I can confidently say that Kate has been the best planner I have ever had the privilege of working with. She is organized, friendly, brilliantly creative and a genuinely wonderful person to have by your side while you are planning your special day. You don’t have to think twice about it, you will only be completely grateful for having her beside you and blown away by her professionalism and the effortless manner in which your event will come together.”

We look forward to working with Bash again. Baby shower perhaps?”

When I get the opportunity to work with Kate I know that the process of getting all the information I need about the timeline and the events of the day will be seamless. She really stands apart from the rest with her timeous responses, prompt payments and everything else admin related to make the lives easier of every other service provider involved in the wedding. I also often have the loveliest behind the scenes photos of her working to make the couple’s day extra special. She has a way of dealing with the family members that is so comforting and I can see how she completely eases them into what can sometimes be a stressful day emotions running high.
