Kristy and Shelly were absolutely amazing in the planning leading up to our wedding day and on the wedding day! We booked the DOC Package and were given a to do checklist along wi...
th awesome vendor recommendation. Every time we had a question it was answered promptly and made planning soo much less stressful to have someone to ask and bounce ideas off of! The wedding day was ran on time and all of our ideas came together to make the day absolutely perfect for us and our family and friends. We thoroughly got to enjoy our day without having to worry about anything at all! Kristy and her team went out of their was and above and beyond to make our wedding day better than we could have ever imagined.
I really struggled with writing this review because I always try to give vendors the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, my experience with Kristy Rapp Events was disappoi...
nting from start to finish. I booked Kristy because I needed a wedding coordinator, and Sydonie Mansion requires couples to choose from one of two coordinators on their approved list. I even reached out to the venue to ask if I could hire someone else, but I was told I still had to select one of the two coordinators they recommended.
Before officially booking, we scheduled a phone consultation. Kristy forgot about the appointment, and when we did connect, she was in her car with poor service, causing the call to repeatedly cut in and out. Eventually, the call disconnected entirely. I sent her a text saying I understood she was having signal issues and to just call me back later when she had better service. She never followed up from the call besides for an email of the contract. I thought it was a bit unprofessional, but because she had so many positive reviews, I decided to move forward with booking her.
Throughout our planning meetings, she often came across as very short and unfriendly. Then, the day before my walkthrough meeting at Sydonie Mansion, she texted me saying she had an “emergency” and would not be able to attend, but assured me that her assistant would be there instead. My mom had flown into town specifically so we could both attend the walkthrough and meet Kristy, so finding out at the last minute that she would not be there was disappointing. Kristy did attend the rehearsal, but once again, she seemed very short and unfriendly. In fact, several members of my family commented on her demeanor and felt she was not particularly welcoming.
Then came my wedding day. While getting ready in the bridal suite, I needed to speak with Kristy about something important. She was nowhere to be found. I called her and received no answer. A minute later, she texted asking if I needed something. The answer was yes… I needed my wedding coordinator, but she wasn’t there.
I later learned that another “emergency” had come up, and once again, I was told not to worry because her assistant and another person filling in would be handling everything. I want to be clear that Shelly and Stacey were wonderful and worked very hard throughout the day. The issues that arose were not their fault. It was obvious they were doing their best with the information they had. The problem was that they were not properly informed about the details Kristy and I had previously discussed. They were not set up for success.
I completely understand that emergencies happen. However, it is difficult to ignore the fact that emergencies occurred on both days Kristy was expected to be present. Combined with the other experiences and interactions we had throughout the planning process, it left me with serious concerns. Overall, I was very disappointed with the service we received. I genuinely do not feel that the level of service matched the amount we paid, which is frustrating and unsettling. This experience was not what we expected, and if I could go back, I would have chosen the other coordinator option available through the venue.
At the end of the day, this was our wedding, one of the most important days of our lives. We simply hoped for better communication, professionalism, and support. Unfortunately, we were left unsatisfied with our experience.
We got married about 3 weeks ago, Kristy was our wedding coordinator. She was great! I had a very specific vision and she really brought my vision to fruition. Everything was perf...
ect, and she made sure everything flowed perfectly, I didn’t have to worry about a thing! I had the most peaceful wedding.
We used Kristy for full planning for our out-of-state destination wedding and I genuinely could not have done the wedding without her! We got married at the Sydonie Mansion, so we ...
needed guidance with choosing every single vendor, and Kristy was always there to steer us in the right direction with great, genuine advice. During the planning process, I literally would feel my stress melt away every time I had a check-in call with Kristy - it almost started feeling like mini therapy sessions lol!! As for the wedding day itself, I couldn't even tell you if anything went wrong because Kristy handled EVERYTHING! She made the day flow exceptionally, and she constantly checked in with me, making me feel of utmost importance. Kristy's assistant Shelley was just as fabulous as she was - their energy and attention to detail were instrumental in making our wedding day perfect. Thank you thank you!!!
