    Karen was my wedding planner and she was phenomenal! During the planning process she was willing to meet with me and work on whatever I needed when I asked. Her attention to detail and organizational skills were so helpful to me in my planning process. She helped me with vendor selection and meetings, with creating invitations, and with the design of my ceremony and reception venues. Before the ceremony she walked me through each step of the day and eased any of my worries with her friendly, energetic persona. I could not have been happier with Karen and her staff! She was there if I had a question or a problem and no matter what it was she came up with a solution. Picking Karen Kaforey as my wedding planner was the best decision I could have made for my wedding! I will definitely be calling her for any future events I plan on having.

    Karen and the whole Signature Events staff are incredible. We planned a 3-day destination wedding weekend with the bride's family in Nashville, the grooms family in Maryland, and the bride and groom in Los Angeles. Karen had to deal with a lot of big personalities and opinions and did so with professionalism, enthusiasm, and grace. She helped us execute a vision, tying everyone's thoughts and opinions together to make it a truly perfect wedding weekend. The whole planning process was so easy and fun, and that was because of Karen. The wedding weekend went off without a hitch- or if there was a hitch, none of us knew about it or cared, because Karen just took care of things. I can truly say NO ONE was stressed at all the day of the wedding, because Karen had us so well prepared! Everything was flawless and I can't wait to work with Karen again!

    Karen and her team were amazing! I couldn't have dreamed for a more professional committed Wedding Planner. Her connections with vendors and time and budget management skills kept me calm and happy the entire planning process. When it came to the design and look for my wedding she was a wealth of knowledge and creativity. My wedding didn’t look like any other I have been to before; it was a true reflection of my style thanks to Karen’s vision. I will absolutely recommend her services to all my friends, she’s the best!

    Karen is such an energetic wedding planner, and we couldn't have done it without her! She definitely handled some behind the scenes "almost" horror stories, but knowing she could handle all of it was such a blessing on our wedding day!

    Karen Kaforey was the best wedding planner ever! It's been almost a year since our big day and people still call me to tell me what a great time they had at our wedding. Every detail was perfect! Karen gave us her undivided attention from the first day we met. She did a great job of turning our vision into something spectacular. I will definitely call Karen when planning any special event. :)

    Karen has a lot of experience working in the industry and knows all the vendors you will need. Her expertise and ability to coordinate all the various vendors made the process go smoothly for me. Thanks to Karen, the process was such a blast! Plus, knowing she had everything under control took away a lot of worry that most brides experience while planning a wedding. I would HIGHLY recommend Karen and Signature Events to any bride!

    Mrs. Kaforey is a well connected professional within and outside the community. The old adage " Your wish is my command" embodies her intent to make your dream come true. She listens to your desires; offers creative suggestions; then makes the final plan happen.

    Karen Kaforey, owner of Signature Events, was invaluable in helping us plan our daughter's wedding this Spring.

    Karen has a great approach to wedding planning: guide the brides and moms with options and suggestions, all the while ensuring each event will be unique and meaningful.

    We were able to incorporate many of our own ideas, food choices and decorative styles within the framework of a large wedding. You won't go wrong with Karen....

    Karen was amazing!!! I found her at the last minute after my first wedding planner had to quit. Karen jumped right in and made sure that not only were all the details taken care of but that I was as well. She was professional and sweet and made me feel relaxed and finally excited about my wedding which turned out perfect. Without hesitation, I would recommend Karen to any bride and be confident that she would do an amazing job!

    I highly recommend Signature Events! My favorite thing about Karen was that she stayed in constant communication. While I knew she was working with other brides as well, I never felt like it for even a moment. She called on a consistent basis with updates and always returned my calls in a timely manner. She had such good relations with so many of Nashville’s top vendors that the planning process was truly enjoyable. I can't say enough about how impressed I was with Karen and her team at Signature Events.

    Karen Kaforey and her team at Signature Events went above and beyond ensuring my wife and I had the perfect wedding. Our original venue was flooded during the Nashville flood, and before we even knew we had to change venues, Karen had 3 more lined up. My wife and I both work long hours, and there is no way we could have been on top of every little detail that arose. I cannot tell you how many emails/phone calls, we received during the planning period, as Karen wanted to make sure we were aware of everything going on. Karen is very passionate about her job, so easy to get along with, and we absolutely recommend her.

    Karen Kaforey is an amazing wedding planner! She has done both of our daughter’s weddings. She worked with each one to create their special unique day, that was truly their dream wedding. She is so very creative and organized and knows everyone, so the resources for all the vendors are ones that she knows and trusts. Best of all , on the wedding day, I had no concerns, no anxiety! I knew that Karen had it all under control. She took care of every detail. Any problems that arose, she just handled … I never even know about them. She thought of special touches and details to suggest and execute. Each of my daughters had very different weddings… beautiful and perfect for their personality. They both felt it was everything they had dreamed of… which is a tribute to Karen Kaforey!

    Karen was a joy to work with - she had very creative ideas for both wedding and reception themes, and we were able to trust that things would be done to our satisfaction...and they were.
    She was able to find venues for both Rehearsal Dinner and Wedding Reception and assisted with negotiations on both dates, times and prices.
    Couldn't have done it without her!

    Karen is a fantastic planner. She has wonderful ideas and tons of vendor contacts. I have never met someone with so much energy in my entire life! She was the perfect compliment to me as a bride, and I couldn't have been happier with how our wedding turned out. I recommend both her services and her bridal store without hesitation!

    Choosing to work with Karen and Signature Events for our wedding was a great decision! She has really good working relationships with many many vendors in town, and has more energy than anyone I have ever met. She works hard for her clients, and helped us develop a vision for both the rehearsal dinner and reception that ended up being absolutely beautiful. We would have been lost without her! I had a stress free wedding day that I was able to fully enjoy thanks to the seamless planning.

    We had a destination wedding. Once we arrived on the property we turned the weekend over to Karen. She kept everyone organized, all events were on time and everything ran perfectly. Some of the best pictures we have were taken by Karen. She began taking pictures early in the planning stages and continued through the wedding. Now we have memories of the whole process.
