    Kinsza exceeded my expectations 100% for the baby shower to celebrate my first baby girl! Kinsza is far more then just a planner, she is there to relieve you of any possible stress so that you can simply enjoy the beautiful stage of your life. Rather I’m having a wedding, baby shower, or a small event I will be contacting Kinsza (I Thee Wed). I have fallen in love!❤️

    I have had the pleasure of working with a variety of wedding planners; however none of them come close to measuring up to Kinsza and her team. They are kind, passionate, and dedicated as if they were your family. Beyond prepared and even more ready to problem solve on the fly! Thank you for making world class events with NOAHS and we can’t wait to have you back! Please consider Kinsza and team- you will not regret it! (Look at that floor crawling dedication)

    The I Thee Wed team is 100% amazing hands down. They are professional in all ways. We could count that if a decision needed to be made and we weren't there to make that decision that I Thee Wed would make the right decision. Whenever you feel overwhelmed you can count that a text or call to them and you will be at ease once you realize they are one step ahead. Our wedding was in California (west coast) and I Thee Wed (East coast) took that challenge and ran. Our wedding was more than amazing. Their linen rentals and drapery is beautiful. Floral recommendation was beyond expectation.

    This was my second opportunity to use I Thee Wed, (Kinza does more than weddings)..... I was more amazed, which I didn't think could be possible. Kinza and her team make it there business to get to know you, and once that happens its so easy, effortless for them to assist you in your decision making, help you to get off the fence, as well as keep you on track and on budget. They have a no stress zone, tell them what you want and she can make your visions/dreams into realities. Once you get to know Kinza she will become part of your family, we just love her so!

You will definitely not be disappointed with the quality of work from this terrific team! Kinsza is the most amazing woman ever and was there for me every step of the way! I cannot thank you enough!! Y'all made me the happiest woman alive!

    Kinsza is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING as a wedding planner! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER! She is professional, personable, and completely down to earth. She is absolutely walking in her purpose as a wedding planner.

    From the beginning my husband (then fiance) and I felt an immediate connection with her. Within 15 minutes following our initial meeting with Kinsza, we called and cancelled our later meetings with other planners and immediately hired her. We knew the moment we left our meeting with her, if we wanted a beautiful and well managed wedding, we'd better hire Kinsza. She completely surpassed our expectations. She was always organized, and quick to handle any issue that came about during the planning process. All of our vendors were even impressed by her. Literally every vendor of ours commented on our wedding planner and how "on it" she was. She reached out to all the other wedding vendors and stayed in constant communication with them to assure that no issue would arise come the wedding day. Our bridal party also commented on how amazing our wedding planner was. Weeks prior to the wedding, she emailed the bridal party the itinerary for the entire wedding weekend. Other amazing things Kinsza did, she provided a hairstylist for the flower girls at the last minute; she provided some of her wedding equipment & linens at the last minute; she handled a difficult situation with the bartender company the day of the wedding; she was available at all times; etc. Honestly I could go on and on about how amazing Kinsza was as our wedding planner. Kinsza made our wedding absolutely perfect, and for that we will forever be grateful to her.

    The day of the wedding, her wedding team were wonderful! They were all completely professional and genuinely kind. Our guest commented to us how impressed they were with our wedding planner and her team. As I said above, I highly recommend 'I Thee Wed'! They will make your day memorable and perfect.

    Kara,

    Thank you very much for your kind words. It means the world to me and my team to know that we helped make your day a dream come true. It has been an absolute pleasure getting to know you, your amazing parents and husband. We are here for you and can't wait to here all of the amazing things that you and Darian achieve together.
    Once your wedding planner, always your wedding planner!
    Be well-
    Kinsza

    Mrs. Kinsza was very professional. We, Diane and Archie Fletcher, (parents of the bride) were pleased with her services. We felt that she paid close attention to detail which helped to make the wedding full of special memories. Mrs. Kinsza took charge of many aspects of the event and had good suggestions and references in hiring other vendors. Thank you for everything.

