Before falling in love with wedding planning,
I spent a decade producing music videos and TV commercials.

Now, I use those same chaos-coordination skills
honed on Hollywood sets to plan + produce big day magic.

Blending professionalism with playfulness, I'll ensure you love the sh*t out of this entire process.

but it's about more than just a stress-free wedding

It's about true enjoyment...
from choosing the venue to saying 

party with a plan

I DO.

let's get started

meet katie

I'll connect you with high-value, professionally-vetted options to satisfy both your dreams *and* your budget. The only thing left for you to do is relax and be fully present on this journey.


 

With a decade of experience in the SoCal
wedding scene, I’ve already done the hard
part of sourcing the best, most reliable vendors and venues.

 

I’m here to release you from the overwhelm + stressful societal expectations. They're not invited. Kiss 'em goodbye.


 

this experience

should be fun

yes, the whole damn thing.

sign me up

I specialize in full-service planning and offer tiered services to fit your needs and budget. I also offer a limited number of wedding management packages for those who've already locked in vendors and are
looking for someone to execute the details.

 As your planning partner, I prefer to join you right from the start to secure the best venues + vendors and deliver the greatest value. But I’m also happy to jump in at any stage of the planning process.

I’d love to take care of the details so you can enjoy every delicious moment. There aren’t any do-overs, so let’s do it right.

Katie was so amazing to work with! She is thoughtful, energetic, organized, and positive. She really went above and beyond to make sure everything was just the way we wanted it, and every step of the journey was made easier with her on board.

terra f.

katie was the best money we spent! I didn't worry about anything and had the wedding of my dreams. She was on top of every detail, from the biggest to the smallest. She was friendly, professional and flexible. There is no false advertising here, my day was truly the BEST DAY EVER! Hire her!

Katie, my Lady… You are fucking amazing.
I’ve worked with many planners in my daY,
And you are one-of-a-kind AWESOME.
Thank you for all that you do.

kelsie p.

Katie had such a positive attitude from start to finish. it can be daunting to find wedding professionals who have experience with LGBTQ+ couples, and Katie was nothing but accepting, professional, and so in love with our love. Our wedding was perfect, and so much of that is due to Katie's careful coordination and support.

jovi s.

Katie is incredible at what she does...all the while, doing it with the personality of your favorite BFF. The comfort level you have with the wedding vendors you choose is key and Katie doesn't disappoint. Her attention to detail and ability to pull everything together left us with nothing to do but...have the BEST DAY EVER!

chrissy r. 

We knew immediately after meeting Katie that she was the one for us. We hired her for full-service planning and it was the BEST decision. She understood our vision, and her guidance and insight took our wedding from good to spectacular. Katie possesses amazing attention to detail, great communication skills + impeccable taste. Katie handled EVERYTHING. She is magical and always has a smile on her face.

Dalia G.

Katie was incredible to work with and brought our dream wedding to life. All of her vendor recommendations were top notch and our event was literal perfection as a result. She stays on top of every detail, especially the ones you would never think of. Do yourself a favor and work with Katie! 

PATTI N.

I will be eternally grateful for all that you gave - smarts, guidance, creativity, energy, nudges, laughter and fun. THE KEY TO GOOD MANAGEMENT IS TO SURROUND YOURSELF WITH GOOD PEOPLE AND LET THEM DO THEIR THING. IT WAS CLEAR TO ME EARLY ON WE HAD DONE JUST THAT. EVERYTHING FELL INTO PLACE FOR US. No hiccup...just fun and love.

Becca M.

Words cannot begin to describe how amazing my experience with BDELA was. Katie made me so calm. She completely took my stress away and made every detail perfect. I am forever grateful to this company who took the guesswork out of wedding planning and made my wedding more beautiful than I could have imagined. Seriously, I am in awe of what you did. I couldn't recommend you more.

WE HAVE OOZED OVER AND OVER AGAIN ABOUT HOW PERFECT EVERYTHING WAS. THANK GOD YOU WERE AT THE HELM AND NOT ME. WE FELT SO LOVED THAT NIGHT, A GIFT WE DON'T ALL GET, AND YOU WERE OUR CONDUCTOR. IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT!
