Kendall and the rest of the KPEP team were absolutely outstanding. Throughout the entire wedding planning process, I constantly vocalized, "I don't know how I would be handling this if it weren't for KPEP." All weddings have their own unique hurdles, but I personally feel ours took the cake. We planned during a global pandemic and with my now husband on a prolonged deployment. With every swing the world had to offer, Kendall took it in stride and had a solution for us in no time. She kept me calm and collected throughout the entire process, never allowing me to settle for a wedding that was anything short of our dream. he craziest part was even during my lowest amount of patience and control, Kendall thanked ME for remaining kind and staying faithful. This is just a testament to her ability to do her job well and continue to minister to me through the gifts God gave her. Our wedding was beautiful, perfect, and better than I had ever imagined. This surely is credited to Kendall and KPEP's hand in our process. I can't say enough good things about her! They are well worth the hire.
Let me begin by saying I absolutely hate planning anything, and Kendall and her team are literal angels. My dad, having begun the wedding planning process as a typical skeptical dad, now loves Kendall and her team so much that he frequently stops by when he’s in the area just to say hey! I just cannot begin to describe what a lifesaver they have been for us—I knew that our wedding day would be the best day of our lives, but Kendall made sure it was the best day of my parents’ lives as well! Kendall and her team were relentlessly upbeat and optimistic no matter what happened. She did everything I didn’t want to do, made every decision I didn’t want to make, and had every conversation I didn’t want to have! Kendall dealt with some ridiculous situations with such patience and compassion that it made all the difference in the world to us. In the weeks leading up to our wedding, Kendall was texting me almost daily making sure that I wasn’t stressed out and that she was able to take as much as possible off my plate. I had so much anxiety about our wedding, and when it came to our actual wedding day, I can’t think of a single think that I worried about. I can’t recall having a single negative thought the entire day! I know she and her team are very busy, but they always made me feel like they had all the time in the world for me! I think the constant communication and ease with which we were able to talk about anything was a huge factor in the day turning out exactly as we’d hoped it would be. Would work with them again in a heartbeat!!
I recently put an album of wedding photos together and was reminded what a perfect wedding day we had! A large part of the success of the day was because of Kendall Poole and her team! We are so thankful to these ladies and everything they did for us! Each time we met with Kendall, we knew our happiness and dream for our perfect wedding day was her priority! She always listened intently as we discussed our wishes and we were happy to also have her expert suggestions! We were relieved to have her handling so many details in the months and weeks leading up to the wedding. The day of the wedding was perfect, thanks to Kendall’s guidance. I loved having her there to handle the details, so my new husband and I could enjoy celebrating with family and friends! We could not be happier with our day! If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further than the KPEP team!
I am very dissatisfied with the services I received on my wedding day. As we all know we are not the only client a person has, but we should feel that way. I never felt she had my best interest at heart. The meetings were always rushed and geared to making payments. I always felt she was not listening. And turns out everything I did not want at my wedding was at my wedding. During the consultation, I was told the wedding package I paid for she would be right there on the wedding day. Yes, she was at the venue, but not helping with organizing my day. I missed out on the one day I can never get back because I was constantly bothered by what should be done. I agreed to do the first look photo session and I stood outside 2 hours or more with my husband waiting to take pictures. That in its self took away from the moment. My guests were able to see me before the wedding, just seating on a bench waiting and to add no pictures were being taken. There was no direction at my wedding. And, I have waited 6 weeks or more hoping the photos would show me something different from my memories but they don't. They cause more pain. We were not given the opportunity for family and friends to toast, so many people stated they did not see us cut the cake, all because there was no direction. I constantly asked where is this, why are we not doing this and no one could provided an answer. I was brushed off like always from day one. I asked Kendall several questions and she always ignored me. For example, on rehearsal day I asked why is the singer, singing to strings and she got in her truck and dismissed it. And now that I watch the ceremony video I can't understand why she thought that was tasteful. The singer has a beautiful voice but the song was not for that. She is not the best listener, maybe it was because she knew she could not fulfill my dream and want to make me think she could. This review can't begin to explain how terrible the services were. I wish I never had a wedding... This heartache was not worth it... Every vendor she suggested did not meet my expectations... I feel wedding planners should be more personal and dedicated, not about money and you should not take on more than they can handle. By the way, she did not follow up with me about my experience.. Maybe because she knew I had a horrible experience.. And she is still not available to talk till this day... Question, why didn't I let her go from day one (12-month headache)?
Could not have had a better wedding day without the KPEP Team (Anna Brittain, Kendall, and Hanna). Having a wedding planner is the best decision a bride can make, but having the KPEP team leading the way is the ONLY way for brides. If you truly want to be stress free, have tasks handled that you would not think about on your own, and much more (from paying vendors, contacting vendors [so you don’t have to], to packing the leave car) go with KPEP. Through the entire planning process Anna Brittain and Kendall were always the a phone call away to answer any questions or concerns my groom and I had. Any issues that that arose were addressed immediately with a solution. On our wedding day everything was executed promptly and professionally and went off without a hitch. KPEP is also a one-stop-shop for planning, *invites (and other paper products), branding, and gifts.
*We worked with KPEP for our invitations.
We couldn’t be happier!! Happy to be a KPEP Bride! Thanks Y’all!!!
P.S. I had my own stressful moments that came naturally with the wedding planning process. My “moments” had nothing to do with KPEP and their wedding planning skills. They did a great job!
Kendall made my dream wedding a reality! She and her team are very easy to work with and know what they're doing. Kendall has been doing this for years and wedding planning is definitely her calling. I basically told Kendall what I envisioned and she made it happen. Nothing but good things so say about this sweet lady!
