Covid bride

I found Kristen on wedding wire last year. My venue told me I needed a day of planner & I thought okay no biggie BUT I WAS WRONG. I needed her. I was a COVID bride so my wedding date & venue changed and Kristen was there every step of the way to offer me good advice and support me the whole way through. The day of was perfect & she made sure to take care of literally everything. She dragged wooden logs from my burn pile to make a cute aisle way and grabbed things out of my garage to set the day up perfectly. She is phenomenal

Wonderful Experience!

Kristen was so easy to work with, she is so down to earth, and really listens to what you want. She was fun to brainstorm ideas with for details and helped me fine tune the timeline to make it a smooth running, memorable day. The day of, she came early, and took care of everything while I was getting ready and I was in complete Aw when I saw just how wonderful of a job she did. She made it so that myself, and my parents didn't have anything to worry about. She connected with all of our vendors and made sure everyone was were they needed to be. Leaving your big day in the hands of someone else can be scary, but I would do it again with Kristen!

Wow, planning a wedding in 2020 was so difficult! But we were happy to have Kristen to help. There is no way to have a wedding without a day-of planner. Someone to help with all the extra details you need set out AND have an advisor for other vendors when things go wrong or they need an opinion. Have to have!!

Best Day of Wedding Coordinator

When we started looking for coordinators, others were pushy! Kristen made it easy to talk to and not only that she was so responsive. I knew this is what I would want on my wedding day. During set up, Kristen took action and knew exactly what I wanted. She was laid back, yet professional and a great person to take a lead when needed. The girl knows what she’s doing and has great taste. I would recommend Kirsten to anyone who is looking for a day of coordinator/full coordinator to help make their wedding day run smoothly! Thank you again for everything, Kristen!

Kristen Is Wonderful!

Kristen did such a beautiful job with our wedding! She connected us with a number of vendors to use at her venue, and she was incredibly knowledgeable about everything we would need. On top of it all she has impeccable taste! Everything she does is beautiful, and I couldn’t recommend her more!

Event Guru is AMAZING!!

We used Kristen, with Event Guru to host our engagement party. From the first meeting with her she listened intently to our wishes and helped work with our budget. She was so patient and truly made our dream party come to life! All our guests just raved about the decor, especially the gorgeous fresh floral arrangements she made herself. I am of course using Event Guru for our upcoming wedding as well and have been so pleased with this experience so far. From helping us find our venue down to the DJ and food, Kristen has been by my side and helped keep me calm through all this crazy planning. I truly recommend her to anyone that just wants to be able to breathe and enjoy the process of creating your special day without feeling overwhelmed. She has been an angel!
