Simple Elegance Wedding & Event Planners

ted the planning process gracefully and professionally and then when Covid hit she managed to plan and navigate the changes even more patiently and perfectly than before. Kindra is organized, patient, caring, and truly wants her brides to have the day of their dreams. She communicates closely with vendors and clearly has a good relationship with all those she works with. She made working with vendors easy. She always answered any questions we had quickly and would find the answers quickly if she wasn’t sure herself. Kindra was honest and helpful when it came to making tough decisions. Our wedding was everything I ever dreamed of thanks to Kindra. She is a fantastic wedding planner and an even more wonderful person. The entire Simple Elegance company reflects the same values as Kindra. You will have a much more enjoyable wedding day and planning process if you have them help with your planning process!

al career or personal experiences have I seen anyone so poised and in-control in what seemed at times like impossible situations. Three separate venues, three separate contracts, scheduling, rescheduling, ordering, cancelling, holding, releasing... without EVER taking her eye off the ball on the main objective - to make my daughter and son-in-law's day as perfect as it could possibly be. And it was perfect. Kindra is clearly well-respected in this industry by ALL of the key support businesses. She is a tremendous listener (and note taker) and we felt completely confident that she represented our thoughts, ideas and objectives to these vendors as though we were there ourselves. While she brought exceptional ideas and guidance into this process based on her rich experience, she was also very open to new ideas that were executed flawlessly. I highly recommend Kindra and her team and hope she's still in business when my granddaughter is ready for her turn!!

ng will transform your wedding planning experience to sheer perfection. Her confidence in me, my random thoughts and ideas, my stresses or excitement, Holly was there, cheering me on and creating the magic I never thought could ever be possible. She has the ability to listen, interpret, create your vision (or multiple visions in my case) and make it all come to life in the most perfect, out of this world way. Holly has a way of calming you during your most stressful moments and boosts your confidence through every stage of your wedding process. Holly was the secret ingredient to my beautifully successful wedding, and has been to every other bride who has ever worked with her. She is the wedding world's greatest asset and it was an absolute honor to have her create my wedding and be with me through it all. Thank you Holly, for absolutely everything you did. The world deserves to know you, work with you, and praise you. You have a talent unlike I've ever seen. Our April 17th wedding was not possible without you!

of the wedding, Alyssa and her team knocked it out of the park! Everything, and I do mean everything, went off without a hitch! Or, if there were glitches, the bride and the wedding guests never knew anything because Alyssa and her team were there managing the process. The newsletter Alyssa prepared for the wedding weekend was fabulous and helped keep everyone informed and on track. Many of the wedding party commented on how appreciative they were with all the great details Alyssa's newsletter shared. Our wish was give our daughter the wedding of her dreams and Alyssa and her team helped do just that. Outstanding job Alyssa and team! THANK YOU for your part in making Bailey and Kevin's wedding spectacular! We are forever grateful for your love and devotion to every little detail!

d where and when they were supposed to, we didn’t have to think about a single thing except enjoying our big day.

oriented nature that far exceeded my expectations. They have relationships with every vendor and provide the best advice as to who to use. She made everything from the rehearsal to the reception go splendidly. I 100% recommend!

hen Kindra and her team came in, they put so much at ease for me. The were such a large part of our special day for so many reason. And I am forever grateful for them! Kindra became like a friend, and had this “tough-mother” like approach that made her so helpful and trusting. She was kind, non judge mental and understanding but always honest and upfront. And I will forever be grateful for her! Can’t recommend her and Simple Elegance enough.

s a true professional and has been in the wedding planning and event coordination business for close to 2 decades. Her expertise and connections to vendors was unparalleled. Everything was planned of, thought of, and streamlined to allow me and my wife to simply focus on love and creating a vision of a magical experience for our guests, all the while Kindra was there to help bring it to life. Above and beyond her skills and her attention to detail, Kindra was an absolute delight to work with. She is friendly, fun, and made every step one that we derived great enjoyment from! She was fully vested in our love story and we consider her a true friend, above and beyond our wedding planner, because she brought with her her unique and warm spirit and she certainly touched our lives forever. She also understood that my wife and I were busy working professionals and was able to take our overall vision to work with our vendors to create the magic without taking much of our time to do so. We love Kindra and we love Simple Elegance! Would recommend to anyone who wants a wedding planner with the spirit and passion to back it up!

