Off the Beaten Path Wedding

LOOK NO FURTHER! The BEST wedding planner/day-of coordinator & photographer duo are right here. Alicia and Neal are the most amazing wedding/elopement planners and photographers you will EVER find. Our elopement turned into a small wedding after more family members agreed to come than we expected, and Alicia put together all of the pieces with ease (venue, vows, officiant, music, food, flowers, cake, decor of multiple venues, invitations, literally clearing the venue of grizzly bears, signage, photos.. I can't even list everything. the list of what she did to arrange our "short/small ceremony" goes on and on. It turns out you CAN have bougie, sky-high expectations on short notice with a small budget -- because Alicia will make it happen for you. She was extremely respectful of our budget and kept finding creative ways to help us save money. She was 100% reliable and dependable, and went the extra mile in every way. I didn't know what I didn't know, and Alicia handled it all. She communicated often and clearly, created spreadsheets and documents, and called/emailed frequently. I had not met Alicia until the day of the wedding, but I felt like I knew her because we talked so often and she's so open and personable. The day of, I almost spent more face-to-face time with Neal because he was photographing us for the entire day so he was always nearby (and Alicia was off making everything perfect). He has a very calming presence which I needed more than I realized. You can tell quickly that he is a HIGH quality photographer who knows what moments to capture. He made so many great memories for us just because he is a pro and knows how to do it and in a flattering light. Our photos are INCREDIBLE and they make me cry every time I see them. We have such wonderful memories of that day thanks to Neal's talent and the care he put into our special day. My (now) husband and I joke (but.. not really joking!) about getting married again every year because it was the best day of our lives. It would have never been so perfect without Neal and Alicia. I just don't know what to say other than I have super high expectations of basically everything, and I would not hesitate to not only recommend them to my best friend or family member, but also use them again in the future. THANK YOU, Alicia & Neal!! We'll be calling you soon for our vow renewal. More...

Wow, I don’t even know where to start. Although we had friends who we always knew we’d be using for our wedding day photographers and didn’t get the pleasure of meeting Neil, Alicia was incredible.

My husband and I traveled from New York to get married in GNP. We originally planned a tiny elopement but as the day got closer, more and more friends and family joined in. Alicia never missed a beat. From sending me 50 lodging options the first day we spoke to seeking out and coordinating plans for our large group to keeping the ball rolling on every single detail & coming up with things I never would have thought of to make our day (and surround days) absolutely perfect. Alicia is sweet, loving, assertive, talented beyond her years and an absolute boss. I can’t imagine our trip without her. She fit in seamlessly with our group, like we had all known her forever & she even met us in the park to scope everything out and took a trip up going to the sun road with us. She also 100% understood my vision (& made up for my lack of) and constantly sent me amazing ideas and was never once pushy or bothered when I would change my mind 15 times. I could go on and on but I’m running out of characters :p
My (and every wedding guests) only complaint is that she has yet to come visit us in New York so we can all hang out more!! More...

I highly, highly recommend Off The Beaten Path to anyone who is considering a day of coordinator or wedding planner. Alicia and Neal went above and beyond with our whole planning process, and we only had them as our day of coordinator! Alicia is one of the most organized people I know, my thoughts sometimes can be jumbled and can come across a bit confusing, but Alicia always knew exactly what I was meaning, and had great suggestions along the way to bring special touches into our wedding. Our day was absolutely perfect, we literally scored the jackpot finding these two. It was hard convincing my now husband, that we needed a day of coordinator, as he felt we could just do it on our own, but by the time the wedding was over, he couldn’t stop thanking me for NOT listening to him! They made our day, and the days leading up to it, so stress free. To show how amazing Alicia is, one of the times we met up with her we had met her partner, Neal, for the first time, Alicia accurately filled him in on months of details her and I had spoken of leading up to the wedding, without having single note for reference or a reminder in front of her! Im extremely impressed with how organized she is, especially because I know they had to of been busy with other weddings (and now planning their own!) and they made us feel like we were the only wedding on their list. They are worth every penny if not more! Off The Beaten Path is incredible!! More...

This recommendation is a tad late but I would like to write one from our wedding back in October. We had the wedding of our dreams and it wouldn’t have happened had it not been for Neal and Alicia! We had Alicia do our day coordinating. I had a vision that wasn’t totally clear for even me but she designed and decorated everything exactly how I envisioned my day to be with giving her very little details. She went above and beyond what we expected. If something went wrong that day we literally didn’t know about it and still don’t know about it to this day. She took care of everything that day. The day was completely stress free for everyone there! Neal did our photography. Our pictures are to die for! Our wedding party still talks about how awesome he was. He was so fun and made the experience one we will never forget. It’s not everyday you pay for something and you get the best customer experience along with it. Everyone from the wedding talked about how amazing they were. So thank you Neal and Alicia for making a huge impact on that day. It’s memories you helped make and they will never be forgotten. Thank you for introducing yourselves to almost everyone at the wedding. It’s pretty cool when my out of state family comes to you the next day saying how awesome of people you are and knowing you by name. You impacted everyone there. We love you guys! More...
