11/23 Wedding

Truly could not have asked for a better officiant. She was so receptive to what I wanted. I wanted religious but then had a change of how much and she gladly changed it to include God but not be a church wedding for our non religious family members comfort. I loved working with her and then the ceremony was beautiful and exactly what I wanted. So so grateful!

Simply Impeccable

You can't go wrong working with her. Not only did she do a fabulous job with the decor, she integrated perfectly well with all vendors. She took her time to ask relevant questions, make reasonable suggestions and stayed calm, respectful and friendly all through the process. I really enjoyed working with her and I definitely would recommend her a thousand times. She checked all possible boxes with her impeccable service.

Justice wedding 11/24

Serenity did an amazing job executing the vision I had for our day. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was done to my liking and made sure to make our wants/needs a priority! No matter what problems came about through out the night she handled everything and took all the stress off our plates. We will most defiantly use her again for any events we have in Columbia.

I have had the pleasure of working with a variety of wedding planners; however none of them come close to measuring up to Kinsza and her team. They are kind, passionate, and dedicated as if they were your family. Beyond prepared and even more ready to problem solve on the fly! Thank you for making world class events with NOAHS and we can’t wait to have you back! Please consider Kinsza and team- you will not regret it! (Look at that floor crawling dedication)
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