o nothing was missed. Our wedding day honestly couldn't have been more perfect or more beautiful and I'm still getting comments about how it was executed to perfection. I highly recommend Simple Elegance and specifically, Paulina!!

ding planner. 1. She was a calming presence when stress levels started to rise. 2. She accommodated our requests, while also sharing in her insight. I mean, she is the one that's seen more weddings than us. 3. At the end of the day, she made sure the focus was on the most important part...GETTING MARRIED! I will recommend Paulina to all family/friends who plan to get married.

edding, and her ability to wear multiple hats at once was nothing short of amazing! We started with a plan of 300+ guests at a large venue, and ended up having 50 in my parents' backyard once it was clear that the reception we initially planned wasn't possible with gathering size limitations. Paulina's positivity and confident ideas helped make us feel as though this was truly all part of the plan, and our scaled down event ended up feeling more personal and intimate than we could have imagined the original being. Without her there's no chance we could have transitioned in such a short amount of time, but she was able to juggle the moving pieces with ease. Paulina may never know how truly grateful we are for her ability to help navigate murky wedding-planning-during-a-pandemic waters, but hopefully others get the chance to experience it for themselves! Her contacts are unparalleled (she knew all of our vendors personally), which paired with her experience and calming personality made for a day of smooth sailing that we'll never forget.

rm in Kansas City. We absolutely would not have been able to pull our wedding off without Lucia's help. From the start she was so supportive and encouraging. She helped us find all of our Kansas City vendors, answered every panicked "COVID bride" call with ease and made sure our day was perfect and special. Lucia was so great at coordinating, discussing options and going over contracts with us so we were able to make the best decisions possible. On the day of our wedding we definitely ran into some timing issues, but Lucia stepped up and made sure that all the problems were resolved. From start to finish Lucia was amazing. She is kind, professional, and really cares about the couples she works with. Highly recommend her to anyone in need of a full service planner!

very bride needs whether there's a pandemic happening or not. She is so detailed oriented, guides the decision-making process while encouraging planning teams (in my case, my mom and me) to make choices that are authentic and heartfelt to the wedding day vision, and is truly so kind. It is very obvious that Kindra loves what she does, and she has an unparalleled knack for creating special and unique celebrations that are true to each couple. There was an added layer of detail + stress with a 2020 wedding, but I never once felt overwhelmed or "over it." Kindra was in the weeds with us to create a wedding that was just as special as our original plans, but also super safe -- there were some tears, a lot of laughs, and so much teamwork. Kindra signs her emails "with Grace & Gratitude," and that is the true definition of her approach to wedding planning -- we could not have pulled off our big day without her. Now that my planning process is over, I follow along online to see what magic the Simple Elegance team creates for new couples every week. I recommend Kindra and her team to ANY bride -- they will work with you to bring your vision to life and elevate your wedding beyond what you could have ever hoped for. Thank you for the best day ever!

k all the stress out of the wedding planning process and made it so fun. The day flowed so smoothly and was PERFECT! She showed so much kindness towards all of my family and our guests. We had multiple friends and family comment on how awesome she was! I could not recommend Alyssa enough to help make your wedding day absolutely flawless :-)

, everything was flawless and ran so smooth because of her. During the planning process she answered my questions immediately, and made sure to address all of my concerns and anxieties. She very much went over and beyond for me and my husband and we could not be more thankful. I couldn't recommend her more, and she was the best investment we made for our wedding.

the wedding planning process, before working with Kindra, I felt so excited, but very overwhelmed. I was in the last year of my masters program, getting ready to graduate and begin studying for my boards, interviewing for jobs, and planning a wedding all at the same time. To say the least, I was stretched thin. After our first meeting, Kindra completely put me at ease and helped me with every little step along the way. She constantly answered my questions, eased my concerns, and worked incredibly hard to make my vision a reality. Kindra has an incredible attention to detail and is extremely organized. She is also such an incredible person and easy to get along with, which made the planning process so fun and enjoyable. I feel so lucky that I was able to work with the Simple Elegance Team for our wedding and I could not be more grateful for their hard work and love along the way. Our wedding day was by far the best day of our lives and Kindra was a huge part of making it the perfect day. She took all of our stress away and we truly enjoyed every minute. Simple Elegance and Kindra, THANK YOU for everything! Anyone would be lucky to work with you all! Book them now!

