Meet Karina, the tastemaker behind KC You There

As a wedding planner and designer featured as a Forbes trailblazing Latina, I am a multifaceted entrepreneur with a deep-seated passion for entertaining, travel, and all things beautiful. My affinity for style—both feminine and classic—guides my approach to creating ethereal celebrations that captivate and inspire. With notable features in Forbes, Martha Stewart Weddings, Brides, Veranda, and The New York Times, I bring a refined sensibility and fresh perspective to every event. Whether sharing wedding tips or curating a flawless design, my goal is to infuse each occasion with an elegance that is both timeless and uniquely personal. Having this outlet will provide me the ability to share what I love from weddings to interiors to style and entertaining. I’m so happy you’re here!
