About

CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement! This is one of the most exciting times in your life. Along with the excitement comes making decisions. A lot of them. More than you ever dreamt there would be.

Your decision as to who will officiate and coordinate your ceremony is one of the first and most important you will make. As an officiant, it’s my job to guide you through the most important moments in your life. We are not all equal. We vary in style, presentation, delivery, and philosophy. Make sure you choose someone you have a connection with and, most importantly, someone you trust.

Whether your ceremony is an intimate affair for two or it’s a large ceremony with all of your friends and family, it should be designed to reflect your personalities, your wants, needs and your unique partnership. It should enhance your special love story. I specialize in semi-religious, interfaith, non-religious, second marriages, vow renewals, commitment ceremonies, and ceremonies involving blending of families with children.

I proudly serve couples in Sanibel, Captiva, Punta Gorda, Fort Myers, and Naples and throughout Southwest Florida. You should have your wedding where you heart is and it should be the wedding of your dreams.

My name is on my company and I love what “I do”! Let’s make YOUR day the perfect start to your happily ever after! ~Kari

Mother of the Bride

This was a Dream-Come-True wedding. It couldn't have been any better! Kari is the most wonderful, caring and professional wedding planner I have ever met. She truly went above and beyond in an unbelievably short amount of time (due to the groom's military commitment) to create a ceremony that was just beautiful, thoughtful, sweet, romantic and more than we ever dreamt of! I was certain she was channeling Walt D, himself, with the magic she was making happen! From exquisitely beautiful tropical surroundings to the comfort of the seaside, fully furnished condos delightfully decorated in Sanibel Island theme, nothing lacks perfection! Kari and her staff are utterly amazing, the best!

Kari was super helpful and stayed in contact with my husband and i throughout the whole process.

Kari is very knowledgeable of her job and field and we couldn't have asked for a better person to help us plan our wedding.
