I am an anxious person. Like, highly anxious. Like, I work very hard on keeping my anxiety to a minimum. And yet, in the days following my wedding, I have had multiple people reach...
out and tell me that they have never seen me luck as carefree or happy as they did on the day of my wedding. I believe that this was in very large part due to my wedding planner Kirsten.
From the first time we spoke on the phone, I felt like Kirsten and I had known one another forever. She was a kindred spirit, if you will. She was passionate, driven, creative and had a no BS attitude that made me feel like I was in safe hands giving her the reigns for my wedding day.
The day of my wedding went off without a hitch. Seriously. Not a single hiccup. With Covid, we had people cancel as close to one day before the wedding, and it was Kirsten who was able to help us consolidate tables, change the floor plan, and have everything moving so smoothly that the only clue that there had been a change was that some tables now had two table numbers.
My wedding was a dream day. I felt beautiful. I felt beyond happy. And I was able to relax and enjoy every moment because Kirsten and her team had everything under control.
I cannot recommend Kirsten highly enough. If you choose her to help plan your wedding, you are guaranteed to have a perfect day.
Kirsten provided day of event management for my 45th birthday extravaganza a month ago. She is my Sorority Sister who I have watched her career grow in leaps and bounds. She did no...
t disappoint! The guests and the vendors continually rave about her professionalism, friendly and efficient execution throughout the entire event. She is worth every penny and worth investing if you would like a quality event without the stress and headache. I would absolutely use her in future events that I have.
Amazing, Amazing, Amazing!!! Kirsten brought together a goal of being married before 2021 with only less than one month to plan. I call her my Olivia Kope (Olivia Pope) because she...
either had the answers or connect for anything and everything. I could not imagine planning this micro wedding ceremony without her. I knew she had made an impression on my now Husband .. when his response to decisions were “what would Kirsten do/say”. She kept us organized and prompt and worked well with family and friends who also thought they were Wedding/Event planners . She was not just my Wedding Planner but my Friend, Big Sister, Mother (at times), Teacher, Preacher, Therapist and more. From the bottom of our heart, we thank you for making 12-27-2020 the best day of 2020. - The Downers
I will start by saying it has taken me weeks to curate this review because it’s extremely hard to put into words EVERYTHING that Kirsten and her amazing planning services truly was...
to me leading up to and most importantly on my wedding day. She went above and beyond to ensure every detail was accounted for and reaffirmed for me many times that I was the bride and deserved a beautiful and special day, as I lost sight of that at times throughout the process. A certified expert in all things wedding-related, she was the guide I needed to navigate all of the intricate details of wedding planning which were magnified given an altered plan due to COVID and a revised intimate setting and guest list. I have to honestly say I underestimated the value of a planner initially, but the stress that she allowed to be removed from my plate as the bride was PRICELESS. At even the slightest mention of an issue, Kirsten’s solutions-focused mindset was always ready to quickly help me reset and make a decision given the many options she quickly provided. She personally helped my husband and I ensure our look, wedding day, and abbreviated honeymoon was AMAZING (above and beyond)! To say she was helpful is an understatement...she was critical and a necessity to the success of our day, the visionary behind the look and flow of everything, and truly a gem to work with as she cares about every single component and ensures the consistency in all of the moving parts given various vendors and timelines. Do yourself a favor and hire a planner who will listen to your desires and have your best interests at heart while executing a flawless event..it’s worth every PENNY and Kirsten is the person who can handle it all for you while keeping your vision and happiness as her ultimate goal.
Kirsten helped me plan my son's high school graduation event (estimating over 100 people) and did an OUTSTANDING job. From every detail and every decision, she provided guidance, ...
direction, and support to ensure we had the very best services and options available. Kirsten's knowledge and experience in working with vendors across the area was invaluable. From the highest level of professionalism, attentiveness, and coordination, I highly recommend Kirsten / 12in12 Design Group to help you plan your next special event.
To say Kirsten was the most important part of our wedding day coming together would be an incredible understatement.
I really enjoy planning things for myself, my friends, and fam...
ily: parties, outings, dinners, vacations, etc. I’m a checklist & full schedule kind of person. So when it came time for me to hand over the reins for my wedding, it was a very different experience for me. Not because I didn’t trust her, but because I’m so used to throwing myself in to make everything happen. Kirsten handled all the vendors, worked with my friends to get everything set up perfectly at the venue, and insisted I not lift a finger the day of the wedding. (My biggest challenge!) She made sure we ate, that we were comfortable and happy, and we had what we needed. At the end of the day my father asked specifically about her, because he was unbelievably impressed with her, and all she had done. Considering I get my “make a list, then go get it done” traits from him, that speaks volumes.
