Tzahhia was incredible! She helped my mom and I plan every detail, and was so organized. She had great ideas, and was so personable and fun to work with. My wedding day was perfect, and I didnt worry at all, because Tzahhia and her team were there. Id highly recommend using Keestone events!
Words can’t describe how thankful we are with our choice in Sarah Kee and Keestone Events to help us create and plan our dream wedding. She went above and beyond our wildest expectations and delivered a most amazing event all weekend long!!!From the beginning, we knew we wanted someone who was highly organized and had a vision to help us create the intimate, fantasy destination wedding we had long hoped for. We met with five wedding and event planners who all shared their stories and initial visions for our wedding. It wasn’t long after that we landed on Sarah and Keestone Events. Our initial meeting with her set the tone for what would turn out to be the greatest event of our lives.They say organization plays a big part in wedding planning and within minutes of signing our contract, our minds were put at ease as Sarah began displaying her “KonMari” style skills. We knew that planning a destination wedding would be difficult, especially not knowing where we would end up. Sarah graciously presented many options on cities and event venues. She provided the most detailed proposals on each city of interest, hotels and resorts, vendors, and even added cities she thought would be able to capture the essence of our fantasy. In the end, the decision was made easy; we would create a true fairytale wedding at The Cape a Thompson Hotel in Cabos San Lucas Mexico. From this point forward, her skills and organization would prove to be consistent and forward thinking; we continued through the process knowing we made the best decision.Sarah demonstrated her unique ability to execute our vision to a tee. We had so many wants and desires to make our storybook wedding come to life which created unique challenges along the way. Needless to say, Sarah continued to shine and as each decision or challenge was overcome, our minds were put at ease and we knew it would all turn out beautiful. Our wedding weekend was scheduled from Thursday to Sunday and as each event passed, all of the dreamy images and desires we imagined came to reality in spectacular fashion!!!Sarah also proved her unique ability to gain a leadership role over our vendors. She successfully proved this throughout the process and gave the relief we needed to handle all the issues and overcome any challenges. Even after our event, Sarah mediated a tense situation with one of our vendors and navigated us to a more than expected resolution. It speaks volumes about her character that after all the money was paid and the event had passed, she provided finality to a difficult situation!!!If you are planning or thinking of planning a major event or wedding, I would highly recommend Sarah Kee and Keestone Events. We are forever thankful to her and her staff for providing us with our dream wedding which surpassed our wildest expectations!! If you would like more details on our wonderful experience, we are available by private message to share more on how Sarah cemented a place in our lives both personally and professionally.
Sarah Kee had my back -- I would recommend her to anyone for wedding planning, therapy, guide, creative direction, vent sessions, friend, wedding day coordinator, connections, references, etc!I was a very anxious bride-- feeling like I was always missing something or not doing enough, and as someone that got married in her family first, Sarah was able to really have my back and make sure I was on top of everything. Constant check-ins, transparent communication, always willing to help take something off my plate, etc - she was an excellent wedding planner through and through.I can rave about her all day long, but to sum it up, if youre a bride that knows or doesnt really know how shed like her wedding to look, Sarah can help with it ALL, and make it come to life without you even noticing if you had a crazy uncle in the background causing issues. Love her!
Wow! Reading some of the reviews on Sarah, I can see that my impression is not unique at all. Like many others, Sarah was the first and only planner we met with and instantly we knew she was the one :). The pictures of the weddings she had already executed were the step in the door and actually meeting her shut it behind us and locked it. Like many others have said, Sarah brought to life exactly what was promised and envisioned. Based off of Sarahs recommendations, we put together the dream team of vendors. She got us a band that had everyone speechless, literally. And once people composed themselves, I was slammed with questions on who they are and where I found them. It was all Sarah! And she got them for us for half off!!! The best wedding band I have ever seen! Any time anyone asks me about an idea or where I found something, I would just say Sarah. It got to the point where everyone knew who Sarah was at the wedding. She was the MVP of the show. Honestly, I dont trust my decisions, leaning towards fleeting trends a lot of the time so I wanted someone to tell me what would be timeless. My entire wedding was Sarahs vision, I had just picked the one I liked best. So many people approached me about it being the best wedding they have ever been to, and I could tell they meant it because it was the best one I have ever been too as well LOL. It was also a COVID reschedule and she took on the entire lift and shift. From finding a new date to coordinating with all the vendors, she did it all. Dont even meet with her, just sign her on. It will be the best decision you ever make. Its funny because she said I was super easy going, but in truth I am not usually like that. I am a bit of a control freak, so that should tell you that you are in the right hands. And Sarah, you are probably thinking that last sentence is BS, but just ask John. LOL. We love you girl! You are forever part of our lives and memories. The only negative I got from her service is that she wont be in our lives as much anymore :). Miss you already!
I felt like I was in great hands from the very beginning at our very first zoom meeting with Kristin! My mom and I continue talking about how stress-free the wedding day was because of Kristin and her team. I look back on the wedding planning after she came on board as our month of planner, and it really became a much more enjoyable process for us. She had excellent ideas, vendor suggestions, and was completely on top of every detail, including details I would have never thought about. Her spreadsheets were extremely organized, and it was great to have a to-do list for me to tackle weekly as we got closer to the wedding. She also did a great job at keeping my husband and Is priorities in mind when it came to our wedding, and it truly turned perfectly. I had so much more fun on my wedding day than I ever dreamed possible!
