Kaelyn with My Wedding Planner was outstanding!! Highly skilled at all aspects of wedding planning from vendor recommendations, to budgeting, to wedding day schedule and logistics....
She seriously thought of everything and made our wedding weekend operation go seamlessly. We did not live in the state where we got married and she did an amazing job of coordinating everything for us since we were not local. Could not recommend her more!
Kaelyn with My Wedding Planner is the perfect balance of experience with attention to details, and fun to work with but also so efficient with your time. Each month we met with he...
r on zoom, had a checklist of things to decide but we could also reach out and talk or email her any time about anything. On wedding day I, as mother of the bride did not have to do a thing but enjoy time with my daughter and her bridal party. She kept track of our budget, invoices, contracts and everything wedding. In the planning process she knew so many vendors and could help up pick the one that was the best fit for us. You can not go wrong if you use My Wedding Planner - contact her as soon as you get engaged. You won't be sorry!
We lived out of State and hiring My Wedding Planner was one of the first things we did in the wedding planning process and probably one of the best decisions we made. Working with ...
Kaelyn throughout the whole process made everything so easy. Her and her team provided great vendor recommendations and were always very responsive to any questions we had along the way. Kaelyn and her team also made the day of incredibly stress free and they ensured everything went smoothly even with last minute adjustments having to be made due to weather. We would highly recommend My Wedding Planner!
We live out of state while my wife and her family are from Kentucky so we wanted to have our wedding there. Being out of state we knew having a coordinator would be extra helpful. ...
Finding Kaelyn and the My Wedding Planner team was a lifesaver! We sought Kaelyn's help initially for feasibility, and that experience went so well we knew we wanted to work with her for full coordinating services. About halfway through our planning, my wife's mother was diagnosed with cancer that changed our lives and of course our wedding plans. Kaelyn didn't blink an eye, and went above and beyond to help advise us during an incredibly difficult time and pivoted plans brilliantly. Kaelyn was so supportive during all this, I don't know how we would have gotten through the planning during this incredibly emotional time. Kaelyn and her team helped us achieve a wedding that was perfectly us, with unique requests and tastes. We are so, so grateful to have found Kaelyn and her team. When we said goodbye at the end of our reception, the first thought we had was that we were going to miss our check-ins with Kaelyn because we just enjoyed her so much.
We cannot express our gratitude for how helpful, organized, and graceful the folks at My Wedding Planner (Lexington Event Co.) were to work with. There are very few things in life ...
as intimate as planning a wedding; at times, it can require an "all hands on deck" effort. We cannot speak highly enough of Kaelyn Query who became our wedding planner so serendipitously, midway through our wedding plans. Kaelyn was up to the challenge, and nimble when met with obstacles. From the nuanced details to the complex, Kaelyn made our dreams come true, and allowed us to plan a party not only for marital purposes, but in celebration of those we love. Cheers to My Wedding Planner!
The staff with Lex Event co/My Wedding Planner was the best wedding planning decision we made. They had answers to all the questions I had throughout the planning process. The day ...
off was remarkably stress free! Everything was done to perfection, and they even made sure we ate. Our main POC, Kaelyn, was amazing. Would definitely recommend.
Kaelyn and her team at My Wedding Planner are the real MVP of all things wedding. I truly cannot fathom what wedding planning would have been like without them! We got married in L...
exington but live in Phoenix, so her help was truly indispensable. We could not have made a better decision to use My Wedding Planner!
Kaelyn was suggested to me by a friend who used her. After speaking with two other potential planners, we felt Kaelyn had the experience, savvy and reliability that we needed. Kaelyn does not mince words - she knows her shit and isn’t afraid to be honest. As a person who appreciates clarity, honesty and openness, Kaelyn was a perfect fit for us.
We worked with My Wedding Planner for well over a year during our engagement, and Kaelyn was always available to assist. She kindly listened to all my TikTok-generated ideas, many of which we implemented. She kept our planning timeline on track, visited venues with us, discussed pros and cons and provided options if we didn’t like what was available. Kaelyn is incredibly well connected in the community and never came up short when we needed suggestions. She helped with rehearsal dinner, floral, makeup, hair, video, our hotel block and more!