commended Holly, and I am SO glad she did. Holly gave us a checklist every step of the way, kept in touch with all of our vendors, and thought of every little detail. The whole weekend went so smoothly and Holly and the Simple Elegance team made sure that my husband and I were able to just enjoy the day and take in every moment. Holly - THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for making my wedding dream a reality. I would recommend Holly and Simple Elegance to anyone and everyone that is planning a wedding!

een a part of such a beautiful wedding. Given all of the changes leading up to our day, due to the world's current situation with the virus, Lisa handled everything perfectly. She had to make so many changes the week of our wedding, but Linsey and I knew she would take care of everything and we did not have to worry. Lisa and Simple Elegance are a great group, they know exactly how to cater to the couple and I promise they will deliver everything you want for your special day. Thanks to them and everyone who helped for our special day!

uldn't have asked to work with a better planner. I would recommend Kindra to absolutely anyone!

rvous bride energy. While my mom and I loved planning the major details of my wedding, we wanted to work with someone that could execute a plan and help us think of small details that would take our wedding from good to great. Lisa jumped right now and allowed us to focus on the important stuff like love and family during a notoriously difficult time. Lisa has an amazing attention to detail, is calm and poised under pressure and answered every single question we threw at her no matter how minute and annoying :) We love Lisa and would recommend her to anyone!

ng married on New Year’s Eve and we had less then 9 months to plan. What makes her so special is the 25 years she has been in the industry, she knows how to plan and execute your daughter’s “best day ever”. She is an amazing listener who takes your vision to the next level. Always organized and ready to take on any challenge your event may pose. A month after our blessed New Years Wedding the planning began for our youngest daughter. This time the challenge was a destination wedding. We started the process of interviewing wedding planners in Palm Springs and my immediate thought was “ we need Kindra to come with us”. Knowing she was on board again instantly eased our planning and minds. I can honestly say that there is absolutely nothing we would have done differently for either event. I believe we feel that way because we picked the Best Wedding Planner! Simple Elegance is a gem in Kansas City! We feel so blessed to have shared and planned two these special days with Kindra!

e MOBs and the Dads all raved about Holly, and now, we know why! She is organized, professional, smart and savvy. Holly is also kind, thoughtful, graceful, tenacious and fun. She engaged both my relaxed and easy-going husband and me (type-a extreme!) in our planning process so that we both were able to see our visions come to life and enjoy the process as a couple. Holly recommended amazing vendors but allowed us to really drive the conversations with each so that we felt comfortable in making our selections. She always came to our monthly meetings with objectives, to-do lists and a listening ear. My husband and I live out of town so when we traveled into Kansas City to plan, it was critical that we accomplished a lot. Holly always came though. Whether trekking to our venue in a snowstorm or convincing a cake vendor to create a mobile tasting option, she delivered! Holly truly let us plan OUR dream wedding and supported some of our out of the box ideas with enthusiasm and delight while ensuring that the entire day was beautiful, meaningful, memorable and on-budget. (I also have to mention that Holly took such good care of my parents throughout the process, something that was invaluable to me too!) We will always feel indebted to Holly for not only helping us plan the wedding weekend of our dreams, but also allowing us to enjoy our engagement and planning process. She is the best!

to her extreme organization and detail, we always stayed on pace with her time table (and still had fun!). From the beginning, she fully understood our vision and made it come to life. She made herself available to us and was always so accommodating to our schedules. Kindra’s rapport on my wedding day gave peace of mind to fully enjoy myself and not worry for one second. My mother would say it was totally worth the investment. If you are considering hiring a wedding planner, choose Simple Elegance! If we could do it over again, we’d pick Kindra every time!

team made the day of our wedding absolutely perfect. We were actually able to enjoy every moment with our family and friends. My parents felt like guests instead of being stressed about the day. I highly recommend Holly to anyone looking for an outstanding wedding planner!

and was a HUGE help with the timeline. She made the day of timeline, communicated it to all the vendors, along with my wedding party. I absolutely cannot imagine our wedding without Holly. The day ran smoothly thanks to her. I am pretty sure she moved mountains when a rental delivery issue happened, and I didn't even know it until after!! It was a game changer and completely worth it! Cannot recommend Simple Elegance & Holly enough!

