About

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 took time and effort and tears and sleepless nights and overcoming cycles of doubt and almost giving up to achieve. No one told me that embarking on a journey of self discovery through the goal of small business ownership would be so dang tricky. I’ve mentioned this before, especially when people ask me why/how Kamea Events began (two years ago later this month! 🥳), but I didn’t go into this business knowing just how much creativity would be required - I began because I LOVE organizing & planning & endless to do lists. I simply didn’t identify with being creative. I mean, I have personal style & tastes that influence the way I style & design, but it took a lot of honing & developing. I remember all of the full-fledged panic attacks I’d have before all of my shoots and weddings, and I’d wonder why I ever started. Slowly, but surely, I chose to hold those doubt-filled thoughts captive and redirected with more affirming self-talk. Now, I’m more confident in my own abilities...but dang, it took SOME time. So all this to say that if you’re in that awkward season where you don’t believe in yourself - I believe in you. And you should believe in you, too. You’ll get there. You gotta embrace the process. (Dang, I swear I’m not usually this wordy) 😂 . . . . . #portlandweddingplanner #oregonweddingplanner #smallbusinessowner #smallbizowner #creativepreneur #fempreneur #ladyinbusiness #ladyinblack #womeninbusiness #collaborationovercompetition #communityovercompetition #bosslady #bossbabe #weddingvendor #motivation #portlandcreatives #pdxnow #kameaevents
