Meet the Owner

Hi, I’m Caitlin, a born and raised small-town Kansan, who moved to the East Coast for a job and to get her fill of city life. I spent 10+ years as an event planner, seven+ of those in Washington DC. I’m very happy to be back in the Midwest in the state that I love with my husband.

Growing up, I loved to be creative, and I would put my own unique twists on everyday things. I made most of my own jewelry in high school, and almost all the gifts I gave. 

I found this love of creating again as I started planning events for myself and my loved ones. Baby showers, bridal showers, TV watch parties (RIP GOT), game day watch parties - you name it. I love picking out themes, and finding clever ways to tie in even the smallest detail to the bigger picture. My favorite thing in the world is hearing “Oh my gosh! You made this for me?! This is great!” I realized I could help give that to others, and so designwise kc was born.

I love creating and making events that are unique and special to the audience, whomever that may be. I am very excited to be doing something that brings me joy, and I hope it can bring you joy too.

Which all leads me to, how can I help you, design-wise?

Thanks for being here, and for reading this whole spiel. I look forward to connecting with you soon!

Caitlin
