the beginning she gives your her full attention in order to make sure every detail is what you have dreamed of! And on your special day, she makes sure everything is set up, directed and goes as smoothly as possible! She truly fixes any problems before you ever know they exist(or maybe you never know). If you are looking for a wedding planner that is easy to work with and is going to be actively involved, well organized and has your best interest at heart, I highly suggest you choose Sarah!
