    Wedding Dinner Party of my Dreams!!

    Our wedding day felt absolutely effortless thanks to Sarah. From the very beginning, she was perfectly organized, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in making sure our vision came to life exactly the way we imagined it. She puts so much care into what she does, and it truly shows in every detail. She listened to all of our wishes and executed them flawlessly, allowing us to relax and actually feel like guests at our own wedding — something every couple hopes for but rarely gets to experience. She may be small, but she packs a big punch! Her energy, professionalism, and dedication made such a huge impact on our day. We truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better to be on our side, advocating for us and bringing our wedding dreams to life. If you’re looking for someone who is organized, passionate, and completely committed to making your day perfect, she is the one. We are endlessly grateful for everything she did to make our wedding so special.

    We hired Sarah as our wedding coordinator after the restaurant manager at our venue recommended her (she'd done a wedding there before). We wanted something pretty simple, just a dinner reception, nothing over the top, and honestly thought we might be able to handle it ourselves. So glad we didn't go that route. Sarah was always punctual, easy to talk to, and diligent about getting us answers whenever we had questions. She asked us things we never would've thought of on our own, kept everything on schedule, and always seemed to know what needed to happen next and where. She had a Google doc for basically everything. Because of her, we actually got to enjoy our own wedding, eating, drinking, talking to our guests, instead of running around putting out fires. Best day ever, zero stress. Whatever kind of wedding you're planning, we'd recommend her in a heartbeat.

    We had an amazing experience with Sarah as our wedding coordinator and our wedding day went off perfectly logistically. We hired Sarah and her team a year in advance as the wedding coordinator to help the last 3 months before our wedding, but we were able to start seeing benefits from day 1. The portal you gain access to will help you meet deadlines and stay organized with checklists, guest lists, and vendor contracts, etc. Leading up to the hired 3 months, we were still able to communicate via emails and the occasional phone call if a situation called for it. Communication was always quick and helpful. We often got tips on what to look for and what we might be able to add. Most importantly, everything was designed and curated to keep us on track and progressing forward. When Sarah/KWE came on during the last 3 months, the team and portal were great at communicating deadlines and responsibilities. Seating, food, decorations, etc; everything was organized to make the wedding day easy and it paid off. The wedding day went so seamless. Our wedding size was 82 and there were no issues that came up. At least that we were aware of and that’s the point. The entire experience was great and I have nothing but gratitude towards Sarah and KWE for making our day seamless and unforgettable.

    It was so wonderful to celebrate with you and Jason. I am so grateful that our tools and processes made you feel confident in planning your wedding, and that the KWE team could take on managing your wedding day so you could enjoy it with your loved ones. Thank you so much for sharing this kinda review!

    One of the best wedding vendors I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Professional, experienced, and so incredibly kind. Sarah is one of those rare people who genuinely cares for their clients, and it shows in the unforgettable weddings she brings to life. You’d be foolish to go with anyone else.

    Sarah was an excellent resource and support partner for us throughout the journey of planning our wedding. She was patient and knowledgeable about the entire process, which gave us peace of mind. Her comfort with our venue, caterer and vendors provided us the utmost confidence that nothing important would be missed on our special day. It turned out to be memorable for everyone involved!