Kristy was absolutely phenomenal honestly, she went above and beyond anything we could have expected. While technically hired for “day-of” coordination, she did so much more than t...
hat in the months, weeks and days leading up to the wedding, stepping in with guidance, organization, and calm, confident support that made all the difference.
Thanks to her and her assistant Shelly , our wedding day was completely stress-free. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing everything flowed perfectly, every detail was handled with care, and we were free to truly enjoy the moment. From vendor coordination to timeline management to last-minute problem-solving (some of which we probably never even knew about!), she had it all covered.
We received so many compliments on how smoothly the day went, and that’s 100% thanks to her. She was professional, warm, and incredibly organized, truly the kind of person you want in charge when it matters most.
If you're looking for a coordinator who will not only deliver on the day of, but also step up and support you like a true planning partner, look no further. She made our wedding feel effortless, and we are endlessly grateful.
I can’t thank Kristy and Shelly enough for all their hard work in making our wedding day absolutely perfect. Kristy was more than just a coordinator — she went above and beyond by ...
providing a ton of fantastic vendor recommendations, and she was always available to offer advice and guidance. She even scheduled two in-person meetings with us to make sure every detail was covered.
As a self-admitted procrastinator, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to get everything together in time, but Kristy and Shelly were so reassuring throughout the process. They made me feel confident that everything would turn out great — and it did, thanks to their meticulous planning and attention to detail.
On the big day, everything went seamlessly. I didn’t have to worry about a thing because Shelly was an absolute rockstar! She not only made sure everything ran smoothly during the ceremony and reception but also helped us with the rehearsal, ensuring we were all prepared and confident. We received so many compliments from our guests about how organized and smooth the day was, and that’s all thanks to Shelly’s hard work.
I’m so grateful for Kristy and Shelly’s support and for everything they did to make our wedding day stress-free and beautiful. If you're looking for a coordinator who truly cares and makes magic happen, look no further!
I could not have pulled off my wedding without all of Kristy’s help. She perfected curated all of the small details and made everything flow so perfectly. I can’t remember anything...
that went wrong and if it did she certainly handled it so my groom and I could have the best day. Thank you again so much Kristy!!
Kristy is a master at her craft! My husband & I planned our wedding from out of state & Kristy made everything come together flawlessly. Her full package is definitely worth it. He...
r professionalism, organization and dedication to our wedding day truly showed. Every meeting we had leading up to the wedding made us feel at ease, despite us feeling like we were always behind. Kristy took her time with EVERY detail we wanted and always made us feel like a priority, despite all the weddings she coordinated before our wedding. She was calm and accommodating with last minute changes the day of the wedding and ensured everything ran smoothly. Kristy is truly a saint, and we couldn’t have asked for a sweeter and experienced wedding coordinator.
I cannot express how thankful I am for Kristy’s help and expertise throughout the planning process. From reviewing contracts to answering every question under the sun, Kristy reall...
y knows her stuff. She is sooo organized, everything she was involved with went to plan (and if it didn’t, I had no idea! Which is just as good in my book!).
She helped our wedding day run so smoothly and she was able to keep track of the many items we brought with us for decor etc and made sure everything made it back to us at the end of the night. She paid attention to the every small detail we discussed with her during the planning process and made sure our vision came to life.
It’s funny to think that at the beginning of the wedding planning process, I wondered if it was worth it to have a coordinator. I can confidently say YES it’s worth every penny. I cannot imagine not having a coordinator now that I’ve had my wedding. Do yourself a favor and hire Kristy, you won’t regret it 😊
My fiance and I truly say we could not have planned this wedding without the help and guidance of Kristy. The planning timeline she sends you is top notch. I followed that religiou...
sly and was done planning my wedding 2 weeks prior! It was so nice to not be stressed out that close to the wedding. Meeting with Kristy is always so great, she knows exactly what to ask, help you plan, and guide you with any question you have. The day of the wedding she took care of everything and I felt so at ease knowing Kristy was there to help with anything that came up. She truly brought my wedding vision to life and I am SO grateful I booked her to help with my wedding. Plus her prices are amazing for everything she assists with!!
Kristy was so great in helping execute the vision for our wedding and providing us with tips or other alternative suggestions to get what we wanted. Plus, on the day of the wedding...
she made sure everything went smoothly without us having to worry about a single thing!
