    Prompt and very professional

    Kori is sweet and amazing. Kori is Ver easygoing, prompt, and accommodating with her clients. My husband was very nervous in the beginning and she made him comfortable throughout the process until the day of our wedding. He was nervous on saying our vows she gave us a package of different vows and we came up with our own and made it special. I will highly recommend her to anyone

    Amazing Service!

    Kori was such a pleasure to work with! She took our vision of an intimate picnic wedding and made it come true! I loved bouncing off ideas with her and how responsive she was when I needed her advice and insight!

    Wonderful, a GEM

    After Trying to handle all the details of my wedding planning myself, lol, I quickly realized I was clearly nuts and looked for a weds coordinator…finding Kori of KReventplanning was an absolute life saver, GEM! She is AMAZING!!! She was attentive and on it! She made sure everything that was supposed to happen, happen! She worked closely with the venue. We had regular meetings leading up to the day. Morning of she was at the venue, hands on, setting up for us and keeping me posted!! Thank you so much Kori. The day would not have been the same without your touch and presence. I recommend KREVENTPLANNING wholeheartedly.

    Kori Robinson officiated our wedding.

    She was very friendly and understanding. She was also very flexible and goes back and forth with us in terms of questions or anything else we needed. She was amazing !

    Fun and Peace of Mind

    Last year Kori of KR EVENT PLANNING officiated a very small intimate wedding for my Son & Daughter-in-Law. I was so impressed with her attention to detail, professionalism, flexibility and soothing personality, that we hired Kori to plan, officiate and be our day of Coordinator. My Daughter & Son-in-Law did not have to worry about anything and neither did I or my husband. Kori was on top of everything! She ensured we had a smooth, FUN-FILLED day.

    I totally recommend Kori!!!

    Sheer Bliss and Excellence

    Kori was an amazing wedding planner. We relied on her for partial planning of our wedding which we were planning from across the country. Kori had great, high-value, high-quality vendor recommendations for everything from make-up to draping. She worked with us to understand our vision and went above and beyond to make our dreams come true on our wedding day. We could not have been more pleased with the little details she paid attention to on the day of our wedding :).

    Highly recommended

    Kori was so easy and wonderful to work with!!! I hired her as a day of coordinator as I simply just wanted someone to help put decorations out for the ceremony and reception before the event and help clean up after but she did so much more than that. She was the point person for everyone in the wedding party to what was going on at any point of the day and well worth the money! I highly recommend her. She met in person once at her home office and then talked on the phone 2-3 times after. It was always an easy conversation and I emailed her outlines of what I wanted before the calls. She reviewed prior to the calls and didn’t have any questions. Highly recommended!

    Life saver

    Kori was excellent, very professional and easy to work with. She’s a great listener and easy to talk with. She was a total life saver at my wedding, it would have been chaotic if not for her. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made.

    Professional Elopement Services

    I loved it! My fiancé and I called at last minute and she was able to accommodate us. She was very professional and made sure we were comfortable. We were able to choose the type of service we wanted that was most comfortable and pleasing to us.

    I found KR Events online and reached out ... from day one I knew that I had made the right choice. Kori is just so relatable and professional which made the whole process easy. You give her your vision and she executes. She thought of little details that we overlooked which was great. She offered unlimited emails and calls leading up to the wedding which kept the lines of communication open and that is key!!! Day of the wedding Kori made sure my husband and I were good and that we ate and took care of any needs we had. She is awesome!!! I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Kori!! xoxo

    Kori and her team did a superb job--truly and really. We had a very tight budget for our wedding and literally we were at a complete loss for ideas to do something intimate, elegant, fun and laid back all at the same time. Not an easy task at all ! Kori was full of ideas, presented options and even had options within options to make our special day this past July truly a memorable experience for us and for our families! It was a pleasure working with her, and I would absolutely recommend her and her team for your wedding and or other functions. She alleviated our stress, reassuring us along that way that all would be well -- and it was!! Great job and thank you a million times over!!! Stefan & Tanzi

    Working with Kori was wonderful. She knows what she’s doing, she’s very organized and you can tell she loves what she does. There were a couple of hiccups that came up regarding the venue but we didn’t even worry about it because we knew she would handle it and she did. She took good care of us. The wedding day is such a hectic time and everyone wants time with the bride and groom but she made sure we sat and ate and she made sure everything ran smoothly. She set the venue up beautifully. It was everything I wanted and then some. It was a raw space and she made our ideas come together wonderfully. We really enjoyed ourselves, our guests had an amazing time and we received so many compliments on the decor! I would highly recommend her services.

    Kori was a pleasure to work with. The venue we had for our wedding already had two maitre’ds and two attendants but we do not regret having another person helping coordinate our big day. We had a Catholic Church ceremony beforehand and she helped guide us through the whole process. Everyone in our bridal party said she was so great and helpful and it was worth the value of having peace of mind since I didn’t want to worry about any of the vendors or moving props from the church to reception. My husband and I were able to focus on each other and knew everything was in good hands. We hired Kori as a day of coordinator but she was much more than that, she helped review all contracts, attended important venue meetings and did her best to be there for us beforehand and including the church rehearsal. Seriously, she was the best! We are thrilled that our day went by so smoothly due to her level of professionalism and thoroughness in making sure everything was taken care of. Thank you Kori!!!

