It's very rare to find such a amazing, innovative, talented and yet down to earth individual as Kat to team up with. She is truly a kind person that embraces the unique differences in each person/couple . Kat is young and fun with endless energy. She is very much in tune with the hottest wedding/design trends going. However she embraces each couples vision and works endlessly to make it a reality. Kat always answered messages promptly in amazing detail and followed through with every question . I am sure she is dealing with several clients at any given time, but she has a great ability of giving you her undivided attention and she listens to you. She's an expert in navigating her way through the world of vendors, contracts etc., something that can easily overwhelm a couple or family. In addition to wedding planning and design we had Kat do our flowers, which were beautiful and exactly what the bride wanted. A mistake on our part in the corsage count was no big deal at the last minute for Kat. She was able to make up another corsage on the spot and diverted a mini mishap. Kat was very creative and helpful in coming up with budget friendly solutions which we greatly appreciated. Kat offers many services that I wish I would have known about sooner, I would have loved to utilize more of her talents. You will not be sorry and will consider yourself lucky if you decide to go with Kat Minks Design.
Kat did a great job helping me with finding ways to show the details about us as a couple. Her flowers were amazing and the suggestions she gave on ways to cut costs in some ways but still get the look we want were so helpful. I’m so glad we had her every step of the way.
Kat was absolutely amazing! She made our wedding day seamless. She was extremely flexible and took responsibility for more than we could’ve ever asked for. From the wedding party (which I’m sure was a handful in itself) to decorations, staging, communicating with all of our vendors, etc. she was on it! Kat was very organized and checked on us frequently to see if we needed anything. She responded quickly and was very prompt and personal. I HIGHLY recommend her! She took so much stress away and allowed me to sit back and enjoy our big day knowing she had everything under control and taken care of!
Kat was a lifesaving dream when it comes to wedding planning. She is extremely well organized, punctual and follows through. She is especially talented at seeing through your vision as a bride and using creative and cost-effective ways to ensure your dream comes through. She ended up taking over my flowers and decor as it was more cost-effective and exciting hire her knowing she knew my vision from the beginning. Kat incorporated and suggested so many details I would never have thought of to make sure my day was completely seamless, unique and beautiful. She is also extremely helpful in interacting with vendors, as well as recommending vendors and narrowing down options. Her budgeting process is seamless and integrated through the entire wedding planning to make sure your budget is respected with each decision. She saw my wedding through from start to finish and helped me things not necessarily always to do with strict planning (i.e. she helped me dress shop, attended bridesmaid dress shopping and counseled on linen choices). For anyone who is at a new to the area, feels overwhelmed talking to vendors and budgeting, is not sure how to go about decor or creating a vision, has long-distance family that you feel like are pulling you in a million different directions or are just feeling the pressure of planning such a grand event Kat is the gal to go to! I seriously would not have made it without her!
I was so happy to have the help of Kat Minks for my wedding. From the first meeting when I brought my loads of ideas and photos that inspired my own wedding, she really took any anxiety I felt away each time something new needed to be tackled. She understood my vision and I chose her because our general style is so similar. I love that she professionally styles clients and events and that those two services are combined in her full service package. She also acted as buffer between vendors and us and family members and us in every part of the planning process. Our wedding was perfectly planned for a year and the day went tremendously well because she thought of everything and more down to how the food would look on the plate or that a buffet option had too big of bites. She even stepped in and finished the flowers that my bridesmaids couldn’t finish because they were overwhelmed. I hope anyone shopping for a planner hires her not just because she just loves her work but really knows what she’s doing.
Kathy is extremely talented and is flawless when planning events! Kathy has the ability to turn dreams into a reality! Her visions can turn even a dirty garage into am amazing place to host an event! The little touches she makes have a huge impact! She planned a grooms dinner at my home and it was one of the best events I have ever had or attended ! Her work ethic far exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend her for any and every event!
Kat did a wonderful job coordinating our wedding ceremony! I felt so much more at ease on my big day knowing that my details would be left in her hands- one less thing to worry about! It was so nice to use her services such as organizing the wedding party, decorating for the ceremony, and overseeing the overall flow of the event. Kat is detail-focused, extremely organized, and does everything with genuine warmth about her. Everything ended up going flawlessly- I highly recommend her services!
