Founder & Lead Planner
It’s a love story. Steamboat Springs became home in 2019 when I moved to my now-husband’s hometown. What began as planning weddings for friends — designing details, building timelines, and coordinating day-of — grew into a passion for creating meaningful, personalized experiences. From custom graphics to floral design, those early celebrations evolved into creative collaboration with Alex Mathisen of SoulSpark Events, whose mentorship helped shape the hands-on, detail-driven approach I bring to Evergold Events Collective.
As both a former bride in this valley and now a planner serving Steamboat and beyond, I know how important it is to have someone who truly gets it. My work is rooted in intentionality, creativity, and connection, and I’m honored to work alongside a talented team to bring thoughtful, beautiful celebrations to life. Whether you’re dreaming of a mountaintop elopement or a full wedding weekend, we’re here to help make it unforgettable.

Hiring Karina at Evergold Events was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, Karina stood out as incredibly organized, thoughtful, and genuinely...
invested in making our day meaningful. She didn’t just coordinate details—she understood our priorities, helped us articulate our vision, and guided us through the planning process in a way that felt calm, clear, and completely manageable. I wanted that cozy, intimate, at-home wedding feel, and I felt like she truly understood our vision and had the tools and experience to execute that.
Her communication is exceptional. She is consistently responsive, always prepared with clear timelines and next steps. Any time we had a question, she already had an answer — and often backup solutions. She worked seamlessly with all of our vendors and made sure every person involved felt aligned and supported. Hosting an at-home wedding was challenging -its a new venue for vendors, you have to bring EVERYTHING in, and the guest flow is so crucial. Karina helped coordinate all of this, with a plan of action and thoughtfulness that really shone through.
On the day of the wedding, Karina was truly the reason everything flowed effortlessly. We didn’t have to think about a single detail — she handled everything quietly, smoothly, and with so much grace. Because of her, we actually got to relax and be present with our loved ones!!
Karina is reliable, kind, detail-oriented, and incredibly talented at what she does. If you’re looking for someone you can trust completely to bring your vision to life while taking care of every detail behind the scenes, she is the one. Truly the best planner you can hire!

Karina was truly the best last-minute decision I could have ever made for my wedding day!
We chose to have a small, intimate wedding with immediate family and a few close friends, ...
so I kept telling myself it wouldn’t be too much to handle. But the truth is — no matter how “small” a wedding is, there are still so many moving parts and people to coordinate.
About two weeks out, my mom and I realized that we were both going to be far too busy setting up, keeping things on schedule, and managing cleanup to actually enjoy the day.
Even with such short notice, Karina jumped right in and took control with complete professionalism and calm. She immediately reached out to all our vendors, confirmed every detail, and made sure everyone was on the same page. She took the time to truly understand my vision, priorities, and even our family dynamics so she could help the day run smoothly. Karina thought of things I hadn’t even considered and helped me focus on what really mattered most.
By the time our wedding day arrived, every detail was handled. I was able to be present and actually enjoy it — something I didn’t think would be possible two weeks earlier.
If you’re on the fence about hiring a coordinator take this as your sign to call Karina. She was an absolute lifesaver and turned what could have been a stressful day into a seamless, joy-filled celebration.
