    Certe Management is an outstanding event planning and design company.  I have used them and worked with founder Kim Ray Smith on countless events which have all been extremely well-organized and a great experience for the attendees.

    Our brand has been vastly enhanced through the engagement of a professional planning team that understands our strategic objectives. We now incorporate Certe and our events into our annual budgeting process and consistently capture more bang for our buck with measurable ROI. I highly recommend Kim and her team to any CEO that is looking at workforce retention and experience as a critical item.

    I’ve worked with Kim on projects large and small for the last 15 years. I can say without a doubt that her organizational skills and management style are surpassed by none in the event industry. She is detail driven yet allows her vendors creative freedom when her trust is earned.

    Kim and Kelly are a “dynamic duo” in the event planning business and best in Louisville. They never missed one call and made us feel like my “album release party” was the most important event – that made us happy. I would highly recommend Certe Management to anyone in the business of hiring an event company to plan your next event. Without Certe Management, my album release party would not have been as successful and run so smoothly.


    A huge thank you from my team.

    Kim is creative and excellent at branding an event to maximize its revenue and attendee experience. Every event that she has led for me has been an outstanding success and raved about by attendees who eagerly return the following year. I could not imagine running a non-profit event without her incredible event management expertise

    My team and I had an absolute wonderful experience with Certe, start to finish. I felt like I could 100% rely on Kim to execute and complete anything I had tasked her with and asked her for. She knows Louisville like no other. I would recommend Certe to any and all looking plan in the area.
