sarah tedder, wedding planner

Hello! I am Sarah Tedder. I graduated college with a Hospitality Management major with a minor in Event Management. Then, I became a Certified Wedding Planner and a Certified Wedding Designer through The Bridal Society. I now am working on my fifth year in business. I serve the sweetest couples, and feel so fulfilled to be living my dream. There is something special about working to design a detailed day and seeing it come to completion. I love the feeling of executing a wedding that is memorable for everyone who attends. I am a listening ear, idea generator, train fluffer, timeline creator, boutonniere pinner, and the point of contact for all of your vendors. 

I currently live in Birmingham, Alabama. I am an enneagram 7, which explains why I love to celebrate every little moment. I spend my free time with my friends on a road trip or with my nose stuck in a Nicolas Sparks book. Yes, I am a sucker for romance. I love getting to know people's stories, quiet moments on a mountain top, and hand-crafted cocktails. Let’s connect. Let’s begin celebrating.

 “I could not have been more pleased with my wedding planning experience with Kindred Weddings! After our first meeting, I quickly realized that we had made the right choice by hiring her as our wedding planner. I came to the meeting with a few ideas in mind as to what I had envisioned for my wedding day, but Sarah offered so many more wonderful ideas that I had never even thought of! One thing I really like about her planning process is that she is always trying to help you find that special detail that sets your wedding apart from others. I had a year-long engagement and Sarah made sure to stay in touch with me, whether it be through an in-person or virtual meeting to perfect every detail for my wedding day. If I ever needed help finding the right vendor, she was always quick to make great suggestions. She also really took a load off me when I got busy with work by designing our save the dates and mailing them out for us! She manages all the RSVPs for the wedding day too, which was so nice! Sarah worked so hard on my wedding weekend, and for that I am so grateful. After the rehearsal dinner, she stayed at the venue perfecting every little detail for the next day.She has such a fun personality too and is great with rounding people up and keeping your wedding party and family in line. She is super friendly and definitely is not one of those planners that yells at guests. I received so many compliments on my wedding and I owe many of them to Sarah Tedder. Without her assistance, my wedding would not have been what it was. I am so thankful to have had her by my side on my special day and to now have her as a friend too!”

"Sarah was a dream to work with, she was punctual and so professional. She made our day so stress free. We had the best experience before the wedding as well, she made sure all the details were in place, calling all of our vendors to make sure everyone was on the same page. We had so many compliments on how organized, professional and just how sweet Sarah is. We had a malfunction with a groomsman shirt and Sarah went out of her way to go get him another shirt. The day before the wedding Sarah made sure everything was how we wanted it, she didn’t leave until I thought everything was perfect. Sarah would be the perfect addition to anyone’s special day!"
