ABOUT
Let’s. Create. Your. Happiness.
Welcome! We're so happy you found us. The Aisle Agency started with a dream and an idea to make your wedding day "you". The unique "you" that came up with pink and navy blue as your colors, that wearing a cream wedding dress is exactly right, that having a man on the bride's side (a bridesman!) and a girl on the groom's side (a groomswoman?!) is how you roll, and that having a "big party" with all your friends and family is all you want.
Let The Aisle Agency worry about the little details, and the big ones too! We want you to be insanely happy on your wedding day. You only need to worry about walking down that aisle and marrying the person of your dreams. We will work with you every step of the way to make sure that happens. Whether you need a little bit or a lot of help, we're here for you.
Here at The Aisle Agency, you aren’t just a “client”, but a friend. Every single event that we do is special to you. No cookie cutter events here! Want to try something crazy, like baby goats at the reception? Let’s do it! You want to arrive at your wedding in a horse-drawn carriage? You got it! Let’s do the crazy.
We are part therapist, part decorator, part manager, part accountant. ALL HEART.
We can't wait to hear about what you are planning! Contact us at hello@theaisleagency.com

Hi, I’m Elise!
I’m the lead planner and owner of The Aisle Agency. While I grew up in Michigan, I was born on the West Coast, and moved around a lot (7 times!) before we settled in Michigan. It’s where I call home.
I started planning events in college, but my love stems from planning Nutcracker dinners with my mom when I was young. Putting up all the pretty decorations in the perfect way, laying out the food in the perfect fashion, but most of all, picking out that perfect party dress. And finally seeing it all come together.
When I graduated from college, I went the nonprofit route. But my heart was missing something, and I realized I love the logistics of it all.
And The Aisle Agency was born!
Now I get to use my years of learning to help you plan your perfect event. (Looking for corporate or nonprofit event planning? Check out our sister company, The Gala Co.)
I have over 15 years experience in event management (both nonprofit and academic), and wedding planning. Plus I really love all things weddings; well, really all the pretty things! (Have you seen my Pinterest board?)
A little bit more about me...
I love anything vintage or shabby chic. I have two furbabies, Sydney and Rafe. I’ll binge watch shows on Netflix or Amazon Prime. But lately it's been getting back to my love of reading! Thanks #booktok! I read 100 books in 2021, and my goal is 125 books for 2022.
Favorite Color: purple
Favorite Flower: Sterling roses
Favorite Candy: anything mint & chocolate!
Favorite quotes:
“Ruthlessly prepare for it, and flawlessly execute it” ~Joe LoCicero
“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.” ~Helen Keller
Favorite part of the wedding: Either sending the bride or the groom down the aisle to his bride/her groom and watching the look on his/her face. Or the moment the officiant says “I now present you as husband and wife.”