I am so glad we chose Keestone Events as our wedding planners! Stephanie was so wonderful to work with - we had to move our wedding date twice due to COVID-19 and Stephanie was a constant source of help and support throughout the crazy wedding planning process. She is very organized (a spreadsheet for everything!) and so friendly and easy to work with. We finally got our dream wedding day and Stephanie was a huge part of making that happen for us! :)
Our daughter got married last weekend and it was a beautiful, stress-free, smooth-running event thanks to Stephanie Roper at Keystone events. I am the mother-of-the-bride and as a former catering manager I enjoy planning every detail of any special event! However, as the mother-of-the-bride I also wanted to enjoy every minute of the big weekend, and not have to be checking on everything and everyone. Believe me, Stephanie was THE FIRST person I reached out to after my daughter got engaged. Stephanie had orchestrated a flawless wedding and reception for our older daughter almost five years ago and I knew I wanted (no, needed) her to be there again! Thank goodness she was available. Stephanie is kind, calm, efficient and a great communicator--with the wedding party and the vendors. She made sure that everything was up to our expectations and fixed anything that wasnt. In fact, she probably made anything she touched better than the original plan! I was able to enjoy everything and had no worries. I cant believe she and her team could be in so many places at once! One of the best gifts she gave us was the ability to just leave the venue at the end of the grand exit and go back to the hotel with all our family and out-of-town friends, to continue the celebration. She and her team packed up all the items that we had delivered to the reception venue the week prior. She literally drove our car from the hotel to the venue, loaded it, and got it back into the valet lot--ready for our morning departure from the hotel! Finally, I was very touched that even in the midst of all the details of the day, it was the bride and groom that came first in her thoughts. She always wanted them to have exactly what they wanted and needed at every moment of the weekend, and she and her team made everything they dreamed of come true. Thank you Stephanie and thank you Keystone Events!
I dont even know where to start. Kelly, Sarah, and the whole Keestone Events team are the dream team. They are truly genuine people who want to make your day the best day ever. They take the time to get to know you, whats important to you, what you do/dont like and deliver that plus more. Kelly was so organized, kept me on track, and eased my stress. I could reach out to her about anything and she was there for me every step of the way. She kept in communication with all of our other vendors as well once we were getting closer to make sure everyone was arriving and setting up in time. Every detail and every minute of our wedding was PERFECT because of Kelly. Even when things that were changing the day before/day of, she was go-with-the-flow and made everything work. We also had two Keestone assistants on the day of our wedding who were SO kind. They bustled my dress and made sure myself and my husband were taken care of at all times. I couldnt have asked for a better wedding planner. I cant rave enough about them!!
From my first meeting with Sarah and Tzahhia, I just knew that I would I be in great hands!! They were very welcoming and constantly re-assured me that they would do everything they could to ensure my special day went as smooth as possible! Although, I ended up having to postpone my wedding until this year, Tzahhia made sure to stay in communication with me over the last year in a half. I chose the month of coordination package; however, she was always available to help me anytime I needed her throughout the wedding planning process.I absolutely loved the fact that Tzahhia was very organized, innovative, and paid great attention to every single detail. I also, appreciated how Tzahhia took notes every time we met and was able to give great feedback while asking all the right questions to ensure all areas of the wedding planning process were covered. She frequently communicated with all my vendors and always kept me in the loop. She was quick to handle any vendor inquiries and review over the vendor contracts to ensure everyone was adhering to their part. This really did place my mind at ease throughout the wedding planning process.Furthermore, Tzahhia never hesitated to help me with last minute things that came up and always offered words of encouragement especially as my stress levels increased closer to the wedding day which I really appreciated.Tzahhia and her assistants on my wedding day were awesome! She was so hands on with everything. From helping me with last minute adjustments to my wedding dress to getting special items to other members of the wedding party so I wouldnt be seen and more! Even when we ran a little off schedule, she was able to act quickly and make any small changes necessary to keep the day moving. I just don’t know what I would have done without her! Just WOW!!!My experience with Keestone Events has truly been amazing!! Thank you ! Thank you!!
We had the best experience with Tzahhia and the Keestone team for our wedding. Her design aesthetic is what initially drew me to her and then realized her organization, encouragement and experience made the process a breeze! We had the full planning package and it was worth every penny. And in true Texas fashion the weather did not cooperate during set up on our wedding day. Not to fear, Tzahhia already had contingency plans in place so our special day went out without a hitch. I highly recommend Keestone for your special event!
I can honestly say that hiring Keestone Events to help plan my wedding was the best decision I made during my planning process! Stephanie was absolutely amazing to work with! She was organized, attentive, and always reassuring when I needed it. Stephanie listened and helped make my vision for my wedding come to life. I could always rely on Stephanie to answer all of my questions with guidance and patience. She took all of the my stresses away so I could actually focus on what was important, marry the love of my life. If I could do it all over again I would hire Keestone events over and over again
I don’t even know where to begin. Stephanie went above and beyond as a planner. We got month of planning services and from day 1 I felt like my stress of wedding planning reduced significantly. She made the final month of planning go so smoothly and stress free. The wedding day went so flawlessly and everyone was raving about how great it was. Wouldn’t have been possible without Keestone and Stephanie!
All I can say about Sarah is wow! From first meeting, I could tell that we were in excellent hands with Keestone Events. Sarah is so organized, creative, and detail oriented. She is an absolute professional and I felt so confident that if we chose her as our planner, not a single detail would be overlooked. She is open to any and all ideas we bring to the table, even the unconventional ones. She has the flexibility and creativity to help you create a day that feels totally true to who you are. On top of that, she is incredibly kind, funny, and easy to get along with. Shes the type of person you want to stay friends with long after your wedding day is over.So I was already amazed by Sarah, and then COVID19 hit, derailing our plans for a spring 2020 wedding. Sarah pulled off rescheduling our wedding not once, but twice, without a hitch! She was so responsive during this crazy time and put in far more work beyond what our contract said, all while never once complaining or letting on to how hard this time must be for her as well. She took a nightmare situation and made me feel totally at ease. Im absolutely certain that when our special day finally comes, it will be perfect, all thanks to Sarah!If you want a total pro, who can tackle high stress situations like its nothing, Sarah is 100% your girl.
