Karen and Celebrated Events were a fantastic help with our high school reunion, which was a great success. It wouldn't have been nearly as good without her guidance, support and creativity - we are grateful to have been connected with her and her team - Karen became an honorary class member and friend!

Organizing a wedding can be stressful, especially when it comes to finding the right vendors. Initially, we were skeptical about hiring a wedding coordinator, but I'm here to say it's the most important piece of your wedding, bar none.

Karen was incredibly responsive, organized, and helpful in ways we couldn't even foresee. She responded to our questions in a timely fashion, and was always one step ahead of us. She was on time for meetings and always extremely professional throughout the whole process. Karen knows what she is doing and it really shows.

A couple months before the wedding, she helped us map out our wedding schedule, wedding party organization, vendor contracts, and helped answer any questions we had. This was incredibly useful for us to envision what our wedding day would look like.

She was also critical in the final days before the wedding, helping communicating with vendors, setup the event space, and handling any issues that arose. It was incredibly comforting on the wedding day knowing Karen was taking charge behind the scenes to make sure everything went smoothly. All we had to do was be ourselves and Karen handled the rest.

Karen also has a great selection of items to decorate your event space like table numbers, signs, and lights. Our winery themed space looked amazing with beautiful hanging lights and wine bottle table numbers.

We would highly recommend Karen to be your event or wedding coordinator.

We decided to go with Karen at Celebrated Events because she was recommended by our venue, Linganore Wine cellars. However, whether you are at Linganore or not, you will want to go with Celebrated Events. Karen (and her whole family) went above and beyond in so many ways. We chose Karen for Day of Coordination and globe lights (which looked great!). She was able to help suggest vendors, reviewed all our contracts and verified that everything was set beforehand. As a project manager, I can be a stickler for details, but Karen was always on top of it! She deftly herded cats during our rehearsal, and day of I got to actually enjoy my wedding because Karen and Jenny took care of everything. I am still learning about things that happened behind the scenes that they just took care of (like fixing a broken shoe for a guest). Celebrated Events was lovely to work with. I very highly recommend Celebrated Events. Your expectations will be far exceeded.

Karen at Celebrated events was amazing! She was very responsive to emails and had a list of decor items that were available for us to use. She also knew the venue well so she was able to give ideas of what would look good and where it would look the best. The lights that were strung above the dance floor made the venue and pictures even better. They also packed everything us for us at the end of the night and made our wedding day less stressful!

When I started planning my wedding, I was totally lost and overwhelmed. I found Karen Farrow using the Google search. I believe, this was my best Google hit in my life. Karen made the wedding planning much easier than I expected. She guided us through each step of the process. She arranged all vendors for the wedding. She helped and took a lot of responsibilities: i.e., reminding me and sending the my appointments schedule, sending invitations, preparing the wedding budget, even buying some snacks and food for the hair and make up prior to the wedding party. And of course, she was at the wedding guiding us every step of the way. I would recommend Karen to help and plan your event.

The first comment from every guests, “wow this venue is beautiful, the lights are gorgeous.” The lights really created a dancing under the stars effect. Made the dance-floor the place to be, and made the party truly elegant. Photos came out amazing do to the gorgeous details. Would 100% recommend.

Professional and friendly staff, and love that it’s a family business! Super organized. I didn’t have to do much on my end. They handled it all gracefully!

Celebrated events saved our wedding! Karen responded promptly with all questions, remained committed to helping us through a small ceremony (due to the pandemic) and was AMAZING when we had to move our wedding date last minute due to snow (which is very uncharacteristic in this area in December). I cannot recommend her enough!

We met Karen about a year ago. My daughter Kelsey and I spoke with a few coordinators together and wasn't sold on anyone yet. Then, Kelsey spoke with Karen. She called me very excited and said "I want to go with Karen from "Celebrated Events." They connected immediately! Karen is one of the most hard-working, detail-oriented, kind and self-less souls you could ever meet. She felt our vision and only enhanced it. When I say she went above and beyond that would be understating it. She has a huge heart and truly treats your event as if it were her own daughter getting married! She cares deeply for clients and is always asking what she can do, offers suggestions or solves any issue that may arise. She coordinated all of our vendors to make us a cohesive and bonded unit. She frequently visited the venue, spoke with caterer weekly, coordinated the bridal party every step of the way. Karen was always available by text, email and phone to answer questions or calm me down lol! I just love her!! The wedding was absolutely wonderful, not a problem or a worry!! I gave Karen all the decorations etc. and never once did I feel as if I needed to check on things or make sure things were okay. The first time I saw everything set up was at the same time as the bride and groom!! Karen had all our trust and faith to make our daughters wedding a true fairy tale!! We would highly recommend Karen Farrow and Celebrated Events as your wedding coordinator!! She was remarkable and I gained a new friend!

We spent over a year planning our wedding, as we got closer we hired Karen to help keep us organized as we got closer to the wedding. Then the Pandemic of COVID19 hit, Karen provided us with constant updates and recommendations as we continued to plan...After a few weeks we realized we wouldn't be able to keep our date and had to postpone. Karen unfortunately wasn't available on our new date - but that didn't stop her from making sure our wedding would be a success. She helped us find an available wedding planner, sent the new planner all of the information she had for our wedding, and negotiated a discounted rate...Then she still provided us with some additional items we were "borrowing" from her for our wedding...If you have the opportunity to use Celebrated Events/Karen as your wedding planner DO IT!

Karen was great. Everything was flawless and our guests even commented about that. She was very responsive and super easy to coordinate with. I would recommend Karen to anyone looking for a coordinator.
