Our own Peggy Echols was thrilled to coordinate this event, which was stunning from start to finish!

“Working with Jen and Ryan, as well as with Jen’s parents Joan and Rich, was a true pleasure. Kaya is an absolutely perfect setting and the selections this couple made for their day were just right. I really enjoyed the balance of how warm and loving the event was, while feeling so natural and open in this expansive, pastoral setting! We even created a little intimate hideaway for the couple in Kaya’s Barrel Room so they could enjoy a few quiet moments together on their most special day! A big thank you to the entire staff at Kaya who are incredible event professionals!”