From the start when we first booked Sarah we felt that she truly wanted to understand our vision, and was creative and thorough in helping bring about the event we hoped for, as opposed to just planning a standard event. Whenever we asked questions we immediately got examples, photos, links - more than we could have expected, in response. Her network of contacts, experience, confidence and organization showed throughout the planning. The planning documents, checklists and questions she presented us with gave us confidence that nothing would be forgotten or left undone. We were closing in on the wedding date when the pandemic hit. Throughout the disruption of covid19 Sarah has been a calm and dependable source of reassurance as we plan, re-plan, and re-plan again. Each time we had to change plans she took care of things without ever admitting to be burdened herself by the toll of the pandemic. I am sure she was also reassuring our vendors on the other side of things, because she is just that thoughtful. She even sent gifts to let us know she was thinking of us during this challenging time, just another example of how she always goes way above and beyond for her clients! I cant tell you how calm we feel knowing that Sarah has things under control. I am confident that once this wedding is allowed to take place it will be everything we hoped for because of her thorough and creative nature. I cant recommend her highly enough.
Oh boy, where do I even begin! Working with Keestone Events has been the absolute best part of my entire wedding! Our planner, Sarah Kee, went above and beyond and exceeded every expectation we had for a planner. She is so incredibly organized and easy to work with that by the time the wedding was a month out we found ourselves kicking back and thinking “that’s it?!”Sarah laid out a beautiful timeline for us from month to month of things to accomplish, down to the hourly timeline of the wedding. She helped show us color schemes we never even thought of and organized all the prices/pros/cons/menus of each venue. She organizing your budget sheets, how much you’ve spent and what’s left, she organizes amazing timelines with the videographers and photographers for the day of the event. Layouts, vendor pages, and everything under the sun she has it for you at the drop of a hat! We didn’t forget even one “little” thing at the wedding, not even pens for the guest book!! (Which i did forget but she made sure we were covered!!)We were finished planning so early in the process, that I felt like I could actually enjoy my engagement! Sarah allowed us to be as involved or as hands off as we wanted to be in this entire process. When I needed her opinion on a decision she would give it, but assure me that no matter what I decided on it would look great. She was ALWAYS there for me, she was so incredibly accessible during every point of the way.If you are unsure about using a planner, Keestone events allows you to come in for a consultation where your coordinator will show you exactly how they can help you with your special day, while respecting your budget! But believe me, you will want Keestone Events to plan your wedding!I’m sure a million things went sideways on the big day, but I didn’t know about a single one of them as Sarah was so excellent with handling every situation that arose!I could not have pulled off a more beautiful wedding with out the help of Sarah and her team! Not only did I come out of this with what everyone claimed is the “best wedding they’ve ever been to”, I really feel like I’ve gained a friend in Sarah!I am begging you, at least go to a consultation with this woman- YOU WONT REGRET IT!
Sarah was incredible. She was the first wedding coordinator we contacted and I could tell after that first phone call that she had her act together--the most important quality for a wedding coordinator! We contracted her for month-of services but she went above and beyond to be present for our walkthrough with the venue and catering reps to ensure everything was complete. Inevitably, we had some last second needs (like a calligrapher) and she was able to secure us someone who could turn around our task quickly! And let me tell you about the rehearsal and day of ceremony! She was invaluable. Her staff that accompanied her on the big day also held Sarahs high bar for organization and impeccable execution. I would highly recommend Keestone Events. Our wedding was a roaring success and unforgettable largely due to Sarah and her staffs organization and execution. Many thanks! Im even considering using her to help me throw a surprise party in the future!
I am SO happy with our decision to go with Keestone Events as the month of planner. Kristin was absolutely amazing in every single aspect! I was very thorough in my search and talked to many wedding planners before finally deciding, but as soon as I talked to Kristin I knew it was the perfect match! I am very detailed oriented and sometimes have a hard time giving over control of little details. After our first conversation (and talking spreadsheets, details, and logistics) I had no doubt in my mind that I would be able to trust Kristin to execute my vision and ease my mind through the entire process. The weeks leading up to the wedding she was extremely helpful in keeping me on track and making sure nothing slipped through the cracks. For the day of the wedding all I can say is WOW. Between all the excitement, jitters, emotions, etc. the day flew by so quickly and thanks to Kristin I didnt have worry about a single thing besides marrying my best friend. Kristin and her team took care of everything and went above and beyond to make sure myself, my husband, and our families were always taken care of. The attention to detail, logistics, timeline, and design was absolutely incredible. I later found out my husband forgot his bow tie before the ceremony (classic guy move haha), but Kristin got it to him with no problem without me even knowing it was missing in the first place. Thank you Kristin for helping make our day unforgettable! We couldnt have imagined a more prefect day.
If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would!!! Keestone Events was everything thought I needed and more to plan our perfect wedding. Stephanie was absolutely amazing, she completely understood the look and feel of what I wanted. I felt like she was in my head, knew everything I wanted and she paid attention to every little detail to make sure it was perfect! Her team on the day of was polite, respectful, helpful and I truly felt like their goal was to make me and my husbands big day perfect! I cant recommend them highly enough!
Tzahhia from Keestone Events was a fantastic coordinator! Since hiring her in the wake of the pandemic, she was flexible, understanding and supportive as she helped with our wedding planning. Tzahhia gave plenty of suggestions and ideas that were helpful in our planning process. When we made the decision to downsize the wedding due to the rise in COVID cases, Tzahhia easily helped us make the transition in our plan for a scaled back wedding. The day of the wedding, she and her assistant were always present and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly.
I cannot say enough amazing things about Sarah and Keestone Events. I interviewed 4-5 planners in the DFW area before finding Sarah and can truly say that I made the BEST decision! Sarah is so thoughtful, kind, detail-oriented, and handles EVERYTHING you need her to. My husband and I are SO thankful that we had Sarah, she played such a large role on the best day of our entire lives. Our vision came to life and the entire planning process was seamless because of Sarah and her team. BEST DECISION in hiring Sarah!! You wont regret it!
As an event planner myself, I know what it takes to plan a flawless special event. I also know that Sarah Kee with Keestone Events is The. Best. and I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else with our big day. She planned a well-executed, stress-free day for me, my husband, our families and vendors. Sarah and her assistants were true professionals at all times and brought a calming presence to the day for everyone (especially me!). I can’t say enough good things about the Keestone team and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a planner for their big day!
