Events By Kiersa

ction, I knew the best fit would be working with Jenn from Events by Kiersa. Jenn made the planning process extremely simple and with minimal stressors (of course there would be some nuisances to conquer on my end, what bride isn't stressed when it comes to wedding planning?!) and not only that, but Jenn also provided solutions to any anxieties I had. We made game plans for the possible to the impossible, whether or not they'd manifest into reality; Jenn had it handled. Other than being phenomenally professional, kind, and overall fun to work with, Jenn's organizational skills are impeccable, down to a tee. We worked on filling in each blank in a time-based priority, and I didn't feel pressure because of it. Each meeting provided answers and options, and if there were any answers she wasn't able to provide, Jenn was quick to find them and report back with her findings. As my wedding day approached, Jenn locked in and secured all final details and was extremely thorough with our plan, and most importantly, made sure I was comfortable with the schedule/timing, layout, and checked in to make sure I was more excited than overwhelmed. My husband and I couldn't have had a more perfect wedding, and Jenn from Events by Kiersa is to thank for that. By the end of that day, I felt like I was losing a friend because we had connected so closely! For my next event, I will absolutely be contacting Events by Kiersa again, because I know my party and I will be well taken care of, and treated like family.

elief that Kiersa and her team were invaluable to the success of the event. Having never participated in planning a wedding, we waded in thinking we could handle everything! We soon realized we couldn’t be more wrong. An internet search led us to Kiersa, among others, whom we spoke with about hiring a wedding coordinator. From the beginning Kiersa provided details of her experiences at different venues, in depth and honest budget considerations as well as ways to accommodate the wishes of the wedding couple. She did so in a thoughtful and calm manner as she helped us create a vision for the event. Our daughter connected with Kiersa and while overwhelmed at the thought of planning her wedding, having Kiersa to lead the team lifted her burden significantly. As I had no idea of the roll of a wedding coordinator in all this, I knew we needed assistance but you guessed it, budget was my major concern. Kiersa described her services, most of which we had not considered, nor did we know we absolutely needed! I could instantly see the value of her proposition! We quickly agreed and were off and running. As we began planning the details, we were amazed at how Kiersa was able to keep us organized and on track. Her calming presence and thoughtful problem solving we evident as were the benefits of Kiersa having worked with many of the vendors we used. As the wedding drew near, I was firmly of the belief that the compensation for Kiersa provided the most value for the wedding of any other monies spent! Little did I know that the value really kicked in on the wedding day! Kiersa was right there for everything throughout the day and made sure all of the wedding plans were executed flawlessly. Covering so many small but impactful details, Kiersa’ impact on the wedding was immeasurable.

em she was our planner. She listens to the bride & groom carefully and had great ideas that overcome any barriers we encountered. We can not recommend her any more highly!!! She was a gift to us!

le year and 4 months) she was there to answer any questions my husband and I had. She was professional, offered wonderful suggestions, and we felt she really listened to what we wanted. Most importantly - working with her and her team made the wedding planning experience practically stress free (we live out of state too!! Live in FL and planning a wedding in Asheville). She is a stellar wedding planner. My family and I feel so incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Kiersa. She started out as just our wedding planner, and became a forever friend. We are so grateful for her.

tate venues & local vendors was helpful with the planning and execution process. I am pretty type-A, and was at ease knowing Kiersa was handling all of the coordination, details, & vendor day-of timelines. Kiersa has many wonderful attributes that make her a top tier planner, but I specifically value her calm nature and attitude. I would 100% recommend her for any and all events.

ttention to detail, generous spirit and incredible capabilities were clearly evident.

s and beyond. She was great making our dream destination wedding a reality and provided us many options to fit our budget and vision for the wedding. Would recommend her and Events by Kiersa 10 out of 10 times for all types of weddings and budgets.

for planning calls. Kiersa understands all the little details that are needed to create a successful event. We could not have done this without her. Additionally, we had an outdoor wedding planned and an unexpected thunderstome rolled in right at wedding time. Kiersa quickly pivoted to help move the ceremony inside and coordinated with all the vendors to make our ceremony and celebration spectacular. We would highly recommend her!