    Hiring KR Event Planning was once of the best decisions and investment I made during the year and a half long process of planning my wedding. After trying to do it all on my own, about 2 months out I had, had enough and decided it was time for me to hire a professional. From our first meeting Kori put my mind at ease and I was confident that my day would go off without a hitch. She helped me to remain focused and complete a number of tasks I was procrastinating on. Kori was nothing less that amazing on the day of my wedding. She worked tirelessly to make sure everything went according to plan and thanks to her our day was perfect. I would definitely use her services again and would not hesitate to recommend her to my friends and family. My only regret is I wish I had found her sooner.

    Kori did an amazing job as day of coordinator. She started nearly a month before, helping me hash out ideas, find vendors and get a timeline down so the wedding moved well. On the day of, she was there early for set up and to make sure all the other vendors were there on time and set up when needed. She was exceptionally helpful, running interference and coordinating requests so that we could enjoy our wedding without having to worry about the details of making everything work. At the end she helped with clean-up and made sure to box everything up for us to take home. An excellent job all around!

    We had the best experience with Kori for our 2016 Enagement party. Any idea I had she was more than willing to make it come to life. The smallest details were her speciality, we had a large amount of tedious little tasks and she executed them all in a timely fashion. The dessert table, it was beautiful! People are still raving over our desserts to this day. Kori was the best and I can't wait to use her again!

    Failed to deliver on promises.

    At first, I was very reluctant to write this review. I was very excited to support a black woman-owned business, and I admired Kori's tenacious personality. Sadly I recommend not enlisting in her services. In the initial meetings leading up to the day of my wedding, she seemed experienced and confident. She ranted and raved about the praise she received from her clients and all of the experience that she had coordinating weddings. Kori did not deliver the day of the wedding. I think my first clue was when I was feeling unprepared and arranged a final meeting with her 5 days before the wedding. She completly blew me off and said that she had forgotten, but she didn't think we needed to meet because she had everything under control. I wish I had gone with my Gut and insisted we meet anyways. The day before the wedding she ran the rehersal at the venue and was very rude to my bridal party, specifically the groomsmen. She kept raising her voice and snapping at them like they where children. Everyone was just excited to see each other, and that was not the way that you talk to adults, let alone how you speak to paying customers. We are not your daughter's girl scout troop. So many things went wrong on the day of the wedding. Kori promised us that she would be the point person between the photographer and the bridal party. We had asked her to make sure that our first look was private yet all of the groomsmen and family where there and Kori was nowhere to be found. The first look is a moment that you can never get back, and it was ruined. Next, mere moments before the ceremony was supposed to start, Kori came into the bridal suite saying that there was some sort of disturbance and that we needed the string quartet to stay longer. Turns out a large water-filled vase got knocked over, and it needed to be cleaned up. Guests later told me that Kori and the staff were running around like chickens with their heads cut off trying to clean up the mess. I don't understand how the wedding coordinator couldn't fix a simple thing like this, Kori talked a big game to us about how she was good at defusing situations the day of, which is kind of why we hired her, yet I was slapped with an $800 fee for keeping the sting quartet late. Next, I expressly told Kori that we DID NOT want the recipient of the garter toss and the bouquet toss to do one of those weird rituals where the man puts the garder on the lady. We where to have the bouquet toss and the garder toss and end it at that. You can guess what happens next, a weird ritual. I was humiliated and Kori was clueless. Fast forward to the cake cutting, I had an outfit change and went back to the bridal suite to change a few minutes before the cake cutting, to see guests, family members, and others in the bridal suite. Kori has said to us 100 times before the wedding that she would make sure that after the ceremony that she would make sure that only the bride and groom could be back there. As I'm changing into my second dress, Kori comes running in yet gain looking panicked asking, "WHERE IS THE CAKE?". The cake was delivered at 9 am, and it was now well past 9 pm, and Kori was just now realizing that she had forgotten about the cake. Finally, she found the cake and to my dismay, put a sparkler on top instead of the custom made cake topper that I had given her. WTF. 11 pm comes, and we are all outside during the sparkler handoff when she comes up to me and says "it's 11pm, I'm leaving. I put everything in the bridal suite and took a picture of it" then she disappears into the night. A few minutes later, I walk into the bridal suite to see a few items on the table. Kori had told us that she would box everything up including leftovers and drive it over to our hotel. She bragged brefore hand that, "My couples love me for doing so because they don't get to eat during the wedding". Well, she didn't deliver on that either, she just did a poor job and then split. I, HUNGRY, Drunk and tired, had to go around the venue and gather all of my decorations, all while still in my wedding dress. Not the right way to end the night, a lot of my items were lost, including my $400 bouquet that I was going to get preserved and cherish forever.
    After all of this Kori had the audacity to post pictures of us on her websites and social media channels as well as ask me later to write a review on my experience, well here it is. It's a shame that these bad memories will be forever tied to my wedding, don't get me wrong, we had a beautiful wedding, but it was no thanks to Kori Robinson.