My daughter picked Sarah to be the wedding planner for her recent wedding and I am so happy she did. Although I wasnt closely involved with every discussion and decision, having Sarah there for us was invaluable, and I think her help gave of us the wedding my daughter and her fiancé wanted. My daughter lives and works out of state, which made interviewing vendors more challenging. Sarah is so detail oriented and she got everyone to make decisions in a timely manner. She recommended several of the vendors we hired (I especially love the florist!)As the wedding date got closer, I appreciated how much we really depended on Sarah to handle large and small details that would have otherwise had me panicked at the last minute. I knew that any question I had for Sarah would be answered quickly. The wedding day flew by, but it was not stressful because Sarah was there for us and we were thrilled with our event.
We hired Sarah for our rehearsal dinner, she is the most amazing person. Every detail was handled by Sarah and her team. The dinner was beyond fantastic and went so smooth. If you want a beautiful stress free event Keestone Events are the people to call!
The event planners at Keestone Events are nothing less than AMAZING! About halfway through our wedding planning I decided that I needed help. Once securing vendors and trying to coordinate delivery schedules and times for the wedding day, I realized these were the last things I wanted to be thinking about/handling on the day of my wedding! I wanted to have fun and remember this as a happy one! I hired Keestone Events to assist with the overall wedding design and month-of-coordination. From the moment I met Sarah & Stephanie, I knew this was the best decision, the right one. These ladies captured every important aspect we envisioned for our wedding day, and surprising us with even more! Their suggestions and ideas were endless, making use of natural elements from our reception venue to creative, fun ideas for the guests. It was great knowing they were looking at ways to make your day exceptional, yet budget-friendly.Our wedding day was a hit! I cannot say more wonderful things about the ladies at Keestone Events.A special thank you to Sarah & Stephanie for taking our visions and making them a reality.To Stephanie, Jordan and Tzahhia: Thank You for making our wedding day so special, memorable and a success!!
WOW! Sarah and her team were nothing short of amazing. I did plan most my wedding myself and used Sarah as a coordinator and she flawlessly executed everything that I wanted! I could not even begin to imagine how my day would have gone without her. Sarah also gave me wonderful ideas throughout the planning process, and several of the ideas that she gave us ended up playing huge roles in how much fun our wedding was! Sarah is very organized and professional. Sarah contacted all of my vendors before the wedding and provided them with all the information they needed, even my vendors told me how wonderful she was! She kept the night so organized and that allowed me to just have fun and enjoy my wedding day, she would just find me, tell me where to be and when, and kept the day and night going. As with every wedding, there were a few minor things that happened but thanks to Sarah, I seriously did not even notice until I found out about them after the wedding. I could not imagine my wedding without Sarahs help. She was worth every penny!!!! If I could give Sarah more than 5 stars I would. Thank you Sarah for helping me have the wedding of my dreams!!
We recently did an event with Tzahhia and Keestone events and it literally couldnt have been a smoother more professional experience for the planning stages to the final note. The flow of the event and the information was seamless and everything was delivered with such a wonderful positive vibe. She even actually helped the band push out some cases at the end of the night in order to keep the client from possibly having any extra costs. Amazing. Thats a first!! Cant wait for the next event when we can all work together again!
I cannot say enough good things about this team! We worked with Tzahhia for 6 months leading up to our wedding. I am an incredibly organized and Type A person, so I was nervous I wouldnt find a planner I could really trust and lean on fully. Nope - Tzahhia was TOTALLY THAT PERSON. She made us feel so confident, sane and comfortable with each decision and piece of planning. She sent us checklists to complete each month and was always available for a quick text, call or FaceTime. Our wedding weekend was executed PERFECTLY thanks to Keestones Team!!!
Sarah & her team were AMAZING!!!! The second I met Sarah, I knew she was the one to make our wedding gorgeous so I booked her on the spot! I was right... she did make our wedding gorgeous and a night to remember! I had ZERO issues with Sarah or her team! Sarah is super easy to reach, comes with brilliant ideas, is budget conscious, and overall is just SUPER AMAZING at what she does! I booked her a year in advance, and she was right by my side throughout everything! I am so so so happy I hired her as a wedding planner! We couldnt have pulled this together without her! Sarah, you are talented at what you do! Thank you for EVERYTHING! Our wedding was perfect!!!!Brides, do not hesitate to book Sarah as your planner! You will want her on your side, helping you make decisions because after awhile, it will become daunting. Sarah helps steer you through everything, which is so important! You cannot put a price on your sanity :) Trust me, you will NOT regret booking her!
Sarah and her team are AMAZING! Sarah was one of 3 wedding planners I interviewed. My husband and myself chose Keestones full planning services. I spent about 1 year planning for my wedding with Sarah.There are several things I valued from Sarah and her team.Organization: From my initial meeting with her I could tell she was extremely organized and on task. She answers every email, phone call, text in a very timely manner within usually a few hours. She impressed my entire wedding party with her detailed schedule of the entire wedding weekend. Sometimes I procrastinated and she sent friendly reminders of my tasks and decisions I needed to make. She was able to round up my guests and family members to make things run on schedule.Availability: She makes herself available to you and it seem like she is your only client. It made us as a couple feel special that she takes care of us so well.Attention to details: She has an eye for detail. At random times she sees and finds better ideas for planning and decoration. I was truly impressed when we met our Hotel event manager and she was able to describe the number of tables, size of tables, table cloth sizes to the hotel team. She made a list of our needs to hotel for the wedding ceremony and reception and it went flawlessly. Half the battle I felt in planning a wedding was understanding what materials and supplies are needed. Sarah was very professional in this manner she understood what I wanted and was able to convey that to other vendors.Value:She was invaluable in us providing us ways to save our money on low priority areas of the wedding: i.e. menus and program cards. She followed up on reducing our linen count when our guest count was reduced due to cancellations. This allowed us to reduce our overall linen bill. She took care of some mishaps prior to the ceremony with finesse and I only found out later after the wedding.Overall my husband and both our families were highly impressed with Keestone Events and Sarah. I am so glad we chose her. She is worth every penny.
