About Kinkead Performance & Events

Kinkead Performance & Events

Designer/Planner/Coordinator

We are women owned & operated, and we provide Officiation, Design, Planning, Coordination, Set Up, Break Down, Decorating, Bartending & DJ services. We also provide digital design, decor and faux floral rentals, plus have an Audio guestbook. We love what we do! We love making our couples' wedding days the best we possibly can by not just making their vision a reality, but also by taking as much stress off of them as we can. We are pretty much a one stop shop for events of all kinds and what we don't provide, we have connections to great people who do! We would love to help you out with your big day & any other events you have coming up.

We like to think what sets us apart from other vendors is our commitment to open lines of communication at all times. We would rather you ask us a question than wonder about something. We pretty much answer all messages and calls immediately (within a couple of hours) and if we can't talk immediately, we will try not to leave you hanging--we will instead let you know we saw your message and get back to you ASAP! We also believe in collaboration over competition so we will make sure to get what you need, even if it isn't through us. We want you to be happy with your day and will make sure we do our best for that to happen for you.

In three words: Confident, Honest, Resourceful

    Amazing!

    We loved working with Kristi and her team! Everything from hiring to clean up went smoothly. My friends, who are planning their wedding, we're so impressed with Kristi and her teams work they grabbed her card to hire her for their wedding! If you hire Kristi, you'll be in capable, dedicated, caring and trusted hands.

    Wedding Coordinator/ DJ

    Working with Kinkead Performance & Events was the best decision we made for our wedding. From day one, they actually listened to what we wanted and answered every single question we had. They guided us through every decision without making it stressful, and honestly made the whole process feel effortless. Their attention to detail showed in every part of our day, and nothing was overlooked. We felt taken care of from start to finish, and our wedding turned out perfect. We can't recommend them highly enough.

    The Best Ever

    Kris is the absolute best at what she does. She is determined, thorough and a perfectionist. If you want someone to keep everyone on course she is your person. She was the best money we spent in the whole wedding. And to top it off she makes you feel loved!

    We absolutely loved Kinkead!! This company made our out of state wedding come together with no issues! Kristi was great with all of our planning phone calls, when it came to our wedding day we had Larissa, Amanda, and Karla! They were absolutely amazing; it completely exceeded any of our expectations. Larissa and Amanda were a hoot in the DJ booth, they were getting down with us and vibing all night! We couldn’t have done it without you and have already said if we plan any future events in TN again we will definitely be contacting you… even if it’s just for a family reunion because yall were such a good time!💕

    I absolutely loved every second of working with Kris and her team. From our very first conversation I KNEW I needed her on my big day. I used her and her team for several aspects of my wedding from Dj, officiant, and day of coordinating and everything went more than perfectly and completely lived up to my expectations. Every phone call felt so warm, and personable and even when planning big events it felt like I truly had a friend on my side. I cannot say thank you enough !! If you are on the fence, don’t be, hire her I promise you will not regret it.
