We hired Katie for day of coordination, and couldn't have been happier with doing so. I knew all of the vendors I wants to work with prior to working with Katie, so full wedding planning wasn't something we needed in our situation. But day of coordination? Absolutely! There isn't a bride out there that doesn't need her services!
The expertise and piece of mind Katie brings to the table are second to none. She's there for you along the way for advice and recommendations. There are so many choices and decisions to make for your big day, and having a wedding professional on you side helping you make the best decisions is the best. The week of the wedding , she's there for it all! From your final meeting at your venue, to the rehearsal, to the big day, Katie is there to make sure everything is goes perfect and everyone is at the right place at the right time. For the big day, one of her assistants will be with the guys, making sure they are on time, and all set. This alone is huge, especially with a big wedding party! I highly recommend Katie O Wedding & Events to everyone I know getting married. It's the most valuable vendor to book, as they will make sure your day is as perfect as you imagined. And in our case, better than we could have dreamed!

Katie O and her team are absolutely amazing! I never had to worry or stress on my wedding day because I had complete faith that everything would turn out better than I could have ever imagined. Katie and Chelsea worked so well with all of my vendors and truly made me feel like nothing could go wrong. I can't say enough about them. They are truly the dream team and made my day sparkle!

The most wonderful part of having KOWE by your side on your wedding day is that it really is the only way you can sit back and relax, knowing that you have someone on your team who will not let anything go wrong, or who will "take care of it" before the news ever reaches you. Katie O' and her staff are professional, warm and personal and understand what you need way more than you do. If weddings were like christmas parties, I would ask KOWE to help me with mine every year.

Katie’s One Special Day package was lifesaving. I planning the wedding myself, but with the benefit of Katie’s periodic advice, guidance, recommendations, and reassurance along the way. Katie then stepped in closer to the wedding to put together a detailed schedule, review contracts, take care of vendor confirmations, and just essentially button everything up.
On the big day, Katie appeared on the scene, and I literally never had another worry from that point forward. Weddings are complicated. No matter how carefully you plan, little issues pop up continually throughout the day. Especially at a DIY type of venue, if you do NOT have a coordinator, the bride spends her day keeping track of everything and doing all of the unexpected problem-solving. Hiring Katie was the best money we spent, because I didn't have to worry at all. I literally to this day have NO idea what went wrong or had to be fixed during the wedding. When questions arose, people went to Katie. When guests were misdirected by a venue employee and almost saw me BEFORE the ceremony (gasp!!), Katie chased them out. Heaters needing to be moved, confused bus drivers called my cell phone, bridesmaids were starving and needed snacks...HANDLED. Katie is like superwoman. Seriously, she should wear a cape. And maybe best of all, Katie herself is so wonderful! She brings such a fun, optimistic, warm presence to the wedding. Everybody loved her. She was like part of the family! People say your wedding day goes by in a blur, and that the details don't ultimately matter because you don't notice them. With Katie around, that's not true at all! Because I was freed up from rushing and worrying, I really did savor every moment, and I remember all of them—from the biggest deals to the tiniest details. This is such an amazing gift, and worth every penny.

When we were planning our wedding, my husband and I knew we wanted to spend the money to get a day-of planner to execute our ideas on our special day. Because we had been engaged for 2-and-a-half years and dating for almost 7, we had plenty of special touches, sentimental moments and must-have ideas. We didn't want our families running around to make sure everything was done correctly, and we didn't want to worry about it either. We chose Katie and her team for her day-of services after a recommendation from our florist and a phone interview. Even my husband was impressed when we met face-to-face with Katie and her assistant Chelsea. By remembering something so simple yet important like my husband's parents are sadly no longer with us from our prior phone conversation, Katie was able to gracefully skip over that awkward moment so my husband didn't have to go through explaining it. He was amazed. Even though we hired them for day-of, they went above and beyond in the weeks leading up to the wedding, from talking me through hotel negotiations, to meeting with the reception vendors two weeks before because they had never worked with them before or seen the venue. The day before I still hadn't heard from my DJ and Chelsea calmed my fears, quickly tracked him down (somehow!) and made sure I wasn't worried about it as I walked into my rehearsal.
Chelsea and her assistant were gracious, friendly and always right there when someone said, "what do we do?" Even something like helping my dad get his tie on the morning of was a huge help and pinning the corsages on the groomsmen. The day also went off on time and Chelsea even kept it from me that we had tornado watches in the area! My husband and I, and our families and friends, highly recommend Katie O and her fabulous team. You won't be disappointed. We still say, out of all the vendors we hired for the day, their service was the best money spent.

Katie O and her team were single handedly the most valuable addition to our wedding day. Everything from the coordination, to the logistics, to the last minute brush fires and needed ideas were perfect because she was there for us. Her attention to detail, her professionalism, and her ability to single handedly make everything she touched flawless made us incredibly grateful for her presence and service. I have been in and to countless weddings and I honestly think every wedding on the planet runs the risk of not being complete without her being there.

Katie was an invaluable part of my wedding. She was extremely detail orientated, insightful, and professional. Her knowledge of local vendors and planning prowess continually impressed my husband and me. She never missed a beat - my day would not have been as special as it was without her help. I couldn't speak more highly of her support.

Katie was a lifesaver in the days leading up to the wedding and on the day of! I've seen so many friends get so stressed out about their weddings, but Katie was calm & collected -- which in turn made me calm & collected. She thought of every detail and came to the rescue when anything was needed on the day of the wedding! On top of her organization skills, her personality is simply sparkling. I think she was just as excited for our big day as we were!

