About

Your event. Your story.

There are only a handful of days, you can define as the biggest in your life. An occasion to shine. A time all about you. A celebration of your unique story.

Why on this biggest of days would you do what others have already done?

Sure, it is easy. It’s safe. It’s comfortable.

But is it really you? Does it let people in? Does it let them see the real you? We challenge you to abandon tradition. Let go of what is expected. And embrace you.

To do this you need a partner, a confidante, a guide to help you achieve and surpass the vision in your head. Quintessential Events goes beyond the status quo, by getting to know the real you. We learn the ins and outs of what makes you tick. From your daily style to long-term aspirations, we know what you will and won’t like before you even say anything.

This personal approach is what takes the basic event to the next level. We are able to uniquely create experiences and design details that are part of the bigger story. Yours.

Combine this with flawless execution and immense attention to detail, and you have hit on the very essence of who we are. We live to create a seamless, stress-free day that tells your story.

We meet and exceed expectations by going that extra mile to ensure the day is more than you could have ever imagined. Our clients and couples look to us as not only the single best investment they made. More simply, the reason they were able to enjoy one of life’s great moments.

We are Quintessential Events. Let’s plan the day only you can have.

Best wedding planner in KC

Sarah, Brooke and the rest of the QE team made the wedding planning process smooth, easy and honestly SO fun. I cannot imagine doing any of the planning without them. My wedding day was flawless thanks to them! Not to mention, it was far more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. I wish I could take credit for some of it- but honestly, they did it all and wow, they outdid themselves. Thank you QE for throwing the biggest, baddest, most beautiful party of my life.

Best planner you’ll find!!

Sarah was everything we could ask for in a wedding planner and SO MUCH MORE! She was attentive to detail, extremely communicative, answered every little question I had, and an absolute joy to work with from the start to the very finish (and even after the wedding!). She truly cares so much about what she does and it was so nice to be able to let go and put our full and complete trust in her. Her team is incredible and made sure everything ran perfectly on our wedding day. We truly could not have had our dream wedding without Quintessential Events and are forever grateful! Cannot recommend them highly enough!!

Trustworthy and Professional

After interviewing a few Wedding Planners we decided to hire Sarah with Quintessential Events for our daughter's wedding. Best decision we made! Sarah responds promptly which was super important to us. With it being our first wedding to plan we relied heavily on Sarah for her expertise and vendor connections/recommendations. It became evident to us early on that Sarah has a great rapport with KC vendors in the wedding industry! Sarah's knowledge, organizational skills and professionalism made our daughter's wedding and reception stress-free for us. Our reception had many moving parts including a plated dinner for over 300 guests. As the MOB I was asked many times throughout the process including day of and during the reception if I was nervous and stressed. I can honestly say I answered No because I was so confident in Sarah and her team to pull off an extraordinary event. My husband and I were able to truly enjoy our daughter and son-in-laws beautiful day because we were in such good hands with Quintessential Events. I am a very detail orientated person which Sarah respected, and she exceeded our expectations. With such a large event I'm sure there were hiccups throughout the day but I was not aware as Sarah just handled it, leaving us to just enjoy the day and soak it all in. We cannot recommend QE enough if you are looking for an event planner who knows how to get the job done and make it look stress-free!
