When I look back at my wedding and all the planning that went into it, the biggest mistake I made was getting a wedding planner…at least this one. Kitty will make a great first impression on you – that’s about the only thing she does well. She claims to have 40 years of experience, but come to find out she only recently received some planning training. She did an ok job in the beginning, but as the date got closer, as we made more monthly payments to her, and as the planning started to get hectic, she became very lazy. Things she had agreed to do for us were now thrown on our plate, and we felt more disorganized as the wedding day neared.

She constantly came up with excuses, did not communicate clearly and often lost important information. She complained about planning our wedding, was disgruntled about doing anything out of the ordinary, and was extremely grumpy on our wedding day. She was horrible at following through with our vendors and if it weren’t for my family and friends, I wouldn’t have trusted my wedding day to be the dream it was. We felt more worn out with the planning than if we had done everything ourselves! Kitty is not someone I would recommend to hire as your wedding planner. To put it nicely, stay away!