We are so thankful we hired Sarah to help us plan our wedding! When I first started the wedding planning process, I thought I could do everything on my own without a wedding planner. About 6 months into the process, I realized I was in over my head and felt very overwhelmed, so I reached out to Sarah. The flexibility of her packages and being able to add the services you need and subtract what you dont need was perfect for me since I had already booked many of the major vendors for the wedding. One of the most stressful things for me about the wedding planning process was the feeling of never knowing if I was forgetting to do something, and always feeling like I was behind schedule on booking vendors. Sarah took all that anxiety and worry away. I always felt at ease knowing that she was there overseeing the whole process, and that she wouldnt let anything slip between the cracks. She always reassured me that I was on the right track and made sure everything was coming together according to the timeline she set up at the beginning. I reached out to her with random questions many times in-between our scheduled meetings and she always replied promptly and was happy to help me with my questions. Another thing I found extremely helpful was that she would be the contact for my vendors and answer their questions for me. This helped me save SO much time as I was very busy with work and I was having a hard time keeping up with all the emails from vendors. On my wedding day, I didnt have to worry about anything and neither did my bridesmaids or my mother. We were all able to just relax and enjoy the day, Sarah took care of everything! There were a few issues with my dress bustle at a couple of points during the day that seemed time consuming (a couple of the threads had ripped off and had to be sewn back on), and she could tell I was stressing out a little about it, so she made sure to ease my mind by telling me we had plenty of extra time in the schedule to account for these kinds of things. She also brought my husband and me drinks while we were taking photos during cocktail hour so we wouldn’t have to miss out. Everything from start to finish went so smoothly, and we were so grateful to have her there to make our vision come to life!
Stephanie at Keestone Events was our planner extraordinaire. She was hyper-organized, resourceful, level-headed and consistently surpassed our expectations in every way.As an out-of-state bride, we appreciated Keestones willingness to design a custom planning package for us that met our needs. We were most keenly focused on hands-on support in the 6 weeks before the wedding and on the wedding day. We selected Keestone in large part because of their flexibility and commitment to customer-service. Stephanies professionalism, passion for her craft and responsiveness won us over.It was clear from the start that Stephanie was incredibly experienced, exceptionally well-organized, totally service-oriented and a skilled problem-solver! These were all vital attributes as we planned everything remotely and didnt meet in person until the week of the wedding.As the date approached Stephanie provided vital hands-on support and put together a comprehensive plan and tracked every item leading up to our big day so that nothing slipped through the cracks. She stuffed and delivered beautiful goodie bags, coordinated delivery logistics effortlessly with all our vendors, masterfully ran a ceremony rehearsal with a novice officiant (our friend was ordained for the occasion) as well as participants under 7 and over 80 and was prepared with every emergency supply you could ever need. Notably, as we had a small wedding party, Keestone also provided several additional on-site assistants to help Stephanie with set-up and execution on the big day. Stephanie managed this team with her usual combination of grace, calm, and efficiency.We are so grateful to Stephanie for making our day run so smoothly -- and we would recommend both Stephanie and Keestone Events without hesitation.
My wife and I recently got married in Frisco, TX (near Dallas) and Im happy to report that it was PERFECT. Im a realistic person and was expecting a bunch of little things (and perhaps a few bigger things) to go wrong but NOTHING went wrong. It was a perfect, unforgettable, night.Im 1000% sure it would not have been the case had Sarah not been there making sure everything went off without a hitch. From the very first phone call meeting up until our grand exit she was professional, kind, and dependable. She made everything easy. Painless. Perfect.She was helpful throughout and very experienced. One standout moment was during the ceremony rehearsal. Sarah was giving us advice and told us if any of the rings get dropped that no one should move and only the best man should go pick it up. I kind of smirked to myself and said that would never happen....I will never be so smug again. Our officiant dropped my ring during the actual ceremony, the room fell silent, and my heart dropped.BUT we were ready! Thanks to Sarah! My best man trotted down the steps, picked up the ring, everyone clapped, and it was a perfect wedding. This is just one example of her foresight and attention to detail but is one I could never forget.Our only regret is not having her sooner as we only heard about her about 2 months out. She took over our planning and made sure all of our vendors and all of the little details we wanted were executed with surgical precision. If we had her from the start we probably could have avoided TONS of stress and heartache.We could not recommend Sarah Kee and her team more. She will take care of issues that you didnt even realize were issues. Im sure she took care of a million things that even my wife and I are not aware of. Above all, you can tell she really cares about making it a perfect event for you.Thanks again Sarah!
I cannot say enough good things about Sarah and Keestone Events. Sarah has been completely honest with us (which I wanted) since the beginning to the end. When we first told her our budget, she told us in all honesty that it might be a little over our budget (which I had expected anyways). It was really great of her to be honest up front because for me, I would rather be told up front instead of getting a shock at the end. And being on a budget, she always gave us cheaper options that would still work with our wedding. She definitely helped us stay around our budget and we cannot thank her enough for that. We also wanted a wedding planner because of how busy my wifes work schedule is. Having someone like Sarah helping us with our wedding was so helpful and really helped us stay sane throughout the process. Sarah basically took care of everything. She would pick out options and all we would really need to do is to just choose out of the options she gave us. She is also very good at responding to emails/texts and she never gave the impression that we were bothering her (even if was later in the night). No matter the time, Sarah always would answer and respond to any questions. Sarah does everything well. There is nothing she cant do. We also went with Keestone Events for florals and stationery. I think they just started doing their own florals and stationery but we took a chance with them because we trust Sarah and believe in her abilities and creativity. We couldnt be happier as both the florals and stationery looked amazing and we were so happy we went with them. We also worked with 2 other planners at Keestone Events (Jordan and Tzahhia). And they were both amazing in their own rights. Both Jordan and Tzahhia were so helpful during the rehearsal and the day of the wedding. In the end, I would highly recommend Sarah for wedding planning. Without her, our wedding would not have turned out as great as it did. I am so grateful for Sarah and Keestone Events!
