    Need an intimate wedding/celebration planner? Simply Charming Socials needs to be your FIRST call!

    Kristine (the owner of Simply Charming Socials) was the perfect planner to guide my husband and I through planning our small, 25-person backyard wedding/Atlanta restaurant sit-down dinner reception at Cooks and Soldiers. Her professionalism combined with her no-nonsense attitude (in the absolute BEST way possible), kindness, and quick wit made her the ideal person to trust with our big day. Her monthly check-in calls helped me stay organized and feel confident that we were on track for everything to get done not only on time, but ahead of schedule. Moreover, she is EXTREMELY detail oriented - no rock was left unturned throughout the entire planning process. She also came up with incredibly creative solutions to various obstacles that came up during planning - for example, we have a shed in our backyard that we were debating having temporarily moved and stored offsite since we our marraige ceremony took place in said backyard. Kristine had the brilliant idea of putting trellises alongside the shed and planting climbing roses instead of moving it - it was (1) cost effective and (2) a beautiful way to "hide" the shed while also investing in our backyard space. Simply brilliant, and something I wouldn't have thought of.

    One really significant thing that I'm most thankful for is Kristine helping me make the call on whether to utilize our rain plan or not - throughout our monthly calls and our walk throughs, Kristine knew that the weather was the one thing that I was most nervous about with our wedding being outdoors. Bearing this in mind, she gently guided me through the pros and cons of whether to use our rain plan when the time to make the final decision came, gave me her professional opinion when I asked, but then let me make the ultimate decision. And she promised it would be a perfect day either way - and she was right :)

    I cannot recommend Kristine (and her amazing team!) enough. 100000/10 stars!

    Ward/Steinfield Wedding 5.20.23

    I cannot imagine a better wedding planner than Kristine. She was omnipresent for 18 months in all the ways you'd want her to be in a hybrid wedding planner/negotiator/couples therapist role. When the big day came, it almost felt weird having her there as a planner and not a guest - that's how close we felt to her by the time the day came. She won't disappoint, plain and simple.

    Simply Perfect!

    Our family had the pleasure of working with Kristine and her incredibly capable and kind team for our daughter's Bat Mitzvah. The plan, design, and coordination for our at-home event was simply stellar. Kristine was beyond helpful in all aspects of the planning - from the entire year of monthly meetings leading up to the event, to the tiny details on the big day. Kristine made sure our event was perfect, that my daughter had a voice in the process, and that everything went smoothly. I highly recommend Simply Charming Socials, and look forward to working with Kristine again in the future!

    The best decision I made for my wedding

    Throughout the entire process everyone kept telling me that the bride doesn't get to have fun on her wedding, that everyone else has way more fun at the wedding than the couple. Well, I honestly don't think anyone had as good of a time as I did. And that is all thanks to Kristine and Jennifer of Simply Charming Socials. They were with me every step of the way and helped me navigate all the intricacies of family relations, guests, vendors, all of it! They made sure that my husband and I came first. And for 2 people who are super uncomfortable putting themselves first, that is worth SO much. Their recommendations were spot on. The whole team is SO amazing! I would 100% recommend Simply Charming Socials to friends, family, and strangers on the street. Simply amazing work.

    Simply Charming is Simply Amazing

    Kristine and team were a recommendation for my sister's wedding in 2020, so when I got engaged a month later, it was a no brainer that I would also use Simply Charming Socials. I spoke with Kristine once a month for year with her sharing vendor recommendation, design ideas, and honestly helping me decide on what my perfect day would look like.
    They are so detailed oriented and left no stone unturned. Each month call ended with an emailed list of 'to dos' to accomplish before you spoke next. Any questions I had I felt comfortable asking and they gave honest, thoughtful answers. I am an organized person with a background in events and when I say you need to have a planner, I mean it. There is so much going on when planning a wedding specifically, having Simply Charming Socials there to check you and keep everything in line takes a majority of the stress away. As for the day of, I had several of my bridesmaid tell me how calm I seemed, and it was truly because I knew everything was taken care of by the team. Jennifer handled everything day of and anything I needed she was there already anticipating it. I would recommend Simply Charming Socials to anyone who wants to be present the day of their event and be stress free leading into it.

    Excellent taste & so chic!

    We used Kristine and Simply Charming for full wedding design and planning for our wedding in fall 2021. Kristine and her team were absolutely amazing to work with! She is extremely professional, organized, and has such great taste and eye for design.

    Kristine helped us plan everything. She had great ideas and was so supportive every step of the way. She helped make our wedding so beautiful! She has really great taste.

    She was extremely helpful with vendors and recommendations.

    We can’t say enough good things about Kristine and her team! 100% recommend and loved working with her!

    AMAZING! 100% Recommend Simply Charming Socials!

    I 100% recommend Simply Charming Socials for all of your wedding planning needs - Kristine, Jennifer, and the whole team were absolutely incredible. They recommended incredible vendors in the Atlanta area, helped me keep to a timeline, coordinated directly with vendors in the lead up to the wedding and on the day of, and supported me in navigating challenges that popped up here and there. Kristine was my main point of contact throughout our wedding planning - and she was ON IT. She was calm, strategic, provided excellent recommendations (to the point where she knew the style of my wedding and recommended save the date and invitation cards on Minted - which were lovely and perfect), was kind and fun, and was truly a pillar of support. Jennifer was our go-to during the rehearsal and reception and she was warm, present, calm, and proactive with everything I or our wedding party asked for. They truly helped my husband and I create the wedding of our dreams and I cannot recommend them enough.
    A huge thank you again to the whole team!!

    Simply Charming is a must for your dream wedding!!

    Kristine, Jennifer and all the rest of her team were absolutely hands down the best decision we made during our wedding planning. She and her team were flawless. We got engaged in April of 2019 and were planning to have our wedding in October of 2020, but Covid had other plans. So we made the difficult decision to postpone until October of 2021. Kristine was there for us every step of the way. Of course it was an emotional time, and she was the peace we needed to help us navigate through it all. She answered all of my silly questions, and helped me think of all the details I did not think of to make our wedding day a dream come true. Whether you use Kristine and her team for just day of coordination, full planning or anything in between you have made the best decision possible. I can't thank her enough for everything and will recommend them 100% to any of our friends and family for any planning or design needed in the future!

    Simply the BEST

    Kristine and her team are amazing. She helped us develop a budget, and source vendors that stayed within the limits we had set. Her creativity knows no bounds, and her vision for our decor and table arrangements was spot on. The entire team is incredibly professional and ready to help with any question or request. Our wedding day was fun and never stressful because Kristine had taken care of every detail for us. I can't recommend Simply Charming enough! They are the best!

    Simply Charming was Delightful

    From the first call with Kristine we knew we wanted to work with her. We were looking for a month-of coordinator that would take charge & give us a sense of ease on our wedding day.

    Unfortunately our original April 2020 wedding was postponed due to covid. During a confusing & tough time, especially for those planning such a big & important event, Kristine was there to support us along the way. She quickly adapted to the unprecedented times, was always transparent and honest, and made herself available to help us navigate unforeseen challenges. I constantly found myself saying, "It's ok, we have Kristine."

    We decided to pursue a wedding in April 2021. We changed things up and had almost a completely different wedding - different location & different vibe - some different vendors. The Simply Charming team was completely supportive & kept us on track. The fact that the Simply Charming team had experience working with our venue & vendors, new & old, gave us an extra layer of comfort.

    Jennifer, from the Simply Charming team, helped coordinate our rehearsal. We loved her immediately. She's sharp, kind & spunky - exactly what you want in a coordinator.

    On wedding day the Simply Charming team quickly came in, helped setup decor & created a warm, beautiful environment. As a DIY bride that over analyses almost everything, having the Simply Charming team by my side gave me a great sense of comfort, one of the feelings you get only from your closest friends & family.

