Getting to Know the Team Behind Signature Event Planning
At Signature Event Planning, every celebration begins with connection. Before timelines, design decks, and floor plans, it starts with understanding our clients, their stories, and the team guiding them through the process. So today, we wanted to share a little more about us: Kat and Kristin, the duo behind the scenes making wedding days feel thoughtful, calm, and meaningful.
Our Wedding-Day Energy
Wedding days are long, emotional, and incredibly rewarding and we each bring our own rhythm to them. Kat is a proud night owl who thrives in the quiet focus of late-night planning, while Kristin is right there with her, leaning into the creative flow as the day unfolds.
Kat’s favorite wedding moment happens right after the ceremony, when the couple walks back down the aisle knowing they’re officially married. Their smiles say everything. Kristin, on the other hand, lives for the dance floor. There’s nothing better than seeing guests fully let go and celebrate.
When we step into a reception space, Kat’s eye goes straight to the lighting and florals, while Kristin instinctively notices symmetry and balance. Different perspectives, same goal: a space that feels intentional and welcoming.
The Details That Matter Most
We both believe the most meaningful weddings are deeply personal. Kat has a soft spot for timeless traditions like “something old, new, borrowed, and blue,” especially when couples make them their own. Kristin loves when couples bring personal elements into their ceremony. Those moments are always the most powerful.
Design-wise, Kat gravitates toward organic shapes, lush greenery, and greenhouse venues, while Kristin is inspired by historical architecture and layered textures. Our shared design non-negotiable? Every wedding must feel cohesive and above all, feel like you.
Behind the Scenes (and After)
On a wedding day, Kat averages about 20,000 steps, while Kristin clocks closer to 23,000. Kat is the checklist queen, making sure every detail lands exactly where it should, while Kristin is the creative dreamer, refining the look and feel as it all comes together.
Once teardown is complete, Kat’s first move is slipping into flip flops, and Kristin’s is drinking water. Both of us share the same post-event ritual: snacks in the car on the way home and a thoughtful recap the following week.
And what’s playing in the car afterward? Usually silence. Just a quiet moment to reflect on a day well done.
Outside of Weddings
When we’re not planning events, Kat unwinds with coffee and a nap on the couch (or a float at a saltwater spa), while Kristin prefers a hot tub and Chinese food. Kat finds joy in making fairy wings and crowns, and Kristin channels her creativity through interior design.
Kat feels instantly calm with Hozier music and coffee, while Kristin finds peace in having a business partner she can truly rely on. Outside of events, Kat and Kristin love to travel, and treasure time with their families.
Why It Works
What makes Signature Event Planning special isn’t just design or logistics — it’s balance. Kat’s love of structure paired with Kristin’s creative intuition allows us to support our couples fully, from the first conversation to the final send-off.
We’re so grateful to do this work together and even more grateful for the couples who trust us with their days.
