We had a wonderful experience working with Kristi as our coordinator for our February 2025 wedding. Kristi was always so responsive and happy to help answer any questions, and she provides amazing checklists/resources for wedding planning to make sure nothing is forgotten. Kristi had a lot of experience working with our other vendors as well who were all happy to hear they'd be working with her for our event. Kristi is kind, calm, organized, and experienced which is everything you need on your wedding day. Her daughter was her assistant for our wedding and was so sweet and helpful as well. Thank you to Joyful Details for making the day seamless and fun!
I knew Kristi and her team were pros from the many many reviews praising their services. But we threw a pretty nontraditional and logistically challenging wedding at them and they made it work beautifully. It was great to have her expertise and tools all along the planning process, and day-of she kept us on track, stress-free and made on the spot decisions that were clever and kept things running smoothly behind the scenes. Don’t hesitate to book Joyful Details.
Kristi and her expertise with wedding is exactly what I needed when planning this special event! Her communication was prompt and was so helpful when attending vendor meetings. She is patient and kind throughout and was always reassuring when I got stressed. Day of, she and her assistant were so organized and took great care of us, our family, and our guests. Kept us on track while allowing us to truly enjoy every moment! Cannot recommend Kristi and her services enough!!
We had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Kristi for our November 2024 wedding! From start to finish, Kristi’s professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail made our wedding planning process smooth and enjoyable.
Leading up to the wedding, Kristi provided timely responses to all our questions (big or small) and offered valuable advice, insights on industry trends, vendor recommendations, and contract reviews. Her online planning portal was a great guide, giving us all the tools we needed to feel organized and prepared.
Kristi also helped us coordinate our rehearsal and managed everything seamlessly on the wedding day. Thanks to her, we didn’t have to worry about a single detail. She kept us on schedule, coordinated transitions with our DJ and photographer, and made sure every vendor was aligned and organized.
What truly stood out was Kristi’s kind, thoughtful, and calming presence. She made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable, allowing us to be fully present and soak in every moment.
We couldn’t recommend Joyful Details enough—Kristi was an absolute joy to work with, and we’re so grateful for everything she did to make our wedding perfect!
From start to finish, Kristi flawlessly executed our wedding weekend and brought our vision for the big day to life. Her meticulous attention to detail and calm, organized approach gave us complete peace of mind throughout the planning process and especially on the big day.
Kristi seamlessly coordinated with all of our vendors, managed the schedule perfectly, and ensured that every little detail was handled with care.
She truly went above and beyond to make our wedding not only beautiful but stress-free. We can’t recommend her enough—Kristi, you were fabulous, and we are forever grateful for everything you did to make our day unforgettable!!
Words cannot describe how highly I recommend Kristi as a wedding coordinator! She is so kind, calm, and completely on top of everything. She answered any and every question we had from the time we booked with her until the wedding day. On the day of, she managed everything so perfectly so my husband and I could have an stress-free day. My parents also loved her. :) You won’t regret entrusting your wedding day to Kristi!
If you’re reading this review just stop right here and book Kristi at Joyful Details. She has hundreds of 5 star reviews and that is because she is the absolute best wedding coordinator to work with. She answers every text/call/question/help/advice you name it and she is on top of it. We loved our experience with her and couldn’t imagine not having her coordinate everything with our wedding. The day of the wedding, Kristi and her team were fantastic. Every detail every minute she was on top of it, kept the wedding schedule on time and everyone at our wedding said it was one of the best they have ever been to. Thank you Kristi and Joyful Details for everything you have done months leading up to the wedding and the day of. You and your team made our wedding day extra special and we are forever grateful for you :)
Book Kristi from Joyful Details as your wedding coordinator! Kristi is such a calming presence and that is exactly the kind of attitude needed in the days leading up to and on the day of the wedding. She pays attention to detail, gives good advice, and executes according to your vision. She is also very responsive and patient. If I ever need to use event planning and coordination services I will certainly reach back out to Kristi.
Having Kristi as our wedding planner was the best decision! From the very beginning of the planning process, she was a lifesaver. Her kindness and positive attitude made a potentially overwhelming experience enjoyable.
