Kari is the best!

Kari was an absolute gem and SO helpful on the day of our wedding. She set up all the decor I brought and had it packed in boxes at the end so my parents didn’t have to lift a finger. She swooped in and saved the day and figured out how to bustle my dress, among a zillion other little things. She was responsive and fun and kind and just a really huge help. 10/10 recommend!!

Kari is THE BEST OF THE BEST! Our wedding day would not have been as smooth or perfect without her.

I owe so much to Kari! She made my husband and I so comfortable, happy and calm on our wedding day. She took care of everything! She is so professional and responsive. Kari helped coordinate all of my vendors and was there for any questions I had. If you want your wedding experience to be amazing, book Two River Events!!!

New to the area? Must book!

I was new to Virginia a few years ago, and met my now husband here. When we got engaged, we stared blankly at a least of recommended vendors provided to us by our venue.

Being reasonably new to the area meant that I had no idea where to begin with wedding planning. Booking Two River Events and working with Kari was one of the best decisions we made! Our wedding was seamless, stunning and stress free! She knew what was important to us and made sure it was perfect. Kari was also reasonably priced. But let’s be honest, the perfect wedding day is ultimately priceless. As my husband and I look back on our big day, and the time leading up to it, Kari represents a lot of that. She is amazing and I highly, highly recommend!

Phenomenal

If one word can describe Kari - it’s phenomenal. She was the best decision we made when starting the wedding planning process. Kari takes the time and notes to perfect the vision you and your spouse want for your wedding, Having a detailed timeline that goes over every second of the day so nothing gets left out. Even the small things I wasn’t even thinking about. Day of- I wasn’t stressed at all. Kari had everything under control, all moving pieces working in the back ground. If something went wrong, I couldn’t tell you because my wedding day was flawless in my eyes. She is able to adapt and adjust to any obstacle. Kari’s presence just makes you feel calm. You have a professional running your day. My guests still say to this day of how smooth and flawless our wedding day was. If you want an efficient, structured, easy going, calm, fun day- 100% ask for Kari!

Kari is one of a kind!

Kari is one of a kind! An incredible day-of coordinator and an amazing individual overall. Kari was super responsive and immediately calmed any nerves or concerns I had. She took the lead effortlessly, while also letting my husband and I drive the car with our wedding wants. Kari went above and beyond for us on our wedding day. She helped us transport our doggo back to the hotel after our ceremony and never missed a beat! She handled the clean-up after our wedding so swiftly and organized everything into the appropriate vehicles to make sure nothing got left behind. From the moment we spoke over the phone and bonded over chocolate chip cookies to the following days after our wedding, the experience working with Kari was incredible. Cannot thank her enough!

Made the Wedding Day a dream come true

Kari was absolutely incredible to work with. She made my husband and I feel at ease as she worked diligently with us and behind the scenes to make our wedding day amazing. When troubles popped up Kari was on top of it with a solution, even providing additional ideas and decor on the wedding day to better bring our vision to fruition. Above all else she was a fun and caring person to work with. I can't recommend her enough!

Kari is the best wedding coordinator there is!

Kari is amazing to work with and I could not have done it without her! She truly made the wedding experience flawless and stress-free. She kept me (and my family) calm and collected throughout the entire wedding process. She is extremely available and flexible. She gathers all your wants/needs/wishes/desires and executes on them.

A+ Day Of Coordinator

Could spend all day listing out why we loved working with Kari on our recent wedding. She’s extremely organized, funny, caring, and knowledgeable of vendors and small details of our specific venue. All of these traits made our wedding day perfect. We had great vendors as a whole, but it would not have been a perfect day without Kari’s coordination. Throughout the planning process she was extremely reliable and quick to reply and give us advice. Above all, she was honest and put our interests first. She handled getting all required documentation from our vendors to our venue, which was a lot. We continue to keep in touch with her and plan to grab a drink with her whenever she gets some down time back in our area. That’s how much we loved working with her. We can’t thank her enough!!!

Wedding 10/15/2022

We can’t say enough nice things about Two River Events!! From day one, Kari was always very responsive and was quick to answer all of our questions. She has extensive knowledge on all the wedding vendors in the VA / DMV area and always recommended great vendors based on our needs, wants, and budget. She really helped bring the entire day together and there was never a moment of doubt that she’d get the job done flawlessly. We highly recommend Two River Events, Kari is very reliable, professional, and made everything so fun in the process. 10/10 experience!!

Best Planner in the Area!

Kari stepped in for us just a couple weeks prior to our wedding because our planner had to step away for an emergency life situation (it happens!), and she nailed it. She took everything we planned to that point, streamlined it in her format, made a few realistic tweaks to help us with flow, and delivered perfectly. I could not imagine my weeding day with her! Kari is an extreme professional, was with us all day, she was first to arrive last to go and she seemed to have a good time doing it all! I can't say enough or give enough small details and examples why she blew us away. If I could do it all again Kari would have been there from day 1!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
