Kate is amazing! From the moment we started planning, she was incredibly supportive and organized. Her attention to detail is impeccable, and she truly went above and beyond to make our wedding incredible. She worked with our busy schedules and was a friendly voice and support throughout the entire process. Her expertise and ability to understand and get to know us made our ever-changing vision a reality. Kate’s calm and reassuring presence on the wedding day itself was invaluable. She made it possible for us to relax and enjoy every moment. We highly recommend Kate to any couple planning their wedding – she is a true professional and a joy to work with.

I knew from the first call with Kate that she was the right choice for our coordinator. She kept me on track through the entire planning process, rehearsal, and day of the wedding. She even made me a custom planning timeline that I used more than any other planning tool and was so thankful to have it as a guide. She was always available for questions and made my entire bridal era stress free. I can be very type A and like things to be done the way I would do them. Kate 1000% exceeded my expectations and had my full faith and trust to get things done the way I would. We got SO MANY compliments from our bridal party and families about how organized Kate and her assistant were at our wedding and how smooth the entire day went because of them. We cannot thank them both enough for everything and I would give them 10 stars if possible! Hire Simply Sapphire for your wedding ASAP, you will absolutely not regret it!

Kate was our wedding planner for our destination wedding in St. Lucia. From day one she displayed excellent communication skills, attention to detail, and was clearly dedicated to her profession. Kate was an immense help every step of the way. She communicated directly with several members of the Sandals wedding staff, which were located in two different countries (St. Lucia and Jamaica) and made sure that accurate thorough information was being received by all Sandals staff involved. She was extremely receptive and encouraging when receiving feedback from my wife and I. Kate’s extensive experience was clearly displayed throughout the entire planning phase. She also provided valuable insight into the nuances of weddings that we would have over looked. Kate traveled to St. Lucia with us and was an absolute god send to have on the day of the wedding. She streamlined communication across the board and ensured that all aspects of the day (and days leading up) ran smoothly. Kate provided us with detailed check lists, deadlines, and itinerary through each step of the process. Kate has an extremely personable, charismatic, friendly, and professional demeanor and was an absolute joy to be around. Kate will have my wife and I’d glowing endorsement forever and we couldn’t be happier that we decided to utilize her services for our wedding.

Kate Anderson is absolutely amazing at her job!! From the moment we first spoke, Kate made me feel totally calm and prepared for our big day. She was so well organized and took care of allllll the things, that I never once felt stressed as a bride. She cared so much about the special details and was so patient with my entire family through all the planning. I can't imagine planning a wedding without Kate. She made my big day so special and I'll forever be grateful for her 💜

Kate was so professional and lovely to work with.
She went above and beyond to bring my dreams to life and made wedding planning a breeze.
She made her job look easy, always on time for meetings, and always going over every single detail with nothing forgotten.
Not only did she stay on task with wedding to-dos but often checked in on me and how I was feeling along the journey knowing that it can be stressful and I really appreciated that.
I would hire her again and again and again, she’s the best!

Kate was extremely helpful in planning my destination wedding in Costa Rica! I couldn’t imagine not having her to guide me every step of the way. She was so pleasant to chat with and always kept me on track. She was also very organized and supportive throughout the entire process! Even after the wedding she continued to follow up which I really appreciate.

Kate was such an amazing help
She made me feel cool calm and collective! I am a very anxious person so I knew if I was doing the wedding planning on my own I wouldn't know where to start and I would be freaking out the whole time but Kate I didn't I didn't stress at all actually
She made it very easy for me
She was great I highly recommend her to everyone

