Meet your wedding planner.
Hey, I’m Katie - founder of The Maples Estate and your full service wedding planner.
What makes me feel most alive?
Creating experiences that feel deeply personal, beautifully intentional, and completely true to the people at the center of them. I design weddings at The Maples Estate that are immersive, elevated, and unmistakably yours—gatherings that bring everyone into a moment they’ll never forget.
As a planner born outside the ballroom and stuffy hotel restaurant, I am never afraid to create something new, to step beyond the lines and build a world that pulls on your heartstrings where you can come alive and celebrate as your true authentic selves.
Imagine sharing in that experience with your loved ones. Guests that are not there to simply fill a seat at the table, but to experience your love and revel in the moment alongside you.
Let your wildest dreams escape you, allow them to become your reality.
