Meet Your Planner

   Katy Baker comes from a family history of ministry that dates back over 200 years.  For those of you getting married, that means that her daddy drug her along to do weddings since she was a baby!  (And he's still a wedding officiate in Texas now.)

She took that logistical knowledge gained as a child to work in the motion picture and entertainment industries.  For seven years she worked for the Nevada Film Commission and successfully suggested locations used in such movies as Independence Day with Will Smith and The Bodyguard with Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston.  She had to know what location would fit a scripted scene and what resources were available to feed,  house, and manage a large movie crew.

Katy followed that with over six years as the entertainment coordinator for a major casino resort in Reno. She cared for entertainers, bands, and stage crews for seven concert venues, all on the same property, many with shows staging simultaneously.  Rooms, food, transportation, security, and fans -- she has handled some of the biggest rock stars and divas in the world, and many still call her friend.

Since moving to Sacramento in 2005, she has served as the events coordinator and marketing manager for a local museum.  There she gained a reputation as one of the top coordinators in Sacramento.  She has been seen on Good Day Sacramento, KCRA-TV, CBS 13 TV's "Save with Dave," and quoted in Sacramento, Our Wedding, and Before Your Vows magazines.



What Does Adagio Mean?            

In music, adagio means to slow down; this particular section is important and is meant to be especially enjoyed.

Adagio is also a dance movement.  If you have ever watched ballet or ice skating, you've seen an adagio.  The male dancer lifts and balances his female companion high over his head.  She flies through the air with beauty and grace while he moves across the floor, turning and stepping through complicated moves with seamless effort.

That's how Katy sees her relationship with her clients. "My job is to hold up my clients, turning and stepping through all the little details," she says.  "It is your day to fly beautifully for all to see!  If you start to fall, my job is to catch you and bring you back to the center.  You are the star of the show!