Kristi was incredibly organized and on top of everything. She consistently arrived early for meetings and appointments, which put us at ease knowing things would run smoothly.
In the lead-up to the wedding, she was our rock. She helped us navigate every detail, from finding the perfect vendors to finalizing the timeline. We never felt like a question or request was too much trouble.
On the wedding day itself, Kristi and her assistant were like magicians. Kristi handled everything seamlessly behind the scenes, allowing us to truly focus on celebrating with our loved ones. We can't thank her enough for making our dream wedding a reality.
Booking Joyful Details was one of the best decisions I made for our wedding. Kristi was an absolute gem as our month-of coordinator for the wedding! Kristi made the wedding planning process easy and fun. She is extremely organized, professional and solution-oriented. Right from the initial consultation, Kristi went the extra mile—having both a phone call and meeting me in person for coffee to understand my vision. This personal connection meant the world and assured me I was in good hands. Kristi provided very detailed responses to all my questions and offered valuable advice. In the critical month leading up to the big day, she effortlessly took charge, coordinating with vendors, creating a meticulous timeline, and ensuring every detail was perfect. On the wedding day, Kristi allowed us to fully be present and stress free. Kristi and her team took care of the details to make our wedding day PERFECT. I couldn't be happier with her services!
Kristi was our coordinator for our wedding earlier this month. She has such a calming presence that even when I was stressed about something or something needed to be handled day of she took care of it without adding any additional stress. She was always so helpful with providing feedback and answering all of my questions. She went above and beyond to make our wedding day beautiful. I would highly recommend working with Kristi!
Kristi was absolutely amazing! I used Joyful Details for month of coordination for my wedding. She went above and beyond expectations and was so helpful throughout the process over the span of a year! She was so consistent and quick to respond to all emails not just me but all the vendors involved. She has such calming energy, so any anxiety I had was put to ease! Loved her. Id recommend her for any event and would gladly use her in the future!!!
I have been working with Kristi for about a year and a half to plan our Christmas wedding! I highly recommend Kristi to help with your wedding or any other event!! She was very professional and lovely to work with through out the process of planning my dream Christmas wedding! Kristi expertises were soo helpful, whenever I had any kind of question, she responded fast and with the helpful tips and advice I needed. She is very sweet and I absolutely loved working with her! She made our dream wedding come true and I couldn’t be happier! Thank you again Kristi for making our wedding day go soo smooth and easy for us! Much love!
Bella & Josh
We could not have had the wedding we had without Kristi. As we don’t live in Austin, we relied on Kristi for everything, from recommending vendors to coordinating conversations to managing our anxiety. Every step of the way, we were so glad we went with Kristi. She even picked up a few of our personal décor items a few days before the wedding so we didn’t have to worry about getting them to the venue on the day. We had a perfect wedding, and it’s all thanks to Kristi.
We had an absolute amazing experience working with Kristi. She provided month-of services for us and was very helpful leading up to the wedding, responding promptly to all of my questions and attending our final meeting. She is very detailed and there were several small things she helped me catch that I had forgotten/missed leading up to the wedding. She helped direct us through a chaotic dress rehearsal and we would have been totally lost without her! The day of the wedding, I was actually able to enjoy my wedding and not worry about any of the logistics- everything went incredibly smoothy thanks to Kristi and her team. When we had an unexpected dress mishap, she was there to offer her help. She is incredibly kind and a joy to work with it. Definitely recommend her without hesitation!
We LOVE Kristi!! She was the perfect day of coordinator for our wedding and provided exactly what we needed during the planning process (touch points when we were feeling stressed, lots of planning tools and supports, guidance on trickier decisions), and on the big day - namely, confidence that I didn't need to worry about anything because Kristi had it covered. She's also just a delight!! She was so reassuring and thoughtful in her support and anytime I was unsure what was next, she was right there with a smiling face. We heard from a lot of vendors that our venue was particularly challenging because of a tight set-up and teardown timeline - Kristi kept us right on schedule without ever making us feel like we had to hurry through anything. I interviewed 6 different day of coordinators, choosing Kristi because she didn't have restrictions on our communication during the planning process, I knew I would be working with her throughout the process and on our wedding day, and because of her many other amazing reviews. Don't overthink it! Go with Kristi!
