Hi! I’m Kayla Cook

Hi! I’m Kayla, owner and lead planner of Kayla Cook Events. We are already excited you’re considering us, and we’d be honored to collaborate with you to design and manage the event you’re dreaming of.

As for me, it all began back in 2008 when I started my career coordinating weddings and events at the Golf Club at Newcastle. There I found my forte for design and love of events and weddings. The wedding world opened my eyes to new opportunities and I eventually transitioned into the wine industry. I began managing events all over the country for Seattle based, Precept Wine where I further grew my expertise and passion for event planning, travel and wine. In 2014, I left the wine industry and ventured into the Cannabis industry working for Leafly, an online cannabis resource. There I strengthen my skills in creating brand experiences, sponsorship negotiations, event design and production. I spent the next four years directing an events team, traveling and creating events all over the world from Los Angeles to Berlin, Germany.

In the midst of the corporate hustle, I launched Kayla Cook Events. My business started as a creative outlet and I initially thought of it as more of a hobby. It was only a few years before I realized I had an entrepreneurial side and a desire to leave the corporate world to operate Kayla Cook Events full time. Best decision I’ve ever made (well, except for marrying my best friend in 2018)! Today, my husband and I live in Kirkland, WA with our two boys, and energetic Australian Labradoodle. I like to keep a busy schedule and I’m usually either running between client meetings, designing our next project, or wrangling toddlers! I’m truly love living every day immersed my passion - creating beautiful events and working with people that inspire me.
