Stephanie D. Sent on 11/08/2023Don't hesitate booking Kate!!!
My husband and I both highly endorse Kate as a wedding coordinator! Reflecting back on our wedding day and the planning leading up to it, we're so thankful we booked Kate to help with month-of coordination and execution. She is organized, straightforward and made the process so much less stressful for both ourselves and our families. -

Kate was the most amazing wedding coordinator. She brought my vision to life and on the day of the wedding I didn’t have to think of a thing I cannot thank her enough for the most memorable experience of my life would hire her again in a heartbeat you won’t be disappointed. -

Kate was so incredibly helpful through virtually every stage of the wedding planning process. She made sure all major aspects of the wedding day were handled, ensuring we were able to solely focus on enjoying the moment and not stressing about behind the scenes details. Kate truly helped make our wedding dreams become a reality and I would highly recommend her to anyone else :) -

Amazing!! Highly Recommend Kate!!
As a former Summer 2023 bride, working with Kate was amazing! She was so attentive and understood the vision I was going for on the big day. There were a lot of moving parts to my wedding and was so thankful to have her.
At first I wasn’t sure about getting a coordinator in general but it was the best money spent. She gave me peace of mind on the day of that everything would be handled! And let me tell you brides, so much happens within the last week leading up to the wedding and having Kate be there, was amazing. Even with things switching around less than a day before the wedding, she had it all covered.
Highly Recommend Kate to anyone looking for a coordinator. My family and I talk about it still to this day that it was one of the best decisions I made during the wedding planning process, was hiring her. I am a type A person and had several details that I was looking for to be executed on the day of, and she made it all happen. There’s so many little things that have to happen behind the scenes on the big day, that the bride shouldn’t have to be worrying about. Kate allowed me to focus on what was happening in the moment rather than worrying about all the little things.
I am extremely thankful to have had Kate on my wedding day and for all the peace of mind it brought me. She came to the meetings with my husband and I, asked questions I didn’t even think to ask, and was great to work with all the way through. Again, if you are looking for a coordinator, Kate is your person!!

The best decision I made for our wedding
Kate is EVERYTHING. Go inquire right now and consider yourself blessed if she has availability for your date.
Hiring Kate was probably the smartest decision we made while wedding planning and I can’t emphasize enough what an absolute *PLEASURE* it was having her on our team. She allowed me to enjoy the planning process, and on our wedding day, Kate was everywhere all the time, taking care of business. I would hire Kate for every wedding in every lifetime if for no other reason than the reassurance I felt having her in my corner (there are, of course, many many more reasons to hire Kate. Like her clear communication, organization, ability to bring your vision to life, and the emotional support she provides.) Seriously… you’ll be so grateful you did… go hire her -

An Absolute Dream!
To sum up our experience with Valley & Oak Events, our wedding would have never happened without hiring for our wedding planner! From the monthly calls to just ease our minds, to the best day of our lives and making our vision come to life, hiring Valley & Oak Events was the key to our dream wedding. Kate has such a professional relationship with her clients that was also so personal, it made all the stress and worry about planning such an event truly memorable and enjoyable. Our guests and family were also very impressed with her organization and overall care for ensuring her clients have the wedding they always envisioned. Do not hesitate to hire Valley & Oak Events! It will be the best decision you make during what could be a stressful time. We had the wedding of our dreams and majority of this is due to making Valley & Oak apart of our wedding. -

As the father of the bride you want the best for your daughter and for things to go seamlessly on Wedding day. Kate provided it all, she worked tirelessly to make sure that every detail was taken care of and that we could simply enjoy the day without worry. She has a wonderful personality that puts everyone immediately at ease and exudes the confidence that she has this all under control. Her willingness to do the dirty work and help until the lights went out did not go unnoticed. We so appreciated everything she did, especially with this being a remote wedding for us. We have family in Michigan, but all of the conversations prior to our arrival were with Kate in GR and the wedding couple back in Minnesota. When you are dealing with a distance like that trust is of the upmost and we can honestly say, that you can feel confident putting all of your trust in Kate! She is a Superstar! -

Rachel G. Sent on 09/17/2020Essential to my wedding day!
I plan events as part of my job and know how to handle vendors, contracts, timelines, and budgets. But I knew I didn't want to handle the stress leading up to my wedding. Having Kate from Valley & Oak Events as my day-of coordinator was essential. She executed all of the plans I put in place so I didn't have to and neither did my family members. All of my guests and family got to enjoy the day because they all knew Kate was taking care of it. Kate was a great sounding board for final decisions and really helped with the Friday running around--even stepping in when I almost missed a vendor pickup due to an early closing on Fridays. Kate also acted as the catering staff setting up the desserts, refreshing, and clearing plates at my small dessert only reception with friends. She welcomed and wrangled my vendors when they arrived at the reception site too, which is key to making sure your vision is realized. If you're trying to plan a budget wedding, this is not the service you want to skimp on. Invest in peace of mind and hire Kate! -

Samantha J. Sent on 10/14/2021Book Kate, she is amazing!
When my husband and I first started the wedding planning process, hiring Kate as our wedding coordinator was one of the first and easiest decisions we made. We had the luxury of meeting Kate prior to booking her for our day, as she was the coordinator for a couple of our friend's weddings. We saw what a wonderful job she did and our friends talked so highly of her. We got married on family property so I knew that we could not get through our day without hiring Kate. She was there whenever I needed her throughout the whole process. She was even able to snag last minute rentals for our guest tables that made the reception area look perfect and polished. Her eye for style and attention to deal is outstanding. She is so professional and on top of everything! If there were any issues or hiccups on our day- I did not know about them because Kate took care of everything. Hiring Kate to be our wedding coordinator was absolutely the right and best decision we made throughout the wedding planning process and I would recommend her to anyone!! -

Kate with Valley and Oak was worth every penny. She stuck with us through Covid and multiple venue location changes. She was also a huge help the day of with strong leadership and good experience to avoid potential problems. -

Cannot imagine the wedding without her!
My family and I are "do-ers" and are quite accustomed to doing the work for big events, being organized, etc. For this reason, we've never had planners or coordinators. For my wedding, however, we had Kate, and I can't imagine not having her. She did so much, I still am amazed as I find out about more things she did behind the scenes. Every detail of my vision was achieved thanks to Kate. She even drove me and my husband to our hotel after the party! -

Josh M. Sent on 04/27/2021The ABSOLUTE BEST wedding planner I’ve EVER worked with!
I am a professional DJ that has done hundreds of events across the country. I’ve worked with many different wedding planners, event coordinators, and the like and honestly have had so many bad experiences or I knew more about the clients and their event than they did that it really made me question working/partnering with wedding planners at all. Then I meet Kate! I have NEVER worked with a wedding planner that was so organized, so professional, on top of EVERYTHING, was confident, ran the show, COMMUNICATED, all while being so much fun to work with! We laughed so much! She even helped me load some equipment up without me even asking for help, she WANTED to do it! Kate is amazing and the ABSOLUTE BEST wedding planner I’ve EVER worked with! Don’t waste your time looking for the perfect wedding planner, she’s right here...4REAL! -

Amazing experience
Kate was so amazing to work with, we had quite a few changes with COVID and she rolled right with it giving us the most beautiful, relaxing day. If you are looking for a stress free wedding I highly recommend Kate! -