This was our 2nd wedding using Kristi at Joyful Details. The first wedding was at Commodore Perry in Austin and our most recent at Two Wishes Ranch in Lockhart. Each a totally different venue and style proving she can work anywhere with anyone. She kept us organized and on schedule throughout the planning process offering tips and adding details. Kristi is always accessible (which is a huge plus during wedding planning), has a lot of contacts, goes above and beyond and remains calm through any crisis, big or small. There’s a reason this company is called Joyful Details and we highly recommend using Kristi. You won’t be disappointed.
Kristi was amazing - she worked with both my sister and I on separate weddings just a few years apart and we would recommend her to everyone! She is great at keeping everyone calm and relaxed during a stressful time and has connections with everyone, making her so easy to work with.
On our wedding day we were able to be in the present moment and enjoy ourselves without worrying because we knew Kristi would take care of anything that needed to be taken care of. She was so friendly and cheerful and easy to work with and a good listener. Before the wedding, she provided wonderful recommendations, was responsive in answering our many questions, and made sure that we didn't forget anything. She was very knowledgeable about Austin weddings. She was so organized on the wedding day that there wasn't much cleanup to do at the end. On the day after our wedding both of our moms said they were impressed with Kristi and her assistant and said "wow, they were definitely worth it!"
Kristi was literally the best thing I ever did for my wedding! (Other than say yes to my husband) We had weather alternative plans change, venue challenges & she made it all look easy. She saved my sanity, money and I would use her again in a heart beat. Wish I could give her 100 stars ⭐️
Kristi is an Angel on earth! Anyone who knows me, KNOWS I am a VERY hands-on person in everything I do. I simply do not let others take control because I feel like I get anxiety that people will do it wrong or I can do it better. However, Kristi was able to make me feel so calm and at peace. She was there for every detail I needed, big or small. She was great with communication for both myself and my vendors. She made me feel like I could trust her to execute things well and I was able to actually relax and enjoy my wedding day. You NEED her!
Kristi was so helpful with sending me vendor recommendations leading up to our event, and creating a perfect timeline for us for the day of. She did an excellent job setting up our decor, ensuring we were enjoying everything on the day of, and was so kind to us and our families. I would recommend her to anybody looking for someone personable, professional, and extremely helpful to make wedding planning stress free and your wedding day run smoothly!!
Kristi truly was the best coordinator we could ask for. Everything ran so smoothly and she and her team were so easy to work with. Everything went perfectly and if it didnt, I didnt know about it. I truly felt like I had zero to worry about during the day. I cannot recommend her services enough. She was so quick to respond to all of my millions of questions leading up to the wedding and was so accommodating to everything. I was recommended by a previous couple to use her and am so happy we did. Couldnt have asked for better! In addition, she set up the reception so beautifully. Everything was just as I envisioned and better.
Our wedding was made so easy and enjoyable thanks greatly to Joyful Details!! Kristi and her team were amazingly accessible and supportive through a very busy and overwhelming time, making everything come together wonderfully. Many of our guests shared that our wedding was one of the best they had ever attended! Thank you for making our day truly special!
It was an absolute pleasure working with Kristi from start to finish! I would sum her up as calm and capable. Her presence on our wedding day really helped me to feel that everything was going to be fine. There was nothing too big or small for her to handle with ease. I felt totally in the right hands.
Leading up to our big day, Kristi was my go-to person with questions about anything - nothing was too silly or weird. She could help keep me grounded on where to start and what next steps should be. She was always so prompt in her responses and clear in her advice. I would have been lost without her.
I can promise you will not be disappointed if you work with Kristi. It was one of the best decisions I made!
