Kelsy Green

I am a Raleigh girl, born and raised! I love calling Raleigh home, but I also enjoy exploring new places all over the world. I graduated from North Carolina State University (Go Wolfpack!) and shortly after married the love of my life - Jason. We are high school sweethearts and have enjoyed so many years together. 

I started working with C and D Events as an intern while I was in college thanks to Becca Taylor! After graduating from college I transitioned to a lead planner. Planning just about anything is my favorite thing to do. Weddings are a fun and creative outlet for me. I thrive off of planning and organization, so I find great joy in making sure all those small details are well executed on the day of your wedding! My desire is to make your dream wedding come true!

When I’m not planning weddings, I enjoy eating a good meal (seriously - just ask anyone that knows me I am mildly obsessed with delicious food). I also enjoy renovating my house inside and out. Think real life Fixer Upper. I spend a lot of time in my garden channeling my inner old lady. There’s nothing like growing fresh fruits and vegetables in your own backyard. Basically anything that gets me outside when the weather is nice I am down for!

My Favorite Venues in the Triangle are The Merrimon-Wynne House, The Bradford and The Parlour at Manns Chapel.

WHAT KELSY’S CLIENTS SAY —

“Oh my goodness, I could go on and on and on about how amazing Kelsy was. I was an emotional and worried and stressed bride in the weeks leading up to my wedding and I cannot express how much Kelsy calmed my nerves. I never felt like a burden and I always felt like I could express every little concern that I had. I truly felt like I had a friend planning my wedding. On the day of my wedding, I was stress free and able to focus on being in the moment because I knew that every single detail was taken care of. I am so glad that I made the decision to hire Kelsy and would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding!”
— Carolyn

I cannot wait to make your dream wedding a reality!
