Her fellows ‘hens’ have paid touching tributes to the “gorgeous” and “bubbly” 29-year-old who had passed a masters degree in 2016 from Birmingham City University.
Coroner Anita Bhardwaj handed down a conclusion of an alcohol-related death.
She said: "It's more likely than not the alcohol consumed has rendered Kay unconscious.
“Kay has vomited and inhaled gastric acid into her upper airway, resulting in her death.
"It's something that a lot of people do, going out drinking, it's not something that is unusual and she was clearly very unfortunate as to the results of what happened. I think this just demonstrates how dangerous alcohol can be."
A web page has been set up in her memory by heartbroken friends where they have paid tribute to her.
Louise wrote on the site: "Enjoy the heavens my perfect Kay. I wish you could be here to see just how loved you are.
“Make sure you have a pint waiting for me beautiful. I love you more than words could ever say, and actions could ever show.
“You are the light in my world and I will keep you with me forever."
Bride Lauren Kenny said: "Keep smiling and singing gorgeous girl! Until we meet again you will always hold a special place in my heart."
Another friend Gemma added: "Kay, you had the ability to instantly put people at ease. From the moment we met, your positive bubbly personality just radiated and it was an absolute pleasure being around you.
“I cannot believe how our weekend with so many amazing memories ended the way it did and I’m just so sorry.
