Nathan Maloney, Katie’s partner (in business, parenthood, life, love, and just about everything else), grew up knowing he’d be some sort of entrepreneur. A true lover of hospitality, Nate’s personal mission is to make people feel welcome, happy, and relaxed. These days, he mostly helps run KOWE from behind the scenes, but remains an integral part of the team and is relied on for his great support, creative solutions, and event planning wisdom. 

Much like his corporate 9-5 role, Nate likes that the wedding planning industry is about people. From small, intimate affairs to gatherings with thousands in attendance, Nate prides himself on being able to execute an event that speaks to each client’s personal brand and overcome any challenges that may come up along the way. His goal (and the collective KOWE goal) is to carry all the stress and worry for a client so they can enjoy their special day. 

Creative, imaginative, patient, and passionate, Nate brings so much to the KOWE table, including his great smile! And when he’s not working or building a last minute stone path across very wet grass so guests don’t lose their shoes in the mud, you’ll most likely find him spending time with his family. His and Katie’s wish to have a girl and a boy came true, and hanging with Grace and Charlie is his favorite thing to do (hands down). Madly in love by the third date, Nate’s devotion to all things KOWE is unmatched. When it comes time for your event, you’ll see it for yourself!
