The real deal

Kara Patten is the REAL DEAL. From the Obama's to a local or destination bride, she has done it all - with class, grace + her frye boots. Kara is personality+ paired perfectly with her eye for detail and knowing you + yours inside and out, you question... have we known each other our whole lives?! She just gets it. You need someone who just gets it. Without question. If you are questioning whether or not you need a wedding planner, email Kara. She is truly the best of the best.

More than just a planning experience

I truly do not know where to begin. Not a word can express my gratitude I have for Kara Patten. If you are looking for the most organized, creative, caring, and talented planner, look no further! Kara was there through every high and low in our planning journey, she took the stress of heavy planning off our plates which made the day so much more enjoyable as a whole. She kept us organized, she made us feel grounded. After every venue tour, vendor meeting, email, and google meet we felt more in control with things that often leave couples spiraling in anxiety. Kara made us feel supported, understood and she made us feel confident that our dream wedding would be executed. She is also realistic. She worked with each vendor to make sure they felt supported, she really goes the extra mile in every way. As a bride I never was worried about the flow of the weekend/events. She was always in our corner. Her design was flawless, every detail was executed to perfection and was clearly thought hard about to make it personal and perfect. Everything was aesthetic, cohesive, and most importantly — memorable. We hoped for a dusting of snow and got hit with intermittent rain, and Kara helped us embrace it, and reminded us it fit our ‘cozy’ vibe, it ended up being absolutely perfect. Kara, we cannot thank you enough. You made our wedding entertaining, beautiful, personable and kept us stress free, we could not have done it without you!

Kara is a master at what she does - she is the secret sauce for making your wedding a real life dream!

If I could give anyone one piece of advice for their wedding, it would be to hire Kara Patten. Every single detail of our wedding was better than we imagined and it was all because of her. Kara is a master at what she does – professional, knowledgeable, talented, and incredibly organized. Even after our first meeting, it was evident how much she cares about her couples and how much effort she puts into making their day perfect. On top of all that, she is such a kind and genuine person. We are so lucky to call her a friend!

The wedding planning process can seem so overwhelming, but Kara makes it truly enjoyable and easy. One of the things we are most grateful for is how present we were on wedding day because Kara had everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) handled. She was right there by our side making sure every moment was perfect. We enjoyed every second of working with Kara and would recommend her over and over again!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
