"Words don’t do justice to Kelly and All Buttoned Up Events. She was the best investment we made in our wedding. Not only are her prices affordable; she actually saved us a ton of money over the long-term. Our wedding could not have gone more smoothly (and there were about a thousand moving pieces for the event). Kelly is the epitome of professionalism and I’d give her 10 stars.
Note to other grooms: You will come to appreciate Kelly as much as your bride-to-be will. She puts out fires before they even start. She’ll negotiate with vendors and easily drop your blood pressure a few points in the process. I’d hire this girl as a personal assistant if I could."-Nathan VanSweden (Groom)

"Kelly honestly created the perfect wedding day for me and my husband. She totally got the look and feeling of the day I was hoping for and went above and beyond what I could have done by myself. I had rented a venue that is bare bones (no tables/chairs, dishes, food, etc.) and she helped me make sure every detail, big and small, was coordinated. She helped ease my stress leading up to the wedding and handled my questions and concerns quickly and perfectly. I always felt on top of things which was such a gift. When the wedding came I couldn't help but feel she created a wedding meant for a magazine or Pinterest. I cannot say enough about Kelly! She is the best at what she does, keeps you on track, and goes above and beyond to give you a wedding catered to your style. I was able to get exactly what I wanted and more!"- Allison (Bride)

"Our wedding was more than an opportunity to express our love to one another— it was a chance to share it with our friends from around the world. However planning a wedding from 9000+ miles away with a 14 hour time difference [Australia] was not going to be easy. It was my moms wish that I allow her to interview a wedding planner. Not usually one to relinquish power I reluctantly said yes with one circumstance; that my mom relay the message that I have a very clear idea of the day that I won’t compromise. It took one hour at a coffee shop for my mom to call me and say it was love at first sight. She’d just met Kelly with All Buttoned Up Events and knew immediately she was the one. Within a day I’d received a beautiful email introducing herself to Ben & I. She said she’s aware of the difficult time difference but she’s literally ALWAYS available. And she was. No detail was left undiscussed. We emailed and Skyped multiple times a week for months. Her connections to vendors along with her time management and people management we’re what moved us smoothly towards the big day. She offered incredible advice— accepted our ideas— and did it all with a cool calm that was contagious. The day came quickly, and like all weddings we had a few unexpected elements to battle. First, it was record heat. Then, the power went out on the property, and finally our food and guest began to melt. Oblivious and kept comfortable, Ben and I remained unfazed through the madness. All while Kelly was behind the scenes tending to my over heated grandparents, running fans to guests, and storing food on ice. Ben, myself, and our guests never saw that panic. It was her quick responses and knowledge of what's priority that made our wedding everything we’d hope for and more. We have received feedback from guests saying it was the most beautiful wedding they’d been to. Its important to note that I’d missed cake testings, dress fittings with family, florist meetings, tent shopping and property walk throughs because of our unique situation. However, I trusted Kelly with all of these moments and she came through on each and every request. She was one of the best decisions we’d made— second only to saying “yes” to one another. I have and I will continue to recommend All Buttoned Up Events to friends. If I were to list her best attributes it would be too long to post but the top adjectives are: Patient, observant, hard-woking, detailed, kind, focused, enthusiastic, and relentless. We cannot thank you enough Kelly. You’ve given us a gift that will last a lifetime." -Love Ben&E (Bride and Groom)

"Tori and I can't say enough about Kelly and the team at All Buttoned Up. Throughout the entire experience the team remained cool as cucumbers, and brought a sense of calm to an otherwise chaotic/hectic weekend. Simply put, we couldn't have done this without them, Kelly is worth her weight in gold. It was a beautiful day. As a side note, it rained cats & dogs at our intimate little outdoor wedding. We quickly scrambled into a nearby barn just as dinner ended and the storm swooped in. Thankfully, within a half hour, the drinks were being poured and the music was back on. Every detail was taken care of on the fly, and completely removed any stress caused by the rain. Guests were happy, my wife was happy, and I was so lucky to have them there.We can't give this group a high enough rating." -Austin (Groom)

"Kelly pulled out all of the stops with Emily and Ben's wedding on August 15th. She had a lot of coordinating to do because Ben and Emily live in Australia. Emails, Skyping and phonecalls were the only way she could communicate with them. To be able to capture the essence of what they wanted and put it all together was a huge undertaking. Over thirty guests were from eleven different countries and all needed accomodations and transportation during the event. Kelly took care of all that too! Everyone had a wonderful time and felt they were part of the entire event from beginning to end. Kelly knew the right vendors and her creative and calm spirit put it all together. Thank you, Kelly, we have already referred you to another recently engaged bride to be! She will not be disappointed." -Colleen (Mother of Bride)