I am so happy we chose Kristy as our wedding coordinator! She did an amazing job guiding me throughout the planning process by providing personalized to-do lists and helpful inform...
ation/resources relevant to my area, such as vendor recommendations. There were so many little details that I would have never thought of if it weren't for her expertise. She was personable, responsive, and knowledgeable.
Our wedding day seemed to go perfectly - either because it was planned out in such detail that everything was accounted for, or because Kristy was able to identify and correct any issues that came up without me needing to be involved. Either way, we owe that to Kristy (and her assistant!). She was attentive to us but was also able to direct and coordinate all of the vendors. She did a fantastic job of setting all of my décor out exactly as I'd envisioned.
Kristy is organized, talented, and professional and the expertise she offers with her services are invaluable! I would recommend Kristy to anyone planning a wedding!
We did our due diligence and researched recommendations for a wedding planner to help make our special day become a reality. We found Kristy and submitted an inquiry via wedding wi...
re. She was prompt to respond and set up an initial consultation via phone. She was warm, upbeat and very easy to talk to. She had answers to all of our questions and seemed to know exactly how to help our dreams come true. After about a week of comparing and communicating with other planners, it was clear that Kristy was the one for us. We hired her for our wedding and chose one of her day of wedding packages. She was always on top of all of our needs and wishes. She accommodated every single change or tweak along the way, without hesitation. Her personality at the in person meetings, left us feeling at ease that we would be able to fully enjoy our magical day and that she would make sure all went off smoothly and perfectly! She allowed us to use her extensive wedding accessory inventory free of charge, which saved us a lot of extra money. Her years of experience were clearly apparent, as she seem less Lt lead us through what we feared would be a long and hard process. The vendors she recommended were amazing to work with, and we even received discounts that she passed along to us for many of them. When our day was near, she ran the rehearsal at the venue (where she has highly respected). That day we must have asked a million questions, and she happily answered them all with a smile on her face. This left us at ease, for the next day. On the day of our wedding, she was prompt, attentive, organized and made every single aspect of our day absolutely perfect! The day went off without a hitch. If there were any, we never knew as she was right there on top of everything. Her timeline and detailed planning made the day run smoothly and effortlessly. She was there whenever we needed something or had a “bridal emergency”. Our day will be able to be remembered and enjoyed forever, thanks to her outstanding service! We highly recommend Kristy, to anybody who is looking for a top notch, professional, reliable and experienced planner, who will truly make your dreams come true! We can’t thank Kristy enough, and you will be in great hands with her.
I would not recommend Kristy Rapp as a wedding coordinator. I got married this past weekend at Sydonie Mansion, and had a beautiful wedding with so many wonderful vendors that put ...
together our dream wedding. Unfortunately, Kristy was not one of them. She was one of the two day-of coordinators available to us on the required vendor list, and the venue manager recommended her over the other coordinator, so Kristy was who we hired.
What went right:
- Her assistant Shelly was awesome, professional and polite and went above and beyond
What went wrong:
- Kristy never once answered my and my mom's calls on the day of the event, but texted us immediately after having an excuse not to pick up, even when it was urgent.
- We missed one of the photo locations we had on our photo timeline because she directed catering to set up at that location. The photo timeline was given to her ahead of time, so this is information that was provided to her and is something she should have prepared for/coordinated.
- She interrupted our first look to ask a question for something we had outlined with her during a meeting prior, which meant my parents missed seeing the first look.
- Guest books were not moved to the reception like we asked, which resulted in them not being used as much as we had hoped
- Items we had paid for (dessert plates, glasses) were sent back by Kristy, which meant we were not able to use the items we paid for
- Kristy moved cocktail tables meant for the reception to the cocktail hour despite clear instruction of where they should have been placed (we even drew her a diagram during our last planning meeting for her)
- Multiple guests and wedding party members had negative experiences with her, describing her as rude when simple questions were asked
- She managed to break 5 cake and dessert plates while packing them up afterwards, despite protective wrapping prepared for her (which she had balled up and stuffed into an empty box); we had offered to do this ourselves but she insisted
- Kristy threw away thousands of dollars of centerpiece flowers in the trash without consulting us stating "they were dead" despite them looking fine minutes before pack-up
- Did not show up to the rehearsal but sent her assistant with incorrect information
- Gave the DJ incorrect information on when the cake cutting was, something clearly outlined in the information emailed to her
- Menu indicators for meal choices went unused because information was not clarified with caterers day of
- As I was walking to change into my reception dress, I overheard her say my ceremony was "awkward" to the staff, which I feel was rude and unprofessional
I would not recommend Kristy to anyone that wants their day to run smoothly, their guests to be treated with respect, or who values their property. I also want to mention that all of this information has been sent directly to Kristy as a chance for her to explain and improve, and she stated that these things were "out of her control". I am posting this to hopefully prevent other brides from having the same negative experience.
