Kendal Perry: A Wedding Planning Studio - Helena, Alabama

Kendal was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish!! Any questions i had she immediately answered and had so many great contacts/ hook ups to help with all of the stressful wedding details. My wedding day was totally stress free thanks to Kendal, and she brought every vision to life just like i had pictured it. Ladies, I highly recommend using her for your big day; best decision i ever made!

I couldn’t think of a better person to plan weddings! Kendal is absolutely hands down someone with the biggest heart for others and is just so great at making sure a bride has the best day ever. As a photographer I see so many different planners and she is hands down a favorite to work with! I adore her and the love she has for her clients!

I am very disappointed by Kendal Perry wedding planning. Though I had an initial conversation with Kendal, I never heard from her again after sending my payment. Kendal remained unresponsive despite numerous attempts to follow up. This unprofessional act is fraudulent and inconsiderate. I would never recommend this business.

Kendal is very personable & I enjoyed all our conversations, but I was very disappointed with the planning experience I had. Our wedding was beautiful, our vendors were all amazing, we had a little ceremony issue but it wasn’t even a big deal, we just tried our best to relax & enjoy the entire day. My complaints are mainly communication & payment issues.

I believe I overpaid for the services I received. Kendal told me she was offering what she calls “partial planning” because I had already booked the venue & done several initial steps.

The communication was overall poor in my opinion. We talked some but not consistently & responses were not always timely or there was no follow-up for things we discussed. I would have imagined much better communication at least the week of the wedding, if not also weekly check-ins throughout the planning process. Wouldn’t that be normal/expected? Maybe I’m wrong, but it seems like there should be some standard for check-ins from the business you’re paying for a service.

I didn’t even hear from her the week of my wedding until I asked if we could talk (we did) & then I never heard from her the day of the rehearsal dinner until we met up that night. She left before dinner started without even saying anything. I think anyone would think that’s rude! No text to say I’m leaving - nothing. Even the morning of the wedding I didn’t hear from her until she showed up.

I did have a very small wedding with basically just family & because of that, I think some recommendations may have been made to me or rather were not made, based on it resulting in less work for her to do. Maybe I wasn’t a priority because I didn’t have as many guests. I could be wrong, but that was how it felt even the day of. Isn’t what you’re paying for the guidance, organization, suggestions etc? There wasn’t much guidance at all. I really feel like I did most of the work and communication with vendors but she did help me book a band, deal with linens, & go over the timeline at rehearsal/direct us the day of.

She had me mail the checks to her home address as stated in the contract but she told me later she had issues with her mail. I tried contacting her multiple times even prior to the wedding about the last check because it was never deposited - called, emailed, texted, left a voicemail - never heard anything back. I thought maybe she felt bad because she knew she didn’t do the greatest job handling my wedding & just wasn’t ever going to say anything & forget the last payment.

Finally, she responded to my last email, my final attempt - asking if I mailed it to her address, which I did (same place as the first 2 checks). So I cancelled the check I wrote in September and mailed another one in mid-November. She didn’t deposit it until December 19th, right before Christmas. And not surprisingly, she did NOT reach out to let me know she was depositing it. If you want to get paid, your client shouldn’t have to reach out that many times with no reply & you should probably get a PO Box.
