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.

Across the Country and Effortless!

We had an incredible experience using Fairytales Event Design for our Cannon Beach wedding. We live across the country so time change played a major part in connecting with other vendors. Kelsey did an amazing job working with us to helping us plan our big day as well as, keeping us connected to our other vendors. Our wedding would not have been so effortless without all her hard work and dedication to our dream wedding!! We couldn’t have done it without her!

Please hire fairyfales

Kelsey and the Fairytales team were INCREDIBLE in ensuring our wedding day went smoothly and according to plan. Like many other brides/couples who do the majority of the wedding planning themselves, I didn't really know what I was looking for or where to start in finding a day-of coordinator (or if I even needed one), but Kelsey was worth her weight in gold. She was the point of contact for the vendors, helped with guest flow, setting things up, making sure things happened at the right times, etc. She was like the stage manager of our wedding, and we honestly could not have done it without her and the team. For those couples who are hiring their own individual vendors and especially who are having a backyard wedding, I HIGHLY recommend Fairytales. I did not have to worry about anything on the day of my wedding because of them.

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.

Fairytales made our wedding run smooth!

Rania, our-day-of coordinator from Fairytales, was amazing. Rania reviewed all of our contracts and she caught a few things before our event that we didn’t notice with some of our vendors - which prevented a potential big headache later. She sent us a couple of forms to fill out and created our day of agenda - and then coordinated that with our other vendors. Our event had 120 or so people. Rania helped organize our lively wedding party on the day of the rehearsal, and again the day of the wedding. She was super positive and helpful - especially given the 95 degree heat we had come the day of the wedding. She was also flexible - and willing to come earlier than we had initially anticipated. She had a bag with all the essentials - which came in handy when I managed to cover the bottom of my dress in wet dirt. Ultimately - she helped the wedding run incredibly smooth - and even made sure to pack us a to-go-bag of food and water for our ride to our hotel so that we had something to eat that night. I highly recommend the Fairytales team.

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.

Day of Coordinator

Kelsey was wonderful! I couldn't have done it without her. The day went so smooth - I had no stress worrying about timeline, seating, set-up, etc. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

Solved last minute issues for us

Kelsey and Kristina are awesome. Kristina was our day of coordinator and she killed it. During rehearsal, the day before, we realized we didn't have a mic stand for the musician during the ceremony. The site didn't have one and there were no stores nearby that had one. Kristina's husband picked one up for us on his way to meet Kristina for the night. We would have had to find someone to drive down the mountain to pick one up if it had not been for her. Very organized, professional, fun, and kind. Definitely recommend.

Every Wedding Needs Kelsey

We worked with Kelsey for 2+ years on our postponed wedding and now we are pretty sad that we won't be meeting with her any more! She was so great in helping us sort through COVID protocols, find vendors, stay organized and stay sane! Day of, she was fantastic. We did not have a single worry and spent all our time enjoying our wedding and having fun. She was so organized and worked so well with our whole vendor team. We cant say enough about how great she and the team were!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
