Hi! I am so excited you stopped by!

I am Casey Kane the Owner and Head Event Planner for Bright Designs. Born and raised in the Midwest I graduated from the University of Iowa (Go Hawks!) in 2012 and immediately began working for a non-profit where I planned several large events. This is where I found my love and passion for all things design and planning. I married the love of my life in September 2013, and it was The Best Day Ever. It was the final nudge I needed to take a leap of faith and create Bright Designs so that every couple could experience the same joy and happiness my husband Matt and I had on our big day.

I have been guiding Brides through the planning process for the past ten years and I thrive off of creating a one of a kind design for each individual client. From our initial consultation to the day of execution I am so excited to help you celebrate the future with your favorite person by your side. I can’t wait to hear from you!

xoxo, Casey Kane

 

I am Matt, husband and sidekick to Casey Kane. I met Casey in high school where we began dating and then attended the University of Iowa graduating in 2012 with a degree in Interdepartmental Studies and Entrepreneurial Management.

One of the unique things about Bright DeSigns is that we are a husband and wife team who are dedicated to making your event a one of a kind, fun, and unique experience. Often times you will find me unloading a trailer, hanging lights, and pretty much anything Casey needs me to do (haha). I look forward to meeting you throughout the planning process and executing a flawless event for you. 

Cheers, Matt

Best Event Team Ever: Jaw-Dropping Wedding Brought to Life

From our first meeting, my fiancé and I knew the Bright DeSigns team was precisely what we needed: knowledgeable, professional, and willing to go above and beyond for our wedding. The entire planning process was completely stress-free due to their organizational skills, and our dream for a modern, classic, and elegant design came together beautifully because of their hard work. Not only were we blown away, but our families and guests also felt the shock and awe. "Perfection. Magically. Absolutely Stunning. Beautiful."
Hiring the Bright DeSigns team was the best money we could have ever spent for our wedding - they killed it! Would happily ugly cry, again and again, to relive the reception reveal!

Best team ever!

Wow, talk about a dream team! To anyone who is engaged, you NEED to book with Bright Designs. I knew I wanted Casey + her team as my wedding planner before I even got engaged. Casey was extremely knowledgeable and went above & beyond with every detail. Casey is professional, very patient and kept everything at minimal stress for me, I could really go on and on. From the very first meeting, I knew she would bring my design to life; edgy & romantic and a lot of black. The team really did exceed my expectations, Jason even cried during the reveal. My wedding wouldn’t have been the same with Casey & her team, it was definitely worth every penny. I cannot say enough about Bright DeSigns!!!

The Fairytale Creators 

It seems truly impossible to put into words what Casey and Matt, Bright Designs, did for our wedding day. It was an absolute dream and more! 
From the very first conversation with Casey after we had gotten engaged to our first sit down to go over what our vision was, Casey made us feel so special and radiates the happiness you want on your wedding day. Every single detail was thought of and designed with perfection! Casey teams up with the very best local vendors and also dreams up options available nationwide. Nothing was overlooked! Weddings can quickly become overwhelming and deciding on the best/most impactful details is what makes Bright Designs unmatched. They are honest, thoughtful, patient and so professional about everything and made the day so easy. The day off was a dream! My husband and I often found ourselves looking at each other and looking around our space in awe of how amazing it all was. We often said “how did we get so lucky to have Casey and Matt?!”, and that’s the truth. To work with them, will make any couple the lucky ones! We love Bright Designs and know without hesitation, they made our day a fairytale we will forever remember.