perfect weekend. Kiersa made remote planning go incredibly well. She was professional and a pleasure to work with--from start to finish!

ar leading up to our wedding, and we were very lucky and grateful to have the amazing dynamic duo of Jenn and Kiersa both present with us on our big day. When looking back at everything we spent money on, choosing to work with Events by Kiersa was hands-down the best investment we made in the wedding planning process. It was very comforting knowing that Jenn knew everyone in the Asheville wedding planning scene, which made choosing and working with vendors easy and seamless. The high level of organization, communication, and professionalism that Jenn and Kiersa possess is unmatched. We developed so much trust in Jenn and Kiersa that I was not stressed or worried about anything at all on our wedding day because I knew they had all the big and little details covered. As someone who does event planning for work myself, working with Jenn and Kiersa was the biggest reason I was able to relax and enjoy our wedding day rather than running the event on my own. You cannot go wrong with Events by Kiersa if you are looking to plan your special event in Asheville!

ghly recommend her services to anyone looking to plan a wedding in Asheville!

to happen and made it all happen seamlessly. She was so easy to work with - great communicator, responsive, timely, all the things you’d hope for. I 100% recommend hiring her!

to make sure the wedding was everything our daughter wanted it to be, even with Hurricane Ian threatening to wash out the day. Fortunately, it was rain-free, but Jenn was there the day before to make sure that we had alternate plans for the wedding site, planned for outdoors, and to make sure the reception space was reconfigured to accommodate all of our guests in the event they could not use the outdoor space as well. She was with us on the wedding day, guiding us every step of the way. I don't know how many times I said over the last year, "I don't know what I would do without Jenn," and that holds true today. You will be extremely pleased with the assistance you receive from Events by Kiersa. Hire them!

for a Type A bride such as myself – I was relieved to give the reins to Jenn who made everything happen SO smoothly. My husband and I did not have to worry about a thing on the wedding day and she handled all of the details. Jenn had such a calming presence and a “make it happen” mentality. My family and friends kept commenting on how incredible she was. During the planning, Kiersa & Jenn provided a google sheet checklist (that was my saving grace), answered any questions we had and provided insights into vendors they’ve worked with. During the month of, we worked on a flow sheet for the wedding day that I was able to provide to our wedding party and family so everyone knew where they needed to be! For our rehearsal - Jenn met us in downtown Asheville the night before with our party to rehearse and collected anything that was needed . For cleanup, she packed our cars to be picked up the morning after, put my bridal bouquet in water and just overall made our lives so much easier following the wedding. Jenn was absolutely amazing!!! Our wedding day was perfect! If you are getting married in the Asheville area- please book Events with Kiersa!

was absolutely essential. They saved us so much stress and so many headaches making sure that we had everything checked off throughout the planning process. The day of they made sure that everything ran super smoothly and that all our vendors were on the same page. We seriously don’t know what we would have done without them!

could relax because we were in good hands. She knows Asheville wedding scene to a T and has good working relationships with all the vendors. Cannot recommend highly enough.

really paid off... when it came to the day of the wedding we didn't have to think about any details -- just the joy of the wedding. Thank you, Kiersa and team!!!

enn and Kiersa were fabulous. My daughter's wedding weekend went absolutely flawlessly!! These women were the epitome of efficiency, professionalism, calm, and graciousness and had my complete confidence that allowed me to enjoy the wedding weekend rather than sweating even one detail. Planning was enjoyable as well, as they listended to what we wanted and made it happen. I LOVE THEM!!!!!

resence when stress started to pick up. The value of this quality cannot be over-stated because weddings are so stressful, but Kiersa never worried about a thing and was just calming and peaceful and took care of everything. Kiersa was always there when we needed her for advice or bookings, she found so many wonderful vendors (even very last minute!) I didn't worry about a single thing because I had such faith in her team. I cannot stress enough how wonderful this group of people is.

at Biltmore. They were prepared and exceeded every expectation. They were responsive and prompt throughout the entire process, and they were completely invaluable!

