Hello! My name is Kelsey Johnson and I am the owner of Simply Enchanted Events. I am a true Florida girl, born and raised in the beautiful city of West Palm Beach. After growing up in South Florida, I became an Eagle and pursued my Bachelors Degree in Resort and Hospitality Management at Florida Gulf Coast University. During my college career, I had the privilege of becoming a member of the Chi Omega Fraternity, planning social events and connecting with amazing women. After about six years of living in Fort Myers, I followed my heart and made the move to Central Florida to be with, my now husband, Dj. ​​
Find me on social media!
​​I love cuddling with my little Corgis, Jasper + Charlie, while watching rom-coms or true crime TV shows on Netflix. I am a “Swiftie” but also love rock and heavy metal bands like Falling In Reverse! My husband and I love going to all the rock shows and enjoy venturing out to the Orlando theme parks on our days off together!
​
I became a Certified Wedding Planner back in 2015 while working as a Hotel Catering Sales Manager. After working in hotels and resorts for 8 years, I knew it was time to branch out and open Simply Enchanted Events!
​
Being the Owner of this amazing company truly feels like a dream every day. I absolutely love what I do and it shows through our work. I cannot wait to learn all about you and your wedding day. Let's make your vision a reality!