d needed the assistance. We were referred to Simple Elegance and began working with Lisa Forbes. From the very first meeting, we knew we were in good hands with Lisa, and decided the full-service option was a no-brainer. Lisa took time to get to know my husband and I, identified what was most important to us, and got a great understanding of our style. She set up viewings with venues, and scheduled meetings with a list of additional vendors accordingly. She assisted in verbalizing our vision to the vendors, and honestly turned the day into the wedding of our dreams! Throughout the entire engagement, Lisa kept us on track with meetings, to-do lists, and our budget which allowed us to truly enjoy the entire the wedding planning process. We received numerous compliments on how seamless the entire flow of the wedding was and credit the way everything came together to Lisa. My husband and I both agree, it was the best money we could have spent when it came to celebrating our special day!

nd professional. By far the most valuable wedding investment!

planner. We adore Holly Davidson!!!

sive when I had questions before then. As soon as we reached the three month mark before the wedding, Holly reached out to every single one of my vendors to begin communication. At that point I didn't have to worry about a thing. Anything that needed to be done, she took care of, making things so incredibly easy and less stressful for me. On the day of wedding, I already knew everything was taken care of, and if anything were to arise, she would manage and deal with the vendors and the issues. She was so patient and present on the wedding day - staying out of the way but jumping right in when needed. She made sure everything stayed on schedule and went above and beyond when an issue arose with our florist. She arrived early and stayed until the end of the night. She is well-known and respected, which helps a lot when working with other vendors in the area. You cannot go wrong with hiring Holly!! She is someone my husband and I will stay in touch with forever!

edding would be everything we wanted it to be. From the first meeting to saying goodbye at the end of our night, Holly was professional, knowledgable, kind, approachable, and always had our wedding vision in mind. She helped us every step of the way and guided us toward the things that would make our wedding dreams come true. Holly made our lives so much easier and she was such a joy to work with! We will miss seeing her often as she was not only an incredible wedding planner, but a wonderful person as well!

meline the week of the wedding because she wants cake served to each guests - they dissolve the situation with grace before you can blink when the inevitable happens. Even through the peachy keen moments of the planning process you will be glad to have their expertise and advise making the process that much smoother. As Kindra says, "Who's your planner?" - if it's her, Lisa, Lauren, Nichole or Holly you are set for success. I highly recommend hiring Simple Elegance as your wedding planner. McCall Bodenhamer past bride & KC venue manager

ith the vendors is excellent.....she is very respected and uses professional, experienced companies whom she knows will make the day a complete success! Both the bride and I live out of town (different cities) and what seemed so complex was made far simpler by Kindra's help. She is the best!

during the big day. I planned my wedding for 11 months, and Kindra never let one detail slip or one item go unchecked. I already had some ideas about what I wanted, but Kindra's creativity was the bow on top. Attention to detail and expertise in the wedding industry is what I was looking for, and that is what I got with Kindra at Simple Elegance. Because of that, I was able to fully enjoy my wedding day with my husband, friends , and family. The peace of mind we had was absolutely worth the investment.

wedding I was able to enjoy myself. I would use Lauren or Simply Elegance again and highly recommend them.

day, hands off from the hard work of making my vision come to life. Nichole acted as my hands and my eyes and made sure everything in my vision came to life beautifully! She ran things throughout the whole day and evening so smoothly, and always with a smile on her face. She is organized, enthusiastic, calm, encouraging and manages every twist and turn of the day with ease! Thank you so much, Nichole!

ok no further. A special thanks for pulling rose pedals for the flower girl. The florist forgot and Alyssa didn’t miss a beat. You are an angel. I am forever thankful.

erent planning services in KC. After our conversation with Kindra, it was easy to see she was the person for us. Our entire planning experience with Kindra was a complete joy and our wedding day was absolutely everything we could have dreamed of. If you’re debating whether or not you need a planner, look no more. Kindra and her Simple Elegance team are the best.

