Our venue had a preferred list of coordinators that we had to choose from for our wedding so we went with Exceptional Events almost solely for the fact that she had a very basic day of package and she listed all of the services that came with it. For someone that’s never been in a wedding before it was hard to grasp what all a coordinator does, so it was nice to see it all laid out. I didn’t need a ton of help but definitely wanted someone there day of to keep everything under control. After speaking with Kaitlyn and getting an idea of our expectations of each other we decided to book with her. She was super organized, helpful and prompt whenever we had questions and was flexible with us regarding method of payment. Although Kaitlyn was handling everything up until the rehearsal, Allie was our day of coordinator. She was absolutely amazing. I seriously could not have asked for someone better. She kept the timeline on point, came to check on us multiple times throughout the day to make sure we were feeling good, she even helped me pick out and arrange the floral buds I got from my florist for the cake- that definitely was not in her job description! She was super easy going and fun but was able to switch that off and be assertive when family members weren’t paying attention to instructions. She made our day as easy as it could have been and we even got compliments from family members on how awesome Allie was. I would (and already have) definitely recommend Kaitlyn, Allie and Exceptional Events to anyone!
Kaitlyn and her team were absolutely great! They ensured that our wedding day ran smoothly and stress free. They decorated our venue so beautifully. The rental store that she has is heaven sent. Book Kaitlyn Exceptional Events for all your planning/ coordinating needs.
We hired Kaitlyn as our day-of coordinator for the ceremony, and she was awesome. Don't underestimate the power of a day-of coordinator, especially such a professional and friendly one as Kaitlyn. I feel she made our day run smoothly and did quite a lot ahead of the day to make sure things were in place. She definitely knows what she is doing, and I highly recommend her!
Kaitlyn is so organized and helped our big day run smoothly. She always kept in contact and responded to any and all questions I had. She did a great job bringing my vision to life. She stayed on top of all contact with the vendors. Made sure everyone knew what to do and when. There was never anything that went wrong and that was due to her great work. I had people compliment how good she was. I would definitely recommend Kaitlyn.
Kaitlyn knows everything.
From our very first meeting, she asked the right questions, helped us stay on task, and simplified the 5,000 decisions we had to make.
Exceptional Events has a great collection of decorations you can borrow, which saved us a ton of money and made the space more beautiful than we could have managed on our own.
And the wedding weekend went off without a single hitch -- Kaitlyn and her team were absolutely flawless, managing things so smoothly that we never had that thing go wrong that everyone says will go wrong at your wedding.
Kaitlyn was very organized and helped our big day run smoothly. She did a great job coordinating behind the scenes to make our wedding as stress free as possible, and followed up closely with each of our vendors to ensure a seamless wedding day. I would definitely recommend Kaitlyn.
Working with Kaitlyn and her team was an incredible experience! From beginning to end, Kaitlyn was prompt in responding to questions and sharing details. She worked so efficiently behind the scenes throughout our entire engagement season and really alleviated a lot of stress from my fiance and me. Kaitlyn's staff (Allyson and Lauren) executed our wedding day seamlessly, and it was the best day! We are so grateful to Kaitlyn for her months of work and an incredible day orchestrated by Allyson and Lauren! We would highly recommend Exceptional Events!
I wish there were more stars to describe what a superstar Kaitlyn is!
I found Kaitlyn through a friend whose wedding I attended. My friend had 300+ guests at her wedding and Kaitlyn and her team planned, organized, and managed her special day seamlessly. After seeing her in action, I knew I wanted to work with her!
Kaitlyn is easy going, calm, organized, flexible, knowledgeable, professional - and any other positive adjective you can think of. She is on top of everything all the time; just when I thought I was going to lose my mind, Kaitlyn was 3 steps ahead of me. She has a keen eye for design and impeccable attention to detail. Her breadth of experience makes YOUR experience stress free - there is NO task or emergency that Kaitlyn and her team cannot help you manage!
I truly feel like I walked away from my wedding day with a husband AND a new best friend.
I would absolutely recommend Exceptional Events to anyone in the wedding planning process! Kaitlyn was always readily available to answer any questions I had along the planning way and her rentals were beyond my expectations! She personalized a chalk board for our wedding that was absolutely amazing and very professional looking!