Connecting with Kristi was the best decision that I made during the wedding planning process. She was one of the first vendors we booked. By the end of our first call, I felt such a feeling of relief knowing that we had professional guiding us through the process. I can't imagine how everything would have happened without her. She provided vendor recommendations, a monthly wedding checklist and made sure we were on track. As the wedding date approached, she confirmed and checked in with the vendors for us and she was available for all my questions—even napkin folds! The day of the wedding I was able to soak it in and enjoy getting ready with my friends without worrying about anything. It was stress free knowing that if there were any issues, it would be taken care of. If we needed anything or had questions they were there immediately. Kristi also has a very calming presence. She kept us on schedule, was on top of every detail, and super fun to work with. Everything went exactly as planned thanks to her and her team. I truly felt like she cared so much about making sure we had the best day and I’m so thankful that she was there to make our wedding perfect!
Getting married in greater Austin? Need guidance and all the vendor recommendations from someone experienced in the wedding industry? Then Kristi is the one for you! We signed with Kristi back in 2020 and it was the best decision we made! We couldn't be more thankful we had her by our side from day one, through the pandemic rescheduling process, and up until the big day that ended up being postponed by a year. Not only is Kristi the absolute sweetest person, she is professional, organized, knowledgeable, responsive and well connected in the industry. She is an overall must-have to guide you through your wedding planning journey. There are SO many small details to stay on top of and rather than letting it stress you out, let Kristi do the job so your wedding experience truly is joyful from the start.
Kristi was absolutely wonderful to work with, if you are looking for a wedding planner, book her now! She is so kind, helpful, professional and organized and we loved working with her from start to finish. She had great suggestions and ideas for vendors, timeline, placement, decor, all of it! She made sure our vendors had all of the information they needed on the day of, she arranged our decor and set up perfectly, made everything ran smoothly, then helped make sure everything was taken down and delivered back to us after. Even when there were some bumps (late guests, flower vases blown over by strong wind), I hardly knew about them because Kristi had it covered. I didn't worry about one thing on our wedding day because I knew Kristi had it handled. Thank you so much Kristi for helping make our day so special, we loved working with you!
How do you put 6 stars on this thing? The planning was old-hat for Kristi; she knew exactly what to do and how to execute. The best part was two-fold; 1, she was not afraid to tell us "Hey no, that idea probably won't work," and 2, she knew to ask vendors specific, detailed questions that we would not have even considered. Both of those are due to her amount of experience with wedding planning and her knowledge of what works and what does not.
On the actual day, I didn't have to worry about a thing. She directed everything, kept us on the timeline, and somehow did it all without us noticing. She even managed to get us fed between the ceremony and reception, which seriously got me through the night.
Plus, she's just plain nice. Stop searching, hire her, enjoy your wedding. Ours was as close to a fairy tale as real life gets, and that was in large part due to Kristi.
Kristi is absolutely amazing!!! We got engaged in Sep 2019 and started planning almost immediately. Ultimately COVID impacted our planned Nov 2020 wedding and Kristi helped us navigate the change to a Oct 2021 wedding. She had amazing vendor recommendations and day of she was so incredibly helpful. I actually cut my hand cutting our cake and within seconds Kristi was next to me putting a bandaid on my hand. We ultimately had our dream wedding and it would not have been possible without her!! Best wedding planner ever! <3
One of the first, and best decisions, we ever made in planning on wedding was hiring Kristi! She was extremely prompt in responding to emails along with way which made planning a long distance wedding in Austin so much easier. Everything ran smoothly, from the rehearsal to the wedding, thanks to Kristi and her team. Our guests were amazed on how perfect everything was and what a great night it was...all thanks to Kristi! Hiring Kristi is THE best decision you can make!
Kristi really went above and beyond! First off, we live 3.5 hours away from Austin and that alone was a challenge when putting things together and getting the right vendors for our special day. Kristi came in ready to listen to our vision, proposing a plan to get there and thus executing it to perfection. Our wedding was a dream! No stress the day of, every transition was smooth and perfectly handled. Kristi, we are so grateful for you!!
If getting married in Austin, but living in Dallas, wasn't a big enough challenge... add on the complexities around getting married during a resurgence of the pandemic! I can honestly say that hiring Kristi was the best choice we made in the entire planning process! She made me feel us feel so at ease throughout and helped put us in contact with her dream team of local vendors. On the day of Kristi and her team thought of everything and helped us ensure the day of would go smoothly. She arrived early, helped keep us both calm and pulled off the most amazing and special day, which we'll remember forever. If you're planning a wedding in Austin, the absolute first thing you should do is reach out to Kristi Treadwell.
