When you don’t want to worry about a thing on your wedding day, let someone else do it for you. And make sure that person is Kristen Milano, owner of Everlasting Impressions Events!
While we did majority of the planning ourselves, we wanted (...and needed!) a lot of help on our wedding day. I can be pretty Type A when it comes to parties and perfection, and we didn’t want to worry about a thing on our big day. Our photographer recommended Kristen, and we were more than impressed with her work ethic and professionalism. And her fun personality is a big plus too!
From every meeting to every phone call and email, Kristen handled all questions and day-of planning with ease. She asks clients to fill out a specific web-based “wedding planner” to give her all the pertinent information regarding venues, vendors, the guest list, etc. And she checks in to make sure you’re getting it done. Because, let’s face it, procrastinating is easy. To be honest, I wrote this review along time ago and kept forgetting post it – and it’s way overdue.
Once Kristen had all the information she needed, she created a detailed timeline of the day and helped us stick to the plan. She attended our rehearsal and made sure the bridal party had copies of the day-of itinerary. Once the day came, she made sure everything ran smoothly.
From getting both groups (at the bride’s mother’s house and the groom’s mother’s house) to the church on time to getting through all the post-wedding photography on time to making sure dinner/speeches/the first dance and more went off without a hitch, Kristen and her associate Sophie took such great care of us. They also made sure my new husband and I had plenty of appetizers and food, because it’s easy to forget to even get anything in your stomach with all that happens on your wedding day.
Something else we will be forever grateful for is that she helped us with the setups. For example, at the church Kristen and Sophie made sure the programs were accounted for and handed out. At the reception venue, they did even more. The night before the wedding, I dropped off a bunch of items at the venue for a memory table, an escort card table, a selfie station, a digital slide show, and a portable air hockey table. I sent Kristen pictures of how I wanted each table set up, and she and Sophie worked their magic and made everything happen on our wedding day, and made them look even better than we imagined. We also had given her table numbers and wedding favors for every seat, and everything was perfectly placed.
We couldn’t be happier we chose to work with Everlasting Impressions Events. Kristen is a bride’s dream, and her associate Sophie was also very helpful. We highly recommend working with her whether you need some help on your big day or you need someone to hold your hand throughout the entire planning process. Her services are worth every penny, and she will make your wedding day dreams come true!
