Perfect Day-Of Coordinator!
We also brought in a lot of our own décor and did many of the reception florals ourselves, and Alyssa was so helpful in setting everything up exactly how we envisioned it. Knowing she was taking care of all of that allowed us to fully enjoy the morning without worrying about a thing.
Even though our venue included on-site coordinators, their focus was mainly on venue-specific tasks. Alyssa, on the other hand, was with us the entire day and knew every detail that mattered specifically to us. Her calm, positive energy was exactly what you want on your wedding day. She made everything feel easy, and I honestly can’t imagine not having her there.
Because she handled everything behind the scenes, I never had to stress about the small things. I was able to be fully present and simply enjoy the day, which is something I’m so grateful for.
If you’re considering hiring a day-of coordinator, I cannot recommend Sarah Kathleen Events and Alyssa enough. She misses no details, brings a steady and supportive energy, and truly made our day run seamlessly. You will be in the best hands!
The Best Decision We Made for Our Wedding
Abigail anticipated our needs before we even knew them, handled any hiccups behind the scenes so we did not have to worry for a single second, and made sure that everything we had envisioned came to life perfectly. She worked seamlessly with our families, bridal party, and vendors, and everyone commented on how smooth and stress free the day felt.
Beyond her skill and attention to detail, Abigail’s warmth and kindness stood out the most. She truly cared about making our day special and personal to us. We can honestly say our wedding would not have run without her, and we are endlessly grateful for all of her hard work and heart.
If you are on the fence about hiring a planner or coordinator, do not think twice. Abigail is the reason our day was as magical and stress free as it was. We could not recommend her more highly.
Amazing experience!
Dream Wedding
We loved bri!
She was in constant communication with all the vendors, gave us recommendations, had an amazing vision for all the decor in the room, had a timeline down the very minute for the entire day, helped to clean up at the end of the night, and even helped to fix the bustle on my dress numerous times. I couldn’t recommend Bri enough to anyone considering using Sarah Kathleen Events. She was professional, organized, so sweet and kind, and thought of every little detail. You could tell she is really passionate about her role and genuinely cares about making each couple happy. Our wedding day was so perfect and if any issues did come up, I would never know because Bri handled EVERYTHING. I received so many compliments from my family members about her as well. My husband and I found ourselves saying numerous times leading up to and the night of our wedding saying “thank god for Bri” and “what would we have done without her”.
