Kismet Event Group

Beth at Kismet was the best investment we made during our entire wedding planning process. From our first meeting, we knew she would be creative, down to earth, organized and provide real advise to us throughout the process. I planned my MN wedding from Chicago and Beth was always available to attend meetings with my mother on my behalf of me since I couldn’t be there. On top of being professional, Beth’s personality is amazing. She is always positive, funny and helpful. The wedding day went off without a hitch and we owe that to all the hard work Beth put in. 110% recommend Beth and Kismet to anyone looking to simplify the wedding planning process and have someone fun to help you along the way.

The day and the whole year of planning could not have gone more smooth with Beth and Kismet Group! She was always available for an email or meeting to chat about any wedding decisions. This was the first wedding in my family and my finances so we had no clue what we were doing! Only a few minor hiccups the day of and Beth said, "not a problem" to everything and fixed it right away and no one noticed. She is kind, caring and a fun person to work with. I always appreciated her opinion when I needed help making decisions. Her experience in the wedding planning field shows! I would definitely recommend her to anyone that is hoping to have a stress free planning and day of event! Thank you Beth for all you did you tremendous effort did not go unnoticed:)

Kismet event group was amazing! Made everything so easy and they were a joy to be around. I would recommend them to anyone looking for help!!!!

Beth Rocks! The Best Ever!

Partnering with Beth on weddings has been a wonderful experience! She is very knowledgeable, kind, flexible, and fun! She goes above and beyond for her clients and any couple would be lucky to have her as their planner.

I have worked with Beth both professionally and personally and have to say she is one of the VERY BEST!! She brings so much experience and knowledge to every event she does and is just a pleasure to work with always.

We love working with Kismet! They always bring a great and fun attitude. :)

Beth and Lisa were terrific to work with and I would recommend them to anyone looking for help on their wedding day. My husband and I didn't have to worry about anything and were able to enjoy the day :)

Beth and her team does it right! Easy to work with and on top of everything. They make sure the day goes smooth for the bride and groom. Highly recommend Kismet Event Group for future weddings and event.

I have worked with Beth at Kismet for years! She is incredibly talented at what she does, no detail goes un noticed and to top it off she is as sweet as can be. Even during a stressful moment , she has a smile plastered across her face and makes it seems like a breeze. Hand down I would hire her in a heart beat if I was planning my wedding.

Absolutely everything about Beth, and her team at Kismet, was fantastic! I cannot imagine what we would have done without them!! Every request was seamlessly met, and they truly do EVERYTHING to make your day run smoothly. Beth has an infectiously great attitude, and is readily available whenever you need her. The team at Kismet was not only assisting me, but my parents, and other wedding party individuals as well. Talk about multi-tasking! Hiring Beth and Kismet was one of the BEST decisions made in the wedding-planning process. What a gem!! HIRE BETH AND HER TEAM FROM KISMET!!! You may regret it if you don't.

Beth and her team were absolutely amazing! She came along to our vendor meetings that we requested, and provided great insights by asking questions we wouldn't have even thought of. My biggest thing was the day of I wanted to truly enjoy the day and not worry about a single thing - that definitely happened as I trusted Beth 110% to handle anything that didn't go according to plan and I never had any doubt that she would make the best decisions. She also took the time to get to know my husband and I, which allowed her to make decisions that she knew we would love. She had great recommendations for all vendors we contacted, and it resulted in us talking to them once to make sure we liked them, and not having to spend extra time talking to other vendors to determine who was the best one. Overall, when I am asked now about if having a wedding planner is worth it, I without any hesitation say ABSOLUTELY. She provided great advice during the wedding planning process, and let my husband I relax and soak in our wedding day. She took care of all the logistics for us. Plus, she was so fun to be around and has a calming presence that is contagious!

Beth was amazing to work with. She was so helpful in providing reassurances and advice during the planning. I never would have had such a well thought out and helpful timeline without her. On the day of it was such a relief to have someone else do the decor set up and breakdown. Everything looked beautiful and my friends and family were able to relax and enjoy the day rather than rush to assemble things in a tight timeline. Also, there were a few minor upsets during the day that she was able to oversee and problem solve allowing us to just enjoy our guests and the day we'd worked so hard to plan. I can't say enough great things honestly.

We weren’t going to have a coordinator at first but boy were we glad we did. Beth at Kismet was recommended to us by a friend and I know for a fact the day would not have gone as smoothly as it did if she wasn’t there! She did everything from running errands for us, making sure everything was going according to schedule the day of, coordinated with all our vendors, decorated, helped get the flower girl to go down the asile, & really just ran the show which took all the stress off us so we could enjoy our day. Throughout the planning process, Beth made herself available to answer any questions I had, day or night. She is really the nicest person ever and is so good at what she does. One of the best decisions we made during our planning process!!

