About Kelsey

LEAD DESIGNER, PLANNER & OWNER

I launched my wedding planning business in 2014 in the charming town of Greenwich, CT, but soon after, I returned to San Diego, CA, splitting my time between coasts while planning dream weddings across the country. Eventually, my husband and I made our way to Franklin, TN, where we’re now in the process of renovating a cozy home and embracing all that Music City has to offer. Franklin’s prime location puts us in the heart of some of the Southeast’s most prestigious wedding venues, with quick access to any destination. 

When I’m not meticulously crafting unforgettable weddings, you’ll find me spending time with my labradoodle, Luna, exploring new corners of the globe (I’ve traveled to 41 countries and counting!), dreaming up home projects for my talented husband, and indulging in the search for the perfect glass of sangria.

My passion for what I do is unparalleled. Above all, I remain deeply committed to celebrating love in all its forms and celebrating life's biggest milestones.

The Team

 

 We make this whole wedding planning thing fun!

we’re obsessed with all things love!

Kelsey started by working at a venue, where she coordinated over 150 weddings + events. She got her experience working on the catering side of things but always knew that design was her passion. She also wanted to have a more manageable load of clients, so she could really focus on their wedding + get to know them. Become friends with them. She now focuses only on Full Planning clients and takes on a limited number of weddings each year, to assure that no detail is missed and her clients get the full KRD experience.

Our team has the biggest hearts. Seriously, we’re the luckiest to have the team that we do. They come with a background in weddings/events and a huge passion for events that make an impact. They each have their own unique style, and approach their area of expertise with a high level of professionalism and just the right amount of fun! They are logistics gurus and have insane attention to detail. Our clients are lucky to work alongside them!
