Wow, what can I say about Kirsten? She is a lifesaver. I would recommend getting a wedding day coordinator to anyone that is trying to plan a wedding alone. She literally took all the stress away from me the day of the wedding and I know that it wouldn't have run as smoothly as it did without her. I know that her and my husband bumped heads a little, but that is because he likes to be in control too. I told him to just let her do what we hired her for and to relax, which is advise he evenutally took to heart. The day was perfect!!

Kirsten is wonderful! Best money we spent for our wedding. She is really easy to work with, very friendly, professional & knowledgeable. I would recommend her to anyone! We hired her for 'day of' coordination services and it was great. We enjoyed our day with our families and didn't have to stress about details.

We hired Kirsten as our day of coordinator and I don't regret it for a minute. She was prompt to return e-mails and calls, had fantastic ideas, and can handle all the little details of any wedding. Although we technically only booked for one day of coordination she met with me on several occasions and was a great sounding board for ideas.
I did absolutely nothing on the morning of my wedding. Well, scratch that, I drank my coffee, chatted with my mom and bridesmaids as we got ready for the day, and worked on a crossword puzzle. I did not lift a finger with decorations, vendor coordination, or errands. She took care of everything, including driving back to my fiance's apartment to pick up the wedding gift for me that he had forgotten to bring with him!
She takes a lot of pride in her work and it shows. She loves what she does and every bride gets the same treatment, regardless of whether you select full planning or day of coordination. I recommend her to every bride I know and have heard nothing but complete satisfaction from others. Book her!

I hired kirsten almost 8 months before my wedding after talking to her at a cafe near my house. She was singlehandedly the best decision I made during the entire planning process. She was undoubtedly, the glue that held my wedding together. During a ceremony crisis and a music emergency she thought on her feet and saved the day. She is a bargain for how much work and effort she does. She is kind and bubbly while still being professional. She is a great personal to work with and made my life so much easier during the wedding process.

Aside from my photographer, easily my favorite vendor! Early in the planning I wouldn’t even consider the idea of a DOC, but as the day got closer and I got more stressed…it became easier to see the value. After reading several great reviews on her, I met with her and instantly clicked with her. She is so sweet, bubbly, friendly and easy-going. One of the things she said to me in our first meet was something that stuck with me to the very end…that she’d never sent a bride down the aisle late. This was a BIG deal to me. Our ceremony started at 2pm, but we only had that room until 3pm. So, the ceremony HAD to start on time, get done on time and everything needed to be cleared out of there on time. All of that went perfectly. She was such a huge help to Jenny, who was doing all the decorations for the ceremony, reception and doing my bouquets…and that’s not even her day job! Kirsten helped her set up the reception room the night before. She helped offered some help to my Officiant during the rehearsal. She was a HUGE asset on the day itself. She kept constant tabs on all set up, making sure things were where they were supposed to be. She was always checking in with me, making sure that I was going well. She even went to pick up the Subway Party Subs that I’d ordered to feed everybody while getting ready. She kept me calm because every time I asked her about something, she was already on top of it or it was already done.
After the ceremony, she was a HUGE help. We had planned to head to a nearby park with our photographer, but she did not have any room in her van. So Kirsten grabbed the keys to my car and escorted Russ and I to the park. She was such a huge help to poor DH as well, because his rental shoes had him slipping all over the ice/snow. She helped us stay on task for the rest of the night…when to cut cake, when to start toasts, when to do first dance. Otherwise I would have just stood around and chatted with people all night. At the end of the night after we’d had our last dance, she told Russ to grab me and head up to our room. When we arrived, we found the front room of the suite lit with candles with the fireplace going. When we walked into the bedroom area, there were rose petals in the shape of a heart on the bed and leading across the floor to the Jacuzzi which she had run for us. She’d set up my iPod stereo to play soft music and had run and gotten us a card, treats and bottles of water. All were things that we needed so badly at the end of a wonderful but long day.
Now that I’ve gone on and on about her, I think you should be able to guess that I would HIGHLY recommend Kirsten!! Russ, my mom, all my bridesmaids and many guests all thought that she was fantastic. Russ and I at the end of the day decided she was definitely money well spent!!!

I worked with Kirsten of Fab.you.lous Event Design. She was truly a god-send in my planning! I hired her for 'Day of Coordination', she was SO much more than that! She helped me whenever I emailed her with a question, called her, or needed a quick answer. She truly was there for us in every way possible, and supported whatever we needed of her. She put so many special touches on our day that we will always remember. You will not be dissapointed if you work with Fab.you.lous design!
