Why Work With AKhappenings?

Yes, hiring a Wedding Planner is an added cost and we understand that for some, it might not seem essential, but give us a sec to explain. While newly engaged couples step into the wedding world often for the first time, we're here living and breathing weddings and elopements everyday. With almost a decade (8 years to be precise) of experience under our belts, we offer all of that knowledge to you when you choose to let us plan your wedding.

More on our Experience:

  • Masters of turning intricate visions into reality without breaking the budget (we're budget-savvy creatives).

  • We handpick established vendors who we trust with that can turn your wedding day visions into a reality, As they say, "teamwork makes the dream work."

  • Adaptability is our forte; we smoothly navigate changes and unexpected turns that arise in the wedding industry often without you even knowing about them!

Ultimately, the question is: What might be the price of forgoing a professional to plan your wedding? Spending errors? Compromising on your vision? Overwhelming confusion that tempts you to abandon your plans and opt for an impromptu elopement (don’t get me wrong, we love elopements, but not when it becomes your backup plan)? Relax, these concerns aren’t a thing when you choose to work with us. We ensure that your experience working with us is far better than you hoped

WEDDINGS WE’VE PLANNED

Love Letters From my couples

“It was the most magical day.”

Working with Jordan/Alaska Happenings was the best decision we could have made! Having Jordan on our side gave us a peace of mind that everything would come together for our wedding day. Leading up to the wedding, she helped us develop our to-do list and helped answer all the questions we had. Jordan also gave excellent recommendations and advice—from vendors to decorations to seating arrangements. She helped make the vision come to life—even better than I anticipated! It was the most magical day, and I don’t think it would have happened so perfectly without Jordan’s help! 

-Marah Lambert


“Recommend her and her team 110000%!”

Jordan and her team did an AMAZING job making our dream wedding come true! We had over 200 guests and she navigated it like a pro! My hubby and I recommend her and her team 110000%!

-Jana Weltzin


“Our wedding day ran smoothly because of her.”

“Jordan was a pleasure to work with and our wedding day ran smoothly because of her. We honestly did not know what to expect when hiring a coordinator but the second we sat down and talked with Jordan we quickly saw how valuable she was going to be for our day. We laid out the details of how we wanted our day to be andJordan put it all together making our ideas a reality. It was great waking up day-of knowing everything was going to be taken care of. As the bride and groom we knew we were going to be spending time getting pictures taken and visiting with our family and friends. It put us at ease knowing Jordan had an eye on the time and made sure we did everything we wanted to do. You never know what can happen on your wedding day. When my husband and I were at the top of Arctic Valley getting pictures taken it poured down at the chalet. All of our guests and vendors set up outside had to move inside and we thank Jordan for taking care of that. Thank you Jordan for being a part of our special day!”

-Sara Seeman


“Jordan was the missing piece that we needed”

Jordan was the missing piece that we needed for our wedding day. She was organized, flexible and thought of all the things, big or small, to ensure nothing was left unturned. Our wedding ran so smooth and stress free having her be our coordinator. If you need your sign to book Jordan, here it is! Run, don’t walk! We can’t thank Jordan enough for making our day so special. Thanks a million, Jordan!
