Kiss the Bride is a MUST!!!
Planning a destination is not easy, unless you hire Kristi and her incredible team!
Every single detail was tended to, she connected us to all the best vendors, was quick to respond to any questions, resolved any issues, and was an absolutely joy to work with.
Our family is SO thankful for guidance, knowledge, and professionalism of Kiss the Bride!
Thank y’all for making Kyle and Bree’s wedding day everything they dreamed of……and more!

Kristi planned my fairytale wedding in Watercolor in October that I still dream about to this day! I kept hearing about how she was a top wedding planner and right when I heard her voice on the phone I knew she would be a perfect fot for me. She is so bubbly, sweet and uplifting. I just wanted to hug her over the phone. She made me feel so comfortable and stress free with the entire wedding planning process and made it FUN! She understood my vision and brought it to life. She picked a strong vendor team that I absolutely loved. I knew if it rained or anything unplanned popped up, it would all be

If you're getting married on 30A, Kiss the Bride is the WAY TO GO! When planning our Seaside wedding from the comfort of our home in Indiana, we knew we needed someone who could take care of all the details leading up to the big day while we were hundreds of miles away. From the moment we met Kristi, we just knew we were in amazing hands. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, listened to all my crazy aspirations, and executed flawlessly. Due to numerous postponed Covid weddings, KTB had multiple weddings each weekend leading up to ours, yet she never skipped a beat. The planning process

If you are getting married in the Destin/30A area I highly recommend using Kristi for your planner! She is the best around! She was a tremendous help throughout the year-long process planning for my June wedding at Watercolor. I live in a different state so her relationships with the venues and vendors on 30A was so essential! She handled everything but always took my suggestions and concerns into account. I cannot thank her enough for making our wedding such a breeze!

Kristi and her team at Kiss the Bride assisted me in planning my destination wedding. So many logistic in planning could have been so overwhelming for me as the bride- But Kristi said “I’ve got it, trust me” and she DID! Every detail paid attention and my vision for our day was actually better than I could have dreamed. When we think back on our special day, there is not a thing we would change- we have no “I wish...” it was perfect and it was because of the Kiss the Bride team!

Kristi is an absolute rockstar & will make your day as seamless as possible. When you first meet with Kristi, you know that she absolutely loves what she does. She is passionate about working with brides & creating a lifetime of memories. I am so very grateful that we were able to work with Kristi & her team throughout the process and could not have done it without her. She has the best spirit and energy, which is most definitely needed on any wedding day. Best choice we could have made in an event planner & blessed to call her a friend.

The most perfect day of our lives! My family hired Kristi to help us plan my wedding because my (now) husband and I lived in Florida, and the rest of our family was all over the country. The very first conversation I had with her, we clicked. I knew this was the girl I NEEDED for my wedding. She rocked getting me set up with the absolute best vendors I could ever imagine, the best location, the best of everything.
We had never planned to see a pandemic in our lifetime, but it hit and it hit us hard. Our original wedding date was May 2, 2020, and once things started closing we thought we were sunk

Kristi was a breath of fresh air from the moment we called and debated getting a wedding planner with her. She answered every call or text and always made time for us. We loved all of our vendors that she brought in.
We appreciated her honesty with us and that she would think creatively when we said something was out of budget or uncontrollable changes occurred.
Our wedding day was stress free for us and our families and truly embodied us. Kristi cares and loves her brides - she sat on the ground and bustled my dress for at least 10 minutes while sand was completely covering her and continuously
