Katie was such an amazing person to work with from the very first phone call to our last email after my wedding!! I got engaged in February of 2023 and reached out to Katie the following month. My husband and I decided to elope but we still wanted to have a big celebration with all our favorite people. The idea of splitting up our wedding into two events made me very stressed and anxious. I wasn't positive on how we could even achieve this and if it was just a crazy idea. My first phone call with Katie I expressed my concern and she immediately reassured me that this idea was possible. After our first call ended I let out the biggest sigh of relief and told my husband that I was so thankful that I reached out to her!! Katie made me feel confident in what we wanted for our wedding and I am so thankful for that. We did what we wanted and not what other people thought we should've done because Katie encouraged and supported us from the very start!! Our wedding day was so special to us and I can not thank her enough for that! We worked with Katie on partial planning. I am so thankful to have her for the first two months of planning. She truly kept me on track and informed me the whole time, I never felt like I was forgetting something or taking too much on at once. When April of 2024 hit I had zero stress because I knew that I would have Katies help that whole month. She asked questions that I would never have thought of, helped me make final decisions and was a calming person to go to during my wedding month. Our elopement was beyond perfect and our reception space was STUNNING thanks to Katie! She even mailed our marriage license for us! Katie was very responsive and honest. When I sent her inspo she let me know what we could do to achieve my goal but in our budget. She is also super sweet and very cool! I wish I could throw more events just to have her help me again. Katie at Keystone Event Coordinating was the perfect wedding planner for us and I can not think of a better person to help plan your most special day with!! Email Katie now, I promise you will thank yourself later!!

I cannot say enough incredible things about Erin. Above and beyond does not begin to cover it! Look no further for any of your wedding planning needs. We hired Erin for our month of coordinator almost 2 years in advance. From the beginning, she was very responsive, informative, kind, and helpful. I am pretty organized, and she consistently thought of questions I didn't! I was very impressed with her demeanor with myself and the rest of our vendors. Our venue required a pre-approved coordinator, and Erin took the steps to contact them to make sure she would work out, and we are so glad she did! She did everything she said she would and then some. She reached out to all of our vendors, worked with us on our timeline (many times!), attended our rehearsal, and never got frustrated even when we had a lot going on. Erin felt more like a friend than a coordinator, and we are so happy we got to spend our special day with her. Our day went so smoothly from start to finish, and we know this is due to Erin's impeccable attention to detail. If you are looking to have an incredible day with a crisp timeline and no stress - Erin is your gal!

Hey there! My name is Alanah. I've been planning and working in events since 2017. I've planned weddings, large conferences, corporate events, family gatherings, birthday parties and more. I've worked as a wedding planner at large hotels and resorts to small local wineries. To me, every wedding is unique and I'm here to make sure your vision comes to life. I look forward to the possibility of creating your dream wedding together!

I think with every wedding there can be bumps along the way that can really alter how your day goes. However, I was incredibly lucky to have Alanah assist me at my rehearsal and the day of my wedding. She was fast at responding to all of my needs and was never far away when I requested her. I will say with the errors that happened on my big day, none of them reflected back on Alanah. I am able to look back and know that the rehearsal and ceremony would not have went as smooth as it did without her help. Moving forward, anyone would be SO lucky to have her as a wedding planner!

From securing luxurious accommodations for ourselves and our guests to coordinating seamless transportation between multiple locations, Sophie took all of the stress off of our shoulders. Her local knowledge of Miami, etc. was invaluable—she recommended a beautiful boutique hotel and many hidden gems for our honeymoon to boot. Even with some last-minute changes, Sophie handled everything calmly and efficiently, ensuring that every detail was taken care of. Her ability to make the travel aspect of a wedding feel effortless is truly remarkable. Our friends couldn’t have been more grateful, and I was so impressed by her professionalism and warmth throughout the entire process. There are always challenges around weddings I know, but Sophie handled all of ours like an absolute professional.