    After a much longer wedding planning experience than anticipated, I'm happy to say that we got married and had a great event with much thanks to the Simply Charming team. The team exuded professionalism from start to finish & provided a calming voice in stressful situations - everything you want & need when planning a wedding.

    Are you a bride? Then run, don't walk, all the way to Kristine!

    I truly mean it when I say that there is NO WAY that anyone is better than Kristine and her team. Kristine guided us through the process with such ease and grace, and we would have been lost without her. In planning a wedding during a global pandemic, I can't believe that she was able to keep me (somewhat) calm throughout the storm. One of the most unique things about her is that she is able to figure out exactly what you like, without knowing much about you. She's a true artist and designer, with a splash of fun! She knew exactly what to do each step of the way during a difficult time, and made sure that we were able to have the happiest and most beautiful day of our lives! I cannot recommend this team enough, and just wish that I could give them ten stars instead of five!

    Incredible Planning, Design, & Coordination

    Kristine and her team did an incredible job planning, designing, and coordinating our wedding. Her attention to detail and patience helped us immensely as we planned through the COVID environment. Everyone, including ourselves, was blown away with the result and the day went off without a hitch. Very highly recommend!

    Detail-Oriented, Flexible Wedding Planning Services

    We made the decision to get partial planning services from Simply Charming about a year before our wedding and are both so happy that we did. I knew I wanted some help with the logistics of planning, as well as design advice, but didn't feel like the full packages I saw at other vendors was really necessary. We ended up with a partial planning package with vendor recommendations, which was the perfect balance of helping me come up with a timeline, checking in with me to keep me on track, and sourcing the most perfect vendors.

    Kristine is absolutely fabulous to work with. She is incredibly detailed and responsive, and helped me come up with the most perfect color palette and design scheme when I had basically no ideas to help her. We received SO MANY compliments on everything from the flower colors to the invitation suite and day-of signage.

    As an added bonus, once COVID hit and we had to make a lot of last-minute reschedules and changes, I upgraded my package and it was 100% worth it. Kristine took over all of the vendor communications and details that I just didn't have the time or the energy to deal with.

    On the day-of, having someone to coordinate the timeline and make sure everything was running smoothly behind-the-scenes so that my family, wedding party, and I could all enjoy the day was absolutely priceless. My parents and our wedding party also had rave reviews for how wonderful Kristine and her team were on both of our wedding celebrations. A silver lining to the pandemic was getting to plan two wedding celebrations with her and her team.

    Simply Amazing

    I could not say enough good things about Kristine and Simply Charming Socials! I was given Kristine's name immediately from a friend when I let her know I was engaged. Kristine was on it from day one. She took time to meet with my mother and me for coffee just to introduce herself before we officially went with her. She had so many incredible connections and recommendations. She was constantly available and extremely organized. She was my wedding planner during covid which was extremely difficult and she was a life saver throughout. She remained calm and always made me feel confident that the wedding of my dreams would come true no matter what. The weekend of the wedding, I realized I could not have a better wedding planner and team. She truly made my wedding come together and it could not have been more perfect. I am so thankful for Kristine and her team!

    Your Wedding's Secret Weapon

    My husband and I had a fabulous wedding day and I can honestly say that it would not have been the same day without Simply Charming Socials and Kristine. After over a year of detailed planning, your wedding culminates in ONE DAY, just a few hours, and you NEED superior support on your side to ensure that your big day is as magical as mine was.

    We booked Kristine for day-of-wedding planning (which I've told all of my bride-to-be friends is non-negotiable, you MUST have AT LEAST day-of coordination). Kristine went above and beyond to make sure everyone (including the MOB) were happy and comfortable on the wedding day.

    Since we booked for day of coordination, a lot of the big decisions were already made, but there were a SHOCKING amount of tiny things that popped up last min to figure out and Kristine was a God send! "Let's ask Kristine" was my favorite and most used sentence in the last few weeks before the wedding....

    "How should we do the chairs?"
    "Let's ask Kristine"

    "How many appetizers should we offer?"
    "Let's ask Kristine"

    "What time should we all get to the venue?"
    "Let's ask Kristine"

    etc. etc. etc.

    With out her support on the wedding day I'm certain that I would have been on the phone all day with vendors (not a single person bothered me with one issue!), I'd also have been a flustered mess trying to coordinate everyone and everything (I was a relaxed, happy, ball of joy

    Absolutely the best experience!!

    f you’re like me and get 6 months into wedding planning and realize you’re no longer having fun thinking about your day, Kristine and her team are 100% for you. I spent 6 months prior to my wedding day working with Kristine through phone calls and emails and every time I talked with her I felt a little bit of stress just dissipate away. Kristine has an incredible ability of thinking through every detail and making sure you are hitting your timelines through the planning process without ever making you feel stressed. She also has an incredible eye for design (unlike myself) and is there to give her opinion on anything you need. A month before the wedding, Kristine leads a final walk thru with all your vendors and after that it is smooth sailing. The walk thru is done with such professionalism and precision you feel immediately as ease. Kristine is a wedding day timeline master! She works with all your vendors and makes sure everyone is coordinated to perfection. Our timeline gave us the perfect day to have fun, enjoy our family and friends, and spend time with each other. If something went wrong on my wedding day, I have zero idea about it and will probably never know. This is all because of Kristine and her amazing team. I can not recommend Kristine and Simply Charming enough for any party planning needs!!

    Incredible experience with Simply Charming Socials!

    My husband I got married recently and I'm not sure we would have survived the planning process without Kristine and Jennifer from Simply Charming Socials. Not only were they both incredibly organized, professional, and accommodating from start to finish, they were such a joy to work with! I had heard from so many brides before me not to expect perfection on my big day, but perfection is what I got! Even when things did go slightly awry (i.e. my bustle breaking near the end of my father-daughter dance, or our Chuppah being too large to move) Jennifer was always there with an immediate (and excellent!) solution. Overall, the women at Simply Charming are simply amazing. My wedding day was more fun and more special than I could have ever imagined, and I have Jennifer, Kristine, and the rest of the Simply Charming team to thank for that. I highly recommend them to anyone needing help with an event!

    Couldn't Recommend Her More!

    When planning our wedding, I knew I needed a strong, detail-oriented Wedding Coordinator to help with all of the logistics and details - enter Kristine from Simply Charming Socials. From the first time I saw Kristine’s website and Instagram (hello, BEAUTIFUL branding!), I knew she was the perfect fit. Once I spoke with her on the phone, I was sold. Kristine made a Type A, hyper-specific bride like me feel calm, laid back and most importantly excited about my wedding day! She took so much of the stress off of my shoulders, and I am forever grateful for that. Because of Kristine and her team’s dedication to my vision, I was able to be fully present on our wedding day and enjoy the best day of our lives. We truly could not have done it without her. For anyone booking a wedding in 2020 (or in the years to come) I cannot recommend Kristine enough.

    Best Decision Ever

    My wife and I were married on October 19, 2019, and we chose Simply Charming Socials to be our wedding designer and planner back in July of 2018. This was by far the best decision we made in planning our wedding. We worked specifically with Kristine as our planner, and she is absolutely amazing! Her attention to detail is phenomenal, her professional connections and recommendations were extremely valuable, and the amount of time and effort she spent helping to plan our big day was more than we could have asked for.

    She helped us in choosing designs, patterns, and colors that went well together. She put together amazing design boards to send to our vendors. She helped us review all our contracts (she even caught a mistake in one that saved us money). And best of all, Kristine helped us by figuring out a way to eloquently add our Golden Retriever puppy into the wedding!

    Leading up to the wedding, Kristine helped to make everything as easy and painless as possible. During the wedding ceremony itself, she was our saving grace! Everything flowed smoothly throughout the night, and my wife and I never had to worry about the timeline, decorations, or vendors. The one snafu at our wedding was out of her control (DJ caught the flu a few days before the wedding), but Kristine handled everything behind the scenes to come up with a replacement through the DJ company. The night went off without a hitch, and she made sure we did not know about the issue until she already came up with a solution.

