Hi, I'm Alana

WEDDING PLANNER Cincinnati & Dayton Ohio

My couples often describe me as calm, steady, and deeply invested in their experience. I approach every wedding with equal parts strategy and heart, ensuring nothing feels rushed, chaotic, or overlooked.

When I’m not planning weddings, you’ll likely find me enjoying time with my family, brainstorming new creative concepts, or savoring a quiet moment with iced coffee in hand.


Lead Planner of Love & Whimsy Events

We are boutique Cincinnati based wedding planning company built on the belief that beautiful celebrations start with genuine connection and clear organization.

After years in project management, customer service, and creative roles, I launched Love & Whimsy in 2021 to create a planning experience that blends structure with artistry. I’ve always been drawn to meaningful details; the kind that make guests feel considered and couples feel seen.