Kristi was our wedding coordinator and made all of our wedding day dreams come true. I am the type of person who gets stressed/anxious very easily but thanks to Kristi our wedding day went SO smoothly and I was never once worried! She has so much experience with weddings and stays calm through it all. We knew she was the one we wanted to hire when we met her because she has the sweetest, most positive, and professional demeanor, and you can tell she loves what she does. She was also so knowledgeable and organized. We hired her for day of but she was available for so much more than that. She answered any questions we had throughout our engagement and always offered her help/recommendations. My wedding day was everything I ever wanted and I know it couldn’t have been as wonderful without Kristi. If you are on the fence about hiring a planner, don’t be! Kristi is the one for you!
If only it was possible to give more than 5 stars! Our experience with Kristi was absolutely amazing. We got in engaged at the end of 2019 and started wedding planning in 2020, soon to be met by disaster that was COVID. Kristi was with us every step of the way. Her communication was on point, frequent, and available to answer the MANY questions we had. She provided great vendor recommendations and advice on where we can make cost effective choices. So many of our wedding guests complimented on the execution of our wedding day and felt everything was smooth and timely. We had a relaxing and fun evening, all thanks to Kristi & her team. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
WOW - the word that comes to mind when I think about how well-executed our wedding day was! My fiance and I hired Kristi to be our day-of coordinator. at first we were on the fence, but a friend of mine had heavily endorced Kristi. we ended up going for it and I AM SO HAPPY WE DID.
I never even really knew Kristi was there. She was So calm, cool and collected, I Am certain things went wrong (there is always room for error in situations like that), but I had no idea if they did or not, because if they did, they were handled on the spot in an effective way.
Kristi came with an assistant who was just as amazing.
During our long photo session, her assistant asked if i needed anything from inside, water, what have you grabbed it for me, brought it out, etc.
During the processional, they were standing with us, telling people when to walk out, everything was calm, peaceful, amazing.
this kept my nerves totally under control- it felt like, graduation day and your favorite teacher being there behind the curtain with you. Cheering you on, and helping you make those steps into your future.
leading up to the wedding- Kristi supplied support where needed (based on what we chose when we signed her contract options) and that was all amazing and executed perfectly as well.
I have already been bragging about her on instagram but i needed to take to the Knot as well and leave her this shining review, we could not have chosen a better Day Of Coordinator.
Do yourself a favor, your family friends and Fiance will thank you!
Look no further for your wedding coordinator! Joyful Details is the BEST of the BEST and not overpriced!
Kristi went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect from start to finish. Our guests were extremely complimentary about how smoothly everything went and that there was never any down time at the wedding.
Leading up to my wedding, Kristi did an amazing job at communicating and organizing all the details for me. She responded to every one of my questions (email and phone calls) and offered the best advice on vendors, decor, layout, etc. Also, she planned and provided us with our entire wedding day schedule and designed the layout of the wedding, which she shared with us to approve and make changes as needed.
When I first booked Kristi, she provided me a checklist, which was a lifesaver. Planning a wedding is no easy task and the checklist kept me on track to ensure I wasn’t missing anything.
On the day of the wedding, Kristi set everything up to the way we requested and checked in on me periodically. She was in contact with all my vendors on my wedding day and made sure everything went smoothly. I could enjoy every minute of my big day because I knew she had everything handled for me.
Kristi went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t have been happier with how our wedding turned out. She truly is the best and you will not be disappointed. After the wedding, all our guests raved that is was the best wedding they had ever have been too. Thank you so much Joyful Details for everything! You deserve more than 5 stars!
Kristi did such a wonderful job as our day of planner! She was attentive, organized, and helped to make our day run smoothly. She was also so helpful in the month leading up to our wedding— coordinating our walkthrough, reaching out to vendors to tie up loose ends, answering my constant stream of emails, etc. I highly recommend hiring Kristi as your planner— she is awesome!
