Finding just the right destination for your destination wedding, event, or special celebration can be so overwhelming and stressful! Kat with Calla Events, Design, & Travel, LLC went above and beyond to help my husband and I plan a trip to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We had a limited budget and many variables to work with. We didn’t make it easy on her but her patience, attention to detail, and tireless efforts to keep searching for just the right trip got us to a trip we can’t wait to enjoy! She replaced our stress with excitement as we went over the options she offered us. No detail was too small for her. She really put together a very personal package “just for us”. We are so grateful for her service and the product she provided.

The best decision we made was to hire Trends To Traditions! Kat, Amanda and the entire TTT team were absolutely amazing to work with!! I didn't think it was possible to NOT feel stressed while planning a wedding - but it is! Your knowledge and experience was so helpful- and our wedding was beyond our expectations to the very last detail. Because of you and your team, we knew everything was under control, and we could spend quality time with friends and family and not have to worry about anything. Thank you again for helping us to plan our dream wedding!!

I can't even begin to say how truly amazing our wedding day was! I worked with Trends for almost 1.5 years leading up to my wedding. I wouldn't describe myself as a normal bride- I was truly infatuated with the small details- so much that my meetings lasted, on average, 3 hours or longer (& we had a TON of meetings.) I can honestly say that Kat & Team made every single meeting so exciting that I never wanted them to end! Moral of my rant, no matter how long or where you need to meet, they will jump through hoops to make sure you are assisted and happy. 3/4 of our meetings turned into lunch or dinner dates- it's almost like you acquire instant best friends when you sign your contract! You are eventually assigned "your person" and mine luckily was Amanda. She was there to guide me, remind me of payments, offer advice and direction and basically be my #1 sidekick for 6 months. The day of, I had another "person" added and her name was Laura. Laura rocked! Her and Amanda spent the morning driving back and forth between houses making sure the bridesmaids & groomsmen were on time, marriage licenses were obtained, and rings were in place. As my mom and I look back, we can honestly say we can't come up with one thing that we would have changed. The trends team are a great group of gals to work with (and befriend.) Thank you Amanda for making our wedding day truly PERFECT!!!!!!

I love Trends to Traditions!!! Everyone there was so helpful. Everything I wanted in my wedding they made happen. My wedding was beautiful thanks to everyone at Trends To Traditions!!

Let me start off by saying that my wedding day was the single greatest day of my life. It was truly a perfect day and it could not have been done without Katherine and her wonderful team!

She turned Southpointe into the perfect venue for our wedding! Our outdoor cocktail party by the pool was such a hit! The setup and color scheme made our cocktail hour the ultimate experience for our guests.

Trends to Traditions also designed the ballroom to look stunning. Every detail, from the flowers to the chairs and linens was so well thought out and came together nicely. The ambiance in the room perfectly matched my husband and my personality and really reflected our taste and style as a couple!

Katherine's wedding specialist, Aubrey, was also such an essential part of the wedding. She made sure that everything went smoothly. Even the weeks leading up to the wedding, Aubrey was my crutch-- when I was worried, needed ideas or answers to our questions, she was there!! Aubrey knew all the minor details and did so much additional work, which allowed me to focus on the major decisions.
All of the vendors Trends to Traditions recommended fit right into our budget. Kat's honest opinions and wedding knowledge took our wedding from nice to spectacular! It would not have been a tenth as nice if it wasn’t for Kat and her team's design ideas, color schemes, knowledge and day of expertise. Her team helped me so much that I did not have to lift a finger the day of the wedding, which allowed me to focus on my guests and have fun! I was the most relaxed and calm bride because I wasn’t knew Kat and her team had everything taken care of! Choosing Trends to Traditions to plan my wedding was the best decision.

Katy and Katherine were both not only extremely attentive and organized, but they were beyond friendly and caring. I have already recommended them to anyone I know getting married because and can not imagine anyone planning a wedding without their very own Katie! I purchased a package that included 2 planners to be there for my wedding day and to my delightful surprise, there were at least 4 in attendance and even. Katherine the owner came. I can't possibly say enough about Trends to Traditions, in particular Katie and Katherine, they truly have a unique talent and gift!

Trends to Traditions provided us with first class service. Everyone we worked with was courteous, answered questions promptly and were so helpful in providing information in all areas regarding our daughter's wedding day.

I do not have any complaints about the wedding day itself. If we had any questions, our wedding planners were very accessable and took care of everything. The whole day, from the ceremony to the reception went beautifully and I have nothing but great memories of the whole process.