Kate Anderson of Simply Sapphire Events was a CRUCIAL and amazing asset to our wedding day. She was so helpful, responsive, and had great insight and advice for any questions I had. She made wedding planning a breeze and really took any stress away! I would not hesitate to book her for all of your planning needs. As someone who had a destination wedding RUN to book her services. She has close relationships with the vendors and where it would take you a month for a reply she gets one in a few days if not same day. Especially if you haven't been to the resort, she has been to most several times and really understands the layout, knows the staff/vendors, how things run etc. We paid to also have her on site for the wedding and it was worth every penny. On your wedding day you there is so much going on so to have her there fielding questions, dealing with vendors, etc. made my day run so smoothly and allowed me to be in the moment. I was guilty of underestimating things at times "oh that won't be too hard, oh I can handle that" and quickly realized that was not the case. So having her there was imperative to my day running smoothly. And even if it was something I could have handled why not have someone there to take away the work and let you relax and enjoy the day? (Side note- during hair/makeup she would take pictures and show the girls and ensure they really liked their looks. If she could tell you were just being nice or were too shy to say anything she ensured the staff got it right! I loved that and so did my bridesmaids!) Multiple bridesmaids and guests asked about her services at my wedding because they saw in real time how organized, professional, and on the ball she was. Truly the best money we spent on our wedding! If you are on the fence about hiring a wedding planner why have yourself spread thin and be stressed on the most important day of your life? Book her asap!!

I am thrilled to share my rave review for our Wedding planner, Kate Anderson, who truly was our guardian angel throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the very beginning, she took charge of all the instructions and provided us with invaluable guidance. Her exceptional communication skills played a vital role in ensuring a seamless collaboration between us and our Wedding Planner in Punta Cana.
Kate’s dedication to maintaining open lines of communication was truly remarkable. She always made herself available to address any concerns or queries we had, promptly and effectively. Her ability to relay our ideas and preferences to the Punta Cana coordinator was nothing short of stellar. It felt as though she had a direct line to our vision, ensuring that every intricate detail was meticulously executed.
Not only did Kate excel in her role as a communicator, but she also proved to be an exceptional problem solver. She anticipated any potential hurdles and proactively found solutions, sparing us unnecessary stress and allowing us to fully enjoy the wedding planning journey. Her attention to detail and organizational skills were second to none, leaving us with unwavering confidence in her ability to bring our dream wedding to life.
In addition to her professional expertise, her warm and personable nature made working with her an absolute pleasure. She truly cared about our happiness and went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our wedding exceeded our expectations. Her genuine passion for her craft shone through in every interaction, making us feel like we were her top priority.
We are forever grateful for her guidance and support, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a flawless wedding planning experience.

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding day, and it's all thanks to Simply Sapphire Events. From the moment we engaged their services, we knew we were in capable hands. Our destination wedding at El Dorado Royale in Mexico was a dream come true, and it wouldn't have been possible without their expertise and dedication.
With 97 guests in attendance, there were plenty of moving parts to coordinate, but Simply Sapphire Events handled everything seamlessly. From the initial planning stages to the day-of coordination, they were with us every step of the way. Their attention to detail and ability to understand our vision truly made our wedding day magical.
One of the things we appreciated most about Simply Sapphire Events was their responsiveness and flexibility. No question or concern was too small, and they were always quick to offer solutions and suggestions. Their professionalism and warmth put us at ease throughout the entire process, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment of our wedding day.
The team at Simply Sapphire Events went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our wedding was perfect. From the stunning decor to the flawless execution of the timeline, everything exceeded our expectations. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful and memorable our wedding was, and we have Simply Sapphire Events to thank for that.
If you're looking for a wedding planner who will turn your vision into reality and make your special day truly unforgettable, look no further than Simply Sapphire Events. We can't recommend them highly enough.
Thank you, Simply Sapphire Events, for making our wedding day the best day of our lives.
Warm regards,
Mr. & Mrs. Smith

Kate was beyond what i had hoped for as a wedding planner. She treated me like family and was there for me through all the stressors that come with planning your big day. A day I’ve dreamt of since a little girl. She ensured all my wishes came true. She eased the fear of the unknowns being destination and provided great vendors and options to chose from. I could not recommend her enough as my wedding planner.

I cannot stress this enough.... If you want a successful event you NEED Kate! Just to give a small back story I work in the same if not very similar industry as Kate. This means that I knew what to expect and what I wanted and I stated that to Kate very clearly. Not only was she on top of everything at every second she always made sure me and my husband were good. I have never been so happy with someone before and I will be recommending Kate to all of my friends who just so happen to be getting married now. Kate is organized, always answered her phone, and simply just the best person I could have ever hired. I told my husband that for the entire weekend of my event which included a welcome party and my wedding I didn't stress for a minute. (This is extremely impressive because I am such a type A person and stress over everything)... I cannot say it enough but I am so happy with Kate's services !!!! Team Kate all the way.