    We will be recommending Simply Charming Socials to all our friends and family that get engaged in the future. Thank you, Kristine, for helping to make our wedding day one of the best days of our lives!

    I cannot say enough about Simply Charming Socials. Kristine and her team are truly one of a kind! I was an organized bride and had most of my vendors and planning complete when I started looking for a day/month of coordinator. I spoke to over seven coordinators to find the right “fit”. Right away from the initial inquiry, I felt at ease with Kristine and her “can do” attitude, organization, and calm manner. I knew she was the one who would help my vision come to life. She really listens and is very transparent throughout the whole process. Kristine was always available for advice and guidance, and she was extremely quick with responses. I know she had multiple events and weddings that were being planned at the same time leading up to ours, but she made me feel like I was her only bride - wow! No one tells you that the month leading up to your wedding is the most hectic, but Kristine was so helpful through the final details and every step of the way from the final walk through to the day before.

    Throughout the last month, week before, vendor set up, the rehearsal day, and day of, Kristine was in constant communication. Kristine and her team’s execution of our wedding vision and dreams were flawless on the day of. The venue details were exactly and more than what we had imagined. At the reception she kept us on time and kept the events of the night moving, which is so helpful when you are the bride and groom. My husband and I were always being checked on, and we never had an empty drink in our hands. My mother and father felt the exact same way throughout our night and reception. The day after our wedding, a member of the wedding party texted me and said, “ps the coordinator was the best one I’ve seen at any of the weddings I’ve ever been in!!! She killed it!” and my family members and friends have shared the same review of Kristine and her team.

    Simply Charming Socials’ branding is a swan, and it is so fitting. A swan is graceful and calm on top of the water and is paddling like crazy underneath. That is exactly what Kristine is; she is calm, collected and graceful, and she is working like crazy. Kristine and her team do all the hard work in the shadows, and they display excellence and elegance in the open. She is detail-oriented, thoughtful, and kind, and she makes sure that the biggest day of your life is the BEST day of your life and more. Get on Simply Charming Socials’ calendar NOW!! She is AMAZING!!

    The Right Wedding Coordinator Sets the Right Tone on Wedding Day!



    My daughter started interviewing Day of Coordinators in the spring 2019 for her NYE 2019 wedding.

    She did a lot of research, read a lot of reviews, scanned Instagram and came up with some possibilities to interview. She and I met for lunch and she told me about the top 2 and then she stated, “But the next woman is the one who I want.” She said she felt very confident of this woman’s desire to help her achieve her vision, she liked her detail-oriented process and knew that everything would be done right.

    That woman, Kristine Cooke, owner of Simply Charming Socials did not disappoint. Personally, I have planned a lot of parties; black tie events for 100 guests, poolside parties for 120 etc. so I know the energy and organization that must be in place. Kristine has it down to an exact science. She managed vendor meetings, promptly answered emails and texts and did everything in between with precise detail and genuine oversight.

    Kristine has great listening ears; a MUST for a good coordinator. No detail was overlooked. Her team worked in tantum with other vendors seamlessly. No issues, no drama and everything was handled with perfection. She totally got my daughter’s vision and made it all come together!

    Kristine allowed me, the Mother of the Bride, to enjoy every moment of that day only because I knew she would take care of everything beautifully. She personally checked in with me during the 5 ½ hour reception several times to make sure that all was good and that my champagne glass was filled.

    I highly recommend Kristine Cooke, owner, event planner and designer of Simply Charming Socials for all your wedding coordination needs!

    The most perfect day

    If you are planning a wedding, or any social gathering for that matter, you MUST use Simply Charming Socials. My husband and I got married in Atlanta a couple of weeks ago and we live in Virginia. Let me tell you, planning a huge wedding from states away was a huge task but Kristine and her team made every single detail seamless. I tend to be a control freak but Kristine made me feel completely at ease knowing that every idea I had would be brought to life perfectly. Kristine works wonders with stressed out brides, mothers of the bride and every party involved. She worked behind the scenes with all the vendors and made our big day absolutely FLAWLESS. Kristine and her team are just lovely- so sweet, easy to talk to, funny, and organized. No matter the day or time, Kristine answered all my texts and emails and set up numerous calls and really put my mind to rest. I can't recommend Simply Charming Socials enough. Honestly, it would be a mistake for you not to use them for your special day.

    Kristine Is Utterly Amazing! Hiring Her Will Be The Best Decision You Make!

    After our decision to get married, the best decision we could have possibly made was to hire Kristine. She is the ultimate professional and we simply could not have done this wedding without her!

    We had a 200 person wedding at the Swan House/Atlanta History Center and we needed to plan from out of town, which meant that we were concerned about connecting with the right planner. We talked to a lot of people, and Kristine initially stood out through her experience, demeanor and raving reviews.

    Throughout the planning process, Kristine made everything effortless and never showed signs of stress, which was invaluable given that we were out of town. She listened to our wants and needs, yet she was always honest if we failed to consider an issue. It always surprised us how many aspects of planning we would have never considered without her experience, and it made us so thankful that we had gone with the partial planning package rather than only going with the day of coordination.

    On the day of the wedding, Kristine coordinated with every vendor like a well oiled machine. EVERYONE told us that when you get married, you have to expect that something will go wrong procedurally. For our wedding, with Kristine running the show, we can genuinely tell you that nothing went wrong! From steaming the bride’s dress to truly acting as a friend during times of need, she took care of everything. Every vendor knew exactly where to be and Kristine was always somehow present.

    Kristine is a dream of a wedding planner. At the end of this process, she truly felt like family! We will miss our monthly calls with her and if you have not booked her – do it now!

    Hiring Kristine was the best decision we made for our wedding day!

    My husband and I got married just yesterday and I couldn’t wait to write a review for Kristine of Simply Charming Socials. From the moment I inquired with her through our monthly phone calls and the meetings leading up to our big day, Kristine was so knowledgeable, professional, kind, and thoughtful. She took the ideas that we had for our dream wedding and executed them all flawlessly, and gave me so many beautiful ideas of her own that perfectly matched the overall style and aesthetic that we wanted. She was so attentive to us throughout the whole process, and makes you feel like you’re her only bride and biggest priority, which is so hard to find in this industry. By the time our wedding day arrived, she felt so much more like a friend than a “vendor”, and we were so excited for her to be a part of our wedding day. They say that no wedding day is 100% perfect and that there will always be something that doesn’t go as planned, but that wasn’t the case for our wedding day. Because of Kristine’s knowledge, preparedness, and detail oriented mind, not only did everything go exactly according to plan, but our expectations for our dream wedding were SO far exceeded. Seeing all of the months of planning come together into a gorgeous and perfectly planned wedding day was so surreal, and it wouldn’t have been possible without Kristine and her passion for what she does. Hiring Kristine was the best decision we made for our wedding experience, and we are so lucky to have found her. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Kristine!

    A Whimsical Day to Remember

    From our very first conversation, I was impressed by Kristine's wisdom, grace, and her passion for celebrating the most meaningful moments in life. She has an incredible ability to keep the big picture in mind while also attending to all the small and intimate details that make an event so special and personal. I don't know how she does it! She is an incredible listener and was so present throughout the entire planning process, always quick to respond to any text, call or email. So many times I had an idea but wasn't sure how to make it happen and Kristine was able to brainstorm with me and make all the little details fall into place. Other times, my indecisiveness got the best of me, and Kristine was there too, ready to help problem solve, dream up ideas, and create a day that my husband and I will remember forever. In the days leading up to the wedding, and the day of, I was able to actually relax, spend time with friends and family, and focus on the moment because I knew that everything was taken care of, that Kristine and her team had everything under control. The day of, everything went perfectly, it really was just incredible! Everything was seamless. Quirky guest dynamics? Weather? Last-minute changes? If it ever happened, I wouldn't know; Kristine and her team handled everything and my husband and I were freed to live in the present. Kristine so purposefully carved out time for us to just soak it all in, to just breathe and look around at this day we had been waiting for for so long. For us, Kristine did so much more than just help plan our wedding; she created a space where we could savor the days of engagement, focus on what mattered the most yet still dream big during the planning process, and fully live in and cherish the day we'll remember for the rest of our lives. I am so happy that I found Simply Charming Socials, and I will be forever thankful for the gifts, talents, and passion of Kristine!

