The Glue That Held Our Wedding Together

My wife and I had a 10/10 experience working with Bradi at WCO Events. Key West was our destination wedding, which can make planning a challenge. Bradi personally made sure it wasn't a challenge. She utilized her extensive connections in Key West to recommend the best vendors, expertly navigated communications with them, assisted us in our personal planning process, ran errands for us on the day of (we needed someone to go grab lunch while the brides got ready, for example!), and lifted us up at every turn! She has an expert eye for event management, flow, and detailing. She met with us a few times before the big day, hopped on a Zoom call whenever we needed her, and responded to texts and emails very quickly. It truly felt like a family member was managing our wedding, that's how easy it was to trust her skill. We fully recommend!

WCO Events / Kathleen was THE BEST and worth every penny.

I don’t know if I can completely express how happy I was that I hired WCO Events. My planner was Kathleen, and she made the destination wedding planning process smooth and FUN. Kathleen provided so much value to me that hiring her as a planner was easily the best decision we made. We hired WCO at the very beginning of planning, and she helped us sort through venue options and think of details/questions that had never crossed our mind. Every vendor selection was guided by WCO – they have deep knowledge of who does quality/dependable work in Key West and the surrounding area. So many questions and nitty requests can pop up, but Kathleen always responded with such positive and helpful attitude. My budget was ALWAYS respected, and Katleen/WCO guided me to some under the radar vendors, including my florist and officiant, that created spectacular value and beautiful personal touches. Kathleen was a GREAT communicator and always responded promptly and thoroughly. I’m a type-A planner, and even I was blown away by her logistics and scheduling. I was totally relaxed for the wedding weekend and got my wish of “not having to think on the wedding day, just to experience and enjoy.” I have heard stories of other brides that hired planners and weren’t happy with their experience, but I would hire WCO and Kathleen a million times over. Don’t hesitate, for a second, hire WCO (especially Kathleen!), and you’ll be so grateful you did. Now that the wedding’s said and done, I’ll miss Kathleen’s bright emails and helpful advice in my inbox, I wish I could hire her to plan other aspects of my life!

Kathleen is amazing!

I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful Kathleen was at helping me think through all the details and extra complexities of a private home wedding with a bride and groom who wanted to do things a bit different ;) She was always exceedingly professional and kind, punctual, organized, and just an all around amazing person to have on your side for your wedding. If you are looking for someone who will truly take all the stress out of planning your wedding, I highly recommend Kathleen and WCO.
