We Made It to TV (And Only One of Us Forgot Their Lines!)
We're still a little starstruck that 12 News invited us to share our story on Arizona Midday! Ben and Aly had a blast talking with the team about what makes Modern Moments different – spoiler alert: it involves a lot of transparency, zero hidden fees, and Ben's tendency to say "200 plus" while Aly gives him the look.
Watch the Full Segment
Special TV Offer: Mention you saw us on Arizona Midday when you book, and we'll take $350 off your event. Because apparently we're fancy enough for television now, but we're still the same family who promises not to photobomb your ceremony photos!
What We Talked About (The Cliff Notes Version)
The Family Behind the Venue
Ben shared the slightly crazy truth: nine kids (six daughters, three boys) basically meant God was like, "Hey, you're going to need a wedding venue." Fair point, Universe. Modern Moments is family-owned, family-run, and definitely family-influenced – Aly keeps the whole operation running smoothly while Ben tries not to give her a headache by overselling our capacity on live TV.
Who Chooses Modern Moments?
Aly calls them "the thoughtful planners" – you know who you are. The Pinterest bride with all the mood boards, the color-coordinated everything, the one who's been planning since approximately age seven. This is your open canvas, and we're here to help you bring that vision to life (hand gestures included).
True Customization (Not Just the Buzzword Kind)
We mean it when we say custom. Want a food truck in our designated food vendor driveway? Let's do it. Have a specific caterer who makes that one dish you dream about? Bring them. Vision something totally unique? Challenge accepted. We're not the cookie-cutter vibe – we're the "bring your dream and let's make it happen" vibe.
The No-Junk-Fee Promise
We live in an Amazon world – you want to see the price and click "buy now" without surprise fees popping up at checkout. That's our model. The price you see during your tour is the price you pay. No hidden fees, no last-minute surprises, no fine print that requires a law degree to decode.
What's Included?
Full day-of coordination, tables, chairs, setup, cleanup, and Ben promising to keep his clipboard visible throughout your event (still working on that one). You focus on getting married – we'll handle literally everything else.
Book Your Tour (Before 2026 Fills Up!)
Fair warning: we have very limited 2026 dates left. If you're thinking about next year, hop on this faster than Ben can say "200 plus" on live TV.

P.S. – Yes, Ben and Aly work together. No, they're not married to each other. We're married to our other spouses, thank you very much. Though after this TV appearance, we're basically famous, so... autographs available upon request. (Kidding. Mostly.)
