“A wedding planner is there not only for when everything goes according to plan, but also in the event something goes wrong, or is unexpected; on the day of your wedding (and everything leading up to the big day) a couple needs to trust that no matter what, the wedding planner will be there to support the couple’s needs and ease any stress for the couple. Kianna and her team at Golden Hour Events perfectly embody this. No matter what happened, Kianna was there to handle and make sure everything was running smoothly, so that as the bride and groom, we could enjoy our special day without the additional stress of the event or day of logistics (Kianna even ran to our hotel room to grab the groom extra contact lenses when his fell out right before the mother-son dance). The ability to relax and enjoy the wedding day because of our trust in the wedding planner provided an immeasurable comfort that is invaluable to the bride and groom. This trust is something that Kianna and her team provided us, and we confidently know they will provide any couple the same on their wedding day. The planning process for a wedding takes months of active and ongoing work, often with difficult decisions, yet fun moments. Having Kianna alongside us from start to finish ensured that the entire process was operating smoothly and effectively – she helped us navigate the unknowns of planning a wedding, tactfully navigated varying family personalities, and celebrated our joy with us. Especially because we were planning our Montana wedding from out of state, it was comforting to know that Kianna could refer us and connect with vendors on the ground. Even when we had changes to the guest list a week before the wedding (causing stress for the bride), Kianna calmly handled the changes, alleviating the bride’s stress.
In addition to gracefully handling and managing the behind-the-scenes for the wedding, Kianna and her team perfectly designed our wedding decor. As a little girl, I always imagined what my wedding would look like and never thought my dream could come true. However, from walking down the aisle at the church, to the first look at the reception room (the culmination of nearly a year of planning), I was able to experience my dream wedding – and I attribute that all to the Golden Hour Events team. Their level of creativity, eye for artistry, elegance, and tastefulness, and attention to detail (right down to the napkins, linens, menus, table numbers, and seating chart) are unmatched. When I opened the doors to the reception ballroom for the first time, I was overcome with so much emotion, as Kianna turned my vision into a reality, while far surpassing my dreams. She transformed an empty ballroom into a beautiful and breathtaking pink wonderland. While the Golden Hour Events team was all around amazing, their unique designs and willingness to go above and beyond for us really stood out as particularly impressive – rather than the same cookie-cutter wedding decor, Kianna constantly was suggesting decor that truly was different and reflected my personal vision. She also tracked down cushions that were the exact size of our chairs when I asked if our chairs could have cushions; she even had her family drive an ice cream cart from Texas to Montana for our dessert ice cream sundae bar.
If you’re looking for a Montana based wedding planner, we highly recommend Golden Hour Events.”
