About Mak(e) It Happen Moments

Makenzie (Mak) Kahan

Founder & Owner

Hi, I'm Makenzie, otherwise known as Mak! I'm a day-of coordinator and event planner based in North Richland Hills, serving couples across Dallas-Fort Worth. I don't just plan, I roll up my sleeves and MAK(e) it happen: confirming every vendor, building a minute-by-minute timeline, handling setup and teardown and troubleshooting so nothing reaches you. I love the details most people never notice, like the ribbon on every favor and a timeline that runs like clockwork. My goal is simple: you and your family get to relax and actually be a guest at your own wedding.

I'm hands-on from start to finish. For one DIY bride with truckloads of thrifted decor across three spaces, I turned a 12-hour setup into 4 and had everything torn down before midnight. Booked couples get a private client portal to pay and keep every document in one place, right from their phone. Travel within DFW is included, and you sign with and pay vendors directly, so you always know exactly what you're paying. If I'm ever unable to be there, I'll provide a qualified coordinator you approve or refund everything you've paid.

In three words: Confident, Organized, Thoughtful

Description

Concept to cleanup. I'm with you from the start on design, budget, and sourcing and managing every vendor, then I run the whole day so you never have to. You sign with and pay vendors directly, so you always know exactly what you're paying, and everything lives in your private client portal. Starts at $3,500 or 15% of your wedding budget, whichever is higher.

Month-of coordination for couples who want a hand bringing it all together. I step in 4-6 weeks out to finalize logistics, confirm every vendor, build your timeline and own the run of show on the big day, from setup to teardown. You get a calm final month and a day you actually get to enjoy. Need vendors found and booked? Add vendor sourcing & booking for $300.

You've done the planning, now enjoy your day! I take over about a week out, confirm every vendor, build your minute-by-minute timeline and run the day from setup to teardown, up to 12 hours on site. I handle the troubleshooting so you and your family can relax and be guests at your own wedding. Add rehearsal management ($250), extra hours ($75/hr) or a second coordinator ($250/event).

    SATISFIED!!

    Working with Mak(e) It Happen Moments was such a breath of fresh air from start to finish. Makenzie and her team had fantastic communication throughout the entire planning process, making everything feel easy and pleasant every step of the way. She brought great ideas to the table while staying honest about what would work best for our vision, and her organizational skills were truly impressive. On our wedding day, she orchestrated all the events flawlessly and everything went off without a glitch. We loved her ability to get things done quickly and efficiently without sacrificing any details. We can't recommend her enough and would absolutely work with her again!

    Hibachi party

    Makenzie was the best in coordinating the hibachi event she hosted. She listened and paid attention to every detail that really made it all come together and personalized it to my liking. She gives so much effort and heart into every aspect to make sure the event is special and tailored to you. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

    Thank you so much, Matt! I loved planning the hibachi night and making every detail feel personal to you. I’m so glad it all came together. Thank you for trusting Mak(e) It Happen Moments! 😊


Send me your date, guest count and venue through Zola, by text or by email. I'll send a tailored quote within 48 hours, and a signed agreement plus a 50% deposit locks in your date. The balance is due 14 days before your wedding.
Day-of: you've done the planning, and I take over about a week out to confirm details and run your wedding day. Month-of: I step in 4 to 6 weeks out to finalize logistics, confirm every vendor, build the timeline and own the run of show.
The deposit holds your date and is non-refundable, because I turn away other events to keep it for you. If I'm ever unable to be there, I'll provide a qualified coordinator you approve, or refund everything you've paid.
I'm happy to recommend vendors I trust, and with vendor sourcing and booking ($300) I'll find and book them for you. You sign with and pay each vendor directly, so you always know exactly what you're paying.
Yes. You can move your date once at no charge if you ask more than 30 days before the wedding and the new date is within 12 months and open on my calendar. Your payments move with you.
All of Dallas-Fort Worth, including Dallas, Fort Worth, Keller, Southlake, Grapevine, Frisco, Plano and Arlington. Travel within DFW is included. Weddings more than 60 miles out add a travel fee.
I don't serve or provide alcohol. Your caterer or venue's licensed, insured bartender handles that, and I'll coordinate them with the rest of your timeline.
You'll work directly with me, Mak, from your first call through your send-off. For larger weddings I can add a second on-site coordinator for $250, and I bring trained event helpers when the setup calls for it.
Yes! I plan showers, engagement parties, birthdays and company events across DFW. For your wedding weekend, I can also run your rehearsal for $250.
