We hired Kris as our day-of coordinator for our June 2021 wedding. It was definitely the best money we spent for the wedding. I'm a type A person and I was not just going to leave things to chance, so having a capable professional handling everything gave me the ability to let go, relax, and just enjoy our day.
I was stressed leading up to the wedding, but starting with the evening before, when Kris took over, I was totally relaxed because there was nothing else left for me to worry about. My memories of my wedding day come with a feeling of pure joy, I wasn't stressed our or worried about anything. I knew that she was taking care of things and all I had to do was enjoy my time with my friends and family.
I had hired my regular hairstylist to come and do all the hair and makeup, and she later told me we were the most chill bridal party she has ever worked with. It was Kris: we didn't need to worry, or run around doing stuff, Kris had it taken care of.
Our wedding turned out beautifully and it was the best, most fun day for my husband, myself, and our friends and family. I know so many people who say that their wedding was stressful for them, their mom, etc. and they cried (not happy tears) multiple times on/leading up to the day. Give yourself (and your mom, groom, bridal party, and everyone else) the best wedding gift of all: the gift of being able to just enjoy the special occasion that your wedding is meant to be. Trust me, you need Kris.
