Event Planner Spotlight: Kellie with Rustic Elegance
We have Kellie, the owner of Rustic Elegance on our Preferred Vendor list and we are thrilled to share!
The inspiration that created Rustic Elegance
“After spending 10 years in graphic design, I realized I was ready for a career that allowed me to work more closely with people and create meaningful experiences. Throughout high school and college, I worked at some incredible private clubs, where I fell in love with the energy and excitement of weddings and special events.”
“Rustic Elegance has grown into an incredible team that shares that same passion for serving others, anticipating every detail, and allowing our couples to truly relax and enjoy one of the best days of their lives.”
A little bit about Kellie
“My mom was who encouraged me to combine my passion for events, the outdoors, and my love of organization into a business of my own. I took her advice, and started Rustic Elegance. Looking back, it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”
“I love bringing people together and creating celebrations that couples will remember for a lifetime.”

the uniqueness of rustic elegance
“Our approach is all about creating a calm, organized, and fun experience. We believe every couple (and their families), deserves to be fully present on their wedding day, so we handle the timeline, logistics, vendors, and the unexpected behind the scenes things that come up. We truly become an extension of our couples’ family, and that’s what makes the experience so special.”
hot take: sweetheart table or head table
“Sweetheart table, every time!”
“Couples rarely get a chance to slow down together on their wedding day. Even if it’s just for a few minutes during dinner, having that quiet moment together is something they’ll remember forever.”
