Kelly Goes to Africa

Donation protected
Hello Everyone,

I am Kelly Denise Gardner, 28 years old and the owner of Always Different Events!

Always Different Events is a new company that started in 2015. We have a total of two wedding under our company name and over 5 celebratory events. Our most budgeted wedding last year was over $65K and had over 200 attendees. ADE works with vendors from all over finding the best price for our creative elements.

As the owner of ADE, I have been doing events for almost 10 years now. I have been an assistant planner on over 5 weddings. My focus in event planning has been working with headliner sponsors such as Nationwide, Verizon, Toyota and many more. I have a background in event planning from small baby showers to conferences of over 2000 attendees. Event planning is my passion; most of my clients and vendors are now close friends or family!

When ADE, first began I wanted to make sure everyone who trusted me with their event left more than satisfied. I wanted them to have memorable moments at a budgeted cost and still have everything or close to all they imagined for their event. When I decided to come up with pricing I took in consideration that we all deserve the glamour event with still having money left over.

In April 2017, I was invited to join the exciting state-of-the-art vendor platform --The Coterie! A wedding I planned was featured on the platform published site MunaLuchi Bridal. MunaLuchi is a multi-cultural global technology company serving the $200 billion international wedding and events industry. They cater to the growing multi-cultural wedding and events industry throughout the world with a vertical online marketplace connecting engaged couples to event professionals. The site allows engaged couples to search the database for event professionals proficient in these weddings and events.

Luckily, I am now one of those preferred vendors! I would never of thought my first wedding under my first company would get this much attention. Event planning is my passion and I think I even do in my slumber.

In December 2017, the Coterie will do a retreat in South Africa. The retreat will consist of 4 days and 3 nights of workshops, networking, celebratory events, and lots of other learning fun!

This will be a great oppourtunity for me to excel my dreams. I am really requesting your support and prayers to get me there. 

I appreciate you a million times for the love and support!