My name is Steph Stanglin and I am an experienced wedding and special event planner! My goal is to create lifelong memories for my couple through beautiful, customized bridal events. Some fun facts about me are: I have 2 cats (Milo and Kiro) and 1 dog (Rory), My goal is to visit every state and continent before I turn 40, I'm a certified Swiftie, and Reality TV and chocolate are my guilty pleasures. Most likely to be seen carrying a binder and crying at first looks and vows.

I cannot say thank you enough to Steph! She was absolutely amazing. She was so committed to learning what aspects of the wedding were most important to us and making sure they happened on the day of. For example, we were getting caught up in the dancing and were going to skip the cake cutting. She didn’t push, she just asked, “Are you sure? You told me that this was something that was important to you, so I just want to check”. And I’m so thankful she did that, because it’s one of my favorite wedding moments! She went absolutely above and beyond for us. I am currently in medical school and was so stressed leading up to the wedding, but Steph made me feel like it was possible. She was so organized and wrote out every detail we discussed. She went out of her way to suggest some vendors we were struggling to book last minute, and the list goes on. I cannot recommend Steph enough. She is wonderful and sweet and kind and I cannot believe I found her! We could not have done it without her.

Carla and her team are amazing! They helped us have our dream wedding on the mountains. Since day one, Carla was on it with getting all the info out to the vendors and myself. If I needed changes, she would do it with no issues. She was a total rockstar the day of our wedding, everything was smooth and there was no confusion.

We are a boutique wedding planning company serving Florida and North Carolina and its surrounding areas. At ARH Events we pride ourselves on getting to know our couples and we believe that those relationships are integral to building a wedding that is truly reflective of our clients personalities.

As a bride planning for a 2022 wedding, engaging ARH Events was an excellent decision. I would strongly recommend them to any bride-to-be who is organizing their dream wedding. I had been in touch with several other wedding planners, but ARH Events was the first to arrange a meeting and provide clear information about packages and pricing, which I greatly appreciated. Amy brought my dream wedding to life. Being an out-of-state bride, I had concerns about realizing my vision, but Amy exceeded all expectations. She was deeply involved in the planning process and consistently responded to my queries via email. Choosing ARH Events proved to be a wise decision due to Amy's extensive experience. Her knowledge of numerous vendors enabled me to secure discounts from my preferred suppliers. Furthermore, her familiarity with my venue simplified the decor planning and setup process. My wedding day unfolded flawlessly, thanks to the Amy at ARH Events. I was spared the task of dealing with vendors or answering countless questions. This allowed me to truly enjoy my wedding day, remain stress-free, and focus on the celebration. Without hesitation, I would hire Amy again.

JayLynn brings a very positive energy to her weddings and truly wants the best for her couples. Our wedding was executed flawlessly thanks to JayLynn’s help! I wouldn’t want to imagine having a wedding without at least a day of coordinator. My day was pretty stress-free, and the assistance JayLynn provided for set up, decorating, and tear down at two locations for the ceremony and reception was invaluable.

Awarded Best of Zola
Erika was the BEST choice!!! She is detail-oriented, always prepared, and so enjoyable to work with. I never felt stressed or overwhelmed because she was always calm - it gave me such confidence! I did the month-of package which is great for the bride that still wants to be mostly planning it but does not want to handle all of the details the month of. It was the perfect package for me to be stress-free in knowing she was following up with every vendor. Honestly though, working with Erika was so smooth, I probably would do her full-service package if I were having a do-over. I genuinely cannot recommend her enough. Even my guests were coming up to me and speaking so highly about how well she handled the weather issues and little things. All a bride wants is a stress-free experience and you will get that with Erika! 3

I was in so impressed by how incredibly communicative, talented and sweet Melissa was! She went out of her way to put my umbrella where it was accessible when it rained and as a photographer with very expensive gear this was such a thoughtful gesture. She was so on top of things and communicative through out the whole day. One of the best planners I've ever worked with and I've worked 100 weddings. She will go great places!
