St. Augustine Weddings & Special Events

From our first phone call, I found Karen Erwin to be so organized and so professional. She knew the right questions as well as the right answers for me. Whenever I texted her she would respond quickly when she would be available to talk. She and her staff were willing to do anything to make this the dream wedding for my daughter, and it was! The entire venue had to be changed in the last couple of days and she helped orchestrate this with minimal stress to me. I had a blast at the wedding reception because Karen took care of everything. She went beyond the call of duty when she even had the bride's clothes moved from her room to the honeymoon suite because we ran out of time before the wedding. She kept me calm through this even when we arrived at the church without the wedding rings. No problem. Karen took care of that within minutes. She was a joy with whom to work and I miss her now that the wedding is over.

From a Father of The Bride's perspective: As a businessperson, a perfect event is one that goes smoothly, with no surprises and accomplishes the objectives professionally and efficiently. I know this is not a business event; it is far more important. My daughter's wedding was perfect, and we owe a large part of that to Karen. Everything went perfectly, every detail large and small was thought of beforehand, and on top of that, Karen arranged for a private meeting with my daughter and me right BEFORE the ceremony- a moment I will never forget, and easily one of the most special moments in my life. Thank you Karen.

As the mother of a bride who is a procrastinator, Karen guided both of us with her outstanding organizational skills, patience & professionalism. Though we booked her for "Day Of" services, Karen was available from the moment she was hired. Her top priority was the bride's complete satisfaction with not only the ceremony & reception, but with the entire planning process. She responded to every question immediately. We had regularly scheduled phone meetings for updates on what had been done & what still needed doing. She reviewed every vendor contract, scheduled meetings with vendors, & walked us through every detail at the reception site. The day of the wedding, she & her staff were on site all day with vendors, & with the bride from the church until the couple left the reception (with a solution to every potential emergency covered). An outstanding wedding/event planner makes the entire affair look effortless & enables the MOB to enjoy the special day. Karen Erwin did just that. My greatest compliment is I had complete confidence in Karen's ability to provide the perfect wedding day, and she did. I highly recommend St. Augustine Weddings and Special Events!
