Kristin is so amazing - the ultimate wedding planner, organizer, attention to detail - impressive! She was very respectful and on top of it the whole day. Her performance was totally professional - from her staff to her vendors. Everything was set up timely and beautifully. She more than exceeded our expectations. Her knowledge and experience shines bright. She is the gal in control, and I highly recommend her. As the mother of the groom, I am so very happy that she made the day VERY, VERY SPECIAL. Iʻm proud of Kristin and her team and recommend her whole-heartedly. You will not be disappointed. Sheʻs the best! read more

Kristen Carter Events was the best choice we made for wedding planner! My daughter was married April 15, 2023 and everything was perfection! Erica was proactive, always on top of every detail we did and didn't think of. The preferred vendors were spot on, from timeline, photos, videos, flowers, catering and so on! Highly recommend!

I cannot speak highly enough of Kristin and April. I am convinced they are the best wedding planners in Austin, TX (and likely everywhere else, too). I was not the type of bride who had been planning her wedding for years and had a Pinterest board at the ready, so I had a ton of questions. Kristin and April were incredibly responsive and supportive throughout the entire process. There was some unexpected construction at my venue that required us to alter the initial vision we'd planned for my wedding. While I was heartbroken, Kristin and April went above and beyond to take care of me, scheduling additional visits to the venue and working with the venue coordinator to make sure that I had the wedding of my dreams. When it came to my actual wedding day, April took care of everything. I really felt like I could enjoy the day and be fully present with my husband and my guests without stressing about any of the details. It was truly the best day of my life, and I think it is in large part because of Kristin Catter Events. I will forever be grateful to them. read more

I actually sent this to Kristin of Kristin Catter Events and I thoroughly I should copy and paste it as a review. For all of those couples who planned their wedding on their own and it was a nightmare and for the bride to be that is wondering if a wedding planner is worth the money...... she is. If you hire her, you will STILL save far more on the vendors you select because of her connections and her reputation. I want to give her my money. She is truly the wedding planner like J lo lol. I've enjoyed her and I will use her in the future for other events. Kristin, We appreciate you so much. I do things on my own. Usually. Because I know they'll get some right. It's made me really good at Nursing and makes me stand out as a leader. The truth is that I don't trust anyone. I know I have high standards for myself and people drop the ball, are lazy, don't respect your time. I knew right away that u would handle this and that I could trust you. I keep telling you. lol. Imagine if we lived in a world with more people like you. I really only care about marrying (erase real name). Idk how I got so lucky. But I am also a perfectionist so I can't plan things without going overboard. It's horrible. Enjoy your day. You are really the best Kristin. Thank you! Have a beautiful day in this rain Rachel read more

We worked with Erica and she was so on top of everything! She is patient and so experienced. I can be a bit of a control freak and probably a but frustrating for some planners, but she took that in stride and worked really well with me. She is well known within the community and has great recommendations! I hired her for a day of/month of + design/decor. She helped me execute my color scheme in regards to linens and rentals! I already knew I was going to be making my own signs/decor and did my invites off minted, but she helped with all of the other things regarding design! She also helped put my decor and signs up where they would fit best. And on the day of, despite some minor timing issues that were outside of our control, Erica made sure things ran smoothly! Overall, I definitely recommend working with Erica! read more

If you are wondering if you should use a wedding planner, it means you definitely should! As mother of the bride we thought we were on a good track doing our own planning (I'm a project manager by profession, just another project right?) but 4 months into it we still had a ton of details to work out and two busy jobs of our own. Bringing on Erica Catter (which means you get a dedicated planner but really an experienced team of planners and vendors working on your behalf) allowed us to stop guessing and googling, enjoy the process and feel comfortable that everything was on track. Erica is thoughtful, creative, fun to work with, and a bit of a miracle worker! She found awesome vendors that were booked but somehow fit us in, our day of went off without a hitch (at least we never saw any, thank you Erica for that), our guests were so complimentary of the beautiful event, and we have great memories forever. If I were to make one change it would be to have brought her in even earlier! read more