your family's wants/needs in order to help you plan and execute the wedding that fits YOUR dream. Holly knows that there is no 1 size fits all and works really hard to make sure your wedding is unique and special. Holly has incredible taste and was able to help me make the best informed decisions. She let me take control of the parts that I had a vision for and was able to guide me with areas that I felt less comfortable. She is so awesome about laying out options, pricing, styles, etc. She truly has a gift for planning weddings. My entire family loved Holly, enjoyed working with her, and would recommend her to anyone we know. If you are with Holly, you are in great hands.

ng my daughter’s vision of her wedding day to life. And boy did she! Every detail was taken care of with no stress (at least for us!). When my daughter was not sure of a detail, Lisa was ready with suggestions that fit our venue. Her vendor suggestions were all fantastic and were easy to work with. They all were able to give my daughter her dream wedding thanks to Lisa. I highly recommend Lisa and Simple Elegance for a stress-free wedding!

on enjoying the celebration! Even before the day of, she was so helpful and made the last couple of weeks less stressful by communicating with vendors to finalize details! We would defenitely recommend!!!

d was thrilled with them. We met Lauren K and hired her immediately. We were able to enjoy every moment of the days prior to and the day of the wedding. No regrets!! Wonderful memories:) Thank you Lauren K!

g coordinator was the best money we spent, and Lisa and Simple Elegance were invaluable to our wedding.

rking with her and would highly recommend Simple Elegance! They are THE BEST!

nowledge and friendly personality allowed me to fully put my trust in her! During the final stages of planning, I had little contact with many of my vendors. Lauren did the communicating and worked hard to put together the wedding weekend’s itinerary. On the day of the wedding, Lauren and her assistant were always available. They gently guided us through, so we could focus on each other and our guests! I never once worried about our itinerary, decor or the layout of the room. I could truly live in the moment and soak in all the amazing memories! Outside of my own personal experience, I’ve also had the pleasure of working with many other SE planners on a professional level as a former coordinator at a local venue. The ladies of Simple Elegance are seriously the best in KC! Again, thank you, Lauren, for making July 7th, 2018 the most perfect day!

perfect as we imagined and that's all because of her. I never worried about anything with her at the wheel and she has become an important part of our love story! I could never thank her enough for all she did for us and she's now a friend that we'll keep forever! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!

select were perfect, she was very mindful of budgets, and was very perceptive in discerning our wants and needs when we were not even sure what we wanted. On wedding day, Holly was on top of all of the details and worked tireously to make sure everything was proceeding according to plan - and making those behind the scenes adjustments when they weren't without us knowing it. Holly was a joy to work with, very personable and very well respected by all of the vendors. We would recommend Holly to anyone for any size and complexity wedding.

a day of planner for our big day but after our first meeting she truly took the reins and helped bring our visions to life. If you think you don't need a wedding planner, think again and if you think you can go with just any one you are wrong! Lauren is a top-notch planner and I the luckiest bride to have had her help. Lauren always made use feel like we had everything 100% under control even when we maybe didn’t. A couple days before our wedding there was a 100% chance of rain for our big day she totally calmed my nerves and helped me come up with the perfect Plan B. She made sure all of our vendors and members of our wedding party were in the loop... this allowed me to just totally be in the moment on the days leading up to our wedding. Trust me, you want to use Simple Elegance services!! If there were any hiccups or flaws in our day they went unnoticed because Lauren went above and beyond to make our day everything we ever dreamed of. Thank you a million times over!

her of the bride and my daughter being busy with a full-time job and grad school, we knew from the start that we needed help with the wedding planning process. I will be the first to admit that I’m not a super organized person so having Lisa guiding us through the planning, following up with our vendors, and paying attention to every detail made it all so much more enjoyable and less stressful. And on wedding day, we were able to truly enjoy the day and not have to worry about the details because Lisa and her assistant Nichole worked tirelessly to make sure it all went well. Through the 10 months of planning, Lisa coordinated everything beautifully, listening to my daughter’s vision and making great suggestions, keeping us on track with the schedule, responding in a timely manner to our many questions, and connecting us with amazing vendors who all made my daughter and son-in-law’s wedding day such a special, memorable time for our family. When I was searching for a planner, it was very important to me to find someone who both my daughter and I would find easy to work with, and Lisa was an absolute joy. She’s an excellent wedding planner and a sincere, sweet person. We would highly recommend Lisa Forbes and the Simple Elegance team!