Kristy was so helpful with our wedding planning process. I don't know what I would have done without her. She thought of so many extra things and small details that I would not hav...
e on my own. She was very organized and definitely kept us on track. Everything went perfectly as planned on our big day (although I probably wouldn't have even known if something went wrong). I would definitely recommend Kristy. Her prices are also so reasonable for the value of her services!
I would NOT recommend Kristy, I hired her for my daughter’s wedding, to be honest I hired her on the recommendation of the venue. It did not take me long to realize why they recomm...
end her; she works for them not the person who hires her. I wasn’t very impressed leading up to the wedding day, lack of communication, I would have to send more than one email to get response, always had an excuse as to why she didn’t answer the first email. On the day of she was no help at all. She will tell you all she will do, but then do nothing, she never stepped foot in the bridal suit to see if we needed anything, she ruined the gag first look by not knowing what was going on, she was nowhere to be found during the reception. Anytime I needed her she was in the “private” part of the venue sitting on the couch chatting with the venue manger. When I would ask her why something wasn’t done, I found out later she lied to me more than once about things. She did not take any stress off me or the bride. She made the night way more stressful than it should have been! VERY UNHAPPY for the money I paid compared to the service we got. She is not a people person and does not go with the flow on anything, if it isn’t her way, she is visibly upset and seems to shut down and not work alongside you any longer. I will say I had two daughters’ get married three weeks apart at two different venues (this being the first). I waited until after my second daughter’s wedding to write this, I wanted to compare her to the other coordinator we hired (the one that venue recommended). I did not want to give an unjust and out of hast review or write a review during high emotions. I can say hands down between the two coordinators they were not even in the same ballpark.
Kristy was an AMAZING at helping us plan our destination wedding. We were married this month at Casa Feliz. We initially were planning not to have a wedding coordinator, but hiring...
Kristy was one of the very best decisions we made for our special day.
Kristy was always able to help us with recommendations for other vendors and ideas for different aspects of our ceremony. She is one of the most helpful people I have ever met. Kristy was always available to us to help answer any questions or give her input. She responded to our many email questions promptly and thoroughly. SHe truly had a genuine intention to be as helpful as possible to her couples.
If you're overwhelmed with the planning process, this is the coordinator for you. Kristy already had the answers to so many things we hadn't even thought about, and she makes sure you are entirely prepared for your ceremony and reception. Even though we hired her for day-of coordination, what she did for us was much, much, more than that. She helped us through the whole process but also let us make our own decisions. It was a dream come true!
We encountered an issue with our shuttle service, and Kristy immediately responded to get the issue taken care of. She also helped us game plan when the prospect of rain entered the forecast (luckily it never actually rained, and everything went according to our Plan A thanks to her flexibility).
I should also mention that the pricing was the most inexpensive we found. But don't believe for a second that you aren't getting the best service, because you are!
I cannot recommend Kristy Rapp events more highly. A++! Happy wife, happy life. This is the wedding planer for you!
Throughout the entire wedding planning process Kristy was there to answer all of our questions, make suggestions and recommendations, and share her expertise. On the day of, she an...
d Shelly helped make sure that we had nothing to worry about at all on our wedding day! We found out after the night was over that we were running low on liquor (apparently our guests weren't in the mood for drinking hardly any wine or beer so the liquor was going fast) and Kristy went out to pick more up. We are so grateful for Kristy and Shelly's help in making sure our day went smoothly and seamlessly.
