Kristina was our partner in crime for over two years (thanks to Covid and having to delay for 9 months), and we are so thankful to have her throughout the entire process. It was a difficult time planning and replanning the wedding, and Kristina was supportive, honest and kept us apprised of all the next steps. No matter what we knew we could count on her to bring our vision to life and she was a huge help coordinating with all of our vendors. We had no hesitation handing over the reins on the day of, confident that all the details would come together and everything turned out perfectly! -

Purple Orchird has a wonderful team! Me and my fiancé ended up not going with any kind of planner (we will see if that was a mistake or not) but purple orchid rep, Kristina, was VERY nice and helped me out even when she knew that we weren't going to hire them. She understood my situation and wanted what was best for me. I cant imagine the kind of service they will provide for people who actually give them money! They are fantastic people and if you need a planner, purple orchid are the ones to hire! -

Angelina Sent on 09/30/2019So glad we hired them!
WOW were we lucky to have hired this group! Not only did they keep everything wonderfully organized (a trait I can't exactly boast of myself) but they had great ideas and managed some last minute snags without my or my family ever knowing about it! Jarron is impressively efficient and organized and thought of all the things we hadn't well before the wedding weekend. It was such a relief having Jarron and Katherine around to run the day, organize the table settings, set up the ceremony stage, corral guests into the barn just before it briefly rained, bring our dog down to the reception to say hi and even help procure late night pizza! We are so grateful to them for making the day happen so fabulously!The Purple Orchid, Event Planning's reply:
Angelina,
Thank you so much for your kind words! We had SUCH a blast working with you and Ravi during your special weekend. It was such a joy for us to see the beautiful, colorful and FUN day! It was especially lovely to see two loving families coming together.
Congratulations a million times and please keep in touch! We can't wait to see how your love story continues.
Sending love and laughter -

Incredible Team!
We had an amazing experience with Nikki, Kristina and Jarron on the Purple Orchid Events team. Nikki was our main planner and she was absolutely fantastic! I knew we were in great hands. She was excellent at making sure all the t's were crossed and i's were dotted - making sure every little detail was ready to go and taken care of. We had our dream wedding and it could not have happened with out this team!
Nikki was great at checking in with me as the wedding day got closer to answer any of my numerous questions and to help take care of the vendors as well. I left her all my notes and items that I wanted set up a certain way, and everything was executed beautifully! (even better than I could've hoped for).
The day went so smoothly thanks to Nikki and Jarron - I can't thank them enough and would highly recommend Purple Orchid Events to any future bride. We booked them after my husband's sister used them - another fantastic wedding, which after attending, I knew I could trust this team with one of the most important days of our lives.
Also, they are a delight to work with! They are very kind and very responsive. And they'll make sure your dress train and veil look fabulous walking down the aisle ;)
Thanks for everything Nikki, Jarron and Kristina! Best day ever! -

Whitney Sent on 07/06/2018Kristina and her team (Katherine & Jarron) were amazing! I think my laid back personality frightened Kristina at first as I'm a super procrastinator, but she helped make sure all tasks were complete before the wedding. They made sure my day went smoothly. Zach and I were not bothered with anything the day-of and had the best day of our lives. Kristina took us down to a local spot on the ocean to take pictures. I only have a few from the photographer and they are AMAZING- can't wait to see more! Jerron cleaned up as much as possible, making the cleanup the following day super easy. I would highly recommend Kristina and her crew. Kristina is super organized and experienced, and easy to work with. Thanks so much!!

Patty Sent on 09/27/2014I hired Purple Orchid for only the day-of coordination (in hind sight I wish I had hired her as my complete Wedding Planner!). She was thorough, detail-oriented, and organized during the week before the wedding. She did not need any hand-holding and was independent and professional - exactly what you need on you big day! She coordinated with ALL of the vendors during the week before to make sure the schedule was nailed down and took care of the little details that the bride and groom might overlook. She set up all of the table decorations, brought us appetizers during photos, coordinated first dances and toasts with the DJ, and was there for general support throughout the whole event. She even took care of things when it started to rain (like bringing things inside!) and I barely even noticed that it was raining at all because I didn't have to worry about anything! I can't thank her and her staff enough for the fabulous job they did, and all with a relaxed, sensible attitude which helped to calm everyone down just by being in the room. I highly recommend Purple Orchid Event Planning.The Purple Orchid, Event Planning's reply:
Thank you Patty and Todd- you two were so great to work with!
You looked amazing and it is evident the love you two share. Such a pleasure- please stay in touch. All the best, Kristina and team. -
User1795317 Sent on 09/04/2014My mom suggested that we hire Kristina of The Purple Orchid Event Planning and we haven't stopped thanking her! My parents, my husband, and I can't say enough good things about how beautifully Kristina handled our wedding day (and the planning leading up to it).
From Day One, Kristina was organized, helpful, endlessly supportive, and totally reliable. She thought of things we didn't, and remembered things we couldn't.
We couldn't have been happier on our wedding day. Much of that happiness is owed to Kristina's experience, hard work, and calming presence. We had total faith that she would carry out our plans. She did - in fact, she turned them into a reality that was better than anything we could have imagined. The day was wonderful, and we owe Kristina huge thanks for that.
The Purple Orchid, Event Planning's reply:
WOW, Thank you! I love what I do and especially so when who I'm doing it for people who totally deserve it! You, your fiance and family are so pleasant and welcoming...you two are perfect for each other and I THANK YOU for allowing me to be a part of it.
All the best to you all... sending much love and laughter your way. Kristina -
User2001690 Sent on 01/08/2015Hiring Purple Orchid Event Planning for my Maine wedding was the best decision I ever made. After speaking with a number of different Maine wedding planners, Kristina stood out as capable, knowledgeable, and ready to take on the job. I hired her soon thereafter and decided to go with the “full service” package- and to this day, it was the best “wedding purchase” I made.
Kristina was instrumental in executing the vision I wanted. She listened to what I wanted and was receptive when I explained what I did not want. She was attentive to my style and also came up with great ideas. She gave me the names of amazing vendors, all of whom were in my price range. She kept me on my deadlines and reminded me of my to-do list.
On my wedding day, Kristina was incredible. She took care of all my needs and more. She helped set up the tables, made sure the decorations were perfect, put up signs, set up the escort cards. She constantly checked in on me, brought me sparkling water, and kept us to our schedule. We had an incident where the dock broke with the entire wedding party on it – and she ran around, drying the groomsmens’ pants! At the reception, I actually saw her filling up water glasses! Kristina wanted to make sure it was the best possible day ever and it was. We received compliments from every wedding guest including several “best wedding we’ve ever been to”. It couldn’t have been the wonderful day it was without the help of the Purple Orchid team.
Seriously, do yourself a big favor and hire Kristina. You won’t regret it!
