"Karissa and Kayla are two of the hardest working women in the wedding planning business. My daughter was married at our home on October 14, 2023. The wedding was 16 months in the making as we had many events, venues, crazy food requests, musical acts,...the list went on and on. Every request was handled with honesty, professionalism and execution. The team KPE assembled was amazing, Monterey county is small yet somehow Karissa has a team of vendors who love to work with her and execute flawlessly.
The weekend was a fantastic. Our daughter and her now husband smiled and laughed the whole way through. KPE created the wedding of their dreams. I will leave you with one thought "listen to Karissa..she knows"

An absolute must pick

Karissa and her team brought our event to life. They are the most thoughtful, attentive, fun, and wonderful team that I could have ever imagined working with. We had the pleasure of planning with them for a year and a half and from start to finish they brought their A-game. If you are getting married in Carmel/Monterey/Santa Cruz, I cannot recommend this team enough. They accommodated every idea we had and brought the best and the brightest venders to help make our day a success.

Dream team

Karissa and Kayla are just salt of the earth people that you want in your life, and it just so happens that they are phenomenal at their job. They care deeply; they strive relentlessly to represent you as a couple and execute to perfection; they are always there for you. Karissa is the lead, with whom you'll interact the most; she's the creative, fun, warm point-person (and owner, with years of experience), who has an endless rolodex of vendors to meet your every desire. No idea is too out of the box. Kayla is the behind-the-scenes ninja who is attuned to every single detail. Also, she is the most kind, caring soul. My wife and I cannot recommend this team more highly. So much love!
