MEET YOUR TEAM
Katrina Anderson
Hey Everyone, I am a Day of Coordinator with Deneans Events and Designs.
More about Katrina
With over fifteen years of experience in administration and organizational development, I am attentive to order, detail, and execution. Oddly enough, I also enjoy operating tools! Yes, power drills, saws, hammers, etc. I can organize and run your event or come by and hang your pictures, TV or lay your flooring. Weird right? But I enjoy every minute of it.
I’m a proud mother of two young-adults and my passion is simply helping others!

I picked up the bug for event planning in college while organizing and planning events for the student organizations I was involved with. Over time, I planned and coordinated weddings and events of friends and family members and I am extremely passionate about making someone’s special event the very best. I am meticulously organized and I have a keen eye for details.
I am a native of California, but now call Maryland home. I hold a bachelor’s degree from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and a Master of Public Affairs degree from the Lyndon B. Johnson (LBJ) School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas at Austin. I also completed wedding and event planning coursework at San Francisco State University, including a Foundations of Sustainable Event Planning course by the Green Meeting Industry Council.
I enjoy cooking, quilting, yoga, massages, and traveling and exploring more of the East Coast in my free time.

More about Jessica
I absolutely love the experience of helping couples create memorable moments. I have been planning weddings and events for close family and friends for over 10 years. It’s very important to me that my clients have a beautiful and organized wedding or event. I care about the details and the bigger picture as it all folds together to make one magical day, one that my clients will remember forever.
I love spending time with my family and friends. I enjoy entertaining, cooking, singing karaoke and crafting (all levels). I’ve done everything from custom wine glasses, staining my kitchen cabinets, installing backsplash and hardware to staining my deck. I consider myself handy and focused on the details.
I‘m elated to be a part of Denean’s Events and Designs and I can’t wait to create new memorable moments for you!