    Excellent Service -- Even When Planning Remotely!

    June and I were so grateful to have Kristine support us as we planned our wedding.

    We live in DC and were planning remotely which added another layer of stress to what can already be a stressful time. However, when we started working with Kristine, much of that stress dissipated. She was flexible with call/meeting times, provided lots of helpful guidance on design, and kept our vendors (many of whom she knew personally) organized. Although we did not have the chance to meet until the day of (!) we were not worried at all because she checked in with us every step of the way.

    The day of the wedding was seamless and we were able to enjoy our special moment thanks to her. Thank you, Kristine!

    Kristine and her team make the magic happen!

    Kristine is not your average wedding planner. Throughout our 11-month planning process, she was a planner, creative visionary, crisis-manager, therapist, and friend all in one. My fiancé and I had a vision and plan for our wedding that even our parents didn’t quite understand, but Kristine was able to take what we struggled to verbalize and create something that exceeded our dreams and expectations.

    Kristine is already an above-average wedding planner in her ability to coordinate and plan through dozens of logistical obstacles, but where her real gift is, is her design and ability to bring her couples’ dreams to life, and that’s exactly what she did for us. Our wedding was unlike any other we have been to because Kristine took the time to get to know us, enabling her to hone in on what we really wanted as a couple – not just what was trendy or easy at the time. A 300-person, out-of-town wedding was no small feat, and on top of that, Kristine absolutely transformed our reception venue to be exactly what we envisioned. Even two months after our wedding, friends and family are still reaching out to comment on what an incredible weekend it was and that it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to – everything down to the small details (Kristine’s specialty) was absolutely perfect. Furthermore, Kristine is only made stronger by the numerous top vendors who adore her and want to work with her. We were able to hire incredible people (even those originally out of our budget) simply because they wanted a chance to work with Kristine again.

    Kristine truly is the best at what she does, and there is no one else I would have trusted more to make our day perfect. She made us feel as if ours was the only wedding she was planning all year – every call, email, and text was a priority to her. There are a lot of nerves, stresses, and fears going into your wedding, but your planner shouldn’t be one of them. Hire Kristine and Simply Charming Socials and you won’t regret it!

    Want your dream wedding without the stress? Hire Kristine!

    Kristine gave us the gift of showing up to our wedding day stress-free and ready to soak up every moment, as well as walking alongside us during a 5 month wedding planning process. We get to look back on our wedding day with tears of joy and memories of everything going off without a hitch.

    The task of planning one of the most emotional and expensive days of our lives, including hosting 160 people for a ceremony, dinner, and dance, was a daunting and never-before-experienced task. The first couple weeks of engagement, I wasted hours upon hours searching through Google/Pinterest, only to find ideas and vendors that didn’t fit our vision or budget. I knew this wasn’t how I wanted to remember my wedding season! Other than marrying one another, Kristine was one of the best choices we made regarding our wedding. We chose her Partial Planning and Design Package, which was the perfect balance of vendor referrals, design assistance, and planning.

    Kristine is incredibly gifted in providing organization for the entire wedding planning process, providing direction for your vision, extending many creative ideas, referring numerous wonderful vendors, putting budget where it counts, answering all big AND little questions, planning and coordinating logistics for every minute of the wedding day, and executing a plan beautifully. Because she took the time to thoroughly understand our vision for the day, every design idea, vendor referral, and suggestion she gave us was spot on. She goes above-and-beyond to organize vendors not only the day-of, but a month in advance. She is very responsive, incredibly professional, thoughtful, and an excellent listener. She became a trusted advisor and friend throughout the process.

    Our wedding day was a beautiful reflection of our families, values, and our overall wedding vision. We have Kristine to thank for so much of that.

    The BEST day! The BEST coordinator!

    Kristine was referred to me by the event coordinator at my venue after I had been searching for a day of coordinator with no success. I had already taken care of a majority of the planning on my own and honestly thought I didn’t really need anyone for the day of- that I could get away with doing it myself and having friends/family help out. Once I talked to Kristine, not only did I realize how wrong I was, but I realized how much I NEEDED her services. She took over all planning and coordination from about a month out. She sent me a form to fill out with all the details, contact info and contracts I already had with vendors. We had a vendor meeting at the venue about 3 weeks before the big day, where we hashed out a rough outline of the day with some of the vendors (venue, catering and Simply Charming Socials) and went over little details. Unbeknownst to all of us, Kristine wasn’t feeling well at all. She went above and beyond for us even though she was so sick! She never complained or had any delay with any communication. I could not have been more pleased with her and her assistant. From our first phone call, Kristine made me feel so at ease and comfortable with her. She was so incredibly detailed, kind and easy to work with. On the wedding day, she came prepared with a whole apron filled with scissors, string, needle, literally anything I could ever think of or need- which I actually did need a few things. A few strings came loose on mine and my moms dresses- she sewed us right up and you couldn’t even tell! She and her assistant, Jennifer, made my {new} husband and I warm plates of food and ensured that we actually ate them. (It definitely took more than one warm plate!) Kristine reminded me to not be eating during my dads speech, so I wouldn’t be in the background of photos awkwardly stuffing my face. We were able to relax and enjoy the day and night without having to think of anything. Seriously. Everything went perfectly. Exactly how I pictured and dreamed of. I could not recommend Simply Charming Socials more!!

    Kristine is the most exceptional wedding planner !

    Matt and I are extremely grateful to have had the pleasure of working with Kristine and her team from Simply Charming Socials. As a bride that was very intimidated about the whole wedding planning process, she guided me with ease and reassured me with each step. I was most impressed by the team’s ability to work with many critical family and cultural needs, with the utmost of ease and patience. She left no stone unturned and I had no worries about a smooth, fun day!
    Looking back, the day was truly all that I hoped! Beyond that, our family is still raving about all of the wedding events. Needless to say, it has all been unforgettable!
    We could not have accomplished any of this without Kristine and Simply Charming Socials! We would certainly recommend them to anyone for coordinating and design, but more than that- we would overwhelmingly recommend them to those who feel particularly lost and needing of a helping hand.
    Thank you all!

    Simply Charming Socials- Kristine is a DREAM!

    We used Simply Charming Socials for day of coordinating which technically includes very thorough planning starting around 1 month before your big day. Kristine contacts all of your vendors to create a timeline for them to load in/load out so you never have to worry about this on your wedding day and can just enjoy what matters most- celebrating happy times with family and friends. Kristine is such an absolute joy to work with and made our wedding completely stress free! She is always available when you need any help or have any questions and makes sure to cover all the tiny details that you might otherwise overlook without her help. She has a great way of guiding you from one event to the next (going from dinner to cake cutting to first dances, etc) while keeping a calm atmosphere. All of the logistical detailed stuff that I dreaded having to plan (day of timeline, coordinating with vendors, etc) Kristine handles so in-depth that you seriously have no worries throughout your wedding and I think is the best money spent so you can have peace of mind. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone considering hiring a coordinator!!

    Best in the Business!