Your wedding day should be one of the happiest days of your lives, unfortunately, it can also be one of the most stressful! Kendall and her team handled everything! They made it to where all we had to do was "get married." With my parents being over two hours away, I wanted to make sure that they too got to enjoy this special day as much as we did! Kendall made that happen and our wedding was a dream come true! Everything was perfect and exactly what we wanted! We couldn't have done that without the help of KPEP and I was so proud to be a KPEP bride! One mention of Kendall's name and you just knew that you would be well taken care of!! So blessed and lucky to have been able to work with you and your wonderful team!! We will forever be grateful!

Kendall and team are worth every penny, and then some! I am a full-time Physical Therapy student with an extremely difficult course load and traveling fiancé. Kendall and her team were an absolute Godsend to my fiancé and I, while we worked hectic schedules and planned our wedding. If I needed help with anything, I could text one of three planners at any hour and always got help, a nice response and every situation was handled. We were beyond blessed to be able to work with KPEP and know that the only reason our wedding was as gorgeous and perfect as it was is because of her team's hard work and "go above and beyond" attitude! I highly recommend working with Kendall and her team for any future events you may have. Just know that when Kendall says "KPEP on it", she means it ya'll!! :)

My experience with KPEP could not have possibly been better. From my first email to Kendall to weeks after my wedding, the team was so engaged and focused on transforming my wedding into the wedding of my dreams. On days when I would be stressed or nervous about something, Kendall was so dialed in and would call and text me just to check-in and discuss things. Never was I unable to reach her to discuss any concerns I had regarding the wedding planning process. Because of KPEP, planning my wedding was FUN and enjoyable. The team was able to give me so much advice to do things the right way and ease stress. They followed through on everything they said they would and definitely exceeded expectations, as they had promised! My wedding day was stress free, beautiful, and I wouldn't have changed a thing about it. I have KPEP to thank for the most amazing day of my life and hope that many other brides have the same opportunity that I had to build the wedding of their dreams with this talented and fun team!
i cannot say enough amazing things about Kendall.
She has a true calling for what she does. As a chronically late, habitual worrier Kendall was the best thing that ever happened to our wedding. She kept me calm, cool, and collected- and on time for our wedding weekend. Working full-time and going back to school full-time, KP handled everything for us! She even was there as a shoulder to cry on and ear to listen to when the eventual wedding drama came about. We were so blessed to her work with us. She is a true gift to brides everywhere.
KPEP was absolutely phenomenal! They made my wedding day beyond what I could have ever imagined! All of the special little touches, amazing staff, and the opportunity to sit back, take it all in without worrying about every little detail was worth every penny! I highly recommend them to anyone! I could not have done it without their talent and creativity!
Our wedding was everything and more thanks to Kendall and her team, Kendall is dedicated to her clients and made all our wishes come true! Not only was she my wedding planner and sometimes therapist, she has become a friend to my husband and I! If you want your fairytale wedding, KPEP is the way to go!
Kendall and her group are amazing! They focus on every detail and make your vision for your wedding a reality. They are full of great ideas and give very good advice. They will be there with you through every step of the way and think of things you never thought of! Kendall pays very close attention to detail. Everything for my wedding was taken care of in a prospective manner, and by the time you start thinking of something that needs to be done, Kendall has already taken care of it!
You won't regret hiring her!!!
KPEP did a fantastic job helping me with everything. I had no stress at all during the entire engagement, highly recommend!
From day one, Kendall told us, "You won't really know what you're paying me for until after the wedding"... She was so right! It wasn't until we were about a week or so away from the wedding that we started to really figure out how much Kendall meant to us. We were so CALM! We had so many family members and friends in from out of state and you would think we would be stressed about so many little details leading up to the big day (and by we, I mostly mean me - the bride)... But honestly, everything was SO easy! We trusted Kendall with every detail and everything went absolutely perfectly!
The day of the wedding we both never had to worry about one thing. In fact, we never even knew what TIME it was - until Kendall told us we had to walk down the aisle! It was an absolutely perfect wedding and we couldn't have done it without her and her team. :)
Kendall was my "fairy wedding planner" and perfect to work with when we planned a wedding in my hometown and I lived 6 hours away. She constantly had creative idea after idea and when I would tell her something I liked she knew exactly how to incorporate it. If I didn't know something she would fill me in and then set up appointments for me to meet with people or vendors that day, and this would be on a Saturday that I had just come into town! She even managed to accommodate my husbands crazy menu request of fried bologna sandwiches and blackberry cobbler. And being someone who is a little OCD it was a relief to be able to hand things over to her and know it was going to get done and to be done great! Another really important thing is that she helped me stay within my budget. My wedding would not have been as perfect if it hadn't been for Kendall!!
Kendall helped make my vision come true on the day of the wedding. Couldn't have done it without her.
I was so blessed to have met Kendall when she was working for my reception veunue! Little did I know, she was about to venture off into independent event planning! I was upset to hear that she was leaving her job at the reception site, but to my pleasure, Kendall said she had made a commitment to us and would still work with us on every little detail of the wedding! And she did just that! My semester was full of working 30 hrs a week, being a full time grad student with graduate assistantship, and trying to plan a wedding! I don't know what I would have done without Kendall being there whenever I needed her! Even on the day of the rehearsal dinner, Kendall came to my rescue and made all of our place cards (which I thought I would have time for... Boy was I wrong!). The day of the wedding could not have run more smoothly! Kendall made sure that every little detail was absolutely perfect for us and guided us through every step of the day! I'm so happy for her and her new adventure with Kendall Poole Event Planning. I would highly recommend that you not skip out on meeting precious Kendall and having the opportunity to work with her during your special event!
