Absolutely amazing

Kristina was our wedding coordinator and she was the best decision that we made. She was incredibly calming and reassuring throughout our wedding planning and we knew that we could count on her. Throughout the small inconveniences that popped up, she was always ready and willing to help sort things out. We honestly do not know what we would have done without her and we are so grateful that we had her there to guide us through the planning process!

True Team Members!

Kristina was our partner in crime for over two years (thanks to Covid and having to delay for 9 months), and we are so thankful to have her throughout the entire process. It was a difficult time planning and replanning the wedding, and Kristina was supportive, honest and kept us apprised of all the next steps. No matter what we knew we could count on her to bring our vision to life and she was a huge help coordinating with all of our vendors. We had no hesitation handing over the reins on the day of, confident that all the details would come together and everything turned out perfectly!

Best wedding planner in Maine!

Kristina was the absolutely BEST! My now husband and I planned a last minute wedding after having to pivot a few times due to COVID. This was the third wedding we planned spanning from CA to NC then ME. Kristina was the first planner I met with and instantly clicked. She was amazing to work with, kept us on schedule - especially the week of, helped source amazing, budget-friendly vendors and ensured the day went smoothly. Both my husband and I were able to relax and soak up the day with our family who we hadn't seen in over a year! She took every precaution necessary due to COVID ensuring our day was safe yet special. I can't recommend Kristina enough!
