That gasp when the couple sees the room for the first time?
We live for it
The vision is real
The space is set
The party’s about to start
This is what happens when the details are locked in and the timeline runs tight

Timelines? Handled. Vendors? Managed. You? Rocking fake mustaches and living your best life.

Because when I run the show, there’s room in the day to laugh, dance, and be ridiculous on purpose.

Don’t be afraid of COLOR on your wedding day. This bold orange cocktail table with vibrant florals made a statement in the middle of a green nursery and brought the whole space to life.

Color is such a powerful way to add personality when it’s used with intention.

If you’ve ever wondered what a wedding coordinator actually does… it’s this. And sometimes a whole lot more.

Yes, I made sure the ceremony started on time.
Yes, I fluffed dresses, calmed nerves, and kept the wedding party lined up.
Yes, I adjusted chairs and cued music.

But I also:
• Rearranged the entire seating chart—day of—so the photographer could capture the reception in the best light
• Cleaned bird p**p off chairs (glamorous, I know)
• Dodged puddles and dried chairs after a downpour
• Smiled through it all so you didn’t have to stress

Because here’s the truth:
Your wedding day should feel like magic—and that kind of smooth, beautiful experience takes intention, backup plans, and a lot of behind-the-scenes hustle.

That’s what a coordinator does.
We make the chaos invisible so you can be fully present.

Picture this: You’re walking out of your ceremony, officially married, and your wedding planner hands you your very first drink of the night. It’s cold, it’s perfect, and so are you two. Cheers to the best beginning!

Dreaming of a sparkler exit but your venue doesn’t allow it?

This couple opted for fiber optic lights! It’s a fun, fire-free alternative that doubled as a dance floor prop and kept the party going all night long!

Let’s get creative with our send-offs! Fire is fun, but so are:
• Bubbles
• LED wands
• Confetti poppers
• Glow sticks
• Ribbon wands
• Cold sparks (venue-permitting)
• Tambourines or bells
• Eco-friendly dried flower petals

There are so many ways to end your night with a bang without the flames. OR if your venue permits I’ll bring the water bucket!

Details matter—but the people matter more. Choose your crew wisely

As a wedding planner, I’ve seen firsthand how the energy of your inner circle sets the tone for your entire day. Surround yourself with people who calm your nerves, hype you up, and genuinely want the best for you.

Choose friends who show up—not just in a suit or dress, but emotionally and mentally. The ones who’ll laugh with you, cry with you, grab you a snack when you forget to eat, or help fix your dress or tie without hesitation.

It’s not about matching outfits—it’s about unmatched support.

From the very first call with the Fritters, I knew this day was going to be something special. Every detail mattered to them—and it mattered to me, too. That’s why I’m so intentional about who I bring onto each wedding team.

I handpick assistants who care just as much as I do. The kind of people who will jump in with a sewing kit, run interference with a smile, and make sure the couple feels nothing but peace and joy.

Watching it all come together for this sweet couple was pure magic—and hearing words like this after? Just the icing on the (wedding) cake.

Someone dropped the cake? No problem. Your coordination team improvises! We deconstructed a bridesmaid bouquet and stage a distraction like it was all part of the plan. Our couple had no idea about this until MONTHS after the event when the family member told them they dropped the cake.

Meet Maddie — the Lead Assistant on the Planned by KD team. She’s calm, capable, and somehow everywhere at once — handling details, fluffing dresses, and keeping the day on track without breaking a sweat.

(Also, she’s a full foot taller than me, which is super convenient for reaching arbors and top shelves.)

She keeps me in the loop on Gen Z trends and patiently answers all my Millennial questions about TikTok and social media. When she’s not harshly judging my music choices, she’s keeping me sane and making wedding days way more fun.
