I’m a charismatic, sports playing, music listening, shoe shopping, coffee addict who is passionate about design, authenticity, reaching goals, and inspiring others.

I’m also the mama of Kensley, wife to Andy, and the owner of Kenda Kaye Designs & Events, LLC! And when I tell you that you’ve never met a productive, organized, or dedicated individual, you must know—

I mean it wholeheartedly!

I’m energetic and ambitious—a born visionary—constantly dreamin’ up new dreams and doing whatever it takes to bring them to life. The more impossible a project may seem, the most motivated I am to make it happen.

And while it’s not always easy for me to ask for support while achieving my own dreams, supporting others in accomplishing their own is my JAM!

hi y’all! i’m kenda—


becoming a wedding designer…

I’ve always cared about the appearance of things. Not necessarily in terms of the physical appearance of an individual. Nor do I care about it in a vain manner that says, “to be beautiful something must meet this specific criteria.” I also do not believe that someone or something’s appearance hold’s it’s entire worth.

When I think of appearance, I think of bringing the inside, out.

Every single person has a soul, an essence, a spirit, a vibe, a self, or whatever you would like to call it. One that is shaped by their story, their experiences, and their personality. And if what is presented on the outside doesn’t match what exists on the inside, there are a lot of negative consequences. Whether its your home life, a job, or a relationship, if you are forced to live inauthentically, you will start to feel like a caged tiger. You will experience stress, tension, anxiety, depression, Feeling like the authentic you is not capable of being appreciated, loved or valued. Feeling like who you actually are isn’t good enough.

The reason this matters in wedding planning is because in a relationship, when two people—with their own individual selves— come together, a third “essence,” “spirit,” “vibe,” or what not, is born. This one is formed by your story as individuals, and as a couple, both of your personalities, both of your experiences, both of your likes and dislikes. Your relationship has its own unique “self.” And that unique self, that third thing is what a wedding is celebrating.

A wedding is an outward demonstration of what is born when you and your partner come together. 

But, as I learned in my own wedding planning, this isn’t always as easy as it seems. Sometimes we allow ourselves to be too heavily influenced by the opinions of others. Sometimes we have a million wedding style ideas (thanks Pinterest!) and can’t seem to narrow down which one we want. And sometimes each partner holds an opposing opinions. Or maybe you and your partner both love Marvel, Harry Potter, or Halloween and you aren’t sure how to incorporate it into your day without it being cheesy. I assure you, no matter what your struggle is, I can help you solve it.

I help couples focus on who they are and what the want. I take the wedding of their dreams and bring it to life. Or, I help them narrow down what that even looks like. And then, I roll up my sleeves and help you every step of the way. Learn more about what that looks like by clicking here.

Especially those you’ll be spending lots of time with. Its more than business, it’s a friendship— a partnership— kind of thing.