I cannot say enough about Sarah Kee! I started looking for event planners about 6 months in advance of my husbands 50th birthday and spoke with a few planners. After my initial call with Sarah, I knew she was the one. She was very professional, super organized and her rates were very reasonable for the level of service that you will receive. She was very up front about her fees and the services she would provide. We kept in touch weekly. She was prompt in replying back to emails within 24 hours if not sooner and would let me know if the reply would take longer due to her attending to another clients event which I appreciated. She always kept me cognizant of my set budget and kept me in line if I was moving towards doing too much. She was super at suggesting different ideas as I needed a lot of creative help to get things going. She helped to coordinate all of the vendors who were all excellent. Because my event was a surprise, I was pretty stressed at times trying to hide everything. Sarah was great at calming my nerves and ensuring me that all would be great. The event was this past weekend and it went without a hitch. We had a great time. My husband was totally surprised with the help of Sarahs assistant who pulled off her role perfectly! I would not hesitate to recommend Sarah and her team for your next event. If you want someone who is professional, organized, kind and creative, you cannot go wrong with Sarah! You will be well taken care of! Thank you so much Sarah for everything! Ill miss our weekly talks. We will certainly reach out again for our next event.
Long story short - my wedding vision and dream would NOT have been possible without Sarah Kee.With my husband and I in demanding careers, with 12+ hr days, and planning a wedding from out of town, I knew having a wedding planner would be essential.After interviewing several planners, I knew Sarah Kee was the best. Her calmness stood out the me the most. I,like most, was a frantic, stressed out Bride! Sarah instantly instilled in me the confidence where I knew she would take care of everything I needed. And throughout the process, she has consistently done so. She has been patient, translated my “inarticulate ideas” and “intangible ideas” into reality, and most importantly had the BEST group of vendors that became my dream team, who brought my vision to life.I truly believe that every bride deserves to have Sarah Kee grace their wedding process! She is the reason why the wedding of my dreams came true!
Sarah did an amazing job planning our wedding! We are not advance planners and I had almost zero vision of what I wanted our wedding to look like when we hired her. She did a really good job of asking the right questions and got me to give both her and myself an idea of what I was looking for, and the final result was PERFECT. I could never have done this on my own. Sarah was on top of everything with the vendors, and helped coordinate between them and my mother who lives on the other side of the country. I had been extremely busy with work and took forever to respond to her emails but she was so patient and everything got done with plenty of time left. The day of went smoothly and was a blast - my husband already asked if we could get married again :) and we had multiple discussions after the fact about how great Sarah was!
Keestone Events took the very scatterbrained vision I had for our wedding and created the most magical night ever! The entire year of planning they were a dream to work with and on the actual day of the wedding everything ran so smoothly and perfectly. We truly could not have had the wedding we wanted without them and we would highly recommend them to anyone!
Hiring Sarah was the best decision I made for my wedding. I thought I didnt need a planner because I am having a very intimate wedding, but Sarah proved me wrong! Sarah brought so many great ideas and selections to me and because of her I had the most beautiful wedding and most importantly a worry-free wedding. Thank you so much Sarah, xoxo :)
Sarah was my wedding coordinator and is now my sister-in-law! My now husband and I were getting married in Malaysia and were both clueless about weddings in general. Most weddings there are planned by the family, and wedding planners aren’t the norm. Sarah easily proved how much better life is when you have someone professional taking care of you that is on your side. She took care of logistics we hadn’t even thought of that made things all the more efficient. Case in point – the guest list. Just by alphabetizing the list and having copies for her assistants, guests were able to quickly find their spots instead of having a bottleneck that we often see at weddings. When certain vendors wanted to do things a specific way with decor, she stepped in and was able to envision a far better design that saved us money in the process. Often times we were both overwhelmed by what we had to do for the other vendors. After we copied her on the emails and passed the reins to her, she was quick and so thorough in responding to their needs. Despite this wedding being overseas, she coordinated every single detail and kept us informed every step of the way. Her Chinese background meant she was already familiar with the tea ceremony and other aspects of the culture which was another plus. Even though this was planning for family, her professionalism and poise were brought up by several relatives who had no idea what she did for a living before (haha!). Ultimately we were able to relax and really enjoy the day while she had to work. We appreciated her help so much. Thank you Sarah!
She’s a blessing to us. That’s what she is!Sarah is my husband’s friend from college and the first time he mentioned about Sarah, I immediately checked her wedding website and from then I knew straight away that I wanted her to be my wedding organizer. Loved and followed her work.Funny part is that I waited 3yrs for the proposal before I even told Alvin how much I wanted Sarah to organize the whole wedding. Bride and groom that lives in Dubai, wants to have a wedding in Bali and wedding planner is from Texas! Great plan! ☺Looking back 2 months after the wedding, I wouldn’t change anything. I get excited with the thoughts of that day. The sun and the rain, families and friends coming altogether, all the vendors who were involved and how everything fell into place. All the aspects of the wedding was carefully chosen and planned with so much excitement. Everyone was amazed!Planning the whole thing was a breeze, fun and stress free! All because of amazing Sarah. She has this planning pod that tracks all the bits and pieces of the wedding. I used this mainly for the budget. Although we were over budget, it was nice to know where the money is going. So helpful!To some, weather would have been an issue because it rained at some points of the wedding day. But for us, it was perfect! That day was perfect.. Every little decision we made, we had Sarah’s advice and insight. And we will forever be grateful.Sarah, you know we love you! Missing our meetings and chats.. Thank you so much and hope to see you soon..