Kaitlyn was amazing! So professional. A delight to work with. She handled everything and made sure things rans smoothly. If there were any problems on my wedding day, I sure didn't know about them! Highly, highly recommend.
Kaitlyn and her staff definitely helped make our wedding weekend run perfectly! We hired her as a day of coordinator and she did not disappoint. She was available throughout the entire planning process to help. She showed great initiative and contacted all our vendors to ensure everyone knew when and where to be. She was very flexible when things didn't go exactly as planned and helped troubleshoot quick solutions on the fly. She also has a lot decor items that are available free of cost that definitely helps save you money overall. Our weekend was perfect and she was a big reason why!
Kaitlyn was all hands on deck for our wedding just a few weeks ago. Her and her team were very responsive to any and all questions we had. From the time we first started talking with Kaitlyn about our big day, to the rehearsal to the day of. She made all of our dreams come true and without her nothing would have went as smoothly as it did. Her team she had working the day of we’re on top of things. Making sure things I didn’t need to be worried about were not even on my radar. I cannot thank her enough for her dedication and hard work, and would not recommend any one else to do the job!
From the first day we contacted Kaitlyn to even the week after the wedding, her professionalism, sincerity, punctuality, and flexibility was SUPERB. Her list of services were beyond what we expected. She is "hip" with the times (made our snapchat filter!) and is knowledgable without a doubt with her prior expertise - education related and self experience. We requested day-of services, but she was so open in communication with us weeks in advance. She was sincere in simply answering any questions we had when it came to our vendors and even easing my stress level. On our wedding day, her team stepped up and made sure things were done, like making sure we were able to try our specialty drinks, ensuring the flow of the ceremony/bridal party/reception was present, and I was told they put out some fires I wasn't aware of (which is how it should be). She does it all, and with the best rate I KNOW we wouldn't have gotten anywhere else. If you're getting married in North Carolina, Kaitlyn and her team with Exceptional Events will be your best choice if you want the perfect wedding day.
Kaitlyn was very responsive to my 100s of questions and her calm demeanor helped make the wedding planning and coordination a fun and simple process. She was very prepared and went the extra mile to make sure everything went as planned!
Hiring Kaitlyn, the owner of Exceptional Events, was one of the best decisions I made while planning my wedding. I hired her as my day-of-coordinator for my wedding and she was always patient, kind, and helpful. She really was great to work with and gave you complete confidence that everything was going to be fine. Kaitlyn and her assistant, Emily, did a wonderful job on the day of my wedding! Everything was perfect and I truly could not have done it without their help! My guests kept telling me how great Kaitlyn was and how she was always around to help out whenever you needed her - she was there!
Kaitlyn is awesome! I got engaged in December and was planning a July wedding when I hired Kaitlyn. Due to a family illness, I moved my wedding to March 3rd. So with her help, my fiance and I planned our wedding in 5 weeks. She helped with everything from calling my RSVP's, meeting with my vendors, and even tearing rose petals off for my exit when I forgot the sparklers! I am very grateful for Kaitlyn's help. My wedding was PERFECT, and I could not have pulled it off in a month without her!
Kaitlyn was such an awesome day of coordinator. Things ran so smoothly thanks to her. If there were any issues, I didn't know about them because she handled everything amazingly. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner or other event coordinator!
Kaitlyn was so great to work with. The day of my wedding I had nothing to worry about she handled everything for me and made my wedding perfect! I would highly recommend exceptional events!
Kaitlyn was wonderful! I can’t say enough good things about her. She met with us twice and was super organized in helping us plan. On the day of, she decorated the whole venue using some of her decor (which was an added value) as well as some decorations we bought. Our day went so smoothly and I was never stressed because I would just say “talk to Kaitlyn, she knows” and I could focus on my day and not make tons of little decisions day of. She made sure our timeline was met and everyone knew what to do and when. Kaitlyn definitely helped make my perfect!
Kaitlyn was a cheerful, energetic, well organized, self starter. She was our "day of the wedding coordinator" and the services she provided exceeded our expectations. She was so pleasant to work with and I know we couldn't have done it without her. We requested that she set up the wedding decor at the venue, handle the vendors and keep things organized. We are so happy that we found her and she was available on the day of my daughter's wedding. I highly recommend Kaitlyn at Exceptional Events for any event planning help. Thanks Kaitlyn!!!!!!!
