2024 KGW Recap

Gosh, what a year it has been for Kaitie Gill Weddings! It’s crazy to think that 2024 is coming to a close. And, of course, like most, I’m reflecting back on the year. So, without further ado, here’s The KGW recap for 2024. 01. Ultimate Wedding Experience Kaitie Gill Weddings came in hot for t...

It’s difficult to comprehend that we are almost entering a new year, yet here we are about to ring in 2025.

As I reflect on this past year, personally and business wise I can’t help but be grateful and give God glory.

I’ll be sharing a blog New Year’s Eve reflecting on all things KGW from 2024, but for now after this post I’m taking the time to sip some coffee and review my wedding planning process.

I truly love revisiting how I operate things for my couples at the end of the year to make sure I’m always providing the best and most user-friendly planning experience.

The Ceremony.

The most important part of your wedding day. It’s here where you’ll declare your commitment to your spouse and seal it with a kiss surrounded by your favorite people.

Planning a wedding is fun and it’s easy to get caught up in all the pretty details, but don’t forget why you’re doing all the planning in the first place.

The KGW Team introductions continue…

Meet our wonderful team of wedding day assistants and executive admin.

Taylor is a full-time daycare director and it’s actually how Kaitie and her met! She is married and has two kiddos and the most precious fur baby named Jackson. Taylor has dreams to open up her very own wedding venue one day and truly enjoys getting to see all the behind-the-scenes on wedding days. And, her and her aunt just launched a storefront called Kinfolk Acres in the Benton/Bryant area!

Lynley is our executive admin and assists on wedding days when home from college. Lynley helps Kaitie’s brain stay sane which is no easy feat. As KGW’s executive administrator, she literally helps with a little bit of everything. She is passionate about dance and her sorority, Delta Gamma. She currently attends UofA working on her degree in Public Health and is a pre-physician assistant. She’s a go-getter, if you can’t tell.

Carley recently graduated from UCA with her degree in nursing and is a full-time labor and delivery nurse. To say she’s great with helping in emotional circumstances, is an understatement. She loves to travel and also LOVES dogs and has two of her own, Asher and Willie.

Last but not least, Jessica thrives in the details of wedding days. Planning events is one of her love languages and making sure couples (& their families) don’t have to worry with the logistics on wedding day is something she is passionate about. Outside of weddings, she is a proud dog mom and boutique owner (DS Capsule) with an eye for minimalist design.

Meet “The Nicole’s” who are also principal planners on the KGW Team. To know them, is to love them and gosh, the KGW Team is better because of them.

Nicole joined the KGW team in September of 2020. You’ll have to ask us how Kaitie and her met. It’s one of those stories where it’s just like - Yep, we are going to be friends for life! Since then, Nicole has become an integral part of KGW and our biggest cheerleader. Her big dream is to one day build her own wedding venue.

Nicole or Gammel, as the KGW Team refers to her as, has truly made our team feel so complete. An epitome of a sweet-spirit, Gammel’s love for helping people just comes so natural. In her spare time you can find her playing golf, watching sports, or sitting outside enjoying the Arkansas weather. She loves to travel, spend time with her church family, and making memories with her family and friends.

We love The Nicole’s!

Meet Caroline & Wednesday! They are both principal planners on the KGW Team and they truly are lights in every room they enter.

Caroline is an alum of Arkansas State and full-time teacher. She married her husband in October 2021 at one of our favorite venues, Rusty Tractor Vineyards - Home of Sunset Lodge. It was a small world moment when she joined the KGW Team because Kaitie and Caroline actually went to the same church. Caroline loves the wedding industry, but what she loves even more is the title “Aunt” and spoiling her niece and nephew.

Wednesday joined the KGW Team after meeting Kaitie at a wedding show. She’s truly passionate about planning and creating unforgettable memories. When she’s not at a wedding she is traveling, spending time with her husband and kiddos, reading, and studying for her Business Administration, MBA.

We love Caroline & Wednesday!!

Grateful.

This past week part of the KGW Team had the privilege of attending The Wedding MBA in Las Vegas. Words truly cannot express how much I love this group of ladies that KGW has allowed me to get to know. We learned SO much and I can’t wait to implement things learned.

Then, on Saturday, we had our last wedding of 2024. After a busy wedding season in 2023, I decided to try and intentionally keep the holiday season free of weddings this year to be able to spend every possible moment with my family. It has been the absolute best decision.

I can’t wait to share the KGW recap of the 2024 year, but for now, I have an inbox full of emails and am fine-tuning 2025 wedding plans for our 2025 couples. Eek!

11/11/2024

The KGW Team is headed to VEGAS for The Wedding MBA!

We will be working here and there but our main focus this week is getting to spend time as a team and continuing to enhance our knowledge of the wedding industry. ✨

Kayleigh Ross Photography came over to take photos of my new office all decked out for Christmas!

& I am beyond excited to show-off the first official photos of my office. This has been a long, long dream that is finally a reality!

I bought this shed in July of 2023 and it took a year to get it perfect. Ryan spent SO MANY nights getting it prepped to be a functional space and, gosh, did he outdid himself.

The KGW office is truly perfect.

Thank you again, Kayleigh, for coming over and capturing my space so well. Your friendship means the world to me & any bride who books you as their photographer is the luckiest.
