Best money I spent for my daughter’s wedding! I could not imagine the stress I would have had if not for these two ladies! So professional, and thought of everything we could possibly need. They took care of some issues that came up, and we never even knew about until after the wedding! I still can’t get over the fact they brought foot numbing spray for the ladies in heels, high wind hair spray, so many things that you will never think of that might be needed!!

I am trustworthy, honest, dedicated, and am known for paying close attention to detail. With a passion for this industry, it is my personal goal to make every couple a member of the Palmetto River family and ensure that all our couple's have a worry-free and magical day.

Katie was amazing from the start! We hired her for day of coordinating, but she started communicating in detail about two months out. We had several meetings to go over all the finer details of our big day. Her attention to detail & willingness to provide exactly what is envisioned is top tier. I got to the bottom of the aisle before realizing I had left my bouquet inside, without hesitation, Katie bolted there and back just in time. She also handled a situation that shouldn’t have occurred at a wedding. We are forever grateful for all the time & effort Katie put into our big day!! Our day ran smoothly regardless of some hiccups all thanks to her, We cannot recommend her enough!
