Our experience working with Karey and Katie at Mint Julep Studio was so wonderful. My fiancé and I knew we wanted assistance during the wedding planning process. My only wish is that we hired them sooner! We bought a partial planning package through Mint Julep and it felt like it was more than enough. They were available for check in meetings in person to keep our wedding planning on target for our wedding date. We also corresponded via email frequently about planning. Karey helped prepare our flowers and table arrangements for our wedding. It was so nice having them do our flowers as well. Also, we had access to the online planner, Aisle Planner, through their company. This was such a wonderful resource for us to coordinate details. RSVPS and meal choices were included here and also seating arrangements. It made our wedding day coordination even easier!

Finally our wedding week arrived! One of the best parts was the coordination of all of our vendors the week prior to our wedding. Katie contacted all the vendors and gave them a timeline for our wedding day. The wedding timeline was also shared with us and we were able to share it with our bridal party. Katie worked tirelessly on our wedding day going between my room and my husband’s room at the Four Seasons. She helped coordinate lunch for both the bridesmaids and groomsmen. She had her cell phone with her all day to get in contact with her about anything we needed. It made me feel completely at ease knowing she was taking such great care of us for our wedding to go perfectly (and it did!). Finally, at the wedding reception Katie was everywhere we needed her to be and helped with any requests we had. She stayed throughout the wedding until the event ended and helped us gather our things for our farewell. I cannot thank Katie enough for all of her support and work on our wedding day. Karey and Katie are a phenomenal team and I would trust them with planning any event in the future.

Katie from Mint Julep was hands-down the champion of our wedding. From the first day she stepped in to coordinate and plan our wedding to the wedding day itself, Katie was the absolute best. She had a solution for any roadblock we encountered and kept the wedding day smooth and enjoyable for us and all of our guests. Such a great experience. We would want Katie involved in planning any future major event we hold in the future!

I cannot begin to thank Karey and her team enough for my beautiful wedding day. My husband and I are both from out of town and Karey, Sarah, Grace, Katie, and the rest of their team went out of their way to meet with us and make us feel comfortable. It is truly a family run business. Karey's husband Mike takes care of the lighting and was our own personal tour guide as we were planning our rehearsal dinner and going to our cake tastings. I had several interesting requests, like a football stadium wedding cake, and Karey went out of her way to help me find vendors that fit my unique vision. Karey and her team were also responsible for my flowers and they were everything I imagined! The day of the wedding her staff were amazing. Katie stayed with my bridesmaids and helped us with a last minute emergency with a torn bridesmaid dress. I cannot begin to thank Mint Julep enough for making it a day I will never forget!

There are no words for how wonderful Katie and the staff at Mint Julep were. We did the day of package and it was hands down the best money we spent on our wedding. Katie thought of everything and anything. She was always there to respond to emails. She took care of contracts and vendors. I was able to completely enjoy my wedding day with out a single worry. She kept everyone on schedule, she helped get a small grass stain out of the bottom of my dress, made sure we ate, and took care of any unexpected circumstances. My wedding was a dream come true and the Mint Julep girls made it that way. I can't thank them enough. I would recommended them to everyone and anyone!

Sarah Lubawski was our wedding planner. She is a true artist in every sense of the word. Your wedding will come to life painted with so much love, creavity, and class. It is hard enough to handle one bride, let alone two. She made my wife and me feel so special and even had incredible ideas on setting up the ceremony where we both got our spotlight walking down the isle. I cannot say enough about this woman. She is amazing, and hopefully you are luck enough to have her make your wedding dreams come true!

The absolute best experience possible from these ladies. Working with Karey is the reason that planning my wedding was the most fun time of my whole life. I looked forward to every meeting with Karey, Sarah, and Karey's husband as they made a stressful time become as stress free as possible in addition to just pure fun! I could go on for days about how wonderful they are to work with, but I can't forget the actual wedding!!! We had Karey's team do the full design and almost every aspect of our wedding - it was PERFECT. They made a gorgeous venue look like I had decorated it with my dream design and the whole day was seamless and just plain wonderful. They paid attention to every detail and made my dream come true. I would recommend Mint Julep to anyone and everyone who is looking for a extraordinary experience from the start to finish.

Karey and her team made all the difference in the world. Everything from arranging rooms for a destination type wedding to managing the vendors to dealing with my mother! the bride and groom were on the West coast and the wedding took place on Maryland Eastern Shore. Karey made it a fun and memorable event.

Hiring Historic Events was absolutely the best decision we made for our Wedding!! We used their full service planning and couldn’t have been happier with Karey and her amazing team!! If it wasn’t for Karey and her team we wouldn’t have been able to pull off our Wedding on Kent Island at my parents house. She and her team literally created a venue from scratch. Her vendor recommendations were outstanding! Karey and her team went above and beyond in every aspect of the entire process.

I cannot begin to explain how AMAZING Karey and her team were. From beginning to end Karey went above and beyond with the planning of my wedding. Everyone commented on how calm I was leading up to my wedding and I can honestly say I was so calm because I had 100% faith and trust that Karey and her team were handling everything! My wedding day exceeded my extremely high expectations. If anyone wants to have the best and worry free wedding, I highly recommend contacting Karey. She is one of the best wedding planners ever!