    Kristine is absolutely amazing, but don't just take my word for it. The compliments I received from other vendors, including our venue, on Kristine’s event coordination is a true testament to how incredible she is. Initially I wasn’t sure that a wedding coordinator was something we would need - but I could not have been more wrong. Kristine is so thorough, and our phone calls and meetings put my mind at ease and helped me feel organized leading up to our event. The day of, she was truly a lifesaver. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing because I knew she was on top of it! She had a timeline nailed down, vendors were all coordinated, and we were all truly able to enjoy our evening with family and friends while she ensured we were all taken care of. Her attention to detail and knowledge of the industry is unmatched - she was truly the best person we worked with in all of our event planning.

    Perfect in Every Way

    There are only great things to say about Kristine with Simply Charming Socials. She was my partial planner and day of coordinator since we had found the venue already. She helped my vision come to life and edit all my ideas down so they were tasteful and impactful. She is detail-oriented, so thorough, genuine, understanding, and amazing to work with. She is incredibly professional, knows the industry so well, you'll feel like you're in the BEST of hands! Her vendor network and resources are amazing. I'm racking my brain how I can work with her again! Best decision I made for my wedding!

    Kristine was incredible!

    Kristine with Simply Charming Socials was more than awesome! She did so many things that made our wedding day run flawless. Aside from telling us all where to be and when, she went above and beyond. She made plates for us, got us drinks, she even sewed up the arm to my lace jacket that I wore for the ceremony when it had a tear in it. She made sure everything was the way we wanted it. She came very prepared with things for the day of and knew what to do and who to contact when things were getting off track. Would recommend her to anyone.

    The best day of our lives

    Where do I even start with how awesome Kristine is?! We used Kristine for month of planning during the final month before our wedding. She was awesome from the start, always letting us know we could reach out at any point, even before the final month. For the final month, she coordinated all of our vendors for us which was something that was extremely stressful for me to even think about and made sure they had everything they needed and knew exactly what we wanted and what they needed to do day of. She is extremely knowledgeable, organized, has a keen eye for detail, and will adapt as necessary. Our day 100% would not have been what it was or run as smoothly if it weren’t for Kristine. I had no stress the entire day because I knew Kristine was at my venue making everything happened and that when I arrived she would walk me through the whole night. We loved everything about our wedding and so did our friends and family.
    Our entire bridal party and both sets of parents couldn’t stop raving about Kristine and how they wish they had known about her for prior events. She was beyond worth every penny spent and we would definitely recommend her to everyone!

    Wow- I do not even know where to begin to say how amazing Kristine is in design, coordinating and overall support. She made our dream come true and made the wedding exactly what we pictured. From the very beginning intro call, to the final meetings she was with me every step of the way asking amazing questions and helping discover the best ways to make all the details come together. We had monthly calls to check in on progression but she was also always there through email to assist me with any detail that was needed. She had amazing referral recommendations which we were so pleased with from the photographer, to the florist, to the calligrapher everything was right on point!

    Kristine is truly an incredible asset and our day would not have been as perfect without her each step of the way. She knew all the right questions to ask each vendor and I even received comments from some of the vendors that they had never seen such strong communication and planning skills. She exceeded my expectations in every way. I would 100% recommend Kristine and her team to everyone looking for help throughout their wedding planning.

    Booking Kristine as my wedding planner, was hands-down the best decision I made! Her expertise, knowledge, creativity, attention to detail, and passion for weddings are unlike any other planner in ATL! She put my mind at ease throughout the entire process. She also went above and beyond to include my father - he's also her biggest fan! My favorite part of my planning experience was the decor and special touches Kristine cultivated to create an original and personalized event! If I could rate her 10 stars, I would!!

    Kristine with Simply Charming Socials is absolutely wonderful. We hired her as our day of coordinator, but really she was in it for the whole month before. She was a crucial part of our wedding coming together and being perfect on the day of! She really made sure that all of our little details came all together, from contacting all of our vendors, to making a timeline, to keeping the actual day stress free. She's amazing. We literally had NOTHING to worry about the day of, which is what every couple's wedding day should be! On top of that, she was just so lovely to work with. She's always smiling and has such an optimistic view about everything. If you book her, you definitely will not regret it!

    I exchanged emails with a few wedding planners when I was ready to book a day-of-coordinator. Many of the ones I spoke to felt like a machine, they didn't bother to understand your needs before providing any information on what their services are and what it's like to work with them. Kristine was not this way! She worked to understand what style of wedding we were going for and our budget of course, she also felt friendly and down-to-earth, while also direct and detail oriented. We booked her for our day-of-coordination as well as some vendor recommendations since we lived out of town.

    Throughout that time she was always responsive and helped us in finding vendor alternates that might be more open to serving our remote venue in north Georgia.

    Then, about 3 months before our wedding, the weight of it all set in and we knew we needed her for more. She worked with us to figure out a plan that made sense for us since we had already done a lot of planning and covered the things we really needed help with. (ie: all the freakin' details!) Kristine ramped up quickly jumping into all the planning I had already done. She honed on our stylistic vision, (she improved it actually) and communicated this back out to our vendors. When we were unsure about preferences, she weighed in with her oppinion based on her experience rather than what she thought we wanted to hear which we really valued - and she was always right of course. The result was the best day of our lives. We felt like we were in such good hands - we literally didn't think for a second about any of the details or logistics and just enjoyed our wedding day. How many people can say that?!

    I can't recommend Kristine enough for wedding planning, design, and styling!

    My husband and I had a fabulous wedding day and I can honestly say that it would not have been the same day without Simply Charming Socials and Kristine.

    We booked Kristine for day-of-wedding planning (which I've told all of my bride-to-be friends is non-negotiable, you MUST have AT LEAST day-of coordination). Kristine went above and beyond to make sure everyone (including the MOB) were happy and comfortable on the wedding day.

    Since we booked for day of coordination, a lot of the big decisions were already made, but there were a SHOCKING amount of tiny things that popped up last min to figure out and Kristine was a God send! "Let's ask Kristine" was my favorite and most used sentence in the last few weeks before the wedding....

    "How should we do the chairs?"
    "Let's ask Kristine"

    "How many appetizers should we offer?"
    "Let's ask Kristine"

    "What time should we all get to the venue?"
    "Let's ask Kristine"

    etc. etc. etc.

    With out her support on the wedding day I'm certain that I would have been on the phone all day with vendors (not a single person bothered me with one issue!), I'd also have been a flustered mess trying to coordinate everyone and everything (I was a relaxed, happy, ball of joy <3)

    Kristine made such a huge impact on our day with only day-of coordination I can't help but imagine how much more wonderful everything would have been if she'd been brought on for full planning services.

    Highly recommended!

    Kristine and Hayley from SCS utterly surpassed my expectations in EVERY way. My husband and I got married in a new venue that was still a construction zone when we booked it - there is *no way* we would have been able to pull off a wedding there without the sheer genius of the SCS team!! Thank goodness we hired them, because it ended up being a dream come true. Everything from asking the venue coordinator about the outlets and power for the DJ, to wondering about load in logistics (all things that my naive wedding mind would have had no idea to ask about) to finding the perfect dream team of vendors to make it all happen, they were true experts and amazing at their jobs.

    Besides being super competent and delivering on all of their promises, I was so impressed with their professionalism and level of service. I definitely trespassed into borderline crazy-bride mode as it got closer, emailing/texting them questions at all hours of the day, and I was always made to feel like my question was so important and they totally got it and were super helpful every step of the way. I cannot recommend Simply Charming Socials highly enough :)

    When I first started planning my wedding, I wondered if having a wedding coordinator was something I even needed. The answer is yes, I ABSOLUTELY needed one, and Kristine became so much more than just a wedding coordinator to me and my mom! If you're not in the wedding business- there are just so many things that you don't realize are going on behind the scenes! Kristine's ability to see my vision, but also be realistic and make suggestions that would work for my venue and budget was outstanding. Her connections in the industry also really helped me score vendors that would have been really hard for me to obtain on my own. Another thing that set her apart in my mind was how available she made herself- especially right before my wedding when things really picked up. In addition, myself, my husband and so many people commented on how flawlessly our wedding day flowed- all because of Kristine and her team. If you're looking for someone who knows this business, someone with impeccable style, and someone who knows when to be calm when others aren't and when to make things happen for your event- you've found her! My wedding would have never been the perfect day it was without Simply Charming Socials!

