    Perfect Planning

    Our wedding went through several iterations this year and Kate was so supportive each step of the way. Due to all of the changes we made, we ended up doing a lot in the last few months leading up to the wedding and Kate helped keep us organized and on track. Every time we spoke to one of our vendors they let us know they were in touch with Kate and how helpful she had been. That was always such a huge weight off our shoulders and speaks volumes about the kind of person Kate is. She will be there for you every step of the way with a genuine smile on her face. We would absolutely recommend Kate to anyone looking to for someone to help navigate them through the wedding planning process!

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you so much Amanda!! You were a delight to work with, despite every crazy thing 2020 threw your way, you still had a positive attitude and smile on your face! I feel very grateful to have been a part of your beautiful wedding. I truly wish you, Chip and your lovely families all of the very best!

    Kate Was Awesome!

    Kate was awesome to work with, as she helped from the beginning to the end of our wedding. She was able to give vendor recommendations, answer any questions during the planning process, and made our wedding day run smoothly. She took a huge weight off our shoulders before and during the wedding, and I would recommend her to anyone in need of a wedding planner!

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    I appreciate it Connor! It was really fun to get to work with you and Kaitlin. I know this year was crazy but y'all still managed to create an amazing wedding day!! Thanks for letting me be a part of it! :)

    Simply the best!

    Kate is absolutely amazing! My wedding underwent some big changes due to Covid 19 and Kate was there for me every step of the way. She was so kind, generous, and helpful with every single piece of my day, and I know I wouldn’t have been able to pull it off without her. I told her my vision and she made it happen! Her recommendations were fantastic and she always seemed to know what I needed. My family raved about her for days after the wedding. I not only had the best planner on my side, but I also gained a friend. She is simply the best!

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Zoe, you are too sweet... you are simply the best (cue the Tina Turner)! I really loved working with you, Robby and your families. Despite all the drama COVID-19 threw at your plans, you remained super calm, collected and positive! I really feel so lucky that I got to meet you and I'll totally come see you in Kentucky once all this craziness is over!

    Kate is a life saver!

    I am SO glad we hired Kate to be our day-of-coordinator. I had no idea what I was doing when I was planning my wedding, and Kate went above and beyond to answer any questions I had and make sure that everything was on the right track. I was a lot less stressed the month leading up to our wedding because I knew she had all of our vendors on the same page and I knew everything would run smoothly. Our wedding day went perfectly and I didn't have to worry about anything thanks to Kate!

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you Nina! I'm so glad I got to be a part of your big day, such an awesome event and you were wonderful to work with!!

    Kate is fantastic!

    If you are debating on wedding planners, CHOOSE THIS ONE! We were married at the NC Arboretum and had Kate as our coordinator. All throughout the planning process, Kate fielded a countless number of my emails so quickly and with such efficiency. She has a lot of experience with so many vendors in the area, which helped make the planning and execution of our big day so seamless. It was also important to me to work with someone who could bring me down a notch! Through all of the curve balls, she had such a calming demeanor, and was able to problem solve quickly and confidently. She is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding in Western NC and beyond!

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you so much for your lovely review Megan! You made my job easy by being so wonderful to work with!

    Top Notch Experience

    Kate was our day of coordinator, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience! She made sure every little detail went smoothly, so we could really enjoy our wedding day. She totally went above and beyond when I forgot to put my veil in before walking down the aisle, and without hesitating, she sprinted back about a 1/4 of a mile....in heels!!...to get it. Fabulous? YES. Hire her!!

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    I love this review, thank you Lexy! I have literally never run so fast in my life - haha! Would do it anytime for you, glad I had the chance to work with you & that the veil moment was captured on camera. :p

    Flawless and Stress-free!

    We worked with Kate this past fall for our wedding at the North Carolina Arboretum in Asheville. She made sure both our rehearsal dinner and ceremony went flawlessly! She was always there when we needed help in the planning process and had great advice! We would recommend Kate to anyone looking to have a stress-free wedding!

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you Quinn! You, Michael and your families were so great and fun to work with. Glad I got the chance to meet you & be a part of your big day! :)

    The best of the best

    Kate was both our pre-wedding contact at the NC Arboretum as well as our Day Of Coordinator and we couldn't have been happier. She was very easy to work with not just because she is kind and attentive, but because she excels in her business. As we talked with vendors we heard from them time and again that Kate is the best. She has the respect of the industry and on our wedding day she proved why. We were wed in the middle of Hurricane Florence. Needless to say, that threw a bit of wrench in our plans but Kate adapted every step of the way and pulled off an amazing event. In sum, Kate's a force of nature! I'd trust her again in a heartbeat.

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you Gabe for the kind words. You, Mary and your families/friends had such a positive attitude that not even a hurricane could rain on your parade! So happy I got the chance to be a part of your big day, thank you for your trust in me! This wedding was a blast. :)

    Highly recommend!

    Kate was our day of coordinator at Trickle Creek Farm and put my mind at ease that day and leading up to it. It's very easy to feel overwhelmed planning and everything that goes on day of and she was great in both aspects of leading up to and during the wedding! She kept everyone on the schedule we planned ahead of time and even gave us a sweet card afterwards which was such a nice, personal touch. Highly recommend!

