The KTE Journal

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. This couple, who have been sweethearts since their college days, chose Vidanta, a resort which Missy’s family frequented […]

Reflecting on the past year always leaves me feeling grateful yet motivated. Grateful for all that the year has brought and for my amazing community, yet eager for a fresh calendar, unbelievable clients, and the opportunity for our team to create and design with a new lens in focus. Speaking of reminiscing, last year, the […]

With fall coming to an end and winter around the corner, the brisk air has the KTE team reminiscing on our whirlwind of summer weddings. Rewinding back to the first wedding of our 2022 summer season, we were fortunate enough to plan a whimsical garden wedding for a very special couple, KelCee and Russell. We […]

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 […]

The holidays this year, no doubt, are going to be a little different. But at the same time, there has never been a better year to celebrate one another and truly hold your loved ones closer than ever, whether physically or mentally. But now that December draws closer, the thoughts of gifts and get-togethers are […]

It’s wild how fast 2020 went from the old sense of normalcy to complete confusion and uncertainty.
