There truly aren't enough words to describe how incredible Kelleen is.
Hiring Kelleen as our month-of coordinator was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We spent m...
onths planning every little detail, and since we made about 90% of our decorations ourselves, there was a lot to set up. Walking out for our ceremony and seeing everything come together was one of the most emotional moments of the day. It was somehow even more beautiful than I had imagined. Every single detail was exactly where it was supposed to be, and seeing our vision come to life was something I'll never forget. We have Kelleen to thank for that.
From our very first meeting, Kelleen made us feel completely at ease. She listened to every idea, every detail, every timeline, and every one of my very long emails (haha), and somehow took everything I had envisioned and made it even better. She truly cared about making our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be, and that showed in everything she did. She was incredible during our rehearsal, making sure our entire wedding party knew exactly where to be and what to do. By the time the wedding day arrived, we felt so confident because we knew we were in the best hands.
Throughout the entire day, Kelleen was always there before we even realized we needed something. She was constantly checking in on us, making sure we had food, water, and anything else we needed while also keeping the entire day running so smoothly behind the scenes. Because of her, we were able to be fully present, soak in every moment, and enjoy our wedding day without worrying about a single thing.
Looking back, we truly can't imagine our wedding day without Kelleen. She didn't just bring our vision to life, she somehow made it even more beautiful than we ever imagined. We wouldn't change a single thing about our day, and so much of that is because of her.
Kelleen, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you for every meeting, every phone call, every email, every recommendation, and every little detail you took care of along the way. Thank you for treating our wedding like it mattered just as much to you as it did to us.
If you're looking for someone who will genuinely care about your wedding and make you feel completely taken care of from beginning to end, Kelleen is the person you want by your side. Looking back, hiring Kelleen wasn't just one of the best vendor decisions we made, it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, We are forever grateful for everything she did for us.

job and that I did not have to worry about anything on my wedding day. If I needed something during the day, she found a way to get it. She went with the flow while also trying to keep us on time. She was easy to work with and also super sweet! We are happy we chose her for our special day. She knew the ins and outs of the venue and made us feel comfortable. She also coordinated with vendors in a respectful way and made sure everyone was on the same page. Thanks Kelleen!

essert table to organizing every aspect of the evening. Kelleen worked well with the vendor staff and consistently checked in with the bride to see what she needed. She took the initiative and handled tasks without even being asked, as she instinctively knew what needed to be done. I would highly recommend her to anyone in search of an exceptional wedding coordinator

way we envisioned and genuinely made us excited for our wedding and feel like we could execute what we wanted. There were things during the actual wedding day that I had an “it’s ok I’ll just leave it out to make things easier” attitude…but Kelleen literally came to the rescue and somehow made it all work. It was a privilege to work with her and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, creative and reliable planner!
Kelleen is a one of a kind wedding planner! Here is a little background of my experience: I found that planning a wedding to be very stressful, I did not know where to begin. Not o...
nly that but, I was attempting to do it while I was pregnant and working nights in the hospital. Once I found Kelleen it was so seamless, I truly did not have to lift a finger. She made my experience enjoyable and made my wedding so incredibly beautiful and perfect. Not only is she very professional she is very personable. So much as I would call her a friend. Thank you so so much Kelleen for making all of our wedding dreams come true! YOU ARE TRULY THE BEST.
Being blessed with 3 daughters and 3 weddings starting 10/2021 and ended with our youngest daughters wedding 8/2024, Kellen is the only day of event coordinator I would ever hire f...
or these events. She knows the tricks of the trade, she has tools for unexpected mishaps( bride's strap broke) and is caring for all to have the best day for your family in mind. Her attention to detail is amazing like it is her wedding day too. Book early with her as she does fill up. We booked her services anywhere for 9mo. to 1 year out. ❤️
Kelleen Trostel with BeYour Own Guest was everything and more as our wedding planner. Be your own guest is a fitting title for the experience we had at our wedding. Kelleen is deta...
il oriented, efficient, kind, and an absolute pleasure to plan a wedding with. She listens and really cares about what you want. Even at the reception she went above and beyond to make sure we had everything and then some. I highly, highly recommend Kelleen!

