Kate was the best! We are so thankful that she was a part of our big day and also the days leading up to it! She was so intentional in the process and was always available when we had questions and needed to meet. We loved the way she handled the rehearsal and the ceremony. Her and her husband, Logan, had to set up the morning of and we were so thrilled after seeing the finished product! We can’t recommend her enough!!

Kate did a wonderful job organizing all the little details before the wedding and on the day of. She’s worth every penny! If there’s one thing I could recommend to brides it’s definitely getting a coordinator. My wedding day was stress free and we had a wonderful time thanks to Kate.

Kate was the sweetest and most organized person I could have gotten. She took so much stress off my shoulders with the vendors and day of coordination. I got her full planning package and let me tell you so worth it. She had timelines for planning things. She found a selection of vendors with details she would send me. She communicated with everyone vendor wise so I didn't have to. Day of she was on top of everything cleaned up and made sure I had all my things at the end of the night. I was 9 months pregnant day of and she worked with my slow self so well. 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone.

Any questions?

Hiring a day of wedding coordinator was the best decision I made when planning my wedding. Kate was so amazing to work with! She made our day run smoothly, from helping create our timeline to having odd and end items we never would have thought of bringing with us. If there were any problems that arose during the day I honestly have no clue about them. I felt so stress free and relaxed during the day knowing that everything was being handled calmly and professionally by her. I would recommend hiring Kate to anyone getting married!

Kate made our wedding day run SO smoothly. I had no stress the week of my wedding and I owe it all to her!! Kate has the answers and advice for all the questions you may have and she is the most organized person I’ve ever met!! She was truly such an amazing person to work with throughout our whole engagement and wedding!

Kate was our guardian angel on our wedding day. She worked with us the whole month leading up, at the rehearsal dinner, and on the wedding day. She took charge and left no one with questions or doubts. All of our guests commented on how amazing Kate was throughout the day making things so seamless for everyone involved. We had a handful of inevitable hiccups, but Kate and Logan resolved every issue so quickly without anyone realizing anything was going on. She even handled issues directly with our venue when they fell through on their end of the contract so we didn't have to deal with it afterwards. Kate & Logan set up and cleaned up almost every single thing that we had at both our ceremony and reception locations. They were with us the entire day from the time we were getting ready until after everything was cleaned up and everyone was gone. Every single person involved in our wedding said the day would not have happened without Kate, and I couldn't agree more. The service she provided for us was priceless and I would recommend her to anyone a million times over. I could list a million individual things Kate and her assistant did to make our day perfect. She is early on in her wedding coordinating career, but she was the best, easiest, most professional person I worked with throughout the entire process of my wedding.

Kate was a day-of coordinator at my wedding on 11/12/2022, and she was SUCH a big help! She is immensely knowledgeable of the wedding business. Kate worked so hard, anticipated our needs, and paid careful attention to every detail. Everything ran so smoothly thanks to her! I would highly recommend Ampersand to any bride!

Kate was so helpful in making our wedding day beautiful. She was quick to lend a helping hand, and do whatever needed to be done to make my vision come to life. She paid special attention to detail, and was extremely timely and organized.

Kate was everything that we could have asked for in a wedding planner and more! From day one of the planning process, Kate walked us through each stage until the wedding day and to the very last moment of the reception. She provided so many special touches and gave us a worry free experience. Kate is the best!