Kristi is worth every penny and more. She was my favorite vendor and should be charging way more for her services! Seriously, book her if you can, you will not regret it.
My husband and I hired Kristi back in January of 2019 for our October 2020 wedding. I loved that she had UNLIMITED COMMUNICATION. I wrote that in all caps because it is so important! You don't know how much you don't know about planning a wedding until you start. A lot of other vendors have limits to the amount of emails or texts you can send. I probably emailed Kristi weekly and she always responded quickly and offered incredible advice and insight. Additionally, Kristi is the NICEST, CALMEST, most PATIENT person I have ever met - exactly what you need when you're a strung out bride.
Not only was she incredibly helpful during the original planning process, but Kristi really stepped up to the plate when COVID hit. She was kind, caring, compassionate, and supportive. Other brides had planners who actually cancelled on them or told them they had to limit their guest count or how they could do things, but Kristi was nothing but encouraging and supportive. I cannot thank you enough for all the kindness she showed me during that time.
On the wedding day itself, Kristi performed her duties flawlessly and my wedding was like a dream. I mean it when I say that Krisit was the best choice I made for my wedding, and my husband agrees. Book her now!
Kristi was the best decision that we made for our wedding. She has really great relationships with the best vendors in Austin and throughout the wedding planning process, she gave us the greatest advice and recommendations. Also, she has an amazing, calming presence that everyone needs in their life. On the day of our wedding, I can't think of one time that I felt stressed out or overwhelmed because Kristi handled everything like a boss. She is organized, knowledgeable, creative and level headed. I think my husband would follow Kristi over a cliff, he loved her so much. Do yourself a favor and hire Kristi!
Kristi is truly more than I could have ever asked for. She went above and beyond to help me with my wedding and I couldn't have gotten through it without her. She is attentive, thought of every detail I didn't and helped us out so much with vendor communication and organization. Day of she was absolutely fantastic and made sure everything ran smoothly. She is 100% a must-hire for anyone planning a wedding!
Kristi is AMAZING!!!! She truly went above and beyond to make our special day perfect! Even though we hired her as a "month of coordinator" she was available throughout our ENTIRE year and a half engagement to check in, answer questions, offer suggestions.. We had to reschedule our original date due to Covid and Kristi was there to help us every step of the way. She gave advice, helped us come up with a plan B, rescheduled vendors, and even called to check on how I was doing during the difficult times. I seriously do not know what we would have done without her!! Kristi is extremely professional and one of the main reasons I felt so calm on my wedding day! I had 100% faith that she would make sure our day was perfect -- and it was! She made sure every detail was thought through so that our wedding day was everything we could have imagined and more! I cannot put into words how much we appreciate her!!
We originally started our wedding planning with Kristi in 2019, pretty shortly after getting engaged in March 2019. We told my mom we didn’t want a wedding planner, but against our wishes she spent a day vetting people, one which was Kristi. I humored my mom and call called the various planners and after I talked to Kristi I knew I didn’t need to talk to anyone else. Kristi is patient, calm spirited, and knows how to put an anxious over planning bride at peace. As you can imagine, our 2020 wedding didn’t happen, but Kristi was there every step of the way helping us make all the vendor movements and finding a new venue.
Fast forward to our 2021 wedding that FINALLY occurred this past weekend. A couple months prior to the wedding Kristi had found out our charter bus company went out of business and before letting me know she handled all the logistics figuring out who took over our contract to not stress me out. She is a saint and was beyond helpful with all the madness that is a COVID wedding. On the day of the wedding, we brought a couple of boxes full of things, and being my micromanaging self, I kept asking Kristi if she’d found everything or needed help knowing where things were/needed to go. She assured me they had everything and made sure to let me sit back and relax. Right before I walked down the aisle I got lipstick all over my wedding dress, which Kristi quickly came to my rescue and saved the day getting the lipstick off. There are countless memories and stories I could say about how amazing Kristi is, and as glad we are that our wedding is finally over, we’re sad that means our days spent with Kristi are over. Outside of her being an amazing wedding planner, she is an even better person.
If anyone is on the fence about getting a planner or just looking for the right one, you will not regret reaching out to Kristi. I could not recommend her more.
