i'm kaitie and planning weddings full-time is my .

thing

Helping couples just like you take the overwhelm out of wedding planning is where I thrive. When it comes to planning your wedding, you want to know you’re securing vendors who are reliable and will bring their A-game. But, if you haven’t ever planned a wedding before, how do you go about feeling secure in the choices you’re making?

This is where the KGW Team and I have your back. We’ll take the guesswork out of the entire planning process. Together we’ll plan a wedding day that is not only well-executed, but thoughtfully planned, infusing your style and your love story into the all the pretty details.

"Kaitie and her team will make you feel at ease and you will trust the process... Forever grateful for this team!"

Browsing the aisles of Hobby Lobby for things I don't really need. Playing Play-Doy at the kitchen table with Darcy. Reading Magic Treehouse books with Lincoln. Sitting on the dock at my parents lake house. Playing a game of Spades with family. Snuggled up on the couch with Ryan, my high school sweetheart, watching some tv show he'll get bored with midway through.

here's where you can find me when I'm not at a wedding

Caroline is an alum of A-State and teacher. She married her husband in October of 2021 at Rusty Tractor Vineyards. It was a small world moment when she joined the KGW team because Kaitie and Caroline actually went to the same church - just in different Sunday School classes. Caroline loves the wedding industry, but what she loves even more is the title "Aunt," spoiling her niece and nephew.

Nicole or Gammel, as the KGW Team refers to her as, has truly made our team feel so complete. An epitome of a sweet-spirit, Gammel's love for helping people just comes so natural. In her spare time you can find her playing golf, watching sports, or sitting outside enjoying the Arkansas weather. She loves to travel, spend time with her church family, and making memories with her family and friends.