hroughout our planning process, she kept detailed meeting notes, as well as binder with every contract and update we had. It made for a seamless wedding day. Kindra is also very connected in the Kansas City area. I have no doubt that she hooked us up with the best of the best when it came to vendors. She understands how to recommend people based on personality type and taste – something that can’t be underestimated. The cherry on top? Kindra is as sweet as can be. She was comforting, creative and confident. Wedding planning can certainly cause stress. Kindra brought a sense of calm and comfort to the process that I know we wouldn’t have gotten from anyone else in Kansas City (or beyond). On more than one occasion we said, “Promise we can stay friends after the wedding?” Trust me, there is no one better to help you during this important time in your life. Shout out to Kindra for helping us create the wedding of our dreams!

e the skills or the time to plan a 3 day Indian wedding. The only vendors we had identified at the time were our venue and our photographer. Our very first meeting with Nichole and Kindra left us with a sense of security. Despite never having planned an Indian wedding, Nichole transitioned into the role very quickly and with grace. In a span of 6 months, she was able to help us find all of our vendors, including a DJ from out of state who we had never heard of before. She was exceptionally well organized and efficient and somehow managed to discuss nearly every aspect of wedding events spanning over 3 days during a 1 hour long meeting. Planning an Indian wedding can be very challenging while dealing with vendors’ stipulations and rules which often conflict with key portions of the Indian wedding. Nichole was our advocate through the process and went above and beyond her job description to help us realize our vision of our wedding. She helped us navigate hurdles we never anticipated such as securing permission from the city to partly close a street. And we most certainly will never forget how she, so kindly, let us use her truck with her husband driving it! Every event that she had a hand in ran like a perfect production without us worrying about anything for a moment. We are delighted we had Nichole’s help with our wedding and would strongly recommend Simple Elegance!

ghtful and brought our vision to life while gently making recommendations and suggestions. She's exactly what you'd want in a wedding planner — assertive, but not pushy. And, ultimately, made sure we had the final call in every decision. No task was too small or below her. Truly, we couldn't have done it without her. You need her for your special day!

year-long engagement. She helped us communicate with all of our vendors and went out of her way to meet with us in person when we were back in town. As if she wasn't helpful enough leading up to the wedding, Holly went above and beyond on our wedding day to make sure everything went smoothly and that we enjoyed our day to the fullest. We could not have asked for a more helpful, supportive, decisive and strategic partner! We would recommend Holly and Simple Elegance to anyone planning a wedding in the Kansas City area. They are fabulous!

osing Nichole to be our day of coordinator. Literally, words cannot express how grateful we were to be able to work with Nichole - she helped create such an easy going wedding day with her attention to detail, leadership, and execution of the "day of" plan!

thoroughly as well as not being as stressed in the weeks leading up to it. We have done a wedding for our middle daughter without using a wedding planner for the "day of" and that is our one regret with that wedding. I highly recommend using Simple Elegance to help with wedding planning and the wedding day!

our decision. I read a review that someone stated something about Holly making the wedding planning process fun and stress free and that was what that bride was looking for. Their review (I read out loud to my mom) brought tears to both our eyes because that is exactly what we wanted so we KNEW who we needed to go with and we would have made the same decision if we had to do it again! Holly was the sweetest person and made sure she had our backs and made sure each vendor was giving us the right prices and deals! I was a full time graduate student and my mom was going on a 3-month bike ride across the US. Her and my dad decided a planner was needed to help take stress away. My mom and I can be a bit of a handful but Holly handled it very well and helped us plan the most perfect wedding! I am a very Type A person and Holly helped assure me we were always on target for what we needed to get done! I am so thankful for Holly and all she did for us! I tell everyone if they have the budget to hire a wedding planner because it really makes the difference. For the most part, my mom and I were so relaxed during the whole wedding process and the only things that stressed us out were out of Holly's hands. We would have been a wreck without Holly! Thank you Holly for all you did. It really is appreciated!

