If you are debating booking Golden Pineapple for your wedding planning needs, look no further! Kelly was my sister-in-law's planner and after working with her in 2021, my mom and I...
had no doubt we wanted to hire Kelly for my wedding. She is so organized, reliable, and calm. She remembered the little details that I mentioned one-off, which I think is difficult to find in a planner given how many weddings they are juggling. Highly recommend!
We hired Kelly as our month-of wedding coordinator, and she was truly incredible! From the very beginning, she was so easy to contact — always quick to respond, super organized, an...
d full of helpful advice. As the wedding day approached, Kelly made sure every detail was covered, and her calm, confident presence gave me so much peace of mind. On the day of the wedding, I had absolutely zero stress about logistics because of her. She kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes, handled any last-minute changes effortlessly, and made sure we could just enjoy our day without a single worry. Our vendors loved working with her too! Kelly went above and beyond for us, and I genuinely can’t imagine how the day would have gone without her. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, kind, and absolutely amazing at what she does, Kelly is the one!
We LOVED working with Kelly!! I truly don't how our wedding could have happened without her. She helped coordinate our vendor walk thru, the timeline, email communication, and ever...
ything day of! As someone who dabbled in wedding planning years ago, I knew how important it would be to have a planner but now being the bride, I truly cannot imagine the day without one. I would recommend Kelly to anyone that asks for a planner recommendation!
Working with Kelly made our big day relaxing and flawless. We enjoy our wedding day knowing that all the logistics were in such great hands. We are very grateful and would highly r...
ecommend Kelly!
Kelly was amazing!!! She made the wedding planning process very smooth and stress free. She kept us on track and we never had to rush to make decisions. Her network is great and sh...
e has built awesome relationships with vendors that really care about going above and beyond. We are so thankful for Kelly and her team!
Kelly and Rebekah were THE BEST! I had them 30 days leading up to the wedding and cannot stress how amazingly helpful they were. We had a last minute situation with our hair/makeup...
artist and Kelly was extremely helpful in navigating an uncomfortable situation. They were communicative throughout the last 30 days and made sure everything was covered the night of. Very organized, allowing us to be hands off while planning all the little details/scheduling with vendors. Highly recommend!
Kelly was a ginormous help when it came to wedding planning/coordinating! She helped us keep all of our vendors organized and recommended various vendors as well. She was very fami...
liar with our venue (and all of our vendors), so she had many insider tips that we wouldn't have gotten otherwise. She was patient and completely understanding throughout the whole COVID postponement process as well. She was also always willing to help and answer random wedding-related questions.
We are so glad to have had Kelly help us through the wedding planning process, and most of all, have her there to smoothly guide us through the rehearsal dinner and wedding day!
We are so lucky to have had Kelly in our lives for the past year and a half! We wanted a wedding planner and coordinator who was familiar with our venue. We asked our venue if they...
recommended anyone in particular and Kelly came highly recommended. When my husband and I first met Kelly, she was very kind, personable, knowledge, and willing to listen to our vision. My husband and I are the first born and so our families were unfamiliar with wedding planning. Additionally, we are both not from Atlanta and none of our friends or family members have gotten married in Atlanta, so we wanted someone who was experienced with Atlanta weddings. Additionally, our families do not live in the area. Kelly was the perfect match.
We had spoken to other wedding planners who made different rules about what they can and cannot assist with. What we liked about Kelly is her flexibility. We started with a certain amount of hours and built our way up once COVID hit ☺ Kelly was willing to assist us with things that are not so common such as our rehearsal dinner, farewell brunch, favors, etc. Kelly was able to be flexible and help us according to what we needed. There were some things my husband and I were comfortable doing ourselves and some vendors we found ourselves, and other things that I needed more assistance with. Kelly was happy to attend meetings with me, make phone calls, and reach out to her network. Kelly was able to speak from her experience and give great guidance based on her experiences. The planning details she sent out included checklists, recommended vendors, inventory items, and other things to think about. It was so organized and made us feel like all of the wedding planning was under control.
When there were things Kelly may not have known, she was happy to take her time to investigate more and reach out to her network to make sure we were happy. When COVID hit, Kelly was nothing but calm and flexible to helping us postpone our wedding.
Our rehearsal went so smoothly. Most people in the wedding party have not been in weddings before and she answered all questions and gave clear directions. On wedding day, she made sure everything went so smoothly. Her assistant Rebecca was incredible as well. There were some hiccups on wedding day, our getaway car cancelled the day before, and Kelly handled it and found us another solution immediately. A clasp on my dress fell apart 30 minutes before the ceremony begun and Kelly and my mom worked together to fix it. I knew there would be hiccups on wedding day and I knew Kelly would come to the rescue!
Overall, Kelly was personable, kind, organized, focused, and worked with all vendors and guests professionally. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding planner and coordinator! Thank you!
Kelly is the best! Her attention to detail helped make every part of the wedding run smoothly. It was perfect. I would highly recommend her services.
If you're searching for a wedding planner that is highly organized, easy to communicate with, has a ton of experience, and who will ensure your day is stressfree and beautiful, sto...
p searching and hire Kelly! As someone with a type-A personality, I knew how I wanted our wedding to look. Kelly seamlessly took that vision and executed it flawlessly. Like many other couples getting married in 2020, we had to adjust our initial plans because of COVID. When we decided we would do our entire wedding and reception outside, Kelly would send me things to consider weekly to personalize our day even more as well as ideas to keep our wedding guests safe.