hing. On top of that, Kiersa is such a kind, warm person. She was such a pleasure to work with. If you are getting married at the Grove Park Inn - or anywhere else in Asheville - I wholeheartedly recommend hiring Kiersa as your wedding planner.

she was able to help us book the perfect vendors for our day. She is so organized, helped us think through every detail, and is a blast to work with. Leading up to the big day, I had zero stress because of how Kiersa thought through every detail. On the day of the wedding, it went off without a single hiccup. 10/10 would recommend hiring Kiersa as your wedding planner!!!

were still many details to manage. Our day couldn’t have been better. We highly recommend her, and her contacts in the industry.

ng with Kiersa back in fall of 2019. Needless to say, a lot of things changed in that time, including a significant reduction in guest count and moving everything outdoors to be as safe as possible. Kiersa was amazing throughout the process. Obviously, things were in flux for a while and we didn't even know if we could or would move forward. Kiersa was great about talking through our options, getting the info we needed from our vendors (which we had literally booked so far in advance because I am crazy!) and helping us navigate the turbulence of planning a wedding in a pandemic. She has a very calming demeanor which was very appreciated and complimented my anxiety well. In the end, we had a smallish wedding with a lot of safety protocols but also a lot of fun and it went incredibly well as a direct result of having an amazing planner. If you're looking for a planner in Asheville, seriously look no further.

e to travel. We are NC residents but we live on the other side of the state and we knew that being unfamiliar with the area was going to be a challenge when it came to planning. Additionally we are both really busy work wise. Kiersa took care of everything!!! She really took the time understand our vision. She was always available and timely with responses. She was really the cornerstone to our wedding I don't even know how she coordinated everything but our wedding day was perfect & exactly what we envisioned. She connected us to so many incredible vendors & assembled the ultimate wedding team! We could not be happier with the results!!! So whether you are a local or live across the country, small wedding or large Kiersa is your dream wedding planner! We are so grateful for her help!

nd dreams for the wedding and helped put in place a great team of vendors to make it happen. When we needed to change events and vendors, she used her extensive network to help us find the right way ahead. She established her own communications with each vendor to ensure that everyone was on the same page. We were so relieved in the last few weeks to have Kiersa at the final meetings to guide the process and remind us of some details that we wouldn't have thought of ourselves. Kiersa's staff members Jenn and Kristy provided day-of coordination since she had already been booked at other events and they worked seamlessly with Kiersa and us and gave a calm, caring presence throughout. We can't recommend Kiersa and her team highly enough for weddings and other events!

coordinated any COVID-related adjustments seamlessly. Everything went smoothly on the wedding day, including adjusting any last minute changes.

ffered to be her wedding planner. My response…. I had waited a long time to plan my oldest daughter’s wedding, so no thank you! I enjoyed every minute of helping create the Asheville, NC mountain wedding of their dreams; together, finding the venue, caterer, florist, photographer, entertainment, etc. and creating all the little details. But, oh my, what about the BIG DAY? Who was going to make it all come together seamlessly so that we could relax and enjoy this special occasion? Events by Kiersa did just that. Jennifer, our “day of coordinator” hopped on board weeks before the wedding to organize all of the vendors and on the day of the wedding made sure that we could all forget about the details and enjoy every minute. Jenn seemed to be everywhere at once making sure the ceremony site and reception were arranged perfectly as planned while calmly steaming the wedding gown, pinning boutonnieres, and orchestrating a very special first look for the bride and groom. Thank you to Kiersa for having Jenn work her magic for us. The day certainly would not have been so perfect without her.

because of COVID, and she did the most incredible job contacting vendors, brainstorming ideas, and keeping me level headed. Her attentiveness to detail, and creativity, as well as her knowledge on everything weddings made everything so amazing and it was so easy working with her. I would recommend her to anyone, and I know that your wedding planning experience and day of experience will be way better with her as your wedding planner.

