My partner and I began our journey with Syrie as our wedding planner back in the fall of 2020, and we can honestly say it was one of the best decisions we've ever made. We started with a selected venue but little else. Syrie, with her organized approach and expertise, transformed our vague ideas into a stunning wedding reality. She took our abstract descriptions and envisioned a day that was far beyond what we thought we wanted – it was what we dreamed of. Despite our extended planning cycle, Syrie was a constant presence, always checking in to ensure that our preparations were on track. As a couple living in New York City, we appreciated having local "boots on the ground" throughout the planning process. Her deep connections within the Buffalo wedding industry became priceless when our original our venue, Hotel Henry, unexpectedly shut down. Syrie saw the writing on the wall weeks before their fall and organized tours of alternative venues – a task outside our agreed-upon package. We ended up choosing The Admiral Room, a venue we hadn't initially considered, but it turned out to be a gem. Its grandeur resonated with us perfectly – yet another testament to Syrie's understanding of our tastes and preferences. Syrie's expertise also shone when it came to vendor selection. She provided a plethora of options for each service, letting us evaluate different styles and approaches. Each vendor we chose delivered impeccable service, with a special shout-out to Tori Vee who created an extraordinary musical ambiance. Syrie is an impressive organizational powerhouse. Having her as our planner allowed us to focus on savoring every moment of our special day. Her efficient staff resolved a minor hiccup with a vendor within half an hour – we barely noticed it had happened. Our experience with Syrie was nothing short of magnificent. She guided us through a daunting process with grace, expertise, and foresight. Syrie not only saved us from potential disaster but helped create a day that was even more beautiful than we could have imagined. We enthusiastically recommend Syrie.

She understood my vision from the very start and demonstrated an outstanding level of professionalism, organization, and support. Myself, my husband, friends, family, and other vendors were so impressed by the team's level of dedication and their genuine attention to detail.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

Rachael and I clicked from the second we got on the phone. I knew right away she was going to help make this a stress-free process, and that she did. We worked with Rachael for our October 2023 wedding at The Otesaga Resort Hotel in Cooperstown, New York. I couldn't have been more appreciative for her opinions, advise, and organization. Rachael helped me to create my vision for our wedding and executed it flawlessly. She was easy to communicate with and I felt like I could be honest and myself. Rachael had total control over all the vendors we utilized (even the last-minute additions) while also being there for me 24/7. Throughout the wedding planning process, she was the best friend I never knew I needed. Rachael is professional, calm, but also makes you feel like family. She is so passionate about what she does and you can tell from the minute you meet her. Our guests were also obsessed with her - She's an amazing people-person and someone you want by your side. My only regret was not finding her sooner. Rachael is your go-to wedding planner and coordinator.

While planning events as a side hustle for over a decade, I have also been a nonprofit event coordinator, farmer, and music festival planner. My background gives me a unique perspective on each wedding I plan. Sustainability, Inclusivity and Couple Advocacy are extremely important to me. Some fun facts: Leo with Taurus Moon and Libra Rising, ENFP, a Peacemaker, and I love a good personality quiz. I'm a sucker for fashion, and like to joke that ! can smell a good consignment/vintage shop. I had a wedding Pinterest 8 years before I even met my husband, and I will do anything in my power to give you the wedding you want.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don’t think I can truly explain or fit into a review how amazing Kris with unKAGed events is! We hired Kris because this was a destination wedding for us and we needed help with locating vendors and wanted to feel like we had someone that we could work with in the area that was familiar with the industry and able to coordinate day of for us. I had my initial call with Kris and immediately felt comfortable and listened to with any questions or concerns I had with planning. She offered us different vendors for catering, rentals, dj and cake. She setup up tastings and meetings with all vendors making sure we felt comfortable and confident with every vendor we went with. Kris went above and beyond being CCd on every email and on every call. She provided quick and accurate information throughout the planning process. We ran into issues with our venue along the way and Kris was right there beside us helping us and working through it. What can feel like the chaos of wedding planning we knew we could trust her and rely on her. When it came to day of as a bride it’s hard to feel like you don’t have full control over your day. However trusting Kris after working with her leading up to the big day I knew she was going to do all she could to bring my vision to life and make the best decisions for our wedding. She did just that! I can’t put into words how much she did for us - from all the work leading up, rehearsal, setting up ceremony site, setting up cocktail hour, setting up the reception tables and seating chart and then breaking it all down after - she truly does it all!! I knew I was hiring someone to help us along the way and for the day of our wedding what I didn’t know is I was hiring someone who would care about us the way she did.