Beth was a fantastic wedding planner!! We loved working with her. She was one of the best choices we made for our wedding. She is very flexible, excellent with communication, good with guests, and an overall awesome person! She is willing to go out of her way to make her clients happy! We loved every interaction we had with Beth! Although we used for our “day of” service, she proved to be beyond helpful in months leading up to the wedding! Thank you for an amazing job, Beth!

Beth was wonderful! Such a worthwhile investment to have her there to be on top of everything, so we could focus on enjoying all the moments. She’s a real pro!

Working with Beth was exactly what I needed to help plan (and execute) our wedding. I live out of state, so having her be available over email and phone was very helpful throughout the process. She was willing to meet up anytime that I was back home for other wedding appointments to go through timeline, vendor information, or other generation questions to keep the process smooth and running. She knows all of the best people to work with in the area and was flexible to hear my ideas and offer advice. Each time we met, Beth took away any stress and refocused my attention back to having fun with the planning process and the importance of the day! On the day of the wedding, she was there to help manage my huge family, keep the evening on track, and attend to all of the vendors. It's difficult to imagine how me and my husband would have been able to 100% enjoy our wedding (oh, and we did!!) and manage everything Beth did. It was a huge relief to have her there and I would definitely recommend working with Kismet for your event.

We cannot say enough good things about Kismet. Beth provided that honest perspective you won't find anywhere else. We asked a lot of questions--some that were probably obvious to her but not us--and she answered them truthfully even if it wasn't exactly what we wanted to hear (but needed to hear). She gave answers that were sensitive to our needs and that we're aligned with our vision. She was also great at helping us prioritize. All throughout our engagement and leading up to the wedding, she was so good at letting us know what need to be done and when, taking a lot of the stress away. Her perspective was also incredible. She had unique ideas and creativity but also knew what was feasible for our venue and budget. She worked directly with our vendors and venue to make our dreams come true--and it was seamless! she can really work with anyone in any situation and keep everyone on the same page. During our actual wedding, she kept everything moving and any issue that came up, she handled behind the scenes without worrying us. Kismet is one of the best in the industry. We would recommend her over and over again.

I would 100% recommend Beth and Kismet Event Group! We used them as our day-of coordinators and they were phenomenal. Beth was always quick to respond to questions or ideas and helped us navigate crises (large and small!) the most notable being our caterer going out of business months before our event. She is on top of every detail and really cares that your event is exactly what you want it to be. She was also present from set-up to final tear down, which a lot of other coordinators don't do. When you work with Beth and Kismet, you're not just getting their attention for a certain number of hours, you are getting someone who really wants to make your event incredible. She helped us run our rehearsal as well as our wedding and both were flawless. We also enjoyed her as a person, which was very important to us. If things go wrong at an event, you really have to have faith in the person you're working with, and we can say that was absolutely the case with Beth and Kismet Event Group. If you are thinking of hiring a day-of coordinator, book them now!

Other than saying yes to my husband, Beth was hands down the best decision I made for my wedding. When someone tells you to hire a day of coordinator, do it. And hire Beth. She is so personable I felt like she was my best friend. Which she was on that day. She had my best interest at heart and executed every time. She didn't miss a beat. I think she even left the venue to go get the guys snacks because they were hungry. She is amazing!! ~Kim Johnson, AKA Dan's wife

Beth was great to work with, and made sure everything ran seamlessly all through the day. She was calm, professional, and organized, and helped us stay sane through the wedding planning. So happy to have had her on our team!

Beth was fantastic to work with, start to finish. I wanted to be pretty hands-on through the planning process, but I needed someone that could answer any random questions I had along the way, and someone who could bring my vision to life and execute all of the details on the big day so I could relax and enjoy it. After speaking with Beth over the phone, I knew right away I wanted to work with her. She's super experienced, she's got great connections in the industry, and she's just super nice and "gets it." She was always available by email or phone for my random questions and doubtful moments, and as the day got closer, she put together an impeccable timeline and a plan for the day that made me feel totally at ease. When the big day came, everything went 100% as planned, and I wasn't worried because I knew Beth and her team were handling everything. The decor I planned looked great, everything ran on schedule, and I had the best day I could have imagined! I would highly recommend Beth as a day-of-coordinator or wedding planner - she's excellent and you won't regret it.

Beth is fantastic! Funny, down to earth, and easy to work with. She definitely puts you at ease (which is not easy to do when coordinating a wedding). We used Beth as a Day Of coordinator, but she was really helpful from the start. She has tons of experience and just knows what needs to get done and how to get it done :)

I hired Beth as my day-of coordinator and she exceeded all my expectations! From our first meeting I knew I could trust her with all the details of our wedding. She was extremely helpful across the planning process and was always up for meeting if I just needed to talk things out with her. The day of our wedding was absolutely flawless. From set-up to day-of coordination I couldn't have asked for a better person to orchestra our day! She truly goes above and beyond and is passionate about making your day perfect! Beth is a phenomenal wedding planner and person, I would HIGHLY recommend her!!!