I'm a wedding photographer and Kristy did an amazing job on a recent wedding at Casa Feliz. She is a joy to work with!
Kristy did such an amazing job helping plan & execute the wedding of our dreams! We got married at Casa Feliz in Winter Park. She knew most, if not all, of our vendors personally a...
nd had worked with them regularly. She recommended several tips & tricks to help us save money. Our florist & cake company did a less than stellar job on our wedding day but Kristy stepped it up and fixed all of there mistakes - I didn’t even notice until Kristy told me herself. Everything was perfectly organized & looked exactly as I envisioned it. I would definitely recommend Kristy as a wedding planner for anyone else getting married in the Central Florida area.
Kristy Rapp was the best wedding coordinator we could have had to make our day go so smoothly from start to finish! Throughout the whole planning process she was there to answer al...
l of our questions and was such a great communicator. On the day of the wedding she and her assistant were amazing from the second they arrived. They made sure everything ran on time, everything was set up perfectly, and at the end of the night everything was ready to go from our venue. We couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator to work with and are so grateful that she made our day so perfect!!
My venue (Casa Feliz) suggested reaching out to Kristy after I found myself reconsidering my relationship with another wedding planner. I and so glad we found Kristy. She was so kn...
owledgeable, kept us on track, kept us sane, anticipated all details I didn’t even think about, was so patient with us even when thing got tough (ie COVID). Honestly, I am married today because of Kristy. She is amazing. Hire her.
She was the real MVP of my wedding! When multiple wedding venues recommend Kristy, you know that she is great! She is sweet and knows a lot about the wedding industry. Contact her...
immediately!
Kristy is the absolute best! She is very helpful and will make the whole process easier & enjoyable. She goes above and beyond for you and puts her heart into it because she loves ...
what she does. She was so helpful to recommend vendors and take care of details so you don’t have to stress during the process and especially the week and day of your wedding. She has a wealth of knowledge and tons of experience and is patient with indecisive brides like me. She even created a slide to display on the tv by the entrance that accurately matched our wedding "theme" when I did not get a chance to create my own. If you want your day to go smoothly trust her expertise and use her as your day of coordinator!
Kristy was our day-of coordinator and was absolutely INCREDIBLE. She was super organized, easy to communicate with, and provided absolutely everything we needed. Even when I had a ...
few questions a couple months leading up to the wedding, Kristy answered and gave advice. Starting a few weeks before the wedding, she started contacting all our vendors, checking in about last-minute to-do items, and just wrapped everything up perfectly.
If you're going back and forth on whether to hire a planner for your big day or not -- PLEASE hire the planner! You will save yourself more stress and worry than you can possibly imagine on the day of your wedding. Kristy was there to help with SO much -- and I will always be thankful for her!!
Hiring Kristy was one of the best decisions I made! She was absolutely amazing to work with and knows her stuff! During a crazy year she set my mind at ease, helped keep me organiz...
ed/on the right track, and helped me remember even the small details. She provided us with great vendor recommendations and even had an awesome wedding inventory we were able to borrow from. I have a knack for stressing over everything, but on the day of my wedding I didn't stress over a single thing thanks to Kristy. She ensured everything ran smoothly and was never far if we needed something or had a question. Thank you for everything Kristy, you are truly amazing!!
I do not have enough good things to say about Kristy! She was beyond amazing. The amount of knowledge that she has on weddings is crazy. Any issue that came up, she was so cool and...
collected and reassured us that it's okay and happens to everyone! I could text her any time of the day with stupid questions and she'll always answer them and gave us very honest opinions and recommendations. We just kept telling ourselves through the process, "What would we have done without Kristy??" She just made everything such a breeze. Thank you, Kristy! :)
Kristy is absolutely worth her weight in gold!! She was fantastic in helping us navigate our rescheduling due to covid. When we finally had our special day Kristy made it all run s...
moothly and was so on top of things! I cannot recommend her enough! Our wedding day was perfect and I owe much of that to Kristy. If you are looking for a professional, understanding, and organized coordinator look no further!!
When I decided to cancel my destination wedding and have a smaller ceremony in Orlando 78 days, I knew I needed a coordinator. Kristy Rapp Events was the answer to my prayers. Kris...
ty was amazing from start to finish.
