About A Wedding Come True

Abby Church

Owner - Lead Planner

Hey there, I'm Abby Church—a Certified Event Planner in Kansas City, deeply immersed in the wedding and event scene for over 14 years. I take pride in providing each client with creative and enthusiastic service. Walking alongside our wonderful couples throughout their engagement, building friendships, and then witnessing their wedding days come to fruition is one of the most rewarding blessings I am honored to experience. I approach everything with a “heart of a servant” mentality, making sure your experience feels warm, personal, and completely focused on you.

What makes us stand out in the world of wedding planning? It’s the experience and passion I bring to the table. I’ve spent over 14 years working in roles like venue sales, catering manager, venue director, bridal gown consultant and photobooth operations, so I truly understand every part of a wedding. This means I can anticipate and handle all the little details with ease.

    Abby is fantastic

    Abby and the team at A Wedding Come True are fantastic to work with. Their communication style is clear, concise and creative, helping guide couples through the process with a calm, intuitive approach. The quality of their work is exceptional - they are organized, thoughtful, and efficient, taking a couple's vision and weaving all the pieces together seamlessly. Abby is a true professional, handling every situation with grace and ease. She is skilled at everything she does, and past brides we've spoken to have nothing but good things to say about her and the A Wedding Come True team. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a wedding planner who will make their special day a breeze.

I started in the wedding and event industry in 2010 as an event manager. I've managed three different venues in the downtown Kansas City area while growing my professional network and my own client list. I started A Wedding Come True in 2012. And I went fulltime for myself in 2018.
My clients' wedding styles are most often described as elegant, timeless and romantic. The elements that stand out the most are the intentionality to their loved ones and each other, personalized touches, and having a high-end guest experience. I love to help my clients consider all areas of opportunity to make their day uniquely theirs, and leave no stone unturned int he consideration of making this a once-in-a-lifetime occasion to swing for the fences!
Yes! I have a lot of amazingly talented friends in the wedding industry serving any possible category our couples will need. My favorite part of getting to know each of our couples is matching their style/personality and requests perfectly to the pros I know they will hit it off with! I love being a Match Maker!
Yep! My past couples and their families are amazing! And they are so kind to share their words in these reviews - you can read many of them on Knot.com
