Your wedding needs Kelsey

We had planned our wedding a little over 2 years in advance and Kelsey was there to help in EVERY ASPECT throughout those 2 years. We loved everything about our day. One of my favorite moments (I wish I knew who had the photo) is when my dress kept coming undone where the hooks were for my train and in some places breaking. We were walking around from table to table greeting and taking pictures with our guests and Kelsey followed behind me, fixing my dress where she could and rehooking it where the little eyes were still there. Crouched down, walking with me every step, hidden from the guests and camera. Every bride needs someone who cares that much about the details. It's the little things that matter. We cannot express how much we enjoyed her company as well as her assistant Ellie. We appreciate you. More than we could ever explain.

Absolutely Excellent

Kelsey was INCREDIBLE. We knew nothing about planning our wedding and what all went into it beyond our venue. Kelsey walked us through everything and gave us the perfect amount of direction. She helped us shape our dream wedding that I didn't even have a vision for before I met her. She was ALWAYS communicative and did a great job at checking in on us to keep us moving. Her day of coordinating was incredible and our guests had nothing but good things to say about her and her day-of skills. There were a couple of mishaps the day-of that I (as the bride) had NO clue about until the next day because she took care of them. She also continued great communication afterwards while we continued to figure out some remaining issues with vendors. I cannot recommend Kelsey enough. If I could give 10000/5 stars for everything (including affordability) I absolutely would. She was PRICELESS.

Most stress-free planning experience!!

Kelsey was absolutely incredible. From my very first conversation with her I knew she was going to knock our day out of the park. We opted for her full planning services and I did not have a single bit of stress from the time we started working together through the day of our wedding. Every vendor and style she recommend was perfectly aligned to the vision we had. I was able to relax and fully participate in / enjoy my wedding day; looking back at the pictures just reminds me how that could not have happened without her! I cannot recommend Kelsey and her team highly enough.