She is so organized and detail oriented, she helped me prepare for wedding by providing me with spreadsheets and to-do lists. She took all of my stress away. Also, her vendor list and picks were AMAZING!!!!!!! From the venue, to hair and make up, floral, seriously the best out there!!
I put all of my trust in Kristy and she delivered. My dream in my wedding day was to be able to sit back, relax and drink champagne with my Bridal party and I that dream became a reality due to Kristy.
Kristy is INCREDIBLE! If my husband and I could give Kristy 100 Stars we WOULD! We hired Kristy for day of coordination and had 2 meetings with her ahead of time. From day one Kris...
ty was ontop of her game. Our first meeting she had so many great questions, suggestions, and ideas as well as gave us a list of things we needed to do to achieve our big day. She provided recommendations for amazing vendors that we used for our wedding and all were phenomenal. Kristy followed up with me to make sure I was staying on track with booking things as well (even texting me a few days before the wedding to suggest items we still needed to remember to get last minute ((guest book, and drink tubs))) We had our wedding on 8/16/20 during Covid-19 with restrictions and Kristy didn't miss a beat. On the day of our wedding Kristy was a peaceful rock, guiding us into each phase of our night, my dad and I down the isle , the ceremony, our dance, couples portraits, family photos, even breaking down the event. Both my husband and I were not stressed ONCE thanks to Kristy! She knew what both of us needed before we even knew. The cherry on top of the perfect Kristy wedding experience was her incredible thoughtfulness. She boxed up 3 portions of our wedding dinners and each flavor (4) of our wedding dessert cakes in a to go bag and gave them to us which we enjoyed later that night when we got to our hotel. My husband and I can not stop bringing up how impressed and grateful we were and are to have Kristy as our planner. THANK YOU KRISTY!!!!!

Kristy is worth her weight in gold! I believe I actually told her this after one of the many hiccups of our global pandemic planned wedding. She was always right there, always avai...
lable to talk through things, had a handle on everything, and was able to make me feel calm when everything was less than calm! She took our vision and made it a reality. From helping me find a last minute hair and makeup after a Covid emergency to talking me through other last minute problems. She is so organized and is committed to making sure you get your happily ever after. We cannot thank Kristy enough!

We are so grateful to have had Kristy as our day-of coordinator. From the moment we hired her to 1.5 years later--having her with us on our wedding day--Kristy was everything we ne...
eded to have the most perfect wedding. We are in awe of how lovely and honestly perfect our day was, and we owe so much of it to Kristy and her organization, professionalism and attention to detail. I put a lot of thought into different aspects of the evening, passed over to Kristy and it was all executed so beautifully and just as I had imagined. From creating the perfect timeline, to sharing her personal inventory, to setting up our personal touches and then packing them up for us at the end of the night...the list goes on---Kristy was invaluable and we are forever thankful to her for being a part of our journey and making sure our wedding day was absolutely perfect!
Kristy is so incredibly organized and put together. We planned our wedding from out of state and she was there for us every step of the way, from the beginning to the end. She has ...
a plethora of resources, information, and contacts, and when she didn’t, she had great suggestions that guided us in the right direction. She is very relaxed and flexible and kept us grounded the entire time. She went above and beyond, from purchasing our favors for us (of course we paid her back) to picking up our donuts so we could avoid a delivery fee, to helping us negotiate fees when there was a hiccup. My vendors and family were also super impressed with the timeline she put together and our wedding went without a hitch! We would highly recommend her to anyone. She is worth every penny and more!
Kristy came highly recommended to us from another wedding industry professional that we know and, from our first call and meeting with her, we knew it was the right decision to hir...
e Kristy to help plan our destination wedding in Orlando.
Ever patient and kind, Kristy had a fantastic list of vendor recommendations for this out-of-town couple, and was always so happy to share her insights, thoughts and suggestions for when we were unsure about some of the smaller details. She decorated our reception beautifully and had a huge inventory of signs and wedding items we were able to borrow to make our wedding uniquely ours without breaking the bank.