Stephanie Garcia from Kristin Catter Events was our month-of wedding coordinator. She and her two assistants were AMAZING. I was an out-of-state bride, so Kristin and Stephanie got on facetime with me for a walkthrough of my venue a few weeks out. They asked very specific questions and kept thorough notes. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Stephanie was incredibly responsive. I sent her a few detailed emails with pictures of how I'd like things to be placed, and she and the assistants pulled it off flawlessly. It was better than I ever could have done myself. Stephanie totally had our backs, and I fully trusted her and her team. It was an immense relief to have them on the day of the wedding. I 100% recommend working with them! read more

I couldn't be happier I chose Kristin Catter Events for my wedding coordination. Erica Catter was my planner and she was AMAZING. She was always available for a call/text to discuss my endless questions and provided a ton of guidance whenever I was uncertain. I highly recommend choosing them to take care of your big day! read more

Kristin Catter was one of the key reasons our wedding went so perfectly. She proves time and time again that there is a reason she is literally THE BEST. Her & her company are incredibly professional and have wedding planning down to an art form. She helped me plan a dream wedding while I was 1000 miles away during a pandemic as a healthcare worker spending most of my days in a hospital. She was incredibly respectful of our concerns and covid protocols/plans, and made sure that no matter what our event went flawlessly. She has an unmatched work ethic & drive. She has strong working relationships with *so* many people in Austin & in Texas, I didn't speak to a single vendor/bakery/florist that didn't immediately know her by name and had only amazing things to say about her. She gets things done, and keeps you organized so you can plan a wedding and also focus on whatever else life is throwing at you. My husband at first thought we didn't need a wedding planner, and every month planning our wedding he repeatedly said "Oh thank God we have Kristin helping with this, there's no way we could do this without her". I without hesitation recommend her highly for any event - wedding, reception, party, anything. She & her team are out of this world. read more

Whatever you think you're looking for in a wedding coordinator or planner- Kristin is it. I met with several wedding planners that had a lot of fluff in their packages and charged a lot of money for 'services' that would have been easily accomplished with minimal effort or limited the support to '3 phone calls and emails the month of the wedding.' Kristen was different- she approached you as a person and met me where I was in the process. I was able to call, email, or text her when I was in a jam or anxious about something but because we would meet on a regular basis to touch base, this was kept to a minimum. She also spoke with my highly involved parents on the phone many times. She told me what I needed to do and kept me on track and on time. Also, my wedding day was perfect and fun and stress free and its because Kristin is a pro and now a friend of the family. read more

I was connected to Erica through my college buddy, who told me his wife was a coordinator (Thanks Sam!). I honestly never wanted to plan a wedding, this task was a dream for my mom but not for myself. My mom and I decided our lives were busy plus we had no idea where to start for planning a wedding. Hiring Erica was the best decision ever! She connected us with all vendors (and they were all absolutely amazing!). We got married at Camp Lucy- Sacred Oaks, and pretty much all the vendors had worked with Kristin Catter Events so were very familiar with the venue (and you could tell the day of wedding - everything ran so smoothly!). I absolutely loved that Erica would email us when the next task should be done, causing me to do almost zero research and helped me focus on more detailed items that were important to me. I also was a bit indifferent with details like linens and things as I'm not a creative person at all. I created a Pinterest vision board with the vibe I was going for and the color scheme and boom - Erica made it all come alive. Most decisions, I would look at Erica and she would tell the vendors what my vision was! The day of our wedding, everything was perfectly timed and I felt like a celebrity with Erica running things behind the scenes. It was a dream day that I will never forget, thanks to Erica! I highly recommend hiring Kristin Catter Events if you are like me and are organized but not necessarily wanting to be consumed with planning your wedding from start to finish. read more