the flow of our wedding day. Plus, my mom was able to relax and enjoy the wedding!! Nichole communicated last minute details with all of my vendors and helped bring everything together on the day of the wedding. Using Nichole was the perfect way for us to have control over the details of the wedding (because we enjoyed planning it), but not worry about those details on the big day. She also brought some things to our attention in our last few meetings that we hadn't even thought about. The day went so perfectly! The thing is, there were probably things that went wrong behind the scenes, but that were ironed out before they became issues because of Nichole and her assistant. Nichole is extremely kind, but assertive when needed, and has great attention to detail. If I were to do it all again, I would choose her in a second, and I know that my family and bridal party would agree.

n we hit a bump, & calmness the weekend of the wedding! I also had guests & wedding party members compliment our wedding planner on her "great job", "how she kept everything running so smoothly" and for Kindra "being so calm & friendly" during the event! Will always be so thankful for Kindra's guidance during this special time in our lives- So grateful we found her @ Simple Elegance !

reated a wedding that dreams are made of and we couldn't be more grateful. Every vendor she recommended was phenomenal! I not only found a great wedding planner, but also made a friend in the process. What could be more perfect than that? She was and the wedding was... "Simply Elegant" !

in and coordinate my wedding with 6 weeks left, but she put all of my concerns to rest. She was absolutely amazing! In fact, I had little contact with any of my vendors except for Lauren in the final weeks leading up to the wedding. She coordinated absolutely EVERYTHING and took care of things I didn't even know existed! That is all not to mention her actual coordinating at the wedding, which was flawless! She knew exactly what to do and where to be at all times. She was one step ahead of me and didn't leave one thing undone! I honestly didn't worry about a single thing on my wedding day because Lauren already had it handled. Because of this, my husband and I were able to truly enjoy our wedding day, which was absolutely perfect! If you are thinking about hiring a wedding planner, don't think about it anymore, you won't regret it! Ask for Lauren!

that were scheduled and only that one because that particular florist was a good friend. She had zero ability to negotiate contracts and if there was the tiniest hint of a problem she let the vendor walk instead of helping to get the contract ironed out. Although the contract states that you get unlimited phone calls with the planner, Lisa only works Tues-Thurs and does not handle any situations at any other time or even return phone calls. We tried to find a band from out of town that would wow our guests. Lisa could not help with that either. We ultimately found our own band and negotiated all our own contracts. There were many other problems as well. When I approached the owner of Simple Elegance, hoping we could possibly be assigned a different planner, and after she heard the many things that were concerning and upsetting us, her response was WHEN MY CHILDREN HAVE A PROBLEM IN SCHOOL, I GO TO THE TEACHER NOT THE PRINCIPAL. At that point we forfeited our $3000 deposit and sought help elsewhere. Do not use this company. They do not know how to do anything except make appointments and even then she screwed up an appointment and we had to fix it. Cannot say it enough. Stay away from Simple Elegance!

ed in Houston and our parents lived in Kansas City! From the very beginning, Holly takes the time to get to know you as a couple and your vision. She is able to expertly tailor to your needs and desires by offering advice and guidance that makes you feel accomplished and stress-free. Holly navigated our schedules and concerns with the utmost professionalism and kindness - making sure that we always felt taken care of and confident at each step. She blended working with various vendors from Kansas City and Michigan seamlessly and graciously. While Holly had a previous engagement with a wedding in Kansas City for the date of our wedding and was not physically in Michigan, we definitely experienced the effects of her hard work and so pleased by the outcome of working with Holly and Simple Elegance even from afar. Holly's attention to detail and organization while planning for several events during the wedding week ensured that our vendor team was informed and efficient while giving us the opportunity to enjoy time with our friends and family that had all flown into northern Michigan all week leading up to the wedding day itself. Being able to relax and actually spend time with the people you love instead of having to worry about things as the bride and groom is invaluable! We keep reminiscing about all of the interactions we able to have with our guests that would otherwise have been missed. Choosing Simple Elegance and working with Holly has truly been one of the highlights of the wedding planning process. We are so grateful for all of the work that went into making this event such a beautiful reality!

ve been able to survive the planning process or the chaotic wedding day without her!!! She even helped fix my broken bustle...she was on her hands and knees pinning my dress....AMAZING!!!! We feel so grateful and blessed to have worked with her and HIGHLY, highly, highly recommend her to anyone!!!!! You will not be disappointed!!!!