"I never thought I would be a person who would need a planner. However, I was working full time and was finishing up my degree. Time did not allow planning a wedding. My mother and I were at a point where we didn’t know what still needed to be done or where to start. I called Kelly frantic and upset. Even though I had all my vendors set; I desperately needed someone who could coordinate the last 6 months leading up to the big day. Kelly was welcoming and completely understanding of my situation. She offered a package of coordination that perfectly fit what I was looking for. She calmed all my fears and instilled a strong sense of confidence in her abilities and furthermore came through in ways that made the most beautiful experience. Kelly has a knack for decorating beautifully and on a budget. She will make sure you get a bang for your buck...Her fun upbeat personality will turn what could be a stressful situation into a fun one. She is flexible and has an emotional intelligent’ s that allows her to pick up exactly what you are asking for. The wedding turned out to be most magical and we wouldn’t have been able to do it without her. We are so appreciative of the advice she gave on how to make our day perfect. The way that she handled all of the details made us able to relax and enjoy the ceremony. I will recommend Kelly to all those interested in creating a memorable, tailored, loving and brilliant wedding" -Caitlin Gilroy (Bride)

"Kelly was a dream-come-true! I am very organized and was looking forward to wedding planning, but when my husband and I decided to have an outdoor ceremony and reception, I was worried I wouldn't be able to coordinate everything. I was apprehensive about hiring a wedding planner, because I've never known a bride that hired one. Kelly was exactly what I needed, and I will recommend a wedding coordinator to ANY bride planning an outdoor wedding. Kelly was so easy to contact all throughout the process, and kept me informed every step of the way. When the day arrived, I felt completely confident that all of the details were taken care of. Kelly was there from morning until night, taking care of set up to take down. Meanwhile, I was having a relaxing morning with my bridesmaids. I had no idea they had to completely change the ceremony location and scramble to come up with a guest book that I left at my house. Kelly was all smiles and efficiency, and everything was PERFECT. She listened to what I wanted, and had awesome recommendations for vendors to help me accomplish the day. She 1000% made the whole process much less stressful, and gave me the freedom to enjoy my wedding day without a worry about the details. I cannot recommend All Buttoned Up Events enough!"- Becky (bride)

"I’m an extremely organized person and never thought I would use a wedding planner. I can say without a doubt that Kelly and her team gave me the most amazing wedding, and it would not have been possible without her. I knew I wanted to work with her right from our first meeting where she was extremely organized and prepared. Throughout the whole wedding planning process Kelly was always available to answer any questions I had, and kept us on track to make sure we were weren’t falling behind on anything, and also staying on budget. She really listened to my husband and I, and created a design for the wedding that fit both of our styles perfectly. She was there with us every step of the way, including helping me find all the other vendors I would need for the day (trust her recommendations – I loved every vendor we used). She was also able to design all of our paper products including invitations, programs, and signage for the wedding day. Kelly is truly a phenomenal wedding planner and I would highly recommend her and her team. On top of being a true professional and the best at what she does, Kelly is just an amazing person. I loved working with her, and just want to say thank you for creating such a beautiful wedding for Chris and I. We couldn’t have done it without you!"- Michele (Bride)

"Kelly was the absolute best money my husband and I spent on our wedding! She flawlessly managed all of our vendors at our a la carte venue while ensuring that throughout the evening, my husband and I had everything we needed. Kelly's coordination leading up to the day was incredibly helpful. She guided us through details of the event and rehearsal that we had overlooked and helped us sort through any challenges. Kelly ran our rehearsal beautifully and all of our family and friends that had the pleasure of meeting with her raved about the services. I can't imagine having our wedding without Kelly and her team!" -Rebecca (Bride)

"Kelly Rex is an incredibly gifted wedding planner. I would not have made it through the wedding planning process (let alone the actual wedding!), without her by my side and guiding me through! When I first came to Kelly with a ridiculously over-pinned Pinterest wedding board, she giggled a lit bit! My wedding inspiration board contained an overwhelming amount of ideas, themes, and looks, but it didn't seem to phase her! She was able to filter through all of the ideas and dreams and identified a workable theme that incorporated an excess of ideas, seamlessly. Really truly, I was amazed at how many of the ideas my husband and I had for our wedding that Kelly used. Kelly worked with me on a weekly, and often daily!, basis to dream, collaborate, plan and execute all the final details of our wedding. She was very thorough in everything she did and her calm demeanor on the wedding day was such an asset. Everything was done to perfection, and often at a significantly reduced price than what was budgeted! (This aspect is and was definitely a bonus that Kelly was able to provide!) Kelly's attention to detail, her timeliness, and her creativity are her trademarks, and also what makes her the best! In fact, I already promised my sisters that my wedding gift to them would be to hire Kelly as their wedding planner! Truly, she's one in a million!" Jodie Gann (Bride)

"My favorite thing about Kelly is her passion for her couples and their families. She truly cared about making our wedding reflect who Sean and I are as a couple and making it an amazing experience for our families as well. Our parents cannot stop gushing about how much stress she took of them the day of; all they had to do was sit back and enjoy. I will never be able to thank her enough for all she did for us!" Whitney (Bride)