I know full well she walked/jogged/ran all over that venue all day (and it was HOT!). And somehow she never stopped making us feel like she was genuinely happy to be sharing the day with us, and that our happiness and ease were her utmost priority.
I ran into Kirsten a couple of weeks after the wedding and I could have burst out of my skin. I might have tackled her. OK, I did tackle her. Because I adore her, and truly enjoyed getting to know her over these past couple months.
I would not have been able to enjoy my wedding day the way I did without Kirsten. It was truly the most amazing day ever.
For anyone on the fence about hiring a day of coordinator or wedding planner, please listen when I say that you truly need one to fully enjoy your special day. And if you want it to be flawless, that person better be Kirsten.
Kirsten was engaged and genuinely vested in us enjoying our wedding. We'd selected Kirsten as our day of coordinator but she met with several times prior to our wedding to make sur...
e she understood everything we planned and expected for the day of. She was kind to our family and friends. We are so appreciative for everything she did. She was professional and prepared.
Kirsten and her team at 12in12 Design Group were an extreme delight to work with! We hired her as our Month of Coordinator but she available to assist us even before the contract w...
ent into effect. During our phone calls, the question that she typically led with was "How can I help you not feel so stressed?" or "What are the areas that are stressing you the most, so that I can be of assistance?". This was a breath of fresh air because with most vendors you are greeted with a running to do list.
Kirsten was great when it came to managing vendor relationships and she was not afraid to be the voice of the couple. She made sure to ensure that our needs and desires were met. Managing vendors can be a juggling act but she left her mark on them and each of them came up to us to say "Gosh, I just love her!", which echoed our thoughts of Kirsten as well!
We also had a lively wedding party of 14 different personalities and managing these adults was quite the task in itself but her and her team knew just how to communicate to keep them in line and keep their spirits bright! I am not sure how Yvonne from 12in12 Design Group did it but she made sure that all 7 groomsmen looked their best and were wrinkle free! She even helped Hubby look his best for our big day! :)
The communication was a mixture between email, phone call, and text message, so it was pretty convenient to quickly discuss our wedding needs. The final 30 days leading up to the wedding are the most stressful and quick communication is very crucial, so I loved having Kirsten readily available to help me feel calm despite the chaos around me. If you or anyone that you know are in need of a Wedding Planner or Month/Day of Coordinator, I would definitely recommend choosing Kirsten and her amazing team at 12in12 Design Group! They will help you turn your dream wedding into reality!
Five Stars! As an event professional and business owner I spend most of my day planning and executing special events obsessing over every little detail so it seemed natural that I ...
would be incredibly involved in my own wedding. I thought it would be difficult to relinquish that responsibility to someone else. It was important that the coordinator must be able to manage the details of the day just as I would and Kirsten exceeded my expectations in every facet! From the moment I met her she was prompt, courteous, decisive and knowledgeable. Her professionalism and personality eased all of my initial concerns. I was incredibly impressed at how she was able to recognize which aspects that were extremely important to us in addition make appropriate decisions for those details we were dispassionate about. Needless to say the wedding day was perfect, greater than everything we imagined and we are so thankful to have had Kirsten by our side.
I'm very particular. I like the best of everything and I wanted that for my wedding and guests. KK was very good to work with because she is just as particular. She knows her stuf...
f and it shows. When we talked about dresses she had 4 designers to throw out off the top of her head. When I had etiquette questions she always had the correct answer. She went over the top for us and my guests had a wonderful time at our wedding. Thank you KK and if we do a vow renewal I'm calling you first!
My husband and I would like to extend a VERY SPECIAL thank you to Kirsten Nichols, Owner of 12in12 Design Group LLC for the phenomenal orchestration and professional execution of o...
ur Wedding Celebration! She managed the day with such style, grace, and command. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER FOR ANY SPECIAL EVENT YOU PLAN TO THROW. She has a wealth of vendors at her fingertips with whom she has established great relationships. You would be remiss if you did not consider her services. WE LOVE YOU and are extremely thankful for the passion and care you took in planning and preparing for our special day.
