    Seriously amazing experience!

    Our venue had a preferred list of coordinators that we had to choose from for our wedding so we went with Exceptional Events almost solely for the fact that she had a very basic day of package and she listed all of the services that came with it. For someone that’s never been in a wedding before it was hard to grasp what all a coordinator does, so it was nice to see it all laid out. I didn’t need a ton of help but definitely wanted someone there day of to keep everything under control. After speaking with Kaitlyn and getting an idea of our expectations of each other we decided to book with her. She was super organized, helpful and prompt whenever we had questions and was flexible with us regarding method of payment. Although Kaitlyn was handling everything up until the rehearsal, Allie was our day of coordinator. She was absolutely amazing. I seriously could not have asked for someone better. She kept the timeline on point, came to check on us multiple times throughout the day to make sure we were feeling good, she even helped me pick out and arrange the floral buds I got from my florist for the cake- that definitely was not in her job description! She was super easy going and fun but was able to switch that off and be assertive when family members weren’t paying attention to instructions. She made our day as easy as it could have been and we even got compliments from family members on how awesome Allie was. I would definitely (and already have) recommend Kaitlyn, Allie and Exceptional Events to anyone!

    Kaitlyn and Julia were the ABSOLUTE Best Decision we made for our wedding

    Guys - I will be the first to tell you I was a skeptic regarding day-of-coordinators. I didn't really see a point...and then my venue required one so I went looking. I saw the reviews of Exceptional Events, and of Kaitlyn Satterfield, and I knew she would be perfect. What she and her assistant, Julia, did for me that day is something I will never be able to say enough thanks for. They coordinated with all the vendors in terms of confirming details, she made a detailed timeline and thought of things I never would have been able to. She was kind, personable, and I could tell they both really just wanted to make this the best day of our lives - and boy did they! they kept us on time, helped us deal with tough weather decisions, and ultimately gave us a wedding day beyond my wildest dreams!! I would hire them again in a minute! Literally the best thing I did for our wedding.

    Made all the difference!

    We hired Kaitlyn as our day-of coordinator for the ceremony, and she was awesome. Don't underestimate the power of a day-of coordinator, especially such a professional and friendly one as Kaitlyn. I feel she made our day run smoothly and did quite a lot ahead of the day to make sure things were in place. She definitely knows what she is doing, and I highly recommend her!

    Kaitlyn Satterfield - 8th Wedding Wonder of the World

    I wish there were more stars to describe what a superstar Kaitlyn is!

    I found Kaitlyn through a friend whose wedding I attended. My friend had 300+ guests at her wedding and Kaitlyn and her team planned, organized, and managed her special day seamlessly. After seeing her in action, I knew I wanted to work with her!

    Kaitlyn is easy going, calm, organized, flexible, knowledgeable, professional - and any other positive adjective you can think of. She is on top of everything all the time; just when I thought I was going to lose my mind, Kaitlyn was 3 steps ahead of me. She has a keen eye for design and impeccable attention to detail. Her breadth of experience makes YOUR experience stress free - there is NO task or emergency that Kaitlyn and her team cannot help you manage!

    I truly feel like I walked away from my wedding day with a husband AND a new best friend.

    Best team, best day!

    Kaitlyn and her team made our wedding planning and Big Day so so simple. She was an incredible support during planning, full of good ideas and fantastic resources -- she has a great stock of decorations you can borrow. And she and her team made our actual wedding flawless. There wasn't a single hiccup or, if there was, I didn't know about it then and I still don't.

    Her design savvy is fantastic, everything was gorgeous, and we're getting pretty used to friends and family calling it the "wedding of the century."

    We Are So Grateful For Exceptional Events!

    Working with Kaitlyn and her team was an incredible experience! From beginning to end, Kaitlyn was prompt in responding to questions and sharing details. She worked so efficiently behind the scenes throughout our entire engagement season and really alleviated a lot of stress from my fiance and me. Kaitlyn's staff (Allyson and Lauren) executed our wedding day seamlessly, and it was the best day! We are so grateful to Kaitlyn for her months of work and an incredible day orchestrated by Allyson and Lauren! We would highly recommend Exceptional Events!

    5 Stars for Exceptional Events!

    I would absolutely recommend Exceptional Events to anyone in the wedding planning process!

    Flawless!!

    Kaitlyn and her staff definitely helped make our wedding weekend run perfectly! We hired her as a day of coordinator and she did not disappoint. She was available throughout the entire planning process to help. She showed great initiative and contacted all our vendors to ensure everyone knew when and where to be. She was very flexible when things didn't go exactly as planned and helped troubleshoot quick solutions on the fly. She also has a lot decor items that are available free of cost that definitely helps save you money overall. Our weekend was perfect and she was a big reason why!

    Kaitlyn was a tremendous help. As the mother of the bride, it was so nice to have someone in charge the day of the wedding. Kaitlyn insured that everything ran smoothly, and quickly addressed any problems that occurred so that I could just enjoy the day with my daughter. Her team was courteous and professional. This was certainly money well spent!

    It was wonderful working with Kaitlyn. My wife car across her services and really conducted the majority of the interaction but when it came time for the rehearsal and wedding we had no issues! The day prior and day of went without any issues and the team did all they could to make sure we had any and everything we needed. Even after the event we had help from the team to resolve an issue with the venue. Great team. Great service.

    From the first day we contacted Kaitlyn to even the week after the wedding, her professionalism, sincerity, punctuality, and flexibility was SUPERB. Her list of services were beyond what we expected. She is "hip" with the times (made our snapchat filter!) and is knowledgable without a doubt with her prior expertise - education related and self experience. We requested day-of services, but she was so open in communication with us weeks in advance. She was sincere in simply answering any questions we had when it came to our vendors and even easing my stress level. On our wedding day, her team stepped up and made sure things were done, like making sure we were able to try our specialty drinks, ensuring the flow of the ceremony/bridal party/reception was present, and I was told they put out some fires I wasn't aware of (which is how it should be). She does it all, and with the best rate I KNOW we wouldn't have gotten anywhere else. If you're getting married in North Carolina, Kaitlyn and her team with Exceptional Events will be your best choice if you want the perfect wedding day.

    Kaitlyn was amazing as my day-of-coordinator! I could not have done it without her! She was great to work with and was always there to help or answer any questions.

    Kaitlyn is awesome! I got engaged in December and was planning a July wedding when I hired Kaitlyn. Due to a family illness, I moved my wedding to March 3rd. So with her help, my fiance and I planned our wedding in 5 weeks. She helped with everything from calling my RSVP's, meeting with my vendors, and even tearing rose petals off for my exit when I forgot the sparklers! I am very grateful for Kaitlyn's help. My wedding was PERFECT, and I could not have pulled it off in a month without her!

    Kaitlyn was wonderful! I can’t say enough good things about her. She met with us twice and was super organized in helping us plan. On the day of, she decorated the whole venue using some of her decor (which was an added value) as well as some decorations we bought. Our day went so smoothly and I was never stressed because I would just say “talk to Kaitlyn, she knows” and I could focus on my day and not make tons of little decisions day of. She made sure our timeline was met and everyone knew what to do and when. Kaitlyn definitely helped make my perfect!
