Jaimie
Carmichael
Owner & Lead Planner
Coffee is happiness, pizza is life. I'm a believer that laughter makes the world a better place and dogs make you live longer. I am lucky enough to be a mom to many and I intentionally order a vanilla latte at every new coffee shop I try, so I can compare (and judge) them properly.
I love rainy days spent disappearing into a good book, nature, singing, crocheting and gaming when time allows.

As a KC native, I believe in the power of yummy barbecue and a good sports game.
I’m a lover of all things music and I believe curating the roadtrip playlist is the most important task. Halloween lives in my heart year-round, Dr. Pepper is a necessity, and a good craft will heal your soul.I’m a movie fan through and through (bonus points for any rom-com or spooky movie) and my love language comes in the form of cats or a little ice cream treat.
Outside of weddings, you’ll find me at a concert or trying a new cocktail bar!

Dyer
Coordinator
I'm not just a wedding coordinator. I'm a mom, coffee lover, thrifting enthusiast, and a believer that the best moments in life are the ones we create with the people we love. I'm passionate about bringing people together, creating memorable experiences, and finding beauty in the little details.
When I'm not helping couples celebrate their love stories, you'll find me traveling, exploring new places, spending time with family and friends, enjoying live music, trying new recipes, playing games or soaking up the outdoors.
The start of a dream
I (Jaimie) never planned (pun intended) to be a business owner, but my soul ached to be a wedding planner. I tried so hard to get other planners to let me work for them, intern with them or just allow me some baby steps in the direction of weddings. After waiting, and waiting, no after no I finally decided I was done waiting. That redhead determination showed up and the next thing I knew, I was the proud owner of a wedding planning company. Wedding Elegance started in early June 2013 and has been helping couple's have the perfect start to their forever together since!
What makes us different....
professional and fun.
Weddings are something to celebrate, and celebrating should never feel like a chore. We focus heavily on being professional while also making sure you have fun throughout your planning journey. We joke. We laugh. We listen. And like a good wedding bestie should, we fight to make sure your wedding is how you want it and contractual promises are upheld by your vendor team.
one lead planner will be at every wedding.
assistants are determined based on the wedding needs.
We have a team of planners and assistants so no matter how many guests your wedding has, and no matter how much set up is needed, we are ready for it!