    Kristine was incredible! We used her and her team for the day of coordinating, but she did oh so much more than that. My mom and I loved her from the moment we met her. She knows exactly what she is doing and was able to put both my mom and I's stress at ease from the first day we hired her. She was so organized, professional, and on top of everything. She met with us early on in the wedding planning process, walked us through everything, and helped us think through all of the details that we hadn't yet thought of in order to make my wedding day as I dreamed of. She was the best investment we could have made in our wedding! Everything the day of went off without a hitch...all thanks to Kristine. She was absolutely wonderful!

    Kristine was amazing! We worked with Kristine for the ‘month of wedding coordination’ and I couldn’t be happier – best investment we made. She was extremely professional, always on time and went above and beyond my expectations. We had a fairly complicated (2 ceremonies and 1 reception in 1 day) wedding. They did a phenomenal job helping me to think through the details for this type of wedding, making excellent recommendations, coordinating all the vendors before the day, and managing all the moving pieces the day of. All of that and they are great people to work with. Kristine’s kindness and thoughtfulness made working with Simply Charming Socials even better.

    My two-year wedding anniversary was yesterday, and as my husband and I sat down to review our wedding photos, I couldn't help but be so thankful for the wonderful gift of Kristine! Kristine helped me to put my dream wedding into action in so many ways. She talked with me about the overall feel for the wedding and created a concept board, which provided guidance for every appointment from floral to photography, she counseled me when I was stressed or couldn't make a decision to save my life, she created beautiful signage for our ceremony, and most importantly she took care of all the little details the day of that allowed me, my husband, and my family to actually enjoy each moment of the wedding.

    Kristine was always professional and attentive. She is genuinely kind and invested in your wedding. Finally, she is creative and has impeccable taste.

    Working Kristine was one of the smartest decisions we made for our wedding and the time leading up to the day!

    Kristine was recommended to us from a family friend. From the moment my mom and I met with Kristine, we knew she was the perfect person to help us plan our wedding. She not only helped with day of coordination but she helped me design my dream wedding. She listened to what I wanted and suggested ideas that went along with what I envisioned. Wedding planning can definitely be overwhelming but she made sure that we took care of everything that we needed to do along the way and she took care of everything else. The day of the wedding could not have gone more perfectly. All we had to do was show up and enjoy every minute of that day and we were able to do just that because of Kristine and Hayley.

    My husband and I got engaged during a very, very busy time in our lives. While we were so excited to take on this next phase of life, we were also nervous to begin the planning process and feared we wouldn't have the time we needed to plan our perfect wedding. Luckily for us, we were referred to Kristine within weeks of our engagement and WOW, what a difference that made! From the moment we first met with her, Kristine was nothing but helpful, prompt, creative, organized, easy to reach, etc. She very quickly understood our design taste and then provided us with the perfect, small list of vendors for each portion of the planning process. We never had to look outside of what she recommended because she was just THAT spot on with every suggestion. In addition to planning the wedding, she kept us on track with all the miscellaneous things like Save the Dates, Formal Invites and Seating Arrangements. My mom and I often felt overwhelmed by the endless list of things to do for a wedding, but Kristine kept us on track and helped relieve our stress whenever possible. She has a confidence and experience about her that calms your nerves. You can tell she's been doing this for quite some time because she knows just about everyone in the business. And if all of that wasn't good enough, she is also just a really great person and friend. My mom and I both loved working with her and I really enjoyed getting to know her on a personal level. Our wedding was truly perfect and we could not have done it without her!!

    My daughter was married at Big Canoe in Jasper GA on 10-15-16. My wife and daughter selected Kristine from Simply Charming Socials as a wedding coordinator. What a great find! This was our first "rodeo" and Krisitine handled the event tremendously well! The pre-planning paid off! We expected "hiccups" along the way, but if they occurred, she covered them so they were invisible to us. It was truly one of the best days of our lives! Kristine not only met with us numerous times before the wedding (As well as numerous Email communications) but was there on the wedding day before us and stayed until we had left. She coordinated all of the team and provided a flawless event. It was a choreographed celebration from start to finish. I only wish I had another daughter to repeat that day again!!!???

    Kristine was a fantastic planner! She was always on top of it, checking in with us periodically and I knew she was just a phone call away to help avoid a meltdown. Every time I talked to her, I walked away with a plan of action moving forward. Her ability to help me problem solve was so valuable in the months leading up to the wedding. The day of our wedding was far more than I ever could have imagined, and she worked so hard with our vendors to ensure everything was in place. When I didn't like the vibe of the music the DJ was playing Kristine took care of it IMMEDIATELY so we could continue the party. She is amazingly professional, straightforward, and very easy to work with.

    I didn't quite know what to expect when I first got engaged but I knew I needed Simply Charming Socials to be involved. I had "liked" them on Facebook and was looking at all of their weddings leading up to my engagement. Kristine's style and aesthetic is impeccable and if all of my ideas were going to become a reality I needed her involved. We decided to hire Kristine for full planning and she far exceeded my expectations. From her wonderful vender relationships, to her organizational excellence, to her top notch communication skills, Kristine is the best there is! A little over a week before the wedding I decided I wanted to add a videographer and Kristine made it happen with ease (or at least what looked like ease to me!) The day of the wedding flew by and I don't know what I would have done if Kristine hadn't been there. We had a few hiccups (with family drama) the day of and she went well above her job description to handle them. She and her day of assistant set up the entire reception and made it look amazing! We handed over all of our decorations at the rehearsal and didn't have to think about anything again. It was such a relief to know that everything was being taken care of by someone I trusted so much! No detail was missed and Kristine thought of things that never crossed my mind. She is also very very crafty and did all of my signage for the reception! Honestly, what Kristine did the day of the wedding was well worth every penny we spent for full planning! Not only did we know where we needed to be at what time Kristine was right there to make sure it was happening! I could go on and on about how wonderful Kristine is and how highly I recommend her and SCS! Hiring Kristine was the easiest and best decision I made in regards to the wedding and I would hire her all over again if I could!

    Kristine and Sydney were rock stars! We used SCS for coordination. Even though we knew we weren't going to deal with them much till right before the wedding, it was almost more important that we trusted them completely so that the handoff at crunch time went flawlessly - which it did! When I met with Kristine, we had great "vendor chemistry" - I was drawn to her style, organization, business sense, and professionalism, and knew we could trust her to do a great job with executing our vision. Kristine also went above and beyond to advise when we hit a few walls during the planning process - she led us to our awesome customer jeweler for my band, for instance. When it came to the wedding weekend, I felt totally comfortable with her in control. We had several DIY projects, and special "features" to our reception that she understand completely without my having to overexplain anything. I was a bit of a perfectionist leading up to the wedding weekend, so it's a total testament to Kristine I can confidently say everything went perfectly and she really enhanced the day by making us feel totally taken care of, and freed up to celebrate like guests at our own wedding!

    Wow! What a difference Simply Charming Socials made for our wedding day! Sydney (and her assistant Hannah) were amazing!! From our very first meeting to us leaving the reception, Sydney was there every step of the way making sure that everything was running smoothly and perfectly. She was super great in coordinating with all of our vendors and communicating with them on a regular basis, even on the wedding day! She was wonderful making sure that we were back from taking pictures, to cutting the cake, to maid of honor and best man speeches, and every other little detail in between. We couldn't have done it without them! We highly recommend their services to anyone planning a wedding (or any other event) - they made our day that much more perfect!!