I honestly can't have imagined our wedding without Kristi. From the beginning, her competitive pricing and our initial conversation with her reassured us that we made the right decision. She took over communication with our vendors in the month leading up to her wedding which is the BEST feeling. I felt that she truly had my back and was looking out for our best interest. She made sure all vendors were set before the wedding day which had us going into wedding week with ease. The day of the wedding, she was INCREDIBLE. She was calm and cheerful the entire day, and made sure we were on time with everything. To Joe andI, everything went perfectly and I know she put in a lot of work to make sure we had absolutely NOTHING to stress over. Our family was also raving about her professionalism and efficiency the entire day. HIGHLY recommend.
Kristi is the best money we've spent on our wedding. She is professional, kind and has such a calm, reassuring presence. She is available any time we need help or advice. And most importantly, as we had to postpone our 3/21 wedding due to the coronavirus, Kristi was with us every step of the way. She quickly followed up with all our vendors to get them on board with our new date and we didn't lose a dime. This situation could have been a nightmare but she made it seamless. If you are considering Kristi for a coordinator or planner, DO IT!
Kristi was hands down one of the best decisions we made when it came to picking vendors. We honestly would have lost our minds without her. Her kindness, professionalism, attention to detail and patience was evident in everything she did and every interaction we had. There was literally not a single time we called her that she did not answer the phone. She was the constant in all the craziness leading up to our big day. On the day of our wedding we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. Her energy and demeanor are so calming that just by being around her you know that everything is going to be ok. Not only is she amazing at what she does she is an amazing person and an absolute joy to work with. We recommend not looking elsewhere when choosing a day of coordinator or wedding planner. You will not be disappointed!!
Kristi was amazing! She made the day go so smoothly! We barely had to anything on our wedding day which made us feel so calm throughout the day! She is very well known and each of our other vendors also raved about her when I told them who our coordinator was! I cannot recommend her enough!
This week, someone asked me for “wedding planning advice” - I only had to think for a second before “HIRE A PLANNER” came out of my mouth. To be honest, after getting engaged - I thought I could handle the planning thing - I had a checklist from the Knot and a fiancé who was just as excited about the details as I was. However, about two weeks in and feeling extremely overwhelmed at ALL of the Austin vendors *for literally everything* - I reached out to Kristi.
Upon meeting her - her organization and knowledge of all things wedding sold me. She is able to share advice from her 10+ years of planning - knowing what works well, what has been a disaster in the past, and tips on how to save money! I was planning my wedding far away from family and having Kristi at all of our appointments was a Godsend. She provided some mom-like wisdom when I just could not make a decision. Most importantly, Kristi kept my husband and I on track letting us know the tasks and decisions that needed to be completed each week/month.
When wedding day came, everything was absolutely perfect - if there was something wrong, I didn’t know about it because Kristi had it taken care of behind the scenes. She truly made the day so stress free!!
I really can’t recommend Kristi enough. There is a reason she only has 5-star reviews on here, she is the best.
HIRE KRISTI AS YOUR PLANNER :)
Kristi is wonderful! We used her month of services. She was so helpful and patient with my mother and me. Her services were invaluable!
Kristi is absolutely fabulous! My sister used her for her wedding last December and we used her again this year for our November wedding. Once again she was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond. She is so easy to work with. We used her day of event services and she made the months leading up to the wedding and the big day so much easier. She was always super fast to respond and incredibly professional. 100% would recommend her to anyone thinking about planning an event!
Words cannot describe how incredible Kristi is. She went above and beyond in every small detail. I never though we could have a wedding without any hitches and she made that happen! We cannot thank her enough.
I was MOB for a June wedding and Kristi was amazing. She is low key, which means she works well with others, not just the wedding couple and families but the caterers, photographer, etc. The day of, she was constantly anticipating and working quietly to make everything go smoothly. When the party was over, we were packed up and ready to go in amazing time. Loved the whole experience. Thanks, Kristi!
