“Rene is the consummate professional. She has impeccable taste and style. I’ve worked with her on several occasions and each event was better than the last!”
Rene has been an invaluable resource donating her time and talent for my non-profit’s Gala. Her eye for detail and style have taken our décor to a new level!
Saturday was the complicated evening as it was an outdoor venue. The tent she recommended was perfect, exactly the correct size to accommodate all the guests comfortably but leaving plenty of room for dancing. the layout she did was perfect. The flow for the cocktail hour was impeccable and the buffet traffic was perfect. No-one had to wait for more than a few minutes to get to their choice of station. After looking at several caterers, Ms. Kraus recommended Gallatin Grillers who did an excellent job. She helped select the menu for both the cocktail hour and dinner and everyone raved about the food.
Ms. Kraus helped me choose love flower arrangements for the tables along with decorations including flowered metal globes hanging from a wire across the tent poles which she decorated herself. The service was impeccable and she made sure all the timing was right on. Sunday evening was dinner at a restaurant. She coordinated with the chef, made sure the tables were perfectly set and decorated, placed all the favors so as to add to the look of the tables, and again, kept us all on time.
In addition to the evening events, Ms. Kraus took care of the Saturday tour of Yellowstone National Park, making sure that the bus was properly stocked and returned on time for the evenings activities, and made sure the white water rafting expedition for 27 of the guests went without a hitch! I can’t thank her enough for all the work she put in. If you are looking for someone to make your event flawless, you need look no further.
René is a thoughtful planner and was super helpful and creative when it came to decorating on a nonprofit organization’s budget. We really appreciated her contributions!
