WHAT WE DO
Escapes Event Planning & Catering is a full-service event planning and design firm that produces unforgettable gatherings of all types, including weddings, social events, brand launch parties, retreats, editorial shoots, pop-up shops, and private dinners. Known for her elevated and ethereal designs, owner Dena Knapp works directly with clients on every aspect of each event, from concept to completion. She specializes in designing environments that reflect the goal of the event and the personality of the client; the entire experience from the moment you enter is curated and planned. Dena describes her overall perspective as “innovative luxury,” echoing her fresh vision for planning and designing events that is inspired by her extensive travel and her background in the marketing industry and backed by her experience in event planning and graphic design.
Escapes Event Planning & Catering takes on a limited number of events each year so that we focus our undivided attention on each client’s needs while delivering on every detail. We take the time to get to know our clients and their style and interests intimately. As a result, we are able to deliver the best designs, stationers, menus, finishes and integrate them exquisitely to achieve the best experience for our clients. We are based in the Kansas City Metro Area, but we aid in planning destination weddings as well. Please connect with Escapes Event Planning & Catering to learn how we can transform your event into the memorable experience you are imagining. We look forward to hearing from you!
