About

Kosi Events is a wedding planning company based out of Grand Junction, Colorado. Owner April had worked in the events industry for years before she decided to plan her own wedding, only to find it surprisingly stressful. This inspired her to start her business, with the goal of helping couples pull off the stress-free celebrations of their dreams. Kosi Events brings thoughtful and bespoke planning services to couples tying the knot in Moab, Vail, Aspen, Telluride, and beyond.

If you want to have the best wedding ever, hire KOSI

April and her team were absolute rockstars from start to finish. The MOST organized, not forgetting any details, thinking of things you didn't even know you needed to think of or need, wonderful to communicate and work with. So kind, caring and extremely dedicated to ensuring you have the best wedding ever. We were able to show up on our wedding day and simply relax and enjoy and have the most fun because everything and every detail was expertly taken care of.

The best wedding planners there is!!!

From the moment we started planning until the very last minute of our wedding day, and even beyond that, our planners April and Andrea exceeded every expectation we had. Their level of service was truly unmatched, and I can honestly say they were one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire planning process.

April and Andrea are incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and detail-oriented, but what really sets them apart is how genuinely wonderful they are as people. They made every meeting fun, stress-free, and something we actually looked forward to. They were always responsive, proactive, and somehow managed to make even the most overwhelming parts of the wedding planning feel effortless.

Their vendor recommendations were absolutely incredible. Every single vendor they connected us with was exceptional, and its clear they have built relationships with the very best in the industry.Their expertise and guidance gave us complete confidence every step of the way, and they consistently went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect.

On our wedding day, everything ran flawlessly because of them. We were able to be fully present, soak in every moment, and truly enjoy the day knowing they had everything under control. Their professionalism, warmth, and dedication are second to none.

If I could give them more than five stars, I would. In fact, I wish I could get married all over again just so I could work with them again!! We are so grateful to them, they were such a special part of our wedding journey. I cannot recommend them highly enough!!

We love you April and Andrea!!!!! And appreciate you more than you'll ever know!!

We had the best experience with Kosi Events!

Kosi Events is hands down the best wedding planning team! They made the planning experience infinitely easier and more enjoyable. I really appreciate the organizational tools they set up for us at the beginning of the planning process, vendor recommendations, monthly calls, taking over the vendor communications, being there the day of our wedding and overall the deep knowledge of the Moab area. We worked with Charley and Andrea and they are so wonderful and lovely. Thank you Kosi team for helping us with the wedding of our dreams!!!

We couldn't have done it without them!

Working with Cait and the Kosi Events team was hands-down the best decision we made for our wedding!

We started planning our wedding at the same time I began nursing school, a combo that could have been incredibly stressful, but thanks to Cait, it never was. From day one, she made everything feel organized and doable. Kosi provided excellent vendor recommendations and an easy-to-follow planning timeline that clearly laid out what to book and when. About six months out, we began monthly meetings with Cait to go over every detail, little by little, which made the entire process feel incredibly manageable.

But the most amazing part of the entire experience was how much of a rockstar Cait was on the wedding day itself. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing. She brought my entire vision to life, coordinated every vendor flawlessly, kept the day on schedule, made sure we were fed and hydrated, and somehow managed to be everywhere at once keeping the party flowing. Our guests even commented that she was “like a ninja” running around making magic happen!

We truly can’t thank Cait enough. She exceeded every expectation and made our day completely stress-free, beautiful, and really let us enjoy the moment. I can honestly say our day would not have been the same without her.If you’re on the fence about hiring a planner…do it. We would recommend Kosi Events a thousand times over!

Can't recommend more highly!

It's hard to put into words just how incredible April and her team are. Right from the very start, when we were unsure if having a 150-person wedding over two days at our own property would be feasible, April provided informed and detailed guidance and resources to help us make the decision. She is a pro, and you can tell how long she's been in the business and how respected she is by the way vendors sing her praises. With every decision she provided all of the information necessary to make it easy and straightforward, without ever being pushy or imposing her own preferences. In the month leading up, and the two days onsite, April could not have been more relaxed and in control, ready to pivot when needed and always projecting calm and certainty. We had a pretty unique ceremony, and many vendors (since it was at our own place), and the Kosi team took it all in stride, managing all vendor communications a month leading up to the wedding so that we could focus on getting the place ready. I couldn't recommend Kosi Events more highly, and the rate felt very reasonable for the value and level of service we received.

Kosi Events is the Answer

As a Type-A individual, I never imagined I’d be able to fully let go and trust the year-long process of planning a wedding—let alone from out of state. Hiring Kosi and working closely with Charley from month 13 until the big day was one of the best decisions we made—not just for our wedding, but for our peace of mind.

From the very beginning, Charley went above and beyond. She outlined every task from day one, kept us organized with Trello, and was lightning-fast in her communication. Her responsiveness, attention to detail, and ability to anticipate needs before we even realized them made us feel cared for every step of the way. Even from hundreds of miles away, we felt connected and confident, which turned what could have been a stressful process into something we were actually able to enjoy.

Kosi also offers rentals, which took even more stress off our plates. One of my specific requests was to have a line of Moroccan rugs down the aisle to complement the desert vibes of Moab. Charley and April spent their own days off scouring flea markets and shops to source them—and on the wedding day, it was exactly as I’d envisioned.

What truly set them apart, though, was the heart they poured into everything. This wasn’t just about logistics—it was about understanding our vision, our personalities, and the experience we wanted for our loved ones. Charley protected us from overpriced vendors, offered creative alternatives, and came up with ideas that made our wedding uniquely ours. For example, since my partner and I are big fans of early 2000s emo music, she helped us incorporate acoustic versions of our favorite bands into cocktail hour and even suggested fun touches like custom napkins and a temporary tattoo station—which ended up being a huge hit with our guests.

On the wedding day, everything ran flawlessly—but what meant the most was how calm and present we were able to feel. Instead of worrying about timelines or details, we laughed, danced, and soaked in every moment with our guests, knowing we were in the best hands. Jennifer Lopez in The Wedding Planner had nothing on Charley. I forgot deodorant during a dress change—Charley had it. I started to feel anxious and needed champagne as guests arrived—Charley already had it in hand.

Our friends and family kept saying how seamless and beautiful everything felt, and that’s a reflection of the love, care, and hard work Charley put into every detail. If you’re wondering whether a planner is worth it—especially if you’re planning from afar—let me assure you: it is. Kosi didn’t just give us the wedding we dreamed of; they gave us the gift of truly being able to live it. For that, we’ll always be grateful.

Highly Recommend!

We are so glad we chose to work with Kosi Events for our wedding! Lacie was our planner and she was a lifesaver, I don't know what we would have done without her. She created a timeline, helped us with rentals, and even took over all vendor communication for the few weeks prior to the wedding. The day of she made sure that everything went as scheduled and helped ensure that the day was as low stress for us as possible. I highly recommend Lacie and her team, they.made our special day absolutely perfect.