l friends that had used her. It was the best money I spent on the wedding! She surpassed my expectations and took a majority of the work off my hands. She put me in contact with fantastic vendors, did a large portion of correspondence with the vendors, kept me organized with monthly wedding to-do lists, and kept my wedding party and family in the loop about the wedding weekend itinerary. Above all, she was present the entire day of my wedding, calmed nerves, and coordinated every single detail. I’m sure there were things that didn’t go exactly as planned that day, but I have no idea what those things were because Lisa handled everything without me ever having to make a decision or solve a problem. I’m so thankful I had her by my side and have zero regrets about hiring her!

dra they were not a problem. I am not used to letting someone else "handle details", but let me say, I could not have been more relaxed on our daughter's big day, letting Kindra take care of every little detail! She was professional, friendly, warm, reassuring and helped us feel confident in every decision we made. She offered suggestions whenever we asked. She answered our emails and phone calls immediately, never leaving us wondering if she received them. She was so easy to work with and very calming. The night of the wedding, my husband said, "She is worth every penny, whatever it was". I would agree but would add, priceless! Thank you Kindra!

d choose to coordinate my wedding! I was assigned Lauren as my wedding coordinator and couldn’t have been happier with her help and eye for detail. She went above and beyond to make sure my wedding was special and I all i had ever dreamed of! I can not speak more highly of Lauren and Simple Elegance, fabulous in every way!! They helped make my dreams and vision become the wedding of my dreams! wedding

lan on our entire wedding. With both of our jobs, a move, and seven other weddings to attend that year, we knew we needed a wedding planner. We heard about Simple Elegance through a few other vendors, and knew we needed to meet them. We had our meeting with Kindra, the owner and Lindsey our wedding planner, who came in on a Sunday just to meet with us. Our meeting was about an hour long, and I knew 15 minutes in it was a perfect fit. The amount of organization, consistency, thoughtfulness, and preparation they have for every single one of their weddings was incredible. I think I left sighing with relief. We chose the three month package, since we had already done a bit of planning before hand. But that did not keep Lindsey from constantly emailing me back with all the questions and concerns I had. I only had the evenings to wedding plan, and Lindsey was always available via phone, email or text. She truly made my wedding planning a breeze. Lindsey made it a priority to always make sure Tyler and I were happy with where we were wedding planning, so reassuring, and we are happy to say we gained a friend out of this wedding planning process. It was so easy and fun getting to know Lindsey, all while planning our wedding. She truly kept me from becoming a Bridezilla. Fast Forward to our wedding day, I did not have a single concern or worry. Once we unloaded to the church, we realized the veil was left at the reception hall where we were getting ready. Within the couple minutes it took to grab Lindsey to tell her, she had already completely handled the situation and informed me the veil was on it's way. Every where I looked on my wedding day, she was right there for Tyler and I. My entire family traveled from out of town, and knowing that my Mom, my Mother in Law, and bridal party did not have to worry about anything and just truly enjoy themselves, was the greatest feeling. And Lindsey and the Simple Elegance team made that possible, 100%. I would recommend them over and over again to any future brides.

r exceptional service: 1) Access to her night & day, weekends too. She was never too busy to follow up with us. 2) Preplanning meetings were ran with extreme efficiency and all vendors were well informed through multiple communications. 3) Rehearsal dinner was project managed with precision and the day of the wedding was executed without any flaws. All in all, my husband & I were able to enjoy every moment of our magical day without a care in the world. We expected strong project management and WOW, Lindsey exceeded all of our expectations. We are very pleased and highly recommend Simple Elegance.

my mom feel at ease during the last few weeks of planning and all of our other vendors complimented her skills! If we did it all over again I would hire Lauren again with no hesitation!!

fficiently. She and her assistant Megan kept the reception on track and in order through to the very last guest departing. Thanks Simple Elegance for allowing the family and friends to focus on the wedding and not the details.

when I came in town. She was so organized and thought of things I wouldn't have. It was so nice the week before the wedding to enjoy our special time and not worry about contacting vendors and ensuring they would be there on time. She definitely kept everyone in line! My wedding was pretty big and it could have easily been a logistical nightmare, but Nichole was able to walk through each step of the day and create an efficient solution! The day of was completely stress free!!! I knew when I walked into my venue everything was going to look beautiful but she truly exceeded my expectations. Thank you for being my go to person and making my day run smoothly!!! I would highly recommend this company to future brides!