Kate was prepared to conquer any obstacle that came in the way of creating our dream wedding, while doing it all with such grace and professionalism.

I can't recommend Kate enough as a wedding planner, especially if you're planning a destination wedding. It's only been three months since we started planning for my wedding in Punta Cana next year, and I can already say that Kate has been a complete godsend.
She's been my go-to whenever I need advice, a shoulder to cry on, reassurance, or someone to go to bat for me. Her level of dedication and expertise in handling the initial stages of wedding planning has been truly amazing. Thanks to her, I haven't had to worry about a thing.
Kate's communication skills and professionalism are unparalleled. She's always quick to respond to my questions and concerns, and her attention to detail has made all the difference in ensuring that my wedding planning process has been as smooth and stress-free as possible.
I can't thank Kate enough for all that she's done for me, and I know that any couple who chooses to work with her will be in excellent hands. I highly recommend her to anyone planning a destination wedding. Thank you, Kate, for everything! I'm sure I'll be back here in a year to write a glowing review post wedding as well!!

I highly recommend Kate and her crew! She helped us plan a wedding in 7 weeks which is a definite challenge. The whole time, Kate had a positive "we got this" attitude which really helped us stay calm. Kate is an excellent negotiator! Her skills in this area will likely save you much more than her fee. She will pay close attention to your budget and get the best deals. Also, I appreciated her direct and clear communication style. Kate also went out of her way to help us when we were in a jam by making last minute runs that she was not obligated to do. You will be in good hands with Kate!

I cannot recommend Simply Sapphire Events more. Kate was absolutely incredible from start to finish with my wedding! She is creative, responsive, organized, and a great listener. She was honestly my rock throughout the whole process (thank you kate). She sourced every single vendor i had, found the best pricing and would go above and beyond by making everything so organized for me. I had been warned by so many people about how stressful planning a wedding is...that was simply not my experience at all with Kate in charge. She's so great at her job everyone can see that, she kept the wedding running on time (and within budget), and she made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. The day of the wedding all of my family members were commenting on how amazing Kate was at seamlessly keeping things on track all with a huge smile on her face. She is by far the best in the business and hiring her was the best decision i made in the whole process besides marrying my husband! You will not regret booking her and i will be sure to hire and recommend her forever!!!

Kate did a fantastic job handling all my Day of Coordinator needs, and taking the time to have check-ins leading up to the day. She provided the most helpful planning tools and was my main source of calm the day of. She is professional but friendly - and knows how to connect with all types of vendors. Even my family is still raving about her days after! Highly recommend Simply Sapphire Events!

Look no further!! Words cannot describe how amazing Kate is & was leading up to and on our wedding day! We hired her as our Day of Coordinator, but she did so much more than that. She helps with vendor recommendations and helps to keep you organized leading up to your wedding. I felt such an ease on the day of our wedding knowing she was behind the scenes, working everything exactly how we wished it to be, even with day of changes! She is also so much fun to have around, which is such a bonus because your entire day should be fun. We cannot recommend Simply Sapphire Events enough!

Let me first say I put A LOT of pressure on Kate. We had family fly in for a surprise visit from out of the country so we planned my wedding in about a month, (STRESS) and honestly, without Kate, my wedding would not have happened. She CRUSHED it!! We hired her as our day of coordinator and honestly, if I had to do it again, I would hire her without a doubt. Her attention to detail is incredible and she truly was such an asset. She answered all my questions leading up to the day and not once made me feel like I was bothering her. (Believe me, I had a TON of questions so it was so nice to have her to bounce ideas off and for support.) Thank you got everything Kate! You’re the BEST!! (She brought an assistant with her for the day of as well (Erin) and she was as helpful and supportive as Kate.) Honestly, hire them! You will not be disappointed!!

Kate is an absolutely amazing wedding planner!!! From her support when I was stressed, to her spreadsheets which I love and kept me so organized, to always being available to help me in any way that she could. She is the type of person that seems to know everything and in the rare case when she didn't know something, she certainly did her research and found out!
She advocates for her brides and it is this quality that makes her such amazing wedding planner (esp. for a destination wedding)! She really goes above and beyond for her clients. She is a friend, support person, and organizer.
Kate's support and assistance throughout the wedding planning process is just simply something I will never forget!!