There truly isn’t enough space to cover all the ways Kaelyn made our wedding wonderful. We used her full service planning, so she presented vendor options, we looked them over and discussed with her, and she did all the arranging of contracts and provided payment reminders. The week of the wedding she picked up decor, retrieved and returned glassware we rented, provided emotional support, talked me off ledges, fixed fallen hair, repaired broken suspenders, adjusted our timeline when it got significantly off course, decorated, directed, handed out vendor tips, managed to keep my husband on task and I’m sure there are tons more things she did that I didn’t even notice! After the wedding she mailed in our marriage license so we had one less thing to worry about. If you want to enjoy your wedding day, you need My Wedding Planner!
When we were first beginning wedding planning and discussing our budget, I thought: Gosh, Kaelyn’s help is a chunk of our budget, I hope it’s worth it. As time went on and the wedding grew closer and finally happened, I thought: We did not pay this woman nearly enough. She is worth her weight in gold.
Thank you Kaelyn, Amber and all the others on the team who helped us along the way. You are all fantastic, professional, fabulous people who have a true passion for what they are doing. Working with you all was a dream. I will recommend you to everyone!
Bonus points because Kaelyn and her business is LGBTQ+ friendly!
Kaelyn is amazing! She helped me with every step of the process! She reviewed all of my contracts and answered any and all questions I had through the whole planning process! And o...
n the day of the wedding she made sure everything went perfectly! I think the best part was at the end of the night I didn’t have to worry about anything!!
We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Lexington Event Company. They were thorough (every single detail), kind, helpful and made the process of planning a wedding (during ...
a global pandemic, no less) so much easier than had we taken the task on ourselves. At the last minute we were forced to make adjustments in order to be able to proceed with our day and Kaelyn and her team did it swiftly and without stress to anyone in our party. I cannot express enough how grateful I am to their contribution to what could have been a cancelled event all together - and made it my favorite night of my life where I got to marry my best friend!
Kaelyn and the LexEffect team are incredible! From organization and execution, they went above and beyond. We had most of our vendors in place when we started working with LexEffec...
t, but they took us to the finish line with easy, matter-of-fact communication and very little stress. In fact, they repeatedly did much more than we asked (or, frankly, than our contract anticipated), so they offered a tremendous value.
We held our wedding at my in-laws' home, which, in and of itself, had the makings of a stressful situation. LexEffect, however, planned and executed every detail so that it felt like we were instead at a full-service wedding venue. Even my in-laws were at ease! Thank you, thank you, LexEffect!
I never realized how important it was to have a wedding planner until we hired LexEffect for our wedding. Kaelyn and her team went above and beyond our expectations. From making su...
re we were meeting timelines, following up with vendors, and organizing a dream ceremony and reception. They offered advice on vendors, décor, and anything we needed help with. The team was always a phone call, text, or email away and willing to answer all questions and calm any nerves. Our day would not have come together so perfectly if it was not for LexEffect. My only regret was not hiring them sooner – highly recommend Kaelyn and her team!
Can’t thank Kaelyn and her crew enough! My family and I didn’t have to think or stress about anything the week and day of! We were able to enjoy the day and not have to sweat the s...
mall stuff because of lexeffect. Kaelyn was very easy to work with, extremely approachable and flexible. Kaelyn was constantly in touch with my vendors coordinating multiple things so I didn’t have to (which is great because my brain probably would have exploded) She knows what she is doing, so if you let her do her job, your day will be PERFECT! 10/10 I would recommend LexEffect!
Many, many thanks to Kaelyn and her team. I cannot say enough wonderful things-- as an out of town bride, she set me- and my mother at ease (and that was no easy task!). Extremel...
y organized and excellent communication-- I cannot recommend her enough. She worked her magic behind the scenes and made for a seamless and polished wedding day. She and her team went above and beyond - and handled every curveball and request! We also enjoyed her team- everyone was so kind and helpful - thank you!
Before you had a chance to ask, she's already thought of it and has taken care of it! Her professionalism and in-depth knowledge was priceless. From vendor insight to overall guidance, I truly don't know what we would have done without LexEffect-- so very much appreciated! Top-rate event planning- and a delight to work with and collaborate. They are the best-- best decision I made in the planning process!!
Kaelyn and her team did a great job with our day of coordination! They were so helpful throughout the planning process and made everything go smoothly for the entire wedding weeken...
d. We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves. I would highly recommend using her and her team for your event!