Whitney with Joyful Details was my Lead Planner for my wedding. I trusted her completely before hiring Joyful Details since we had taught together in Austin. She is SO organized, punctual, knowledgable, and very detail oriented. When I first got engaged, I expressed the wedding vibe that I was going for while trying to pick me a venue. She sent me a very thorough slideshow that had about 15-20 venues in the surrounding area that she thought I could be happy with pictures and description of each. I ended up picking my 3 favorites from the list, touring the venues, then picking. This really describes how easy she made the whole wedding planning process for me. I did the less expensive of the 2 packages, so I did a lot on my own still, but she definitely gave me all of the tools I needed to make the right decisions and was their to guide me and give advice every step of the way. When I would receive quotes from vendors, I would send them to her and she would give me tips on how to potentially get prices down. Our wedding day went FLAWLESSLY and I told Whitney after that if anything didn't go perfectly, we didn't see it at all :) I would hire Joyful Details again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them for your wedding day. Thanks Whitney & Kristi for all you ladies do!
I wish I could give 10 more stars! Kristi and her assistant were so helpful on our wedding day and before. Leading up to the wedding, Kristi was always available and always super helpful in guiding my mom and I when it came to what to do next or who to call. My first impression when meeting Kristi, is that she was so calm and sweet. I knew that if there were wedding jitters, stress, fires to put out, or last minute changes, she would be the best person to have there! We had a bad wedding planner/coordinator experience last year for my brother's wedding (different planning company), and we expressed any and all concerns we had when trying to find a new coordinator for my wedding this year. Kristi exceeded all expectations and made sure everything was under control and taken care of. Joyful details helped with everything from vendor recommendations, to calling/coordinating meetings/timeline with vendors, helping with my difficult bustle, decorating and assembling the venue with our decor and table arrangements and making it look incredible! Kristi offered up her time and expertise with just about anything and everything. I will always recommend Kristi to any family, friends, or strangers!
Kristi is every bride and groom's dream for managing weddings. Every time we met with vendors or she had questions for me, she always did it with a smile and it always felt so genuine (which I think is hard to find in the wedding industry). We had a few not so fun conversations with a vendor and she would always take care of it and come up with alternate solutions with the vendors. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone needing a coordinator!!! I want to do it all over again <3
Kristi at Joyful Details was such a pleasure to work with! We hired Kristi as a day-of coordinator for our wedding. Throughout the process, she was professional and responsive to all of our questions and requests even creating a timeline for the day of the wedding and sending it to all of our vendors. On the wedding day, she ensured that everything went smoothly, including trouble shooting last-minute speeches, leftover alcohol, among many other things. We would highly recommend working with Kristi for your wedding. She was simply amazing!
Kristi's hard working spirit and sweet, bubbly disposition helped give us such peace of mind on our wedding day, and we are so happy with our choice to work with her! Not only did she go the extra mile on the wedding day itself (when she kept everyone on schedule and put out fires that I didn't know were happening), but also in the days and weeks leading up to the wedding. She went above and beyond coordinating schedules and layouts with our venue and the other vendors, but she also dealt weather problems as the day got closer. Then, when our tent rental company set up a horrendous eye-sore of a tent, she was there to figure out a solution and offer her advice.
I can not recommend Kristi enough! It’s hard to even find somewhere to start. While planning she gave us great insight into different vendors, tips on how to save money, and answered a million of my questions. She helped me communicate between all of my vendors and created a perfect timeline for our wedding day which is SO important. The day of the wedding she was just a dream! I didn’t have to think about anything other than marrying my best friend. Kristi’s calm demeanor and patience was exactly what I needed. Kristi honestly made me feel more comfortable moments before walking down the aisle than my mother did! Another great thing about hiring Kristi was that my bridesmaid who got married 2 weeks after me used her as well. It was great getting to work with her again as a bridesmaid!
We hired Kristi for our day-of coordinator, and I honestly don’t know what we would have done without her! After a couple of quick phone calls, she knew exactly what we wanted and handled everything perfectly. She is so professional, but also sweet and thoughtful - always a step ahead, anticipating our needs before we even thought to ask! She is the BEST!
Kristi is amazing! She is so kind, thoughtful and pays attention to every detail! We loved working with her. Thank you Kristi for making our special day as less stressful at possible!
