A Better Way to Plan a Wedding

The inspiration behind Eventfully Designed stemmed from personal experience. While planning her own wedding, owner and founder Katelynn Richins quickly discovered just how exhausting and frustrating navigating the wedding industry could be. Vendors were slow to respond—if they responded at all —and it often took weeks to receive proposals from wedding planners. The lack of transparency, communication, and clarity turned what should have been an exciting season into an overwhelming one.

She knew there had to be a better way.

That experience became the foundation of Eventfully Designed. Katelynn set out to create a wedding planning company in Dallas that does the exact opposite of what she encountered as a bride, one rooted in prompt communication, honesty, efficiency, and thoughtful guidance from the very first inquiry.

Best of Zola 2024, 2025, 2026

Katelynn and Bishop made my wedding stress free and executed everything perfectly and professionally. I did the partial wedding planning and guided me through my year long engagement with recommendations and always quick to respond. Month of she took over everything and made me able to enjoy the time leading up to my wedding and my big day!

Our wedding was days after a snowstorm and she still was able to pull it all off and reassure every step. Eventfully Designed also did all our florals and decor rentals and it was like she took what was in my brain and made it a reality. With a reasonable price. If you are looking for a planner she is your girl – you won’t be disappointed! I was so happy to have had Katelynn and her team, and created the most beautiful florals and bouquets!

Katelynn and Bishop were on site for my wedding day, and coordinated it flawlessly!

“They did an excellent job of providing resources to make sure everything was taken care of for the day. I included decoration set up/take down services with their coordination and it made the day so easy- my family and I were fully able to relax and enjoy the day while they set up. I had the most PERFECT wedding day- I’m sure things went wrong along the way, but I never even found out about it because the eventfully designed team took care of it. They are so kind and I owe them a huge thanks for making my day go so smoothly!”
