"My husband and I are so, so pleased we chose KUE for full wedding planning from start to finish. Our wedding was seamless and simply perfect - Dana and her team coordinated an army of vendors and wedding guests across multiple locations in the background, which allowed us to really enjoy our wedding and melt in the experience. We could not be happier with our wedding experience and it could not have happened without Dana and Keyed Up Events!"

"Out of all of our vendors, we felt that KUE's wedding planning services were by far the most worthwhile investment."

"I had the pleasure of getting to work with Dana directly for our wedding. From the very first phone call I had with her, I knew that we needed her to be a part of our day. There is no way I could have planned without KUE. I could list out all of the things that they helped me with but the list would be never ending. We were able to be guests at our own wedding with KUE there to guide all of the other guests and vendors. They arrived before me on the wedding day and left at about the same time, ensuring everything went smoothly, and everything exceeded our expectations. Even making sure we had a drink in hand throughout the night! I will miss working with Dana because I enjoyed it so much! There are just not enough words to describe how grateful we were to work with Keyed Up Events!"

"Keyed Up Events was an amazing asset to our stellar vendor team. Dana Allison was super helpful to have as both our wedding planner and our day of coordinator. She pulled everything together thinking of every little detail including personalized cocktail napkins. Dana was easy to communicate with and organized. She helped us stay on time - getting us from the ceremony to reception in one smooth transition. We were able to enjoy our wedding without worrying about all of the little details and that is the biggest gift of all!"

"In addition to ensuring the event ran smoothly with logistics, Keyed Up Events was there for anything from helping tie our floral piece to the arch, coordinating tipping vendors at the end of the night, and constantly checking in on us! They were ready to do the "small' things like grabbing my shoes that I left somewhere, or swapping them out with more comfortable ones.... ensuring I was hydrated and eating. So so friendly and helpful."

"She thought of several details that had not even crossed my mind."

I’m Dana Allison (she/her), and while my official title is owner and lead wedding planner at Keyed Up Events, I prefer to think of myself as a joy guide. Getting married should be one of the most magical times in your life, and with our help, it will be.
