Hey, howdy, hi — I’m Kate! If you love dogs, pickles, espresso, or the ocean, we already have something in common 👋🏼
Today is my bday, my favorite day to reintroduce myself to my little corner of the internet! I’m SO happy, thankful, + grateful for your support (pinch me) 🫶🏼 I have some fun updates I’ve been keeping secret (mostly because I don’t know an announcement date yet), but I can’t wait to share it all with you!!
Thank you for being here. :’)
With purpose,
Kate
Tears in my eyes as I type this 🥹 Purpose Under Palms is NOW BASED IN CHARLESTON!!!
What does that mean for you? No more travel fees for the Charleston area!! 🥳 A huge number of my weddings are here + I’m so grateful to finally be doing what I love in my favorite city!
This also means I’d love to take on MORE Charleston weddings! Tell your family, friends, your friends of friends, everyone you know, + your wedding planners!! 🎨🤩
What this means to me…
I’ve wanted to live here since I visited for the first time at 16. We’ve vacationed here every year since then, + it was always just a dream to one day call this place home in reality + not just in my heart.
In 2020, my husband + I decided we were tired of just wishing, then put every ounce of faith into chasing this dream.
So in 2021, we finally made the move! Unfortunately, things didn’t go as we had planned + we moved home just 5 months later.
God’s plan, not mine. An opportunity to dive all in on chasing my other dream, owning a business.
I continued to put my faith into His plan + only chose decisions that gave me peace, even though it was confusing at first.
We lived on one income while I built my business that didn’t actually exist yet. I filed the paperwork, cried some tears, almost went back to a 9-5, + built the business that I love so very much, with the help of the best clients EVER — aka YOU!!🥹
No words will ever be able to express how much your support means to me, whether I’ve been part of your special wedding day or if you’ve just shared some posts. I don’t take a single day for granted. Thank you, thank you, thank you for being here.
Now, let’s get some furniture in this house because I typed this on the floor! 🏡🥰🥹😭🫶🏼🌊

This is exactly what I pictured when I named my business “Purpose Under Palms” — doing what I love + living with purpose in the place I love most, right under the palm trees 🌴
I’m still on cloud nine from this past weekend’s double weddings in Charleston. Both recap videos coming this week! 🫶🏼

April :) The month flew by + I can’t believe it’s already MAY! Wrapped up some live wedding paintings from March, countless guest portraits, finally hung my gallery wall, my little nugget got a haircut (and a dental cleaning), saw a perfect sunset, had the sweetest couples, events with friends, + a little more in between!
So, so grateful. Excited for May — my birth month!! 🤭💃