said goodbye ... absolutely adore this team and highly recommend them !!! Big hugs and a huge THANK YOU for taking the stress off and making my daughters day even more enjoyable 🖤

on is the perfect balance of laid back, efficiency, and professionalism. Jenn helped make planning a wedding from out of state, and on a shorter time frame, a breeze. She is incredibly easy talk to, and she was very responsive to emails and phone calls. I never felt like I was bothering her with questions or concerns. She has a gift of making a frazzled bride feel more at ease. Most of the vendors we used for our wedding were all at the suggestion of Jenn. She has this easy way of giving you suggestions and ideas while still giving you the absolute freedom to create the wedding of your dreams, which is so important in a wedding planner. The day of the wedding I got multiple compliments from the wedding party of how easy Jenn was to work with. If anything went wrong, I had no idea, she ensured our day ran smoothly from start to finish. We could not have asked for a better wedding planner and we could not recommend Events by Keirsa enough!

single detail on our big day because of them. We chose a venue way out near Nantahala River that is not set up as a venue at all. In fact, they don't normally even host weddings or large events! Kiersa shared our vision for how beautiful the location would be for our wedding from the very first walkthrough. From that moment on, she was steady and confident and planned every last detail. Power, tables, tents, chairs, food, guest seating, layout and logistics were all taken care of by Kiersa and her fantastic team. We were particularly touched when we saw Kiersa personally working to set up everything beautifully the morning of, and out late until midnight with a headlamp breaking down and cleaning up. Kiersa made our time planning the wedding a joy and we will really miss working with her and planning together! Choose events by Kiersa- it will be the best decision you make!

our wedding. When my husband was stung by a wasp walking inside from the ceremony, Jenn was right there with a bag of ice and a plan. I could not recommend them more!

ty demanding jobs) warm, beautiful and relaxed--our dream wedding. Kiersa's sense of humor and sweet demeanor made the whole process truly fun, and her staff was so responsive and helpful. Can't recommend highly Kiersa and her team highly enough. Do yourself and your partner a favor and hire them!

itomizes professionalism, attention to detail, creative ingenuity, and a genuine passion to co-create an unforgettable event. My husband and I truly could not have pulled off such a magical day without her and Kiersa by our sides. I hope my accolades invite you to look no further for a wedding planner; Events By Kiersa is a GIFT to any newlyweds wishing to create the most memorable day of their lives. Gratitude and love abound for these incredible women!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

of our communication was with Kiersa, everyone we interacted with in her office was professional and knowledgeable about our wedding and our specific needs and wishes. Our wedding package was mostly month-of but Kiersa made sure to check in with us throughout the planning process - scheduling lengthy meeting to make sure we were on track - and was always there to answer our questions whenever they popped up! Kiersa and her team went above and beyond the week before and day-of our wedding! They were there whenever we needed them day-of and were constantly checking in to make sure our drinks were full and everything was going the way we wished. Although they were constantly there when we needed them, they also had an amazing talent of blending into the background and not being overbearing. All staff that worked our event made sure they space was flawless when guests arrived - candles were lit, music was playing, food was ready, etc.. We never had to worry about anything! We would recommend Events by Kiersa to anyone wanting a stress-free wedding day!

want at our wedding. When planning our wedding, we knew that the Biltmore would provide us with great vendors to choose from, but we had no idea how fortunate we would be to have Kiersa as our wedding planner. Kiersa went above and beyond for us and provided us with a sense of ease throughout the entire planning process. Many people say that the day of the wedding is stressful, but we are lucky enough to say that because of Kiersa our day was as memorable as ever. She is the absolute best!

had the wedding at our house which presented a lot of challenges and uncertainties, however Kiersa handled all of these challenges with ease. I would highly recommend Events By Kiersa for any event.

lp, from the beginning to the end. Kiersa is very good at sensing what you like and provide advices fit for your requirements and expectations. Every details have been handled very well with her assistance. She also helped us with finding the vendors. She has a high-qualified vendor list that she worked with on a regular basis. The vendors that she recommended were also great and nice in terms of their service quality, attitudes, and professional skills. Kiersa and Jenn are great people to work with in regards to their personalities and attitudes. We definitely enjoyed the experience and developed a good relationship with them. With their coordination, the wedding went pretty well and left us and our families valuable memories. Herein, I highly recommend Kiersa's group for your upcoming weddings.

k with!
