OUR STORY
A Passion for Planning
I have always loved planning, decorating and entertaining. In 2016 my daughter Shelby got engaged and that presented the perfect opportunity to launch EventFull Weddings. I had the time of my life planning their wedding and I bring that same level of fun, excitement and attention to detail to my clients.
At EFW we love every kind of wedding style but we gravitate towards a modern and contemporary aesthetic with a sense of luxury and romance. We enjoy working with moody colors mixed with rich fabrics and textures. Our favorite elements have to be flowers and tabletop decor. Both can easily elevate your event to the next level. Our favorite part of the day is when we sneak the couple away to view the reception space before guests enter. The look on their faces is always priceless. If you like what EventFull Weddings is all about, give us a call and let's get busy planning your dream wedding.

I was born and raised in Tampa, Florida. I met my husband on a train while visiting Chicago on a girls' trip. We commuted back and forth for years before he moved to Tampa and we got married at the Don Cesar in St. Petersburg. Together we love traveling both Internationally and within the US, dining out at all the hot spots and going to the movies. I am obsessed with anything British especially period films or series. I love everything about planning weddings but the best part is seeing the happiness and appreciation our client's have once they see everything come together.

"Karen and Shelby were an absolute must for our daughter's wedding! We did not have to worry about anything on an amazing day. They took care of all the vendors and created a perfect timeline for all involved. They set up the ballroom with all the decorations perfectly.
