Ever since I can remember, I have loved creating joyous experiences for others. Whether it was hosting dinner parties, banquets, non-profit events, or corporate events, I love being a part of the bigger picture that brings people together in purpose and in celebration.

Before starting KME, I gained over 10 years of experience planning a wide variety of celebrations, from trade shows and conferences, to non-profit events, as well as operations management. My love of the more personal and detailed side of the business is what inspired me to branch into the wedding industry and launch this wedding and event planning business. My goal is to provide each client with a personable yet professional experience.

When I’m not planning, you can find me with trying a new workout class, spending time with my doodle, Holly, or enjoying new restaurants with family and friends. 

I can’t wait to get to know you and hear all about your big day!


I'm Kandace, and I'm so glad you're here!

I used to be a wedding planner and have been working in events for the past 12 years so my expectations for a wedding planner were VERY high. When I met with Kandace I knew she was the one. She was a great listener, had a great sense of humor, and was very calm. 

Kandace gave me direction based on my budget and it was very helpful in booking vendors. She also has a great checklist for planning as well that was super helpful. On the day of the wedding, I was able to fully checkout and be a bride. She had everything handled and the timeline stayed on time the whole day.

Unfortunately, it rained on my wedding day so the ceremony and cocktail hour had to shift but she set up everything beautifully and I didn't need to worry at all!! I highly recommend booking Kandace, you won't regret it!
