ABOUT

DanaPhotos-32.jpg

Great Days Event Planning is a personal wedding and event planning service based in Fayetteville, GA, just 20 miles south from the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. It's owned and operated by me, Kiersten Tharp. I have a great passion for design, creativity, planning, and helping others, and I pride myself on my highly customized and distinguished events. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications from Alderson Broaddus University in Philippi, WV, and a strong background in customer service, sales, and marketing. With all of that combined came the vision of Great Days Event Planning, where I can utilize all of my gifts and previous experiences to make peoples' events inspiring, extraordinary, and unforgettable.

​

In addition to being an entrepreneur, I'm a proud mother to my beautiful and smart baby girl, Katie, and a proud wife to my incredibly supportive husband and other half, Chris. I’m also a cat mom to our good boys Jackson and Mack. Other passions of mine include music, movies, traveling, shopping, and coffee.
