Best decision for our wedding day!

Kristi is THE BEST! Thank you to Kristi and the team for helping our wedding day go so smoothly. Kristi was always a phone call away when I needed her in the planning process. She made us feel comfortable during the process and even more so on our wedding day. I am so glad we chose her team to help us with our Chapel/WaterColor wedding. From helping secure the best vendors in the area to the little details like sending us off on our wedding night with all the snacks/meals, hiring this team is the best decision you'll make for your 30A wedding!

Love her heart

Kristi and I bonded on the phone. She bought in to our wedding,....but more so she LISTENED to our thoughts and budget. I loved her heart for our dreams. On a very thunderstorm filled Wedding morning that wasn’t hopeful.....she worked diligently to change venues day of the wedding!!! She heard our thoughts from the very beginning. I felt very blessed to have known her as our planner....but also as a friend. The entire wedding was more than we could’ve ever dreamed for. The joy on our daughter’s face during the evening was so gratifying. Because of Kristi....it all happened. I would recommended her with with 50 stars if you offered!
