Peace of Mind

I was originally in contact with Suzanne as we wanted to have our ceremony at Parkwood, but it was blocked off for potential filming. I talked with Suzanne and asked her to assist at our new venue, since I had a short time frame, and health issues that I needed to look after. Suzanne was great through the whole process, and everything went really smoothly on the day of. Our family and friends from around the globe who couldn't attend were thrilled to have the livestream set up by Ken. Thank you both!

Beautiful Wedding at Parkwood

My fiancé and I got married at Parkwood last week and the ceremony went off without a hitch. Suzanne was always very prompt, informative, and professional when answering e-mails. Ken plays the music of your choice for each part of the ceremony (processionals, signing, recessionals) perfectly! Suzanne and her team were so organized and made sure everyone felt comfortable and knew where to go. I would HIGHLY recommend having your wedding ceremony at Parkwood Estate!

Would Recommend Over and Over!

I can't get over how helpful and kind Suzanne is. She was thoughtful, respectful and offered so much help in planning our special day. Even when my venue made major changes right before our event, she was so accommodating and offered so much assistance and support. She went above and beyond what she said she would do. She is so organized and thought of all the things I didn't! Kenneth put on a beautiful display of lights, creating such a romantic and fresh look in our space. As well, he ran our sound and it was perfect, great volume, perfect timing! I would work with Kenneth Robert Entertainment again in a heartbeat!

Guests at Our Own Wedding

We hired Suzanne for our November 2022 wedding. We knew what we wanted for our big day, but we didn’t want to have to think of any of the logistics. Suzanne took care of all of that for us!

We planned a surprise ceremony for our immediate families and bridal party for us to legally get married before our larger ceremony that was officiated by a friend. She handled all the details of that and nobody suspected a thing! Every single person was totally surprised! We would have never been able to pull that off without her.

Her and her team also handled setting up our hall. It looked gorgeous for the ceremony and they were able to flip it very quickly for the reception. They also handled the take down and clean up of all the decorations and safely collected all of our personal items (cake topper, candles, etc) at the end of the night.

We had a major issue with our wedding flowers (faux florals ordered from the U.S.). Suzanne put me at ease right away and she even picked up my bouquet for me before our ceremony. She helped to keep everything running on schedule during our wedding and I was able to relax and just take in the day.

Because we hired Suzanne, we were truly able to be guests at our own wedding. We were able to spend the ENTIRE night on the dance floor and mingling with our guests, while she handled literally everything else. We didn’t have to do a single thing except enjoy ourselves! Not only was this easier on us as the couple, but it made things easier on our parents and bridal party — nobody had to “work” or assist with anything for our wedding. They all just got to have fun.

Suzanne and her team were a total joy to deal with and were extremely helpful. Working with them alleviated a lot of that wedding planning stress and I cannot recommend them enough! I don’t think my husband and I would have been able to fully relax and have as much fun on our wedding day if it weren’t for Suzanne.

The most amazing wedding experiece

Suzanne and Ken made the wedding planning experience a breeze. Myself and my husband did not have to worry about a single thing, everything was very clear and communicated well to us at all stages. I would also like to mention that because we booked in 2020 and delayed due to the pandemic, Suzanne and Ken kept in touch for TWO whole years, continually updating our needs and making sure we were taken care of, up until the day of the wedding, and afterward. We love Suzanne and Ken!!!

Wedding Dreams Came True

Absolutely beautiful venue. Suzanne helped me SO much getting my big wedding ceremony together and truly making all my dreams come true. She was so helpful, responsive, and I truly couldn’t have done my wedding with out her. My ceremony was outside and it was so magical and beautiful. All the staff was very friendly and helpful during the day of and they kept me very calm. I would 100% recommend going to Parkwood for any event and using Suzanne as your planner!

Kenneth Robert Entertainment is amazing!

Kenneth Robert Entertainment is amazing! Suzanne helped my mother plan my bridal shower in April and from there I knew I needed her to help me with my day-of coordination for my wedding in June! She is super organized, detail-oriented, and the sweetest person you'll ever meet. We had the shower at Parkwood Estates as well as our photos on the morning of the wedding. Suzanne and Ken were experts when it came to the mansion and were beyond helpful from beginning to end. Meetings with Suzanne leading up to our wedding day were so helpful, she visited the venue with us and we met regularly to get ready for the big day!
Having this amazing team to relay on either through phone calls, text or emails was such a relief in such a busy time in our lives. Highly highly recommend them!
Your help and support was so very appreciated, our wedding day was perfect and we could not have done it without Kenneth Robert!
