YOUR LIVELY
I’m a mom, a best friend, and an expert in wrangling chickens, goats, dogs, and wedding day details, all with a smile. I love helping couples plan their dream Vermont weddings.
My love for planning events started with my son, Kaleb’s birthday parties. Now, he’s part of the team, and together we help couples create amazing celebrations all across Vermont.
VERMONT WEDDING PLANNER
Hiring Katie for our big day was easily one of the best decisions we made. I was one of those brides that didn't think I needed a wedding planner/event coordinator - let me tell you - you NEED Katie. Anytime you are unsure about something, she is right there to hear you out. Need to vent about planning? (trust me you will need to several times) - Katie will listen and make time for you. The bridesmaids and groomsmen adored Katie, our parents praised her as a godsend; I don't know what we would have done without her. We've never had the pleasure of meeting someone so compassionate about their work and making other peoples dreams come true - on one of the biggest days of their lives.