I have seen several reviews stating that hiring LexEffect was the best money spent toward wedding expenses, and we whole-heartedly agree! Kaelyn and her team supported us during th...
e planning stages and throughout the entire wedding experience. Our original point of contact with LexEffect resigned about five months before the wedding and Kaelyn took over with a seamless transition. By the time of our first meeting with her, she had totally familiarized herself with all of our details and never gave us a moment of concern. She made great suggestions, researched and rented equipment for our LA band, picked up and delivered food for our wedding party on the day of, set up the entire rehearsal dinner and reception venues per our vision, and saw to every detail. All of our vendors were coordinated through a detailed timeline, and the rentals were returned. Honestly, we didn't need to do a thing except show up and have a lot of fun. Communication, professionalism, positive attitudes, and attention to detail are major strengths. Additionally, Kaelyn and her team are true advocates for the bride and groom in every situation. I give LexEffect the highest recommendation possible.
Having the help of Kaelyn and her LexEffect team was absolutely invaluable to us during both the planning process and the wedding day. Kaelyn was very prompt in getting back to me ...
no matter what time of the week or day it was or even if she was out of town. She had great recommendations and suggestions and made sure everything came together seamlessly on the day of our wedding. Everything I had envisioned she truly brought to life. On the day of our wedding she had 2 other team members to help, Alyssa and Madison, who were equally as helpful in making sure the day transitioned flawlessly. From delivering breakfast and special surprises to each other or running errands we had someone by our side for any of our needs all day long. The girls continued to check on me through the night to see if I needed a drink, etc and made sure I was taken care of the entire duration of the day. There was really not a single worry or stress I had all day long thanks to kaelyn and her team. We would not have been able to pull off such a perfect day without her. Thank you Kaelyn!!
LexEffect was a life saver helping to plan and coordinate our wedding from across the country. The time zone difference made it extremely difficult to get in touch with vendors and...
be on calls to get everything finalized. The LexEffect team helped in so many ways from coordination, ideas, rentals, running errands, vendor recommendations and being available anytime I had questions. On our wedding day, they were so organized and new exactly what to do and when. After working together on a timeline for day of, Kaelyn was spectacular on keeping everyone things on track. If there was a hiccup, she handled it and we never knew about it, which is so important because it is truly amazing how fast it all goes by. This team helped in so many ways and made our big day one for us to always remember!
Hands-down, the best money we spent was hiring LexEffect for our wedding. Kaelyn and the team were a huge help throughout the entire planning process. They gave us great recommenda...
tions when we were picking vendors and were also always on call when we had questions about anything! Both families were able to completely relax and enjoy the weekend because the LexEffect team handled the flow of all events, letting us enjoy the festivities. They were also able to handle every issue that arose during the weekend (often without us evening knowing there was ever a problem.) The best event coordinators in town!
On 12/7/16 my daughter hired Kaelyn Query of LexEffect as our wedding coordinator. We had six months worth of phone calls, emails, text messages and meetings with her. However, on ...
the DAY of the wedding (June 3), and after being paid in full (and also tipped), Kaelyn just went missing; she never showed up, called, texted, or communicated in ANY way whatsoever until I contacted her approx 3 weeks after the wedding! As you can imagine, there were multiple mishaps; starting with the ceremony, when my husband had to cue the bridesmaids, grandparents, flower girl, etc. down the aisle. Following the ceremony, as GUESTS were carrying chairs to the reception (which was a service paid for and included in Kaelyn's contract price), I inquired a representative (that she sent in her absence) about Kaelyn's whereabouts and was simply told that "she had an emergency." We had a cocktail hour planned; however in her absence, there was no one available to direct guests where to go. Per Kaelyn's cad table set up plan, there were to be separate tables for gifts & guest sign in. Evidently her helpers did not have access to that information either. Approximately 2 hours into a 3 hour reception, I noticed that the guest book was covered with gifts. I took it upon myself to move gifts so that guests could actually sign in. As a result, approximately 20 of 165 guests were able to find and sign well wishes. I was also told verbally (and this item is also listed on the contract) that they would be responsible for getting leftovers to us. Again, that never happened. Lex Effect was responsible for getting all props back to us. My daughter used the engraved cake knife from my own wedding over 32 years ago. And it too, seems to have vanished. Approx. 3 weeks later, via social media, we found out what the real "emergency" was. When confronted about this, she continued to be dishonest. For these reasons, I would never recommend her services:(
Kaelyn and our entire experience with LexEffect was amazing and easily the best money we spent on our entire wedding process!! From the beginning, we received great advice on vendo...
rs and help making initial decisions. From there any wish we had was granted--they have an amazing artist that wrote on chalkboards for us for engagement photos & our wedding, communicated and set up all arrivals and set-up for the big day and literally handled EVERY detail, a MUST for an OCD bride! Everything went smoothly and no detail was left untouched! They also took care of a bunch of additional smaller errands such as returning the cake stand and transporting flowers to a different venue for our Sunday brunch! I cannot say enough GREAT things about LexEffect and recommend them to all!!