I was an out-of-state bride planning a wedding from afar, and interviewed several vendors for a day-of/month-of coordinator. We were looking for a coordinator that could handle a fusion wedding of two cultures - Pakistani and American. We interviewed several vendors and were really looking for the right fit. We had a great first chat with Sarah Kee, the owner of the company, and then Stephanie Brouillette. What stood out to me about Stephanie was how calm and focused she was. I also appreciated that she had some experience with South Asian weddings, and extensive experience with events. Another coordinator I spoke to had great experience but was too intense and stressed me out a bit! I really appreciated Stephanies calm throughout everything.Our wedding had 11 vendors, some South Asian and some not. In addition, our venue did not provide anything besides tables and chairs, so there was quite a bit to coordinate. On top of that, our guest list was around 300, and we were having an outdoor ceremony. I had a lot of fun booking vendors along the planning process, but when it came to the logistics (day-of timeline, scheduling vendors arrivals, arranging vendor meals, developing the room layout for how the tables would be set up etc.) I was SO glad that wed booked Stephanie to take care of those details. It allowed me in the last couple months (which get crazy) to focus on other details such as tracking RSVPs, packing for our out-of-state wedding and our subsequent international honeymoon, and choosing songs for entrances/first dance/etc. Stephanie asked my preference if Id like to be ccd on the emails when she was taking over vendor communications, and I did. Im glad she did because then I could see all the work she was putting in. :) She did a great job and every time I saw an email fly by that I was ccd on, I was thankful that I wasnt having to figure out those details. Throughout the planning process, I appreciated having her as an honest sounding board. There were some things that were really tough to make a decision on since we were having a fusion wedding - and I didnt want to offend or confuse any guests from either culture. It was great to have Stephanies perspective when making some of those decisions.The day of our wedding, it was COLD (hello, Texas weather). It was somewhere in the 30s-40s Fahrenheit for our outdoor ceremony. We had a tent in case of rain or super hot weather, but no one expected it to be this cold in April in Texas! My mom and Stephanie found a vendor with heat lamps, and Stephanie and her assistants were wheeling those huge lamps around. She and my mom worked so well together, and I didnt even know the day-of until it was already taken care of. I appreciated that.She was available to talk on the phone and email when needed, and was usually several steps ahead of me and had already taken care of whatever I was going to ask her to.After the wedding, we received several compliments on how smooth and organized everything was. Others commented on how stress-free my mom appeared- and my mom replied that it was only possible because she was confident knowing we had great vendors and that Stephanie was running the show. We are still talking about how much fun we had at our wedding, and I really feel like myself, my groom, our bridal party, and our families both got to enjoy every minute because of Stephanie and her team! A huge THANK YOU to Stephanie, and her assistants - Emily and Britney.
Words can not describe how memorable and how perfect the wedding planning experiences have been with Sarah Kee and her team. She was incredible kind, sweet and patient. She and the team gave the bride and groom and our families the best day of our lives.
Keestone Events was such a wonderful group to work with during one of the most important days of my life. We had the pleasure of having Tzahhia lead our wedding planning, and she was nothing short of excellent. We did the 3 months out plan, and I cant begin to tell you how much stress was relieved thanks to Tzahhia. I do have to apologize that we constantly were changing things up, and even on our wedding day, we had some last minute changes to our timeline, but Tzahhia was very accommodating and on top of things. She also does some amazing calligraphy work on the side. So amazing that we had to hire her to make our seating chart, which she made by hand, and also our menus. Both were works of art.One thing I would really like to mention is about the end of our reception. Some of my husbands family members were supposed to stay behind and pack the wedding items (such as the linens that we rented) into their van, but I guess it slipped their mind. Tzahhia and her team stayed behind and helped pack up everything and tried to get as much items as possible into my car. For the items that wouldnt fit, Tzahhia personally delivered them to our hotel bellhop to hold in the luggage storage room. This really spoke to me about how much she cared about us and our wedding day, even when the night was already over. Thank you Keestone Events for helping us through such a crazy day/night!
Let me start with this - Ive joked a number of times with my now-husband that if the two of us dont work out, I intend to marry Sarah so she can plan out the rest of my life for me. Hahah.Sarah is incredibly detail oriented (if youre as into spread sheets as I am, youll fall head over heels in love with her like I did), thoughtful, and professional. She prodded us when we needed prodding, guided us with her wealth of experience and strong intuition, and was the glue that really pulled the wedding together. She knew all the right people in the industry, bargained hard for us when we felt things were overpriced or unreasonable, and thought of all the little details that we didnt think of... but were the little details that make our big day truly special.In every way possible, she went above and beyond. I dont even want to imagine what a disaster the wedding would have been without her, so all I can say is, Sarah is a KEE-per. Haha. But seriously, she is amazing. I never want to get married again (wow, that was so much more work than I imagined... and I also love my husband obviously...), but if I did, I would hire her.
I am so very thankful to have had Sarah and her team help with our corporate event. Keestone Events is professional, timely and helpful in every way. I would highly recommend anyone that needs assistance planning an event to hire Sarah.
When we know we have a wedding alongside Keestone, we know the whole wedding process will be smooth and beautiful. They are reliable, kind, and so good at what they do!

2022-03-22From the first phone call, my mom and I knew Keestone was going to be the best fit for what we wanted. Kelly and her team were incredible through out the process but especially during the last 4 weeks. Working with Kelly in the 6 months leading up to the wedding made it a seamless and stress free transition for me (the bride) during that last month. My parents and I didnt have to think about a single detail the day before and the day of the wedding. She also helped recommend vendors in the area based on what atmosphere we were looking for and our budget. Kelly and her team were great!

2022-02-06Make sure you come to the party.” These words were shared with me just as we began planning our daughter’s wedding. And with the guidance and tremendous support of Keestone Events, that’s exactly what we did. Our baby girl had the wedding of her dreams and we could not have imagined it without the incredible team of Keestone Events. So many countless details – from placing monogramed napkins in the bathroom – to having dancing shoes tucked discreetly beneath the bride’s chair – to the delivery of Great Grandma’s special meal. Everything was executed perfectly. As MOB, I gave nothing a second thought and simply enjoyed the day…every single minute. We even had perfect weather – and we’re pretty sure Keestone Events might even had a hand in that too. Job well done!