After my first conversation with Katie, I knew she was going to be invaluable. Her work ethic, ability to pay attention to detail, friendliness, efficiency and knowledge of her industry made me confident that we were in good hands. Little did I know how much I would appreciate all her work. Katie truly allowed me to be excited about my daughter's wedding throughout the planning process and most importantly during celebration. Katie and her staff completely understand how to get the job done and make it look easy. I'm not sure if there were any glitches because Katie helped me plan every detail beforehand but, if things did go wrong, they handled it seamlessly.
I can't thank her enough for all her help. The best money we ever spent!

When it came to planning my wedding I was originally going to do everything myself. I am so glad that I decided to call a professional and that Katie O' was the coordinator I called.
Katie was unbelievably helpful, professional, knowledgeable and supportive! I could call her throughout the planning process whenever I needed to and she proactively set up monthly meetings with me and my husband. I really enjoyed the fun part of planning a wedding, finding my own vendors, decorating, tastings etc. The part of planning that really overwhelmed me was day of scheduling and knowing what to ask vendors during vendor meetings. This is where Katie's expertise was invaluable. She attended meetings with me and coordinated with the vendors at the location of my wedding perfectly. When it came to the actual wedding, she coordinated everything from start to finish. Everyone in my wedding party was impressed with her. I remember my dad walking up to me asking where the "men's" schedule for the day of was. I had no idea what he was talking about until my maid of honor pulled out Katie's business card which had an hour by hour break down of where the wedding party needed to be stapled to the back of it. There was one for the men and one for the women. I was so impressed, what a fabulous idea!! This is just one example of the attention to detail that Katie has. Her and her assistant actually walked around with "tool belts" filled with anything we could possibly need. My hair towards the end of the night was falling and I needed a bobby pin. Katie pulled one out of her "tool belt" and came to the rescue. Any time there was a change that needed to be made throughout the reception she handled it seamlessly. My husband had been unsure that we needed a wedding planner when we started this process but the night of the wedding he told me that with all of the money we spent on this event, she was hands down the best investment! Whatever you are looking for from day or coordination all the way to full fledged planning Katie is your girl! She gave us the best gift of the night, the ability to enjoy our wedding!

Katie will make your wedding day run so smoothly, it will be a dream. Katie made our wedding day one of the best days of our lives and we would highly recommend working with her. She is a talented wedding professional with creative and great ideas that will make your day special and unique. It will run like clockwork and you won’t have to worry about the details on your special day. At the same time, Katie is open to ideas and making your day special for you. Her advice leading up to the wedding was invaluable. We felt that the money we spent for Katie to advise us before the wedding and for day of wedding services was money well spent and one of the best wedding investments we made.

Katie O’ was a pleasure to work with from the very beginning, but her professionalism and skillfulness really shone when we had a last minute catastrophe. I believe we gave Katie O’ and her team one of the greatest challenges they’ll ever face! After a year of careful planning, our venue informed us on Friday afternoon that we would not be able to hold our wedding there on Saturday. The entire weekend was supposed to take place at a beautiful estate, and the last minute cancellation meant everything had to change. Katie and her team got to work immediately on finding us new locations, all the while remaining calm, warm, and reassuring. Because we had Katie working on our behalf, we were able to relax and be with our guests. It wasn’t until 10:00pm on Friday evening that they were able to find us a place to hold the wedding, as most venues were already booked, but it was perfect. Not only were they able to find us locations for the wedding, reception and other events of the weekend, they were able to communicate expertly with all of our vendors, so that our wedding weekend actually went very smoothly. We were so impressed, and are forever grateful to Katie and her team for all they did to get us married despite the last-minute setbacks. It couldn’t have been more beautiful.

Originally I opted for a wedding coordinator because I was planning our wedding from a distance. Little did I know at the time Katie O would not only be my saving grace but the best investment we made for our wedding! Passionate, professional, honest, organized, knowledgeable, accommodating, I can go on for hours!
From the moment Katie and her team arrived with lunch, until the minute the reception ended Katie ensured the day flowed smoothly without a hitch. Everyone in our bridal party was in awe of how simply amazing, helpful, friendly and organized she was! As a bride, there are so many thoughts going through your head the day of, it’s nice to know someone is there to handle all the details. I didn’t once have to stress about our transportation (will they show up?) timeline (when is my first look?) where to go or what to do. Katie’s presence allowed us to focus on each other and really enjoy the day celebrating with our friends and family. There is so much that goes into planning a wedding, and even more behind the scenes the day of! Even the most organized bride can use a little help. Katie’s knowledge and attention to detail are unparalleled! From the details to rehearsal to day of she has it covered! I strongly urge you to not only hire a coordinator for your special day but work with Katie O! She truly is the best!

My wedding day was seamless thanks to Katie O' and her team...having KO do partial-planning & day of-coordination was exactly what I needed to make sure all my planning was carried out perfectly & allow my bridesmaids, family and I to relax and enjoy the day, without worrying about all the nitty-gritty details. The in-house planner at my venue was, to put it nicely, too careless and easy-going, and it was RELIEVING to have KO on my side - to respond to emails, offer ideas, set up all my knick knacks, come up with a doable schedule, etc. - I never would have wanted to do that and more on the day of, let alone delegate to family and friends. Even my husband, who did very little by way of actually planning was super-impressed and grateful.