ng us make the best memories!
Kelleen from Be Your Own Guest was a godsend on our wedding day. She operated in the forefront when we needed her and in the shadows when we didn’t know we needed her. We were a li...
ttle nervous having only a day-of coordinator and doing the rest of our planning ourselves, but Kelleen answered every question we had and got us thinking about everything we needed to. We brought all of our own décor with instructions on where things should go and she made it happen. Our day ended up going so smoothly thanks for Kelleen’s attention to detail and hard work.
Kelleen was amazing and so fun to work with! She was very organized, thoughtful and went above and beyond to make my vision come together and help with everything the day of the we...
dding. The entire day was so smooth and perfect, from small details to big, in huge part thanks to Kelleen! Such a wonderful and stress-free experience, and we would highly recommend her to any and all future brides.
Kelleen was absolutely AMAZING. As an out-of-state bride, Kelleen was able to ease so much of my anxiety. She was so kind, reliable, and professional. She was not only incredibly h...
elpful during the wedding prep and planning but was absolutely vital on the day of my wedding. She made sure me and my husband were taking time to eat, that our drinks were full, that we were happy, and she ensured our day ran smoothly.
My transportation cancelled on me less than 24 hours before my wedding and while we weren't able to find a replacement (due to covid, CO Prom season, big Red Rocks show, etc.) Kelleen did everything in her power to try and fix it. She was our rock in the chaos!
I cannot recommend Kelleen enough to any bride looking for a coordinator/planner. She knows her stuff and goes above and beyond for her clients! Kelleen is a large reason that my husband and I can say we truly had a perfect wedding day.
Kelleen helped us as a day of coordinator. She was very attentive to what we needed throughout the day and made sure our wedding day ran smoothly. If I could've, I would have hired...
her to help planning the whole process! Kelleen is incredible!
Be Your Own Guest was great! We hired them to help with cake cutting, table bussing and clean-up at then end of the night and they were worth every penny! The crew was professional...
, helpful and allowed us to really enjoy our night and not have to worry about the little details. They would just take care of things before I even had time to think about it and all we had to do at the end of the night was just tell them what truck beds to carry stuff out to.
Kelleen is THE BEST!!! I don’t think my wedding would have come together or gone so smoothly if it wasn’t for her! We had to postpone a couple of times due to Covid and Kelleen mad...
e sure we were on top of things and communicated with all of our vendors so nothing fell through the cracks! She seriously is the sweetest and had such great suggestions for our decor, table settings, schedule, you name it! She was incredibly considerate of what my husband and I wanted and made sure we were happy every step of the way! On our wedding day not only did she assure we got to sit down and eat but made sure everything was going as planned! She even helped me change out of my very complicated wedding dress that had like a million buttons so I could quickly get into a second dress I had! She was the best wing women ever! I am so grateful to Kelleen and cannot recommend her enough she a wonderful person and coordinator she’s amazing in every way!!
Simply put, Kelleen knows how to get things done! From the very first phone call, she put my fiance at ease with her obvious knowledge of the wedding planning and coordinating proc...
ess. She is thorough, timely and really looks out for her guests. We had a bit of a rough time with our planning due to COVID concerns and Kelleen was right there to answer my questions and helped us in adapting to all of the new policies that had to be implemented. In the beginning, we weren't sure why we needed a coordinator, but I am so glad we had Kelleen there! She kept us on time, she considered countless little details that I would have never even thought of and just made everything run smoothly so that we could genuinely enjoy our day care-free. We are so happy that we chose to have Be Your Own Guest and Kelleen with us for our wedding day, it really would not have been the same without her.
Kelleen was absolutely amazing! We were required to hire a day of coordinator by our venue and I wasn't sure why...but after working with Kelleen, I get it! She made sure everythin...
g ran seamlessly! She was on top of things I never even thought of, and she was so nice and easy to work with! She truly made our day special, on time, and the details she put in really showed! We highly recommend her for any wedding planning or day of needs! I would hire her again if I could!
This event management company is fantastic! They go above and beyond to deliver prompt, efficient and courteous service. I would not hesitate to highly recommend this company.
Kelleen was a phenomenal day of coordinator. She was our rock on our wedding day and kept us organized & bases covered even the month before. She did a wonderful job of balancing ...
our requests, keeping us relaxed/having fun, while handling vendors and curve balls without us even being aware. We could not imagine having a successful wedding without her!
I didn't have to worry about set up and clean up during my wedding. They were very professional and always ran things by us first before doing them. It was such a relief to have ...