Beth was an absolute pleasure to work with! My husband and I feel so lucky to have found her at a wedding fair, as we used her services not only for day-of coordination, but also for our save the dates, invitations, ceremony programs, signage, and name place cards. It was clear from the start that Beth knows weddings. She helped me put together a run-of-show, which was so helpful for our wedding party, vendors, and family members. I can say with honestly that things wouldn't have run nearly as smoothly as they did without Beth's presence at our rehearsal dinner and during our wedding day. If you are looking for a coordinator who is knowledgable in all aspects of the wedding planning process, is well connected in the Twin Cities area, and has a warm and bubbly personality, look no further!

Beth was such a blessing to work with. We were referred to her by another couple who was using her services. Our event went off without a hitch all because of her detail-oriented approach, calm and positive demeanor, and all her years of experience in the wedding industry. She was quick to reply to emails and great to bounce a question off of. As a bride I was able to relax and enjoy our wedding day. Beth ensured everything was taken care of and ran on time and completed it in a unobtrustive way. I would highly recommend Beth for any event planning service.

Beth is a rockstar. She approaches every situation like she is planning her own wedding. She is extremely supportive and truly goes above and beyond to make sure you, your wedding party and parents don't have to lift a finger. I used Beth as a day of coordinator but she was more than willing to talk through plans, logistics, etc well before the day of the wedding to make sure everything ran smoothly. Thank you so much - you are so wonderful!!

I highly recommend Beth for overall wedding planning and “day of “ coordination. This recommendation is from both a cost effective perspective and in helping to provide my daughter with the wedding of her dreams. While our relationship began with a unique and wonderful “save the date” card the value of her wedding suggestions led to hiring her for the wedding planning, shower, and wedding invitations. The flexibility in the service provided exceeded our expectations. Throughout the planning and preparation process her recommendations and feedback were invaluable in making the right choices. Her “day of” coordination was beyond compare enabling us to enjoy the entire wedding day and evening with everything “taken care of”.

I can't recommend Kismet Event Group high enough. It is a comprehensive and cost effective wedding coordination group that offers as little or as much help with all aspects of your wedding. They went over and above my expectations in managing vendors, providing creative solutions, setting up, stationery items, and day of coordination. The staff was super professional and experienced and made it all so much easier and fun for me so I could enjoy the process and also enjoy my daughter's wedding! I wish I had another daughter so I could do it again with Kismet Event Group!

I love working with Beth! She was very attentive to both the bride and groom. She is such a fun person and is someone you want to stay in contact with and get together with for coffee or ice-cream after your wedding date because you get so close during the wedding planning part!

Wouldn't have changed a thing!

Beth was amazing! She put up with my micromanaging and made sure my wedding day was absolutely beautiful! She met with my mom and I whenever we needed to and would also get back to us when we had questions! My overall experience with Kismet was wonderful! Thanks again for all your hard work and dedication to my wedding!

I cannot say enough great things about Kismet. Beth and her team were always there when I needed them. They helped with every detail of the wedding and were able to give me advice when I needed it. My wedding day was perfect and I was able to enjoy every moment because I knew Beth was taking care of everything. I am going to miss our meetings!!

Having Beth and her team was the best money spent. She was there from start to finish and made wedding planning fun! I would recommend her to anyone that is planning a wedding. She help easy my stress the entire time and was a blast to work with!

Beth with the Kismet Event Group was our day of coordinator for our recent wedding at Aria Minneapolis. Beth continually went above and beyond to aid in initial planning with vendors, and was in continual constant contact with the vendors and Aria, making sure every last detail was finalized right up to the day of. The day of itself could not have gone smoother. Beth and her team worked diligently behind the scenes to make sure everything fell into place, everything from vendor coordination, helping set up the reception, making sure everyone was in place at the church etc. The day was not stressful at all from a logistical point of view and I'm sure that is because Beth and her team took care of everything in a seamless way.

Beth was a lifesaver! If you want your sanity back, hire a wedding coordinator. If you want an amazing coordinator, hire these guys. Beth arrived first, stayed last and was available leading up to the wedding for any details I needed help with. Tireless worker, endlessly optimistic, she will think of all the things that you can't... Seriously, just call them.

Beth was the best money we spent on our wedding!!! I don't know what we would have done without her. She made everything so easy and helped us navigate the planning and day with ease. The event coordinator at the venue we chose was a nightmare to work with, but Beth had experience working with this very challenging person, and stepped in to make sure everything went perfectly. Our wedding ceremony was outdoors and then our venue was across the street. I was very concerned about my family having to set up and coordinate too much on the day, and Beth just took on everything so we could just enjoy. Highly, highly recommend!!