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you for your review Erin! This was such a gorgeous day & venue! You were amazing to work with, so glad I got the chance to be a part of your big day.

    We would 100% pick Kate if we had to do it again

    Kate served as our "Day of Coordinator" for our August wedding at The NC Arboretum, but she was so much more than a "day of" coordinator. From the beginning, Kate answered our logistical questions and how everything would work the day of the wedding. She was incredibly attentive and quick to respond. Not only did she answer questions we had, but she let us know when she was going to be out of the office ahead of time in case we had questions we hadn't asked yet. As the date approached, Kate worked with our vendors making sure they knew when to be at the venue and that the day would run smoothly. Having Kate work so closely with the vendors was such a blessing and took a lot of pressure off us. The day before the wedding, at our rehearsal, Kate was very patient as some of our party was running late. She was so wonderful explaining how the processional would work best and helping my 'Maid of Honor turned Officiant' understand her role. The day of the wedding we had rain in the forecast. We really wanted an outdoor wedding. Kate was in touch first thing in the morning letting me know the plan and timing of that final decision. We ended up having to move the reception inside, but Kate did a great job making sure it looked beautiful inside and still matched our vision. Once we arrived at the venue, Kate came to me as I was getting ready to let me know guests were arriving and we had to make a decision about the ceremony. She offered umbrellas, and we decided to go for it. Amazingly, as I came down the aisle, the sun came out! I think that must have been another trick Kate had up her sleeve! The rest of the evening went off without a hitch as Kate directed all of guests to the cocktail hour and reception, and some how managed to keep track of us, too. She had the timing to a 'T' but, we never felt rushed. At the end of the night, she already had our belongings in the getaway car and helped my parents clean up. We would 100% pick Kate if we had to do it again.

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Rachel, thank you so much for the thoughtful review! I would 100% choose you and John as clients any day!

    Kate was our wedding coordinator and was amazing! Always fast to respond to questions, she gave excellent advice when needed, and was just very caring and passionate about her job.

    Amazing planner and best decision made

    There are NO WORDS to describe Kate’s attention to detail. She made our special day go perfectly. We were planning to be married outside and naturally the weather started to take a turn a few days before. As any bride would I started to panic that my entire dream vision would be washed away.

    Kate jumped into action walking around with the Doppler on her iPad and quickly regrouped my vendors early in the day. When we entered into our now indoor reception it was amazing and beautiful. She made such an impact on all of our guests!

    More importantly her responsiveness is unmatched. She is incredibly kind, patient and always quick to give a solution. She helped me to relax on what I would consider my most nerve wracking day!

    Even though my reception was moved; having my ceremony outside was still so important to me. She was able to push the ceremony back a little and all of our guests received giant umbrellas and the photos were incredible. People still say how stunning it was a year and a half later!

    Kate knows her vendors too. She can tell you who is a good fit, what an alternate option could be (we were technically considered out of town, so we didn’t have a huge list of people to work with). Her sweet disposition and attention to detail was incredible. My husband still talks about how great her services were, and that’s saying a lot since he only remembers one other thing... the food :)

    Use her, you won’t regret it! She even emailed us and checked on us a year later because we were pregnant! She is so thoughtful and truly I considered her a crucial part of our big day.

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you for this amazing review Sarah! Your wedding was such a fun event, I am so appreciative of how easy going and flexible you and Tyler are. So happy that you're happy.

    Great Planning Services!

    Kate was extremely helpful when we were planning our wedding at the NC Arboretum. She provided us plenty of advice and support when it came to making decisions about location (there are multiple spots to get married there) decorations, and ensuring our guest were comfortable. She thought of everything including using a golf cart for our older guests and making sure there were weather contingencies. On the actual day, everything went off without a hitch. We are very thankful for Kate's help and recommend her to anyone looking.

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you Allison, it was my pleasure! Driving the golf cart was pretty fun - definitely one of the perks of the job. :p Wishing you and Paul all of the very best!

    Great Event Planner for our Wedding!

    Kate assisted us in planning our wedding at the North Carolina Arboretum in 2017, and she was fantastic to work with. Months before the wedding we provided pre-wedding paperwork which helped with planning and stayed in touch through out the planning process. It made things very stress free. Kate was always easy to get in touch with and offered some great advice when needed. The rehearsal and wedding day went smoothly, and Kate stepped in to take care of some last minute minor emergencies (i.e. the power went out for a bit!).

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you Sahar! Glad we were able to resolve the little bumps in the nick of time for your absolutely gorgeous wedding. Your positive attitude was contagious - it was an absolute delight to work with you!

    Kate is great

    We first met Kate in December 2016 when we were planning our wedding. Kate took us all over the NC Arboretum for a couple hours to show us the best spots and the pros and cons of each. Kate wasn't even supposed to be there, she was just finishing with someone else and she was supposed to be off from work but she stayed and helped us out. Kate was very helpful to us in choosing the caterer, musicians, rent for chairs and equipment and in the rental of transportation to the reception. Kate was always very quick to respond to any questions or emails. She had a lot of work to do for our June 2017 wedding date. Kate knows so many people in the area that she is an asset to have help with the wedding planning and day of! We would recommend Kate to anyone.

    The Wedding Kate's reply:

    Thank you for your review, Sean! I am always happy to help, especially with awesome clients like you and Christy!
