Bride 411 Details
"My fiance and I are both currently in Iraq and we plan to wed on August 01, 2009. From my initial contact with Kay via email from Iraq she has been professional and extremely welcoming and helpful. Kay has been with us from the very of the planning stages and she has been absolutely wonderful. She is so thorough and knowledgeable and always, always, always on top of everything. During my vacations which occur every four months and when I am in the country, Kay maximizes the 10 days I have to cover everything that needs to be done and it is never overwhelming. I actually still have time to relax before departing the country. We have managed to plan my wedding in 2 physical visits and countless number of e-mails. I can not imagine the planning going better if I were in the country. She has certainly taken the stress and worry out of whole event for me and made it a fun experience. It is without doubt the best money we have spent thus far. She is......GREAT!!!!! We absolutely love her...... "