I was lucky to have Beth as our wedding planner, she helped very early in the process and eased a lot of worry. Best thing was coming back to our room and seeing all of our gifts and cards waiting for us.

We had planned meetings with several other Twin Cities wedding planners, only to cancel them after first meeting with Beth from Kismet. From the moment we met with her at a coffee shop, we immediately knew that we were in good hands for our special day. Even though we only contracted Beth for "day of" services, she continually exceeded our expectations and was present for every meeting with venue staff months prior. Incredibly well connected in the Twin Cities wedding industry, Beth even coordinated with our vendors and kept everyone on the same page. She was so insightful leading up to the wedding and was nothing but supportive on the wedding day, acting as both an experienced professional and a supportive big sister. If Beth has your day open, book her now while you still can! She is worth every dollar and more, and will surely help you not only have the most perfect wedding day, but give you the opportunity to enjoy it as well.

Beth was so fun to work with. We used her wedding planning and day of coordination since we had to "build our venue" from the dance floor up since it was on my parents farm! She was so easy to work with and fun! We also used Watermark Stationary for our stationary needs and was SO happy with the outcome. One Stop Shop, right here! Beth was so accommodating even setting time aside to work with my mom in person since email (or technology for that matter) is not her thing. I completely trusted Beth and her hard work paid of, our day was perfect! We also loved working with her Day Of Assistant. She was so sweet and went above and beyond, always made sure we knew where to be and had everything we needed. It was such a relief to know that everything was in good hands <3 Mike and I and my parents couldn't be happier with how our Wedding day turned out! Thank you!!! Love, The Hauges

We had Beth as our day coordinator and she was absolutely incredible! She answered so many of my questions, gave help when I needed it and made my husband and I feel reassured about everything. On our wedding day, she brought all the decor and odds and ends to the venue, ran our rehearsal and made sure everything was running smoothly and everyone was doing their job. We seriously cannot thank her enough, we had such a wonderful time on our big day and we owe a lot of that to her! Plus she is like the nicest person ever!! We loved her!!

If its one piece of advice I can give future brides it is to hire wedding planner- and if you live in Minnesota to hire Beth! Initially I was hesitant to hire a wedding planner as I'm very organized and always on top of things. I meet with several other wedding planners and was convinced I didn't need one until I meet with Beth. Beth was amazing and our day went off without a hitch. From the moment I hired her Beth was all hands on deck helping me every step of the way. Not only did she have connections with vendors which ended up saving us money but she also completely understood my vision for the day. Everything turned out beautifully and all our guests loved her and thought she was a (very helpful) friend! On our wedding day we were able to sit back, relax and enjoy ourselves thanks to Beth!

I worked with Beth at Kismet Event Group as my day of coordinator and I could not recommend her more. She helped put my mind at ease. Knowing that there was someone there the day of to handle all of the details and make sure everything went off with out a hitch allowed my husband and I, and eve our family to relax and enjoy the day. Even though she was my "day of coordinator" she went above and beyond even before the day. She was always ready and willing to answer and questions or offer opinions on decisions and always had great vendor advice. She also always knew the right thing to say to help me feel less stressed. Beth was a real life saver! I highly recommend Kismet Event Group!

After we got engaged, we knew that planning a wedding was a big deal and finding someone to help us keep everything enjoyable was a big priority for us. Finding Kismet was absolutely the best money we spent! All of the help setting up vendor visits took so much weight off of our shoulders, and working with vendors that had a positive track record made our entire day run as smooth as glass. And the day of the event was so much more enjoyable and stress free than we could have ever imagined - they truly took all of the weight off of our shoulders so that we could enjoy every second of it with all of our guests. I have already recommended them to EVERYONE I know that's gotten engaged since our wedding day. Thank you guys for everything you did, it was the best wedding day we could have ever dreamed of! Mike + Kelli

We were introduced to Beth through a family member, and hiring Kismet Event Group was the absolute best decision! Beth truly listened to what we wanted and considered all our ideas from the very beginning. She guided us through the planning process with ease. She contacted vendors when we were unavailable. Her recommendation for food and the DJ was spot on! People are still talking the food and the dance floor was never empty! The day of the wedding I woke up without a single worry. I really enjoyed myself! People couldn't believe how calm I was! Beth and her assistant Jess took care of everything the day of the wedding! I can't tell you how happy we were. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect! After the wedding they stayed until the last guest left and packed up all of our stuff. Beth came to our house to drop everything off the next day. That just shows she'll go above and beyond for you. We will never be able thank her enough for everything she did for our wedding. I would recommend her in a heartbeat! She was amazing to work with!