Kristin is a great resource to have for your wedding - big or small! She is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and super helpful. I would highly, highly recommend her! Wedding Planning: Kristin was very helpful in the wedding planning process. She gave us a realistic, helpful timeline at the beginning of our planning that was customized for our specific needs. She did a good job of checking in and ensuring we were on track with tasks and the budget, particularly as we got down to the wire. Vendors and Contacts: Kristin was so helpful in finding and providing recommendations for good vendors. She has strong relationships with good vendors and worked to get us better deals on multiple occasions. She helped tremendously in figuring out how to get the most value for our floral selections and helping us get our stationary just right. I really appreciated that she went to all of my dress fittings with me (my family is out of state). Kristin really excelled at in all our meetings, she was professional but firm. Day Of: Kristin is excellent at running the "day of" schedule. She was polite but firm with our wedding guests and party (which was needed and appreciated) and everything went off with out a hitch. Everyone told me that something would go wrong at our wedding, but nothing did. I can't stress enough how well she did on the day of the wedding. Even after juggling a million wedding tasks, she went out of her way to leave us a slice of our wedding cake, a little thank you note and she even sprinkled rose pedals around our suite for the night of the wedding. The personal touches made our day even more special. Her assistant Lindsey was also great. Overall: I am so happy we used KCE; I would recommend her to anyone. Kristin was awesome, and I don't know how we could have done it without her. Thank you! read more

Kristin is simply the best! She made the planning process as stress free as possible and made the wedding day run smoothly. Whenever I couldn't make a decision, she was there to make that decision because she really understood me and what we were wanting our wedding to be like. We received so many compliments, and that is all because of Kristin!! read more

Hiring Kristin as our month-of coordinator was truly the best decision I made since saying yes when my now-husband proposed. From our initial email conversations, she was extremely quick to respond, thoroughly informative and helpful. At venue walkthrough/face to face meeting, she totally streamlined my frazzled planning process and gave me miraculous peace of mind. She knew exactly how to take care of every detail to prepare for the biggest day of our lives! On the day of the wedding, she was relaxed but got the job done flawlessly- graciously firm in managing everything to go so perfectly! Kristin was literally the best coordinator that I could've ever dreamed up. She was SO helpful, organized and detail-oriented (but always had such a wise, logical grasp of the big picture and true meaning of the day) kind, friendly, laidback (but serious when necessary) and just FUN... take it from me, you'd do yourself a huge disservice not to hire her for your wedding... save yourself and your family from worrying about all the things she can handle with ease. She's the best! Thank you Kristin!!! read more

KRISTIN IS AMAZING! She went above and beyond on every detail of our BIG day! I liked to think I was a "laidback bride," but there were many things that I wouldn't have been able to just "be chill" about if it weren't for Kristin and her sister/assistant, Erica. She told me that when something does not go as planned on the big day, (because something will,) that I wouldn't even know about. She was right! She ran errands FOR ME on the big day, helped me find an amamzing cake ball bakery, communicated with all of my vendors for me, and did much more than I expected her to. Kristin and Erica are both amazing woman and I think every bride should reach out to them for the smallest or largest wedding planning needs. :) read more

Kristin and her team were great! We used the month of coordinator service. Kristin was great at communicating with us whenever we needed and worked really well with our vendors. The month of the wedding, we didn't have to worry about reaching out to anyone but Kristin, as she took care of everything with all of our vendors. She even helped with specific requests we had for the day of the wedding. She, along with her team, had great control of everything and made sure we got what we dreamed of. :) Funny thing - she was the one vendor I didn't read a single review for. Somebody recommended her to us so we decided to meet her. Right after meeting her, my husband and I knew we had to go with her, she was exactly who we were looking for! read more

Like many couples, we had to push our wedding back a year due to COVID. Kristin was booked for our new date but her sister Erica was thankfully available. Meeting with Erica a month out from the wedding made us feel so much better about everything. She clearly knew the venue well, had great insights and recommendations on layout and timeline and how to ensure everything worked out smoothly the day of. One of our shuttles for our hotel guests completely cancelled 3 days before our wedding, and Erica jumped into action to call around and luckily was able to find replacements. The day of, she handled everything with our vendors, including dealing with one that wasn't so great. She and her assistant made sure our tables looked beautiful, and all of our alcohol and personal items made it on our shuttles back to the hotel, we truly didn't have to worry about anything the day of. Would highly recommend this team for your wedding, you will not regret it! read more