I worked with Kat and I have to say her attention to detail and putting people at ease is like nothing else I’ve ever experienced or thought I would in planning a party for my friends wedding. She is a professional and someone that is just easy and flexible to work with. Kat also did a beautiful job on the special decorations and flowers I hired for for. She recommended flowers that were in colors I wanted but also fit into my budget and did a very pretty clear sign and balloon garland for the shower. It was so nice to have assistance with clean up and she had great ideas for keeping my guests entertained. Everyone had a great time and many said it was the best shower they’d ever gone to.
I hired Kat in the very early stages of planning my wedding. At first I thought I’d just need day of coordination but I soon found out I needed a lot more help gathering my thoughts because there are so many choices in vendors. Kat was able to take my ideas and provide a lot of guidance in eliminating what wasn’t so important and what would be the most highlighted at my wedding. She saved me a lot of stress and time and kept me on budget. If you are considering a planner and coordination I highly recommend Kat. I also liked that she was the person I worked with the entire process and I was never handed off to an intern or someone in training for questions or appointments as I know some of my friends experienced with other coordinators in their weddings.
Our experience with Kat Minks was absolutely incredible. I was worried because my family is from the area but we do not live there and having her as our touch stone was amazing through the whole process. She really cares and takes care of her clients. She even threw in a couple extra meetings to style my bridesmaids and me. Additionally she was also hired by the groom's family to plan and design the rehearsal dinner for our event. It could not have gone better. She made sure everyone arrived to a great welcome bag with maps and an itinerary and got to where they needed to be. The floral and decor she designed and created was exactly what we envisioned. After the wedding she really makes sure all the vendors follow through with delivery on what was promised. I was on the fence if I'd need a planner but having her made me realize how much I really did need the extra help.
I had the pleasure to work with Kat (Adore Productions) during a photo shoot where she featured some of my jewelry on her models. She is very professional, creative and truly has an eye for beauty.
If I were to get married again, I would definitely include Adore Productions.
I love Adore Productions work. Kat's attention to detail and great style will make your wedding into the wedding you are dreaming of. She is so talented on so many levels and with so many things that she never ceases to amaze me! I feel blessed that I get to work with her from time to time. I highly recommend her!
Adore Productions was one aspect of our wedding that made our day complete. From the day we called to check on what services Adore offered to the day we said our "I do's" we were pleased and confident our day would be one to cherish for years to come.
Adore Productions saved us many headaches from dealing with contracts, to vendors, insurance issues, catering, planning and designing our day of set up, to finding the perfect dress, and being a breath of fresh air to help family and friends breathe, relax and enjoy the wedding day. Adore Productions is handled with class and elegance and listens to the needs and desires of clients. We are a simple couple and were at ease with the creativity to take our ideas and make the day one of beauty and delight to our family and friends, to make us shine and embrace the day.
Adore Productions offers so many quality ideas, design, creativity, expertise and class to make your wedding day and ANY event for that matter a day to remember.
Adore Productions has several options they offer for events to help the day or event go smoothly. We were able to utilize and incorporate not only our ideas but the resources and supplies that Adore Productions had in stock. This alone saved us space, time and cost for items we may not use in the future.
We would HIGHLY recommend a wedding planner for not only the day but the time leading up to the wedding. Adore Productions goes above and beyond quality service and time to make each detail memorable and sight to embrace.
Where do I start? Kat is simply amazing, multi talented and an expert at event planning! Whether you need a florist, an event planner or decor for an event, Adore Productions will go over the top to cover it all. Kat was offering a once in a lifetime opportunity to a bride who would be featured in her bridal shoot and I was blessed enough to be the bride who received this opportunity! Not only did Kat provide beautiful fresh flowers, personalized decor and the event center but she found the most AMAZING vendors to work with us! My Beauty and The Beast themed bridal shower was more then amazing and Kat worked so hard to make it our vision come to life and I will forever be thankful! :-)
Kat at Adore Productions was a lifesaver! I didn't think I needed any help the day of my wedding, but I couldn't have been more wrong! After walking through the details and deciding on ALL the things that needed to happen to make the big day work, I was more than happy with my decision to hire Kat. She knows what needs to be done at what time, puts together a timeline to ensure you are both on the same page and takes care of EVERYTHING the day of your wedding. After seeing her work designing my DIY décor and knowing she coordinated all of the vendors as well as handling tips and final payments, I couldn't have spent my money in a better place. If you are deciding whether or not you need a Day-Of coordinator, you DO! And Kat is the one you should check out!