    Words cannot express the gratitude I have towards Kinsza. I initially met with Kinsza to hire her only for draping because I saw her work at the vendor I was going to have my wedding at but after meeting with her and talking to her about the wedding in general I realized I was out of my lane. At the time of planning my wedding I was working 10-12hours a day and all of my family live out of state. Time was an issue for me even though I was planning a year out.
    Kinsza helped me prioritize and list things I would need – At a drapery meeting. I then realized that she decorated and was a wedding planner. I am in no way rich just an everyday person- I mention that because I wanted a wedding planner but it was not in the budget so Kinsza offered me “THE DAY OF SERVICE”- Best decision I could have ever made. I hired Kinsza for draping, decorating and her “day of service” –
    To My Future Brides – please recieve this lesson that cost me. I hired a vendor before meeting Kinsza and that vendor went out of business 2 weeks before my wedding. If there is anyway (payment arrangement is an option) to hire a Kinsza who knows the business, the local vendors and can refer other vendors who have been in the business, are reliable, professional and provide excellent service you should do it by any means. I already have trust issues with paying people I do not know in hopes that they come through a year later for YOUR WEDDING- Kinsza not only cares but held my held hand while trying to find a new venue and became my friend who was excited about my wedding while my family and friends where too far away to be involved and I didn’t want them to know the drama I was having with wedding plans that fell through – you don’t want that to be the tone of your wedding ..right 
    Side Note- After the wedding my wedding guest praise Kinsza and her team, they did stuff I had no idea was happening and handled all questions/issue that came up –

    WOW, was the word of everyone's lips walking into that ballroom, i remember people saying " this is the type of wedding we see on television". Kinsza and her team did an amazing job at my wedding. She turned my wedding into a beautiful and glamerous event...she went above and beyond our expectation and executed everything with perfection. She is very professional and reliable we had nothing to stress about on our wedding day because we knew she will take care of every detail. She is very flexible and always ajusted her time to meet with me, or vendors. She didn't hesitate to drive 40 miles to go pick up my invitation or come with me to my wedding gown fitting. She made me feel like the only bride she was working with, like i was her top priority.
    My husband was so impressed on how everything turned out. kinzsa is top of the line in this business. Hiring her was by far the best decision we made.

    Kinsza of I Thee Wed is simply amazing! In the beginning, my fiance and I wasn't sure how a wedding planner would fit into our budget, but we also knew that having a wedding planner was a must. After meeting a other planners, it was clear to see that I Thee Wed was highly qualified and that our dream wedding would become a reality. The rate for services is very affordable and the vendor referrals were great! Kinsza made sure I was not worried about anything during the total wedding planning experience, and she attended every vendor meeting to ensure we were getting excellent service at the best value. Our wedding was beautiful and we couldn't imagine not having I thee Wed as part of our special day!

    Kinsza is beyond amazing! She gets to know her brides and helps them plan their wedding as if it was her own. She made herself available to me at all times. She was professional and I went through the planning process with no stress. She went way above and beyond my expectations of a planner. My wedding was amazing because of her talent as well as the talented vendors that she connected me with. She took my vision and expanded its beauty and made sure I had the best day of my life! The day was flawless! I cannot say enough about her. If you want to have a gorgeous, fun, stress free day to remember, choose I the wed for your wedding planning needs!

    Kinsza Virgil is one of the most talented resourceful and most importantly professional wedding planners I have ever worked with. It truly is a pleasure wirking with her, she really knows how to control the flow of a wedding day. Her style and execution is total elegance. She made my job a thousand times easier, and her professional touches- things like having stationary available, custom uplighting and beautifully designed tablescapes made the environment, and consequently the photography come out so much nicer.

    Kinsza was a wonderful wedding planner. I don't think we could have survived without her on our big day. She was there for every step of the way. She was professions, personable, organized and the reason we stayed close to budget. I recommend her to any bride who wants a stress free wedding or event. She is truly the best!! We adore her!

    Kinsza and her awesome team handled every aspect of our event. She was a true professional and perfectionist.
    She made sure the wedding was on time, high style and that we had the best vendors. She handled the alterations, make up artist, centerpieces, vocalist, musician, aisle runner, linen... The list goes on.
    We recommend her to everyone we know.
    I <3 I Thee Wed they truly made my wedding dreams come true!!