Kelly has impeccable taste and I trusted her completely to make decisions on my behalf. When we had a vendor issue day of, I wasn't even made aware of this situation. Kelly handled it with grace and made certain what was initially agreed upon was delivered. She truly made our wedding day more special by taking care of all the details and making sure we were having the time of our lives.
Kelly and her team at Golden Pineapple Weddings were absolutely wonderful. I booked Kelly ~8 months before our wedding in August 2020. Her prices are very reasonable, and she pro...
vides a detailed menu of the services offered. I needed a Day-Of Coordinator because my venue didn't offer one. I wasn't looking for Month-of Coordination but ended up using those services as well which proved to be super helpful with COVID hitting in March. In the months leading up to our wedding, Kelly went above & beyond by sharing her experiences with other bookings she had during COVID (any post-pones or cancellations for different guest counts), which helped us immensely. Kelly is extremely well-versed and well-connected in the Atlanta / Southeast wedding world and has a background in venue management & catering. Kelly answered all of my random texts & emails super quickly during the Month-of, covering everything from family dynamics to signage options. Kelly was invaluable during the Final Walkthrough - steering the meeting and asking all of the right questions to all of my vendors. On the Day-Of, Kelly & her team were efficient and quick at running the behind the scenes - almost like little wedding ninjas! Kelly & her team had to alter my wedding send-off props on the spot because the helium wasn't keeping the balloons up! Guests didn't know the difference, and honestly neither did I because I was busy having too much fun at my own wedding. Kelly & her team really take the stress off and let you live during the moment for your big day. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Golden Pineapple Weddings to anyone getting married or having a big party in their near future.
Working with Kelly was nothing short of a perfect experience! With all that’s going on with covid right now, wedding planning is more challenging and stressful than usual but Kelly...
made this a seamless process with her support, expertise and great attitude. We highly recommend her to work on your big day in any capacity - having Kelly on the team will ensure it’s perfect and smooth!
Kelly was instrumental in making our wedding a great success! We are still enjoying the great memories from the weekend! It truly was a pleasure to work with Kelly throughout the w...
hole process. She provided such a sense of confidence, and understanding that really gave us peace throughout the planning process. She masterly handled the “generational issues” that arose so that everyone was heard, and happy! We truly would not have changed a thing - it was a perfect day! The way Kelly and Rebekah handled everything Saturday (Wedding Day) was amazing. Kelly made the MOB and MOG truly relaxed and allowed them to absolutely enjoy the rehearsal and wedding!
I found Kelly as a recommendation from BOLD and I’m so glad she was our planner. We chose month of planning. Kelly managed my vendors, put together a timeline for both the day an...
d the ceremony, answered all of my questions promptly and in detail, managed the rehearsal and everything the day of, and so much more. Our wedding was absolutely flawless and I owe that to Kelly. She took away so much stress and worry and has such a calming presence that I just knew everything was going the way I hoped and wanted. I really can’t speak highly enough of Kelly and would recommend her to any bride who is looking for someone who can take control and take away stress. She is the best!
Where do I even begin? We booked Kelly a year and a half prior to our wedding and she was so helpful throughout the entire journey. Her prior work experience at our venue (King P...
low) and connections in the industry coupled with her attention to detail, organization, and awesome personality made her such a pleasure to work with. She answered all of my questions either promptly via email or was always happy to jump on a call to chat. Her questionnaire and wedding planning documents are so thorough and definitely put me at ease- she thinks of everything!! It was really hard for me to let go and not control every detail of our wedding day, but I trusted Kelly. Because of that, our day turned out perfectly and I was able to actually enjoy it! I would highly recommend Golden Pineapple!
We simply cannot say enough good things about Kelly and Golden Pineapple Weddings! Like many couples who begin the wedding planning journey, my fiancé and I were completely overwhe...
lmed. We literally had no idea where to begin or how in the world we were going to make our dream wedding a reality. We knew we needed help, but didn’t know who or what exactly we needed. That all changed the moment we contacted Golden Pineapple Weddings and spoke with Kelly. Kelly’s knowledge, professionalism, and friendly attitude instantly put us at ease, and we knew that we had made the right choice. Kelly and her staff had all of the contacts and inside connections for everything that we needed. Her expertise and assistance in decision making helped to remove the gigantic burden of planning and execution from our shoulders. Because of Kelly and GPW, we were able to focus all of our attention on each other and the enjoyment our amazing wedding day. I can say with 100% confidence that we literally could not have had a better experience or a better company help us on the most important day of our lives!
My husband and myself worked with Kelly of Golden Pineapple Weddings and Events for over a year planning our wedding! We utilized her full service Wedding Planning menu. She assist...
ed us in picking out vendors, contacting vendors, planning, timelines, coordination, and much more! She recommended only the best vendors that made our day what we dreamt of! Kelly has much experience in the event planning industry and her experienced showed as she always knew what was next or what we needed to do in certain situations.
Kelly was extremely pleasant to work with. From the beginning she was quick to reply to any and all of my questions and concerns, if she did not know something she found it out for me. She answered all my emails (there were a lot, sometimes multiples in one day!) promptly. We met a handful on times to discuss the planning steps which kept my mind as ease knowing we were on the same page. She has great organizational skills to ensure everything ran smoothly and in a timely manner.
The day of the wedding Kelly and her assistant did a phenomenal job to ensure we had the most perfect day! Everything went just as we envisioned, and we couldn’t have had the day come together as perfect as it did without Kelly and Golden Pineapple Weddings and Events! I highly recommend using Kelly to plan your next event!
