The BEST wedding planner!!!

Words cannot adequately describe how phenomenal Karli was as our wedding coordinator and planner. From the moment we first met her, we knew we were in the best hands. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine passion for her work were evident every step of the way.
Karli went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect. She meticulously planned every detail, ensuring that nothing was overlooked. Her organizational skills are unparalleled, and she managed every aspect of our wedding with grace and precision. On the day itself, everything flowed seamlessly, thanks to her expert coordination. What truly sets Karli apart is her ability to bring a vision to life. She took our ideas and transformed them into a beautiful, cohesive reality that exceeded our wildest dreams. Her creativity and insight were invaluable, and her suggestions always enhanced our plans. Karli’s calm and reassuring presence was a constant source of comfort, making the entire planning process enjoyable and stress-free.Our guests were in awe of how smoothly everything ran, and we owe it all to Karli. Her dedication and hard work ensured that our special day was not only beautiful but also unforgettable. If you're looking for a wedding coordinator and planner who will go above and beyond to make your wedding day extraordinary, look no further than Karli. She is simply the best! She is also terrific at handling wedding issues that should arise! We ended up having 2 dresses with stuck zippers that broke on us and she was able to handle the situation with such care and ease and found a resolution in no time! We adore Karli and are so grateful for her!!!

Absolutely the BEST Coordinator out there!

Karli and her team are the embodiment of professionalism, organization, and calm in the middle of a storm. Karli was there with me and my husband from the final walk through with our venue to the very end of our wedding. She helped advocate for me when I didn't feel like I could speak up for myself. If there was ever an issue, I (the bride) didn't know about it and Karli handled everything. There were also zero issues other than a flower wall that wasn't cooperating because Karli made sure that everyone and everything was in its place well before the event began. The peace of mind that came with trusting Karli and her team was life changing. My husband and I got to enjoy our wedding 100% stress free and the night was absolutely PERFECT!!! If you are getting married, I HIGHLY recommend Karli to help keep your wedding perfect and stress free. Karli also got photos of our wedding which we cherished for 2 months before our wedding photographer even graced us with a preview of our photos. It is the little things like these photos that Karli is already thinking of for you without you even having to ask.

We love Ecklectic Events!!!!

Karli was an absolute lifesaver as our wedding coordinator! From the very beginning, she was organized, professional, and so easy to work with. She took the time to understand our vision and made sure every detail was executed flawlessly. On the wedding day, Karli and team handled everything behind the scenes so smoothly that we were able to truly relax and enjoy every moment.

Her calm and positive energy kept us stress-free, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything ran perfectly—from coordinating vendors to keeping the timeline on track. We honestly couldn’t have imagined our day without her guidance and support.

If you’re looking for someone who is detail-oriented, reliable, and genuinely cares about making your day perfect, Ecklectic Events is the one! Highly recommend to any couple planning their big day.

Selected St. Augustine’s #1 Wedding Planner

What an amazing experience working with Karli in preparation for my beautiful wedding in Saint Augustine at the Casa Monica and Spa. As she is very familiar with the hotel and location. she put me at ease as I was going through my rehearsal dinner and wedding day planning. It was her number one priority as a business owner and wedding planner.. Prior to our wedding day, Karli was always there to support me at any given time. Communication was one of the biggest pieces that I was looking for in wedding planner and she absolutely superseded my expectations.. Karli made me feel like I was the only bride she was working with. Meaning her customer service and helping me through the process was excellent!! Karli’s professionalism, attention to detail, exceptional service and highly effective communication made our wedding day, the most memorable and beyond. I highly recommend Karli who also happens to be the business owner of this company. She IS your Saint Augustine‘s wedding planner of choice.!!!

Last minute miracle

Karli was amazing!!! She saved the day for us when our first booked day of coordinator didn’t follow through. Karli stepped in with a positive attitude and without any hesitation helping bring all our ideas to life. She took so much stress off of us with everything she did leading up to the wedding, whether that was connecting with our other vendors or just being a knowledgeable person to turn to for input, and everything in between. The day was so perfect and Karli perfectly executed our vision!! I would recommend her to anyone 100 times over!

Highly recommend!!

We got to work with Karli for our wedding at the Lightner Museum in St. Augustine. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I honestly wish I got to work with her a little longer because she was such a joy to be around. My situation was a little odd because I was in Japan during the first 6 months of the planning process, yet Karli was extremely flexible and helpful despite being in completely opposite time zones. In regards to working with the Lightner staff, she and Genevieve were an unstoppable pair, and they both kept my wedding running smoothly. I cannot praise or recommend Karli enough.

Best of the best !!!

Karli was the absolute BEST wedding coordinator we could have ever asked for! She was so on top of every detail, big and small, and answered all our crazy questions! She communicated between all my vendors and made sure our wedding went off without a hitch! Even my parents and bridesmaids noticed and commented on just how incredible Karli was on the big day, without knowing all the hard work she had put in for months prior! I was as unsure about whether I would even need a wedding coordinator, but it was the absolute best decision and I have recommended Karli to all my engaged friends and family!
Thank you, thank you, thank you Karli, I would’ve been a stressed wreck without you!

Amazing!! Highly recommend!

We cannot say enough nice things about Karli. She really went over the top to listen to our wants/needs and helped us every step of the way. She was tactful with the way she would make suggestions and always made sure we were happy. Our rehearsal and wedding day were so smooth with her by our side. I would recommend Karli to everyone, with my eyes closed! She was sweet and patient with our family at rehearsal, she was ultra organized with the timeline on wedding day, and she let us enjoy our day completely. Not once did she bother us on wedding day. She made decisions that were in our best interest and was so calm, cool and collected that it gave everyone peace of mind. Karli- we truly can’t thank you enough for the incredible help on our special day. Without you so many of my wedding day dreams wouldn’t have come to reality. Your kindness was so infectious and you really listed to us and made sure our day was special. Thank you soooo much!!! - Sincerely, The Bernals

Calm in the Midst of Chaos

I cannot recommend Karli enough! I got married the weekend that Hurricane Ian hit Florida (October 1st). To say that it was stressful was an understatement as most of our guests were traveling into Florida for the wedding. Karli kept in constant contact with me and make me feel so calm and at ease. She kept in contact with all our vendors and made the day incredibly smooth! Even in the wedding prep stages, she would reach out to vendors for me and offered to meet with the vendors in person since I live about 3 hours away from St. Augustine. Did I mention that we just hired her to be our day of coordinator? She went above and beyond to make our day special and we will never forget it.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