Kristy has such an incredible demeanor for a wedding planner - very cool and calm but simultaneously organized and efficient. She was able to fit the scheduling of all our vendor meetings plus our engagement photo shoot in to one weekend in Orlando, and kept us on time with our planning so that I felt so on top of things throughout the whole process. We also appreciated the additional help negotiating with one of our vendors - Kristy was more than ready to jump in with suggestions to keep costs within our budget.
Kristy, thank you so much for all that you did for us and for keeping us so organized and stress free. You made wedding planning a dream and we could not imagine doing it without you. So grateful!!!
Kristy was a perfect wedding coordinator. Her calm and cool demeanor quenched all our fears, stresses, and hiccups as we got through to the wedding. She was able to manage everyone...
from family members of all ages, wedding courts of all personalities, and even our vendors and officiant all over the place. Kristy also has a great knack for knowing which situations she needs to play out and resolve itself, and which situations require an executive decision from us. At the end of the day, she was able to let us enjoy our night - which was the best gift any coordinator can give us.
Kristy was able to make someone who has control issues actually be able to sit back and enjoy the wedding festivities. She handled every detail from schedules to decorating. I felt...
like I did not even have to lift a finger to make my wedding amazing. She was always able to be reached throughout the planning process and handled kept everything on track. She even ran our wedding rehearsal the day of to accommodate our out of state bridal party members. She was amazing!
Kristy did an awesome job! We are so glad we hired her to be our day of coordinator!! From all of the planning meetings, her detailed organization skills, to the extra wedding inve...
ntory she had, every step of the way was great! She kept us on track and our special day ran just as we planned thanks to her and her team! We would highly recommend her to anyone! Thanks for making our day perfect!
I cannot even put into words how thankful we were to have hired Kristy! From the first meeting we had with her, I knew immediately that she was the right choice. She went above and...
beyond the typical day-of-coordinator, meeting with us multiple times, reaching out to vendors on our behalf, and checking in regularly to make sure we were on track. I also need to mention that her vendor recommendations saved us SO MUCH MONEY! She knows the best local vendors that you may not know of that do amazing work for the best price. The day of the wedding, we worked mostly with her husband Nick (she was sick and had no voice, but was still there!) and he didn’t miss a beat. It was clear that Kristy had shared every little detail with Nick and he executed the day flawlessly. Thank you both for an amazing day and we recommend you a million times!
Hiring Kristy is the best decision I made in the wedding planning process! We hired her for day of coordination, and she consistently went above and beyond her necessary duties. We...
had multiple meetings leading up to the event, she attended two venue meetings with me, and I always felt that she was reachable if I needed her. I tend to be extremely type A, but she was always ahead of me. On the wedding day she stopped by the venue early to make sure everything was running smoothly, and then came back later as scheduled. The day ran so perfectly, and it is thanks to her. She kept me on track during the planning process, and kept everyone on track during the wedding day. I am so endlessly grateful to her for everything she did to help make my perfect day a reality. HIRE KRISTY! You will not regret it (:
Kristy was a life saver! I knew nothing about planning a wedding. I actually was dreading it. My friend recommended her and I'm SO glad I listened. Every meeting was so informative...
. She kept us on track and over time we thought we had it all under control but then she would remind us of an important task we didn't even think of. She was great with keeping in contact with the vendors as well. She did it all! And when the big day arrived I wasn't even stressed because I knew she wouldn't let me forget anything important. My wedding was absolutely perfect and it wouldn't have been without her help and expertise. She is perfect at her job and damn good at it. I highly HIGHLY recommend her.
Kristy was a phenomenal planner! Planning a wedding 2 hours away from where you live is not the easiest but Kristy was such a great help ! She had great recommendations and had a l...
ist of preferred vendors that were amazing. Kristy was super organized, professional, and definitely passionate about her career. She always made herself available for my questions and our meetings every time. Her inventory was able to save me tons of money and her services were SUPER affordable! Thank you so much !
Kristy and her team were just amazing!!! I could not have asked for a better wedding coordinator for my husband and I’s wedding. Every detail was thought of and I didn’t have to w...
orry about a thing. I left my sweet heart table and other items to her discretion and did I make the right call. The reception hall was just breath taking and more than I could have imagined. She brought my vision together just perfectly. Throughout the whole planning process Kristy kept me right on track and she brought attention to things I would not have thought of. She was just the right person for us and I would highly recommend Kristy Rapp Events.