Kristin Catter is THE BEST. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and we could not have done it without Kristin. She was so patient and helpful throughout our entire planning process. Her advice and expertise when it came to hiring other vendors and planning every detail was priceless. We received so many compliments on how beautiful all of the details were and how everything ran so smoothly. A few weeks before the wedding, we had a few hiccups come up with family and Kristin was there to help us every step of the way and remind us that the wedding was all about us and our love for each other. She went above and beyond what I would have expected from any wedding planner. She truly cares about her clients and is so passionate about her work. We had the wedding of our dreams and all the credit goes to her! We would choose Kristin 1,000 times over again. If you are searching for a planner, just save yourself some time and stop here. Go with Kristin. I promise you won't regret it. read more

Kristin was wonderful! It was so nice to have someone the day of the event to help coordinate every little detail! This is not an easy job but she handled everything with a smile on her face. All the vendors we used were great. It was truly a magical day! read more

This review is for Erica Katter. I had initially sought Kristin (who was very responsive to my first inquiry, and extremely helpful and reassuring before I even engaged her, and I'm very grateful for that!), however, she was unavailable for my wedding and recommended her sister Erica instead. Kristin assured me that I would receive the same level of competence and service for my wedding, but unfortunately that was not the case. Erica was disorganized and seemed to rush through the details without really listening to my concerns - I should have taken her aside to voice my concerns on the night of the rehearsal when she staged my very small and uncomplicated wedding party without any direction or forethought. On the day of the wedding, we took photos before the ceremony (as was planned), and because she did not summon the photographers after being asked repeatedly (I eventually asked the photographers myself to come to the space we were taking photos) my photographers had to take all of our family photos within 20 minutes before the ceremony started. In addition to Erica, I paid for an assistant (as requested by Kristin), and there was also an assistant provided by the venue, so they were not lacking in manpower. Thankfully, my awesome photographers were able to capture some really great photos in the limited time available. When it was time for the ceremony, Erica completely mis-timed the staging. "Here comes the Bride" already started several minutes before I ran to the ceremony room, which was extremely awkward (there were windows in the doors to the ceremony room, so the guests had already risen and turned toward the doors and could see me running). Several guests joked that they thought I had gotten cold feet. I discussed this with both Erica and Kristin a couple of days after the wedding - they were very professional about reaching out to me to discuss my concerns. However, I was disappointed that they tried to throw the DJ under the bus for the staging issue; I was uncomfortable assigning blame to him and insisted that he be present for the discussion. Kristen and Erica agreed, and once we all got on the phone, it became clear that the staging issue was entirely attributable to the planner, Erica. Pros: Erica was extremely sweet and understanding about helping me with my dress and veil as I did not want my bridal party or family in my room while getting ready (I had recently lost my Mother and knew I would get emotional around friends and family). She also quickly adjusted the timing of our exit when we decided end the reception a little earlier than planned. At the end of the day, I married the man of my dreams in front of all of the people we love on what became the happiest day of my life - I just wish I had engaged a more experienced and competent planner. read more

Kristin Catter, her sister Erica, and the rest of her team is a force to be reckoned with in the wedding and events industry. There is just no one better out there right now. Kristin went above and beyond in every way to help take the burden and stress of wedding planning off my shoulders. From floral consultations to catering tastings to cake tastings to dress fittings, she literally went with us to almost every single meeting. Kristin did everything she could to envision my wedding day dreams and then make them come to life. She made sure to make the budget apart of our regular conversations to ensure that we could stay within our goal budget and make educated decisions accordingly. Kristin is extremely organized, professional, and on top of every single detail. She has incredible report with a wide variety of vendors and works hand-in-hand with them to make every detail important. I had zero worries on the day of because I completely trusted Kristin and had faith that with her direction, everything would go off without a hitch. Aside from the chillier temperatures than expected, every other item, person, vendor, moment was exactly where, when, and how it should be. Our wedding day was perfect and I owe that fact to the talent, time, and effort that Kristin put in. She is a master class wedding planner. I would recommend her to anyone for any wedding or any event. Kristin Catter Events will not disappoint you, I promise. read more
