The KTE Journal

As we wind down the beautiful summer season, we’re tying a bow on our events until October, when we head to Southern California to produce for our east coast client, Kate and Derek. In the interim, it’s venue scouting and site visits for our 2024 clients, and all of our pre-production timeline planning. It’s easy […]

Amidst the breathtaking landscape of Oregon, Oakwood Gardens served as the perfect picturesque oasis for Maud and Nick’s wedding inspired by the gardens of Monet. Surrounded by lush shrubbery, blooming flowers, and towering trees, the couple and their guests were transported into a storybook realm. Due to Oregon’s historically rainy springs we ensured that we […]

As the Spring showers bring forth fresh blooms, it’s evident that the cold grip of winter has loosened, and the warm embrace of Spring has finally arrived. Everyone eagerly awaits the chance to venture outside, dust off their barbecues, and relish the transition into summer. While May brings this sense of awakening for us in […]

In January, after only a few weeks into the new year, the KTE team headed off to Puerto Vallarta to soak up some much-needed sunshine and to celebrate the union of our lovely clients, Missy and Trey.

It feels surreal to be writing this blog, and after having a couple of months to let it really soak in, I couldn’t be more excited to share our story with you. It was barely 6:00 in the morning on Saturday, June 26th when I started to wake because J.R. was tossing and turning. At […]

Just as spring began to emerge here in the Pacific Northwest, we received a much-welcomed phone call. A doting husband asked us to throw his wife an intimate and memorable celebration dinner in their home to mark her 40th birthday. The sky was the limit on design, but there had to be good food and […]

2021 is here, and it really does feel like a breath of fresh hair for both my head and my heart, as I am sure many of you can relate. I have embraced it with every inch of my being, and feel as we head into Valentine’s Weekend, that we remind ourselves love really does […]
