We reached out to Katlin October 2021 after seeing her on the list from South Coast as a preferred vendor and out of all the vendors we had talked to, she came off as the one we vibed with the most! We ended up booking with her in January 2022 with the base package but we ended up upgrading to a higher package shortly after since we were located in NorCal and needed a bit more help.
The higher package gave us access to aisle planner which was absolutely necessary for us as it gave us a timeline and checklist of things we needed to complete. Without it, I bet we would have procrastinated until this May or missed out on a lot of small details.
Throughout this year and a half with her, she's been super responsive to all our email/texts and was really helpful with giving vendor recommendations and advice. She even showed up to our menu tasting at South Coast last December on short notice so we were able to meet her in person and go over the spacing/vendor placement on our venue! Closer to our wedding day, we nailed down the schedule of events and went over our vendor list.
During the rehearsal, our friends were all a little nervous but she's pretty hilarious so that calmed our nerves and we were all really excited for the next day by the end of it!
Everything went so smoothly on the day of the wedding! She dropped by when we were getting ready to say hi and then darted off to start setting up. We didn't get to see her much because she's constantly flitting around arranging all the vendors, setting all the details up, and making sure we were running on time. We truly appreciate how hard Katlin and her assistant worked so that we could enjoy our day without worrying about vendors and decorations!
I think one thing to remember is, even though you have this list from her, most of the items are on you to handle as the list is just a guideline. You're responsible for getting your dress done on time, the little decorations if you want those, the extra vendors if you want them as well. She's great to lean on for advice and to be a sounding board but you are still responsible for moving the needle.
I highly recommend working with Katlin for your wedding day! She is the fairy godmother of everyones Disneyland (maybe even shrek) dreams! Our day went by so smoothly and it's all due to her and her team. If she's still around when we renew our vows, we'll definitely work with her again! We truly miss her already. read more
