My dream wedding happened about two weeks ago in Salem, Oregon, so I recently had the pleasure of working with Katelyn from Weddings by Leslye and Katelyn for my Italian garden inspired wedding, and I can confidently say she exceeded all my expectations. From our first consultation to the big day, Katelyn was a constant source of support and creativity.
One of the standout qualities of Katelyn is her accessibility. Whether I had a question, needed advice, or just wanted to bounce around ideas, she was always just a message/phone call away. This level of communication made the planning process not only stress-free but genuinely enjoyable. This was my biggest concern as a first time bride because I was uncertain about what the process would be like.
Katelyn's expertise was present through every detail of our wedding. She helped bring my vision to life with her thoughtful suggestions and keen eye for design. The floral arrangements and decor perfectly captured the romantic, garden-inspired theme I envisioned. One thing I would recommend would be to also ask Katelyn to help plan the bridal shower. I did that and it helped me have peace of mind seeing an event done first before the wedding; this way we weren’t “officially” doing our first event together on the big day.
If you’re looking for a wedding planner who is dedicated, responsive, and extremely talented, I highly recommend Katelyn and her team. They truly made my dream wedding a reality, and I could not be happier with my decision of having Katelyn plan the most important day of my life!!!

We hired Katelyn as a full-service planner. My partner and I wanted someone who had experience with a Western-Indian fusion wedding. Katelyn has had years of experience in the wedding industry along with her mother. After our first call, I knew we had to choose this awesome mother-daughter duo. Katelyn was very responsive from the beginning! She is a very warm, kind, fun, and so easy to get along with! Katelyn was on top of everything! She met with us in person, called, texted, emailed all of our updates, and was there for every question we needed answered! Communication and being on the same page with all the vendors is key to putting on a big event. Katelyn dealt with all of our vendors, made sure to keep track of all the payments, and ensured the wedding day went seamlessly. We would definitely recommend Katelyn and her team for all your wedding needs!

Katelyn was the best decision myself and my husband made for our wedding day. She matched our energy and excitement for our special occasion and made planning a breeze! I originally thought I could do everything myself, but I am so happy I decided to bring Katelyn on as she brought so much knowledge and creativity to my ideas. She was wonderful with our vendors, quick at responding to any questions/concerns that we had, set up meetings and onsite visits to go over the plans, and always kept a positive attitude and smile on her face from start to finish. Our wedding went so smooth which was a huge weight lifted off of our shoulders and allowed us to enjoy every moment without having to stress. She was a dream to work with and would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a well versed wedding planner!

Thank you so much Weddings by Lesley, and especially Katelyn! Katelyn is truly a godsend. Without you nothing would have turned out the way it did. You were amazing, kind, professional, attentive, extremely responsive in answering emails, texts, and calls. You made us feel important and you showed us you truly cared about our wedding. Thanks to you, our wedding was BEYOND beautiful!! You delivered and it turned out even better than we envisioned. A real life fairytale. We appreciate you more than you know.
Thank you to all the vendors as well, you brought in some amazing people to help and we are so grateful for everything you all contributed to our special day! You guys were all absolutely incredible.

Katelyn and Leslye are both some of the most kind, genuine, and calm people you’ll meet. Katelyn was the most wonderful, professional, and incredibly responsive planner I’ve worked with. She not only responded to my every annoying email but also CAME THROUGH with amazing vendors. Truly, her vendor recommendations were priceless. And she was so incredibly helpful navigating all of the issues that will absolutely come up while planning a wedding during COVID. The week of the wedding I was able to be present with my family from out of town and not worry about all the little details because I knew Katelyn had it handled. I would 100% recommend Katelyn and Leslye to plan your wedding, their expertise and knowledge is worth every penny.

Katelyn was the absolute best wedding planner my wife and I could have asked for. She was there every step of the way making sure that all of our vendors were in line and informed, we were happy with everything, and that our special day was executed smoothly. Katelyn's critical thinking when faced with challenges in the wedding process are unmatched, as she was able to accommodate all opinions and wants, and come up with the best solution that everyone was happy with. We had the most incredible wedding thanks to Katelyn and her team, and we wish her many many more successful weddings. Thank you again Katelyn for making our day so special!
