Kaitlyn... My gosh. I am ay a loss for words.  I am floating on a literal cloud after this weekend!!!!!

I can't event put into words how truly blessed we are to have had you with us this weekend.  There is not a single chance we could have pulled off this absolute mammoth of a party without you and your team.  I can't even believe how gorgeous it was to see the vision you helped us create come to life.  You managed myself and my family with such grace and brought so much calm to our chaos! I could never repay you for what you've done for us, I am just the luckiest girl on planet earth!

She is truly a wizard in making you feel at ease.  I was planning my CT wedding from Florida and Kaitlyn was incredibly attentive and supportive in putting together what I was envisioning for our wedding.  Now that our wedding is over and we no longer have a reason to incessantly text or call I am a little bit sad, she was a staple in my life and she became such a beautiful part of our wedding and life.

Kait has a way of making you feel like you're the only client she's working with.”