LexEffect did an unbelieveable job on my most recent event. I could not have asked for a better experience! Sidney was so friendly and easy to work with. She exceeded our expectati...
ons!
I cannot explain how amazing Christy was for our wedding... it was a success largely because of her and her team going completely above and beyond. She handled disgruntled vendors;...
managed guests; set-up and decorated our plan-b ceremony and reception sites for rain with only a few hours notice; did an impromptu liquor run; got up on a ladder to hang lights... and so much more. What's more is that she did this all, and I had no idea. She made the whole thing completely stress free for my husband and I and our guests. She was so organized and most of all, incredibly professional. I cannot imagine a better planner/day-of-coordinator and would highly recommend Christy to anyone looking for a gorgeous, stress-free, and well done wedding day.
I worked with Hannah and she was absolutely wonderful. Any time I had a question about finding a specific item for the wedding, and even when my reception venue cancelled on me at ...
the last minute she was always on top of things. At the wedding rehearsal and the day of the wedding she made sure everything flowed seamlessly. I can't say enough good things about her or Lex Effect as a whole. I'm very glad that I met her at a bridal show because she was a God-send. You will definitely be pleased if you book Lex Effect. From everything to offering to pick up breakfast, pinning on boutonnières, driving us afterward, and running to get a last minute bottle of champagne that we forgot, she was on top of it all!!!
Hannah from lex effect was amazing!! She made my wedding stress free. She communicated with all my venders and made me a wonderful timeline for the day of. She made sure everything...
went exactly as planned! And as far as I know it all went great because she took care of everything and made sure I could relax and enjoy my day! She was always available to talk and answered all my questions. I don't know what I would have done without her! I would highly recommend!
I want an outside wedding my colors are light purple and dark purple with white
I can not even begin to put into words how amazing Hannah is!.
I got married on 4/16/16 and as an out of town bride, I completely put all my faith in her. This removed a tremend...
ous amount of stress from the planning process. Hannah was extremely organized, she essentially took care of all of the flowers and decor. She helped with communicating with all the other vendors and created a timeline for the weekend.
I forgot to mention, I had a second ceremony on the 15th, both events had over 200 people in attendance. I did not have to deal with any details at all the week of my wedding, and I enjoyed spending time with my fiance, friends and family.
100% would recommend her to anyone!
Christy made my entire planning process so simple, and was crucial the day before and the day of my wedding. There is no comparison in terms of value, professionalism, and helpfuln...
ess. At the end of the entire process, I felt like Christy was a trusted friend, and I would highly recommend her and the rest of Lex Effect to anyone looking for help in coordinating their wedding. It was easily the best expense for my event- I didn't worry about dealing with vendors, linens, setting up the day of the wedding, securing and executing the timeline, or securing staff and waiters. Christy even went above and beyond by going out to get simple syrup and oranges so that I could have an old-fashioned at the reception (those ingredients completely slipped my mind...). She was very organized, professional, and on top of everything I needed to make sure the day ran smoothly. Her services were truly essential to my wedding, and I don't know how I could have done it without her and her team. I honestly feel it was the best money I spent on the whole thing.
Cannot say enough wonderful things about Christy and her team. I used the "day-of" coordination for my 8/15/15 wedding but got so much more. I am not the type to hire a wedding coo...
rdinator--I'm very simple and very cheap--but I'm now pushing LexEffect (and Christy) on everyone I know. She answered SO many of my questions and addressed all of my concerns during my 4 month planning periods, and went out of her way to look up information that could possibly help me--thank goodness, because I didn't know what I was doing. She made the rehearsal and actual wedding flow smoothly (even helping save our gifts and decor from a freak rainstorm) but most of all was my go-to person so I didn't have to panic about anything. Also suggested nearly all of the vendors I ended up using, and helped me save a lot of money with recommendations and good advice. Christy was absolutely essential, thank you a million times over.