    Kristine was a dream! I really think that one of the best things we did for our wedding was to hire a planner/coordinator, and I couldn't have picked someone better for the job. She really took my vision (or what little I could vocalize) and ran with it. Kristine was organized, efficient, and maybe most importantly, very calm though out the entire planning and execution of our day. It was such a luxury to be able to enjoy the entire wedding and reception knowing she had everything under control. I really couldn't have asked for more and would work with her again in a heartbeat!

    From the moment we first spoke with Kristine, we knew everything would turn out great. We brought her into our planning process late in the game, but she was eager to help and found a way to support us in the final weeks. Our day-of-coordinator was Megan and she had Sydney assisting. They were absolutely what we needed to ensure a smooth event. Megan was decisive, worked hard, kept things organized, and listened to what we needed and wanted. We can't recommend this team highly enough.

    Kristine was my Day-of-Coordinator for my wedding at the Greystone in Piedmont Park. Kristine and Sydney were a fantastic pair to work with. Kristine is thorough, organized and professional. She also anticipated many of my needs prior to my asking. She was diligent and took great ownership even before the wedding to ensure my vendors were on the same page. She executed the day brilliantly while maintaining perfect composure and keeping me calm throughout the day.
    Kristine was also very organized while guiding my wedding party during the rehearsal (I had 18 people in my wedding party). She was stern and directive when necessary to keep everything on schedule, but she was also gentle and graceful throughout the night.
    Hiring Kristine was one of the best decisions I made while planning my wedding! I would highly recommend her to any bride looking for an organized and professional planner that can execute with precision.

    What can I say about Kristine except that she is AWESOME! I was initially skeptical about hiring a wedding planner as our venue had a very capable Event manager but Kristine quickly demonstrated her value. GROOMS PAY CLOSE ATTENTION - You'll find that as your big day gets closer nothing is more valuable than your own SANITY and reducing the STRESS for your future bride. Kristine and her team deliver on each of these counts. She gave us tips, recommendations, and was honest with us when we had "good" ideas and "bad" ideas about how we envisioned our big day. My wife's wedding dress and our reception band were both the result of Kristine's recommendations. (and my wife was BEAUTIFUL and our band was AMAZING!)
    I've been to plenty of weddings and I've seen the chaos that can happen when one is poorly planned. When our actual wedding day rolled around, we had ZERO concerns about the flow of the day, the vendors, or when and where we needed to be. Kristine and her assistant seemed to be in all places at once handling everything under the sun.
    I HIGHLY recommend Kristine and her company Simply Charming Socials to anyone remotely thinking about hiring a wedding planner. GROOMS - DO THIS...I repeat...DO THIS for your sanity.

    Thank you Kristine!

    Kristine was a key hire for our wedding process. She immediately understood my vision for the wedding day, and helped make it happen. I was so glad to have her throughout the whole planning process. She helped with budget, timeline, décor, and vendor recommendations (which were all wonderful and a very important part of the day). Kristine also delivered on the creative side. She helped with ideas, colors, and executing my ideas into reality! Our wedding day was simply amazing and we are grateful to Simply Charming Socials for all the help!

    Kristine was an absolute necessity in our wedding planning. From design/conception to day-of coordination, she worked with us on the full package that wedding planning entails acting not only as a wedding planner, but oftentimes a designer/stylist, financial planner, personal shopper, negotiator, & even a therapist. We were looking for someone who would support our ideas & desire to make our wedding very "personal", help us make decisions when we were being indecisive, find ways to get the look we wanted while also being budget conscious, and not be afraid to "tell it like it is" when the time was right. What we weren't expecting was to face a complete wedding planning nightmare - which is what it felt like when our original wedding venue fell through & cancelled on us at the last minute, but Kristine had our backs. Kristine was there immediately offering emotional support & a shoulder to lean on, and she wasted no time making phone calls, sending emails, & gathering a list of new venue options to save the day. She truly saved our wedding day in a matter of hours!

    Kristine took the time to get to know us as a couple, demonstrated amazing professionalism when helping us work with other vendors, managed the "crunch-time" of re-planning an entire wedding without a flinch, and delivered an amazing wedding day that we will forever be grateful for! We definitely had a bumpy ride during our wedding planning adventure, but thanks to Kristine & Kelsey, we can happily look back on it all & know that we wouldn't change a thing!

    Kristine, Kelsey, and Carly were above and beyond what I expected in wedding coordinators. Their professionalism, organization, and attention to detail helped our wedding day go more smoothly than I could have imagined. My mom and I had taken on the task of planning our wedding and we reached a point where we just weren't having fun. I realized that wasn't how I wanted to remember our Big Day or the planning process. Calling Simply Charming Socials is definitely one of the best decisions we made. They guided my husband and I through the last crazy month, helped me enjoy the process again, and importantly allowed my mom to stop being "wedding planner" and just be the "Mother of the Bride". Such a pleasure working with them all!

    Kristine was awesome in helping us turn a rough vision into a amazing and memorable ceremony and day! My wife and I knew from the outset that we wanted something different from the norm (or what we perceived to be the norm). We also both knew that neither of us had the time or energy to pull it off without significant help. After speaking with several planners, we knew that Kristine was up to the challenge and could make help pull off our vision.

    During the course of planning, Kristine managed to keep us on timeline and on track. She was relentless in helping us identify and select vendors, and she also helped tremendously in pinning down details like hotels for guests. When something didn’t go quite right with a vendor, Kristine always had an answer or made sure that the vendor fixed the issue. For example, when the dance instructor that was lined up went AWOL, Kristine immediately found us a new instructor who was even better qualified than the first. We were grateful that we didn’t have to spend time, and more significantly energy, fixing these issues.

    Kristine also was undaunted when we explained that we wanted a wedding that melded our different stylistic influences. When confronted with a desire to include a loft space, urban details, Mondrian style art, and mid-century furniture she never flinched, but instead responded with enthusiasm. And she made it happen. She and her boyfriend designed the alter piece for our ceremony. She designed the centerpiece suspended above the dance floor. And her collaboration with the florist and caterer was perfect. She helped us turn a space that was, essentially a big empty room, into exactly what we wanted. Kristine was incredible, and we can’t thank her enough.

    From our first phone call I was impressed with how thorough and professional Kristine was. Our wedding was as perfect as anyone could hope and because of Kristine and Kelsey we were able to enjoy every moment of it. From helping us make decisions, develop a timeline, and give direction on our big day they were absolutely invaluable. I can't imagine how the day might have gone without either of them. Our guests even commented on how attentive they were to everyone, making sure everyone had what they needed.

    If we had it to do over again Simply Charming Socials is the first vendor we'd hire. It took us a while to realize we'd need some help and we were lucky to find Kristine. We had no idea how much we needed her until she started working with our vendors and coordinating every thing for our wedding day. She had a plan for things we hadn't even thought about. We're so grateful that we didn't have to spend the day worrying or running around and could really enjoy the time with friends and family. Simply Charming Socials deserves all the credit for making our wedding so special and such a great success. Kristine and Kelsey are worth their weight in gold!

    Kristine was a blessing to work with! My venue was 8 hours away from where I live, she helped with vendors, decor, and the list goes on. The day of my wedding I didn't have to worry about anything, she made my day perfect!! I couldn't have picked a better planner/coordinator

    Kristine was the perfect wedding planner! she made me feel so at ease. She can do anything you need her to and I think her pricing is well worth it! Even if you dont need help planning, having her day of coordination is so helpful!!! I had no worries with her. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. She is fun, sweet, and easy to work with. Plus she thinks of things that never crossed your mind. I could really go on all day about what a wonderful person she was to work with but, i'll save your time and just tell you to book her now!!!

    Dream wedding accomplished! Thanks to Danielle and her knowledge and experience. Danielle took the time to get to know us and understand the vision we had for the wedding, then she put us in touch with all the right people to make it happen. I can truly say I enjoyed my daughters wedding and had a great time planning it with Danielle. This beautiful dream wedding was easy thanks to Danielle!

