We value the long-lasting relationships that motivate planning and throwing a memorable soiree; the marriages that grow deeper after the wedding and the friendships that continue after the party. We take care of those details so you can focus on who matters most in your life.

Take a gander at some of the weddings, styled shoots, and other parties we've thrown!

Black-Pearl-kamea_events_wedding_planner_portland-026.jpg

For any occasion that requires planning, coordinating, and styling, we are on it!

Let's get up close & personal; meet the human behind it all. Learn more about Dorotheea.

When you partner with Kamea Events, you get so much more than a wedding planner & coordinator. Not only do you gain a teammate who’s got your back, but you get one who’s been there and understands that your engagement season can be one of the most exciting ones in your life! You gain more time to focus on your fiancé, more time to continue dating your future spouse, and more time to be present.

The engagement period flies by in the blink of an eye, so pass along the mental and physical stress of planning the most important party of your life to us. Handing over the reins of figuring out the details and logistics lets you be able to just sit back and enjoy the ride. We can’t wait to be there on your wedding day, after all is said and done, watching you and your new spouse have the time of your life along your closest friends and family.

From Wedding Day Management to Full Service Planning - we offer a wide variety of packages to fit your budget. Whether you’re local to Portland (like us!) and have dreamed of having your wedding in our beloved Pacific Northwest, or maybe you’re venturing somewhere else on our globe, we’d love to meet you there.

This tablescape is very fitting for such a moody day 😌 I know summer ain’t over yet, but....I’m so ready for more rainy, cozy days like we’re having right now. I even looked at my sweaters extra longingly today - soon, my darlings, soon.

I love designing & including a good “introvert corner” at every event. If you’re anything like me, after too much small talk, you’re probably searching for a comfy place to retreat & relax - that’s why lounges at weddings are the best! Whether your toes are aching from dancing too hard or you just want to sit back to enjoy people-watching, I recommend investing in some cozy pieces - like these from @vintagemeetsmodern which we nestled perfectly under this ceremony install during cocktail hour & reception. Also - yes. We did use a photography studio as a venue 😌 The lighting was obviously perfect all throughout.

This secluded, private ceremony was filled with sweet words & moments, as well as balanced with jokes! It was an honor to design & witness it.

Just look at the romance here 😍 Soft, sheer fabrics on dreamy crossback chairs amp up the elegance level to 100. I’d argue that chairs make or break the overall design - so if you can invest in only ONE thing, make it the seating! Our eyes are drawn to them first at any ceremony or reception above the other details.

Teamwork makes the dream work! We fully believe that it takes the “whole village” of vendors to make your wedding a success. It starts with choosing the wedding planner that’s right FOR YOU - even if that doesn’t end up being us. The trust that is required to be built at such a quick rate is hard to be given to just anyone, so we always encourage our potential clients to meet the planners they are interviewing to make sure their approach and personality is the best fit for them. As you can see, opting for our team will be filled with no shortage of fun, humor, and plenty of hard work (but, like, behind the scenes because that’s obviously not as aesthetically pleasing to be desired in a photo here 🤪). You’ll know we’re the right team for you because you also value marriage beyond the wedding day, personal & thoughtfully planned moments throughout the course of your day that encourage you to be as present as possible, and of course - a good time that’s sure to be pleasing to the eye 😉 Can’t wait to hear from you - let’s get you married.

Here to bless your feed with these hot hot hotties & the most magical video ✨ Midweek wedding has thrown me off - I conked out on the couch at 8pm last night like the grandma I am, and I almost forgot it’s Friday! Tomorrow, we’re trading wedding attire for muddy gym clothes as we have a wedding-free weekend to gallivant through the Spartan Race. Will I see any of you there / who’s done one in the past??

Clean lines and modern details compliment this classic hand-lettered invitation suite. Paper goods add another level of personalization to every event - they’re also the first impression your guests will get of your style. Investing in customized pieces from local stationers is so worth it when it comes to telling your story.

My favorite detail at every wedding is the napkin texture/fold. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Is that weird? There are just so many ways to choose which direction to go with the napkins that I feel they can easily change the tone of the entire design. What’s your favorite wedding detail?

These roasty days of summer make me long for days spent poolside - if only it looked this good when I’m doing it 🤪
