Amazing!

Words cannot explain how wonderful Kris and her team were. I came to her a bit late in my planning (4 months before my wedding) when things got overwhelming for me and I couldn’t have done anything without her. She kept me on task, she was always accessible and made sure my husband and I enjoyed our day. I was so sad when I had to let her go work her magic for someone else because my coordinator became my friend. If you’re looking for any type of decor I’m sure she has it or can get it the warehouse is insane. Kris Lavender is the best decision you can make for your event.

Beyond Amazing Team

The Kris Lavender team went above and BEYOND to make my day special and memorable. After my initial outreach to the KL team I scheduled my first call with them within 24 hours. Their communication is top notch, and their attention to detail is even greater. They will work in any capacity that you need them to. Whether it's full wedding planning and execution, or even just a phone consultation to help you flesh out details on your own. Their pricing and packaging is fair and it's clear that their primary focus is to help execute your big day to perfection--whatever that looks like for you. They were quick to share ideas to help shape my vision, BUT were not pushy and did not try to sway any ideas that I had in any direction. Don't even get me started on the day-of execution. It was so great being able to hand everything over to them and trust that they would set everything up to perfection. They were an absolute dream and I recommend them 100x.

Amazing Experience!

What an amazing experience I had working with Kris Lavender and her team for my wedding. I wish I could provide 10 stars! They were very attentive, responsive and just plain fun! They made this an experience no one will soon forget. The attention to detail and care they had was phenomenal. My guest can not stop talking about it.

Fantastic!

Kris Lavender and her team are total pros. From the first consultation through our wedding day, she listened and perfectly understood our vision for our special day and brought it to life with no stress and great attention to detail. Any changes were immediately addressed and I always felt I could reach out with anything we needed and she or one of her amazing team members was there to help. I'd highly recommend Kris Lavender to anyone looking for a superior experience!

Best Hire of Our Wedding

Words cannot describe how grateful we were to have Kris and Darcha on our wedding day! I was pretty prepared detail wise leading up to the wedding, so all I wanted was someone to take over for the day. These two went above and beyond that! We got overwhelmed with setup before the wedding and decided to hand those responsibilities over to Kris and Darcha and they made my vision come true! Every detail was executed exactly how I wanted and better! They made my wedding party feel comfortable enough to ask questions and have fun in stressful moments. They made our families feel welcome when everything started and all the way through wedding day. Most importantly, they made my wife and I comfortable enough to hand the reigns over and just enjoy our wedding! Not once did either of us feel like we had to control and manage anything during the rehearsal or the actual day, which was SO nice! These two women are SUPERHEROES! The pep talks along the way were so refreshing and Kris' calm energy really carried us in tense moments! 1000% recommend their services to any bride dealing with planning stress!

June 2021 Wedding

There are no words to describe how grateful I am for Kris Lavender and her crew. They were professional and helped me along the way. My wedding day was amazing because they kept everything flowing as needed and made sure no unnecessary drama was brought to my husband and I on that day or the days leading up to it. We appreciate them so much. I got frustrated during the my wedding day (I was pregnant and didn’t know at the time) and Kris came through and shut everything down to give me space to breathe and relax. We love them so much and I am utterly glad that we chose them for our special day. I was originally going to not hire a day of coordinator but everytime I spoke with Kris it was like a breath of fresh air like I had known her for years. I HIGHLY recommend her services.

The Kris Lavender team made our wedding dreams come true!

I honestly wish I could give more than 5 stars! Kris and Morgan are the absolute best wedding planners. Kris made us feel like family from day one, and made sure that our vision was successfully brought to life! Morgan is amazing!! Her organization, attention to detail, clear communication, consistency and overall kindness make her a JOY to work with. The team at Kris Lavender created a smooth planning process and phenomenal wedding, despite a global pandemic. We can't thank you enough for making our big day everything we wanted and more!

Great leader!

I had the opportunity to work with Morgan and Kris for a recent wedding event. This is a coordinating SQUAD! They were so detailed and informative and easy to work with. Every step of the event was smooth. We would definitely recommend working with Kris Lavender for your event!

A Lifesaver!

Kris Lavender, LLC stepped in and helped me (from afar) with the final plans, coordination and, most importantly, "day of" events for my daughter's wedding. While the coordination of the vendors was extremely helpful, the personalized hands on service the entire day of the big event proved invaluable. Kris and her staff were professional, friendly and proved to be a calming force. SO VERY GLAD we hired Kris Lavender, LLC!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
