Krystal Made Our Special Day Truly Perfect

We couldn't be more grateful for the incredible experience we had working with Krystal as our wedding planner. From the very beginning, she was patient, attentive, and truly committed to ensuring that our special day was exactly what we envisioned. As an event planner myself, I had high expectations, and Krystal exceeded every one of them.

Her kindness and thoughtfulness throughout the planning process made everything so much easier. She was always available to listen to our ideas and concerns, offering her expert advice while respecting our wishes. Krystal worked tirelessly to bring our vision to life, and the end result was a wedding day that was beyond perfect.

We couldn't have made our day so special without her, and we highly recommend Krystal to anyone looking for a planner who is not only professional but also genuinely cares about making your day as wonderful as you've always imagined.

The best of the best!

Working with Tara was hands down the best decision we could have ever made for our wedding weekend. She is SO knowledgeable, organized and professional - there was never a question she couldn’t answer or a problem she couldn’t solve. She made sure everything about our wedding was absolutely flawless - not only logistically but also aesthetically. Another thing I really appreciated about Tara’s approach is that she knew the best vendors to carry out my style and vision. I truly feel that she assembled our dream team, and everyone involved was AMAZING. We were floored by the talent, creativity and thoroughness we saw. Not only is Tara an expert in her field, she is also immeasurably kind, patient, supportive and FUNNY! My family adores her, and we still (6 months later) talk about how much we miss “Saint Tara” in our lives on a regular basis. The last thing I’ll mention, which anyone can clearly see from the her social media, is that Tara has IMPECCABLE taste. I trusted her judgement on every last detail and had a ton of fun picking out linens, rental furniture, etc. with her and getting her hot take on pretty much everything. She is the best of the best, and we are so grateful for the 14 months she spent putting together the wedding of our dreams.

Perfectly Us :)

Our day was perfectly us :) We worked with Amy for about 6 months prior to our wedding and could not have had a better experience. I will say that we're not the easiest couple to work with and come with a lot of nontraditional ideas and decision dilemmas, but Amy was so patient, kind and knew exactly how to keep us moving forward and checking off the list! Honestly, she made the entire process so easy, allowing us to focus on things that mattered to us most. We had lots of laughs, stressful moments of potential rain, coaching and fun calls together. She really delivered our dream day. Also, I am leaving this process completely amazed at all of the things a wedding planner does ...that go above and beyond what I would have ever assumed a wedding planner does. Thanks for everything, Amy! - Happily married, Chris and Jamie

A dream to work with!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Evan for our wedding day and we could not imagine our day without her. She is truly a light and her calm presence kept everyone at ease the entire day and weekend. Even though we we’re from out of town, I felt like everything was planned perfectly together and cannot thank Evan enough for bending over backwards for us. She was able to make my vision come to light, even the smallest details (like the strawberry water option for guests on a hot day during the wedding ceremony, I still don’t know how that got pulled off!). She had such wonderful advice on every aspect of the wedding from dance favors to how to set up the ceremony, our guests could not stop raving about it all. Everyone needs Evan for their wedding day!

Above and beyond!

I am truly at a loss for words for how amazing it was working with Krystal and Tara Skinner Events. I started working with Krystal about 6 weeks prior to our wedding. I thought I was in a good spot and had all of my planning and vendors ready to go but I cannot believe how much Krystal helped facilitate our wedding vision those last several weeks. There were so many little details we didn’t think of and Krystal made it happen- it made our wedding that much more amazing. Krystal was EXTREMELY responsive and supportive throughout the entire process. It took so much stress off our plate. Krystal took all the responsibility and was the main contact person communicating all the final decisions to our vendors. The final weeks up to our wedding, she made sure everything was in place and no stone was left unturned. She created our floor plan, transportation plan and made an AMAZING timeline for our entire wedding weekend, she never missed a detail!

Krystal and her assistant Summer’s help on our wedding day was beyond exceptional, seeing our vision and venue come together exceeded my vision and expectations times a million. I don’t think I ever saw either of them take a break, they were always making sure everything was running smoothly, they made sure my husband and I were fed and ALWAYS had a drink in our hand. Throughout the wedding weekend we had guests coming up to us saying how amazing they were.

The thing that I will always remember about Krystal is how much she genuinely cared about our wedding, she always had a smile on her face and in the end she seemed more like a friend of ours, I will be forever grateful to Krystal, Summer, and Tara Skinner Events. We had the MOST amazing and fun time at our wedding and our guests are saying the same thing, we owe a lot of that to Krystal!! I wish we could do it again!

Absolutely THE BEST Wedding Planner Around

We worked with Tara Skinner Events and Megan White from their team, our lead planner, and it was everything that I had dreamed. Some guests have told us it was the best wedding they have ever been to and, while biased, we must agree! As someone who attends many events for a living I had a very specific vision and they delivered it exactly as I had dreamed! Truly it was the wedding of a lifetime. They are always available, willing to do what it takes to get you what you need and know all of the best vendors. I am beyond impressed by the experience and give them a 10/10. They are total pros. Megan was so lovely to work with the whole time. I couldn't believe how on top of everything she was. She was great at reassuring us, keeping things in budget, and making sure we felt good about everything. She does this all with three small kids at home and I couldn't be more appreciative of her hard work and kindness. I loved working with this company. I wish I could repeat my wedding over and over again. It was perfect.

Best Wedding Planner - Experience: 15/10

Tara Skinner and her crew deserve 10 stars, not 5! If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further. Tara helped transform my wedding into the most magical, tasteful, fun, spectacular evening. From the planning, coordination, set up and delivery, everything was perfect. Tara made this skeptical bride into a true believer that your wedding is truly the best day ever. I am so beyond grateful for Tara's hard work and talent that went into making this day extraordinarily special. Mark & I are forever thankful. Look no further and do yourself a favor and hire TSWE.

Professional, Personal, Perfection

Where do I even begin for my experience with Tara Skinner Weddings & Events. What a true pleasure and dream. To start, there is not a day that goes by where I don't think back to the most magical, perfect day of our lives. Hannah was there for every step of the way - to answer every question, talk with every vendor and guide the whole process so beautifully. She so eagerly and professionally gave her recommendations and opinions. We could not have been happier with how our day turned out. You know when you see exactly what you want your big day to look like in your head and dreams but have no idea how to get it there? Tara Skinner will get you there and more. We will forever look back and be grateful for Tara Skinner Weddings & Events and they will forever be who we recommend to any brides! A true pleasure!

We love Krystal!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Krystal for our wedding in May of 2021! She was remarkably organized, incredibly prompt in responding to my questions, and extremely thorough when working through the details with me. She was the best asset to my wedding vendor team and the best decision I made when starting the wedding planning process. Not only would I not have been able to plan my wedding as effectively without her feedback, but I would not have been able to fully execute the events of the wedding day itself without her. I highly recommend using Krystal and Tara Skinner Events for any of your event planning needs!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
