More about me
Keith Willard Events - Events Executed Exceptionally. It is in my nature to nurture. My brides mean everything to us. I find that our relationship extends to years after the wedding. Look at my social media and my reviews on the Knot. You will see that my clients are not just clients, they become my family. What you get when you bring my company into your planning: you will get honest feedback, an advocate in all things wedding, a psychologist, a logistics expert, and endless ways to be creative with design and budget savings! My clients also enjoy immediate and constant access to our staff including an almost round the clock texting (we must sleep at some point!) When Keith Willard Events is involved in your wedding you can literally take a breath with knowledge that everything will be taken care of. About me and the experience that I bring to planning your wedding (In a nutshell) Previous Experience: Executive Director of a 501(c)3 - Where every dollar and staying in budget are the rule. Lead Planner for an international event planning company - I can figure out how to create amazing events long distance, finding the perfect vendors in any city or country. Director of Catering for Ritz-Carlton - Insider knowledge about how hotels, and their contracts, work. Creation of menus, working with executive chefs, and insight into service needs for events. Director of Catering for an independent Catering Company - Able to create an event literally anywhere. From rentals to food preparation. Current President of the National Association of Catering and Events - connections to thousands of vendors so budget and taste can be matched quickly There is literally no one in the industry that has the previous experience in all areas of event planning that I have… and I will probably be almost as excited, if not more, about your wedding! I love what I do! Services Offered For couples that need all the help they can get, or have zero clue how find a venue, Keith will be your right-hand man.