2022-06-06I got the full planning package with Sarah, and I am so happy I did. I didnt know much about weddings or the planning process before, but Sarah broke it all down into easy decisions spaced out over several months. She did a comprehensive venue search, which was honestly the part I was dreading the most because there are so many options and constraints --- but Sarahs spreadsheet laid out all the details for each one.I had told her I wanted a kind of east meets west vibe, and she not only found the perfect venue, but also found a great artist to make a custom backdrop for us, engaged lion dancers for the reception, and got us a bubble tea bar. I was picky with the reception menu and the cakes because I love food and wanted it to be perfect, but Sarah rolled with all my weird requests, and several guests ended up telling me that it was the best wedding food theyd ever had!On the actual day, Sarah was there bright and early to make sure everything was running smoothly. She was so prepared! My heels had rubbed a little raw spot on my ankle, but she just popped open her clipboard and pulled out a bandaid; later, she produced scissors and tape and extra hairpins --- whatever I needed, she had. The ceremony and reception setups were more lush and beautiful than I had imagined. I got so many compliments from the guests on how well-executed everything was, and it was all thanks to Sarah, Kelly, Hallie, and Natalie from Keestone! I couldnt recommend them more!

2021-05-03I cannot possibly say enough wonderful things about Keestone Events!! From the minute we started working with Sarah, everything exceeded our expectations of what a planner should be... she was on top of literally everything and made the whole planning experience (from meeting us to pick our flatware, to hopping on endless calls with me and my mom, who lives out of state) an absolute blast and took 100% of the stress out of everything. Not to mention she had the most incredible vendor recommendations and reputation throughout the industry and everyone LOVES working with Keestone Events. Starting with a vision board of our ideas, she helped us cultivate the look and feel of our dream wedding.Our wedding was originally scheduled for March 2020, and then two weeks out, it got moved to October. Within an afternoon of deciding to postpone, Sarah had seamlessly transferred literally everything over, and worked with all of our venders (whom she recommended, who were all FANTASTIC!) to make sure we were able to have everyone we wanted, even getting vendors to change/accommodate our new date. It was incredible! We had to postpone a second time to April, and again she replanned everything flawlessly for us. We even had the opportunity to work with another lead planner within Keestone, Stephanie, and got the DREAM TEAM with them both! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Stephanie, either. She didn’t miss a beat coming into a wedding we had been planning for almost 2 years at that point and learned everything about our wedding even better than my mom nor I had. We had about a million and one details, and she nailed every single one of them, both throughout the rest of the planning process and on wedding day. Not to mention she made the day stress free, fun, and just all around perfect.I can’t possibly say enough good things about Keestone Events and I could not imagine our wedding without this amazing and talented team – I am truly sad the planning process with these two women is over! I only wish we could do it all again!!!!

2021-08-20Sarah and Keestone Events were truly the best people to work with! We met with a few wedding planners, but after meeting Sarah, we knew we had found the best planner for us! From the beginning of the process Sarah listened carefully and thoughtfully to our vision and suggested ideas. Her guidance and patience made us feel confident and completely relaxed about our big day. There was no ask too small or big for Sarah, and she always had a plan to resolve any unexpected bumps in the road. When we postponed our wedding she handled everything and coordinated with all of our vendors which made that tough decision so much easier. She worked well with all of vendors and the whole day went off without a hitch. Our families commented on how kind and organized she was and they were so impressed with how smoothly everything went. The team she brought to help on the day of were supportive, professional, and fun to be around. I can’t recommend Sarah and Keestone Events enough—our wedding day would not have been as amazing as it was without her

2021-12-14Where do I even begin! I am so glad I made the decision months ago to pick Stephanie and Keestone Events as my wedding planner. When we first talked, the cost was making me hesitant and I wasnt sure I needed a whole month of support, but boy was I wrong. Knowing Stephanie had all the details handled really helped me to just enjoy the last few weeks vs calling vendors and working timelines etc. She also thought of things that I would have never thought of myself that really helped make the day special.The day of our wedding was amazing. Stephanie ensured a smooth timeline and really allowed my husband and I to just live in the moment. Stop looking now and hire Keestone Events!

2021-09-04Sarah and her team are amazing. I spoke with five different planners, and chose Sarah because she customizes services depending on what the bride wants, and was transparent - she walked me through her organization process step-by-step. Sarah went above and beyond as a planner when I had to postpone my wedding by 10 months. I didn’t have to worry at all about communicating with my vendors - she handled it all beautifully! She also did a wonderful job narrowing down vendors for me to choose from, and I loved every single one of them. I also had the opportunity to meet Tzahhia and Stephanie during my wedding weekend and they were on top of it! The execution of the rehearsal, getting-ready, ceremony, and reception was flawless thanks to Keestone Events. I would recommend them to anyone!

2021-11-10I was hesitant to use a wedding planner but I am SO SO GLAD I did. Stephanie Roper from Keestone Events made all my wedding dreams come true and more. She made me feel at ease throughout the whole planning process and even the day of the wedding. I had some hiccups in the day like any bride, but Stephanie had a way about fixing the problems without bothering me or worrying me. She not only is the best wedding planner/coordinator but she is also an amazing person who showed she cared about our day and us as a couple and that we werent just clients to her. We truly truly appreciate Keestone Events and Stephanie for being the best of the best!

2022-04-26Tzahhia was the best planner I could have asked for! I originally was drawn to Tzahhia because of her professionalism and ability to stay calm and collected during my brothers wedding (she was also their planner). As we worked together for my wedding, she made sure I had everything I wanted in a wedding, while also being conscious of the budget, which I really appreciated! She is incredibly organized; you will have excel spreadsheets on practically everything you need to know about your big day. She also went above and beyond, from the design board, to the flowers, to executing the wedding (to perfection!). If I requested something specific, she did everything she could to make sure it happened. My wedding was just that - everything I could have dreamed of! She has some incredible ideas and is very talented. She planned things I didnt even know about! I dont know what I would have done without her!!

2022-05-04Tzahhia was an absolute joy to work with. She helped plan our one-year wedding celebration after we were married during COVID. We hired her as our month of planner and to help with our design board. She managed to get my vision for the wedding perfectly despite my scattered thoughts, me being out of state, and COVID delays. Importantly, Tzahhia truly cares about her couples. I felt comfortable expressing my concerns and she was always there to lift me up throughout the process. It was sad to part ways with her because we thought of her as more than a planner but as a friend. Cant wait to find an excuse to work with her again.
