about me
Kayli McGee, Wedding Planner
I am a MN based wedding planner! Growing up in MN, I am a midwestern girl through and through. I have a pup named Sonny and a wonderfully supportive partner. My hobbies spread far and wide from sewing and crochet, to cooking and reading, all the way to business development and, of course, being a WEDDING PLANNER!
Of course I love the beauty and excitement of weddings, but what I absolutely adore is the organization, design, and coordination that goes into the big day. Some call me crazy, but nothing is better than creating a timeline and executing it flawlessly! All of that planning, tracking, booking, managing, coordinating, timing, and big picture thinking that goes into planning is the stuff that makes newlyweds go “I can’t wait for it to just be over” is what I live for!
my experience
Over 10 years of industry experience
Dresses & Suits
From selling, measuring, fitting, and altering, to designing, sourcing, and marketing, I have done it all!
Design
Design is important for your wedding, specifically cohesive design! I’ve done invites, signage, decor, and more. In-house design saves hundreds!
Day of Coordinating
Whether it is helping set up, usher your guests, or rally the wedding parties, I am your gal! I have done it all, even served guests waters with venue staff. I gotchu.
Vendor Management
Vendor Management is crucial for a stress free day! I have always ensured photographers, caterers, venues, and DJs are all on the same page.
My specialties
I have a few things that make me extra special…
My Connections
Since 2013, I have worked for and with so many different wedding industry companies. From suits/tuxedos, to dresses, to venues, and more, I bring a network of connections to the table. I can provide you insight to how those companies can work, help facilitate communication, and even provide some extra deals too!
Customization Options
One of the coolest aspects of Green Dress Planning is the customization opportunity. I want my clients to only pay for what they need. So if a package just isn’t perfect, we can customize one suited just for you! This is especially great for those DIY couples who have the handle on most things, but want a little extra help here and there. Also a really great budget friendly option!
Communication Style
My communication style is extra special. I am direct, timely, and available! I respond to emails and texts daily and proactivley answer questions beyond what you asked. The day of the wedding, I am professional, relateable, and commanding. I love to have fun and ensure the vibe is right but also ensure everything goes as planned. Contact me anytime!
Niche Expertise
I have a lot of exposure experience in the wedding world, but I also have a lot of niche expertise, wedding party apparel being one of the nearest-and-dearest. I have sold, altered, rented, designed, and sourced suits, tuxedos, bridal gowns, bridesmaid gowns, and so much more. There is never a wardrobe malfunction at a Green Dress wedding! Plus I have extensive experience in meeting and event facilitation. This provides me the skills to be able to clearly engage large groups and maintain strict agendas with total buy-in from all involved.