    Kristine and her team provided coordination for my wedding day and I cannot thank her enough! She made the whole day run smoothly and allowed me and my husband the ability to relax and not worry about any of the details. Kristine took over communications with all of my vendors and ensured they were well informed of the weekend timeline. I didn't have to stress about how the reception room would look and if things were how I wanted them to be because I had complete confidence that Kristine would take care of everything - and she did! Everything was absolutely perfect!! Even when I had trouble with my dress later in the evening, Kristine was there to save the day and help pin my dress where needed. Kristine was very responsive and promptly responded to all my questions and needs. I honestly cannot thank her enough for all that she did for my wedding day. My entire family was very impressed by the SCS team's professionalism and attention to detail. I would definitely recommend Kristine and the entire SCS team to anyone!!!

    I was married in March of 2013. I had some previous experience with SCS and knew they were exactly who I wanted to use for my wedding day. I planned the event myself but knew I needed someone to man the day and really take charge of the event. Kristine was the perfect person for the job! I am so pleased with the day and how everything went. She was extremely organized and professional. I can't begin to recommend SCS enough. Thank you for your wonderful help and for making mine and Mark's big day perfect!

    Kristine’s impeccable attention to detail and high level of professionalism is what sets her apart from any other planner. Kristine took on my wedding as if it were her own, allowing me to enjoy my experience as a bride to the fullest. Most importantly, I was able to give an idea of what I envisioned on my special day and Kristine executed it in real life through a stunning combination of creativity and originality.

    Danielle knows events from start to finish. She has a vision for the ideas I had but she adds an element of "that special something" that makes her event planning service one of a kind. She and Christine are awesome, fun, kind, sharp and perceptive. After your first consult, you'll see how good these girls are. They're event artists. You'll love your special day as much as we did!

    Danielle Copeland at Simply Charming Socials made my wedding the event of a lifetime. With over 400 guests, I knew that we had an event that was far beyond what I could handle on my own. Danielle swept in and magically made the event amazing, memorable, and most importantly, FUN.

    Throughout my wedding experience, Danielle made consultations and appointments timely and efficient. My vendors knew what to expect, and she helped me take the ideas in my head, translate them to her, and she created an amazing and original decor.

    I tell everyone that Danielle and Simply Charming gave me the most important gift of all--they took away my stress. She is the most valuable piece to the wedding puzzle.

    Simply Charming Socials has been a delight to work with on more than a few occassions. I highly recommend Danielle and Kristine for your next event as they are truly the best in Atlanta!

    They have superior attention to detail and are both rich on their creative abilities. Your vision becomes their vision and they won't rest until every last amazing touch is perfectly planned and executed.

    I know these ladies personally and am deeply offended by the lone negative review that was left previously.

    In light of that review, would I still recommend SCS to you ---> YES!!!!

    I am SO thankful I was referred to SCS by my Director (her daughter was getting married and she could not say enough wonderful things about their wedding planners they hired). I highly recommend them to anyone for any event. They think of every-single-detail. I can't imagine the planning process or wedding weekend with out them. It also doesn't hurt they are super fun to be around and have a heart of gold! Kristine and Danielle are fabulous!! :)

    Kristine and Danielle are phenomenal event planners. I have worked with them on numerous occasions and they have repeatedly exceeded my expectations. They are remarkably organized and have an unparalleled talent for design and concept execution. They have helped me bring my own visions to life, as they have for many of my friends and colleagues. They consistently carry through with every promise and continually handle challenges and hiccups with poise and professionalism. They are kind, caring, patient, and innovative. I would trust SCS with my most valued and important occasion. I irrevocably and unequivocally recommend these ladies for your event coordinating and design needs. Truly.

    I cannot tell you how highly I recommend this dream team! As all brides tend to be, I knew exactly what I wanted but had tons of moving parts, as we were essentially building our wedding “from scratch”—that is, we didn’t pick a venue with everything included. We had to find our own caterers, florists, baker, DJ, photographer, rentals, vintage rentals, etc. And on top of all of that, I am very picky so I had to make sure that I trusted the people who were going to find people to my taste—which the SCS ladies did just that and EXCEEDED my expectations! Not only was I over the moon about all of my amazing vendors, all of the specific creative visions I had Kristine and Danielle helped me narrow down and spent countless (very late) nights on phone calls with me as I hemmed and hawed about this color that, this flower or that, etc. Not only did they do that, but they actually made a lot of the DIY elements that turned out so flawlessly and looked like a million bucks. Besides that, their emotional support was that of a friend and if I didn't have them cheering me on I would have been an emotional mess. Thanks ladies, y'all rock. And you made our day exceptionally special and we will always remember y'all as part of the best day of our lives :)

    These two ladies were an absolute breeze to work with for my wedding! All my questions were answered, problems that arose were quickly worked out, and they made the actual day flow so smoothly and left none the wiser to any mishaps, even to the bride and groom. My package gave me some hands on planning, but when it came to finding a caterer and the other missing vendors, this team really worked hard to find us a great deal for what we wanted within the budget. Everything turned out beautifully and I can't really say anything more other than I'm glad we were talked into working with this team! Big help and so sweet. Highly recommended for future brides out there!

    I am at the beginning of my planning, but Kristine has already had an impact on my psyche! Wedding planning is time consuming and riddled with decisions and details at every turn. After just one meeting, she has already got me focused and back on course. She asks all the right questions; is lovely to work with. And you can tell that she is truly detailed.
    From my exploration, her costs might be on the higher side. But so far, I believe the quality of her service will be well worth it. :)

    Four months before our wedding, our day-of wedding coordinator cancelled on us for health reasons. We were in a hurry to find a replacement as our wedding to-do list was lengthening by the day. At the time, I was very upset about the ordeal, but in hindsight I feel very fortunate that Kristine was the person we were working with on our wedding day. I don’t know whether anyone could have been a better advocate for us than she was.
    Kristine was no nonsense and right to the point. She spoke knowledgeably about her job and what she could offer to us and, recognizing that we had already done a lot of the planning for the wedding, tailored her services to fit our specific needs. We enjoyed working with Kristine because she was 1. responsive to our e-mails and phone calls, 2. organized and on top of the logistics of our event, 3. capable of understanding our vision and bringing it to life, 4. well-connected with vendors, but advocated for us first and foremost, and 5. in control on the wedding day, making sure everyone was where they needed to be when they needed to be there. Kristine did not disappoint, and we were particularly impressed with the grace by which she performed item 5, given the open bar at the reception.
    I’d like to think that since Kristine has been through our wedding, she is now ready for any situation. An incident occurred during our wedding reception that could have ruined the evening for us. The best compliment I can pay Kristine is that I did not realize the extent of the incident because she was handling the situation behind the scenes. When we did eventually figure out what had happened, it was comforting to know that we had someone who was squarely on our side and fighting on our behalf. Kristine is extremely competent and very good at what she does. I interviewed a lot of wedding planners, and everyone tells you what you want to hear when you first start out. This girl actually delivers.

    We hired Danielle to be the wedding planner for our daughter's wedding. We were extremely exited about using Danielle because of her working knowledge of the venue where our daughter would marry. We found Danielle's name in a magazine where she had been a wedding planner for another similar type of wedding that was held at our venue. Danielle's fees were high but we felt like she would be worth the additional expense due to her experience at the venue. Danielle required 3 up front payments and the final payment was to be made on the day of the wedding. We paid Danielle's fees on-time as required by our contract. We are extremely disappointed in Danielle's lack of service and professionalism. We have experienced numerous missed appointments and broken promises by Danielle. Danielle quit planning our daughter's wedding 11 weeks prior to the wedding date. Danielle did not meet with any of our vendors regarding our daughter's wedding. Danielle has not fulfilled her contractual obligations for our daughter's wedding. We would not recommend this vendor for any type of event planning. This has been a huge disappointment.
