Hello

## I'm Kelly. I plan weddings and events *with a whole lot of heart.*

I started this company in 2021 setting luxury picnics on beaches and in
vineyards across southern Oregon. Those picnics grew into a full event
company — hundreds of events later, I've curated and styled festivals,
business events, weddings, and plenty of intimate two-person picnics, and
I've learned every one of them is special and meaningful. Along the way I've
built deep experience in tablescape design, venue and event management, and
I even own a mobile bar.

I bring a fun, lighthearted, and professional approach to planning. Your day
should reflect you — and I want you to have fun planning it. I work with a
small team I couldn't do this without, and we'd love to meet you.

### The Rogue Valley, Bend, the coast — all of Oregon.

**The Rogue Valley is home.** We're based in Ashland and plan weddings and
events throughout Medford, Talent, Phoenix, Jacksonville, the Applegate, and
Grants Pass — the vineyards, ranches, and backyards we know street by
street, including [Naumes Suncrest Winery](https://kellyhammondevents.com/venues/naumes-suncrest-winery)
in Talent.

**The Oregon coast is our second home.** From Brookings and Gold Beach up
through Bandon, Florence, Newport, Lincoln City, and Cannon Beach, we've set
elopements and picnics on beaches most planners have never scouted — and
we're regulars at [Crook Point](https://kellyhammondevents.com/venues/crook-point) in Pistol River.

**And we travel.** Bend — where we work [Rock Springs Ranch](https://kellyhammondevents.com/venues/rock-springs-ranch) —
the Willamette Valley, wherever your dream wedding
is — a travel fee covers fuel, lodging, and travel time outside the greater
Medford, Ashland, and Grants Pass area, and we'll always do our best to work
within your budget. Coastal travel fees are listed on the
[elopements page](https://kellyhammondevents.com/elopements).