If you are looking for a day of wedding planner...look no further!! Kristy helped make this day happen!! We met with her 2-3 times and our first time was a consultation before even...
hiring her. If anything went wrong behind the scenes, let's just say we still do not know about it! Her and her assistant made sure our day was flawless and ran smoothly. She was amazing! Responsive to all of our unlimited emails and texts and then the last month leading up to our wedding day she met with us to finalize the itinerary and we dropped off all of our boxes of decor items for her to set up and break down at the end of the night! She got us a discount on our wedding invitations as well! Without her, the day would have consisted of us setting up and not allow us nor our families to really enjoy every moment! She was phenomenal!!
We loved working with Kristy! She was our day of coordinator, and we had three meetings prior to the wedding, where she helped us finalize all details, and made sure we didn't forg...
et anything! She was on top of everything! She set up all of our decorations on the day of our wedding, and they looked better than I could have imagined! She took care of all the little details that day, and we just got to enjoy our day! Would absolutely recommend!!
Kristy was an absolutely amazing day-of-coordinator. Even before the wedding she made sure we were on track to finish all of our vendor contracts and payments. Our pre-wedding meet...
ings are a large part of why things were so perfect. Kristy is kind, understanding, and ALWAYS helpful. Anyone that books with her will not regret it!
Kristy was absolutely amazing throughout the entire planning process. She was friendly and knowledgeable. She was our day of coordinator, but even throughout the process, I sent he...
r a few emails to get her suggestions on vendors and opinions. I had a vision for what I wanted the ceremony and reception space to look like and she set it up perfectly with all of our décor. We got everything back and she made sure the building was completely clean, staying until the very end, so we got our venue deposit back. I would highly recommend her! She takes so much stress away from the bride the day of!
It's been seven months since our wedding, and I still don't know how to begin to express my gratitude for Kristy. My husband and I live in California, but had our wedding in Flori...
da since that's where we met and where the majority of our guests lived. I was nearly crippled with fear at the idea of planning a wedding from over 2,000 miles away, but was delighted when Kristy's name was recommended by multiple friends. My mom contacted her and they met a few days later. After the meeting, my mom called and stated that Kristy was absolutely the person to handle our wedding.
Kristy made planning a wedding EASY on my mom, husband, and myself. Her organizational tools (regularly updated budget sheets, to-do lists, customized vendor lists, etc.) kept us on track and we never had to worry about if there was anything we were forgetting. Her calmness and professionalism can keep even the most anxious of brides calm (like when your lodging option falls through three months before the wedding!!!)
My favorite thing about working with Kristy is that she only sent vendor recommendations that were within our initially planned budget. This allowed my husband and I to research the vendors based strictly on the product they were providing, without having to worry about the cost.
Our wedding day was stress-free, thanks to Kristy! I had full confidence that everything was taken care of, and I only needed to be present in each moment. I also knew that if there were any problems that arose, Kristy would take care of it without me ever knowing there was a concern.
I know people use "day of" coordinators, but I can't imagine not having Kristy there for us from the very beginning...before we even had a date! I think it's also important to state that Kristy's connections and professional relationships with vendors SAVED us more money than we spent on having a wedding planner. You can't afford NOT to hire her!!!
I wish I had all the words to describe how thankful I am for having Kristy be a part of our special day! We used her as or day-of-coordinator but she was SO MUCH more. She was amaz...
ing from the first day, the meetings, slight stress meltdowns, through all the last minute changes due to being on a mandatory lockdown for two whole days before the wedding due to Hurricane Matthew (a day before our wedding!), all the way up until the venue was being cleared out. Kristy is professional and very passionate about her work which was a #1 priority for me. She was very organized, communicated with me in a timely manner, kept me on track to getting things done on time, communicated with other vendors to make sure things were going to be running smoothly, made the reception decor even better than what I imagined, I could go on and on! If you are considering Kristy, DO IT!
Kristy was wonderful! We used her for a day-of coordinator and it was great. Very quick with responses and contact. She gave great recommendations for other vendors. She really ha...
d a handle on the event and took care of so many details! Highly recommend!
