Krissie Simek
Owner/ Founder & Planner/Designer

My passion runs deep for planning with wonderful couples and clients. My focus throughout the planning is to highlight your connection as a couple and celebrate all the planning milestones because it is magical. A phone call from me always starts with “how are you feeling?” because I genuinely want to know and ensure that you are feeling all the good feels that a wedding brings. While events can be stressful, I love being able to make the process fun.

Prior to White Lace, I worked at award winning resort properties and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology with a minor in Literature and Writing, along with a Certificate for Meeting and Event Planning. I/we also teach the Weddings and Social Events class at San Diego State University. Outside of family and wedding planning, this class is my happy place! A little more about me. I am married to my college sweetheart who stole my heart and holds my hand while dancing through this life with me. I am a mother to our magical daughter, Lacey. She is truly the epitome of love, joy and beauty inside and out. I am quite the romantic, can you tell? I think deeply and enjoy the creative process, yet sometimes say the darndest things when an idea sparks my excitement.

I have to say, there is something so special about a wedding day. The excitement of the planning, the final details, the day itself- it is like nothing else and I love being able to help with these moments! I am thrilled to work with such wonderful couples to bring their wedding day to life as they celebrate and cheers to a new life adventure. I have been part of the White Lace team for over 9 years and have loved every minute of it. I have a background in hotels, resorts and social media marketing along with a Bachelor of Science degree in Hospitality and Tourism Management with an emphasis in Meetings and Events. I am a dog mom to my adorable golden retriever Archie, love a beautiful sunset and a good happy hour. Nothing brings me more joy than being able to bring my couples vision to life, it is truly the best feeling in the world! Cheers to love!

Elena Simeone
Wedding Planner & Designer

I am a born and raised SoCal girl and because of my California roots you may hear me use the phrases “dope” and “chill”, but don’t let that fool you! I discovered at a very young age that I loved anything where I could be creative, eventually graduating from UC Davis with a BA degree in Design. After several years managing a fashion boutique in-store and online, I moved to San Diego to pursue a career in event planning. Utilizing my design training, I love to create curated mood boards and mock-up designs. I feel it is important to be intentional with each design decision. I enjoy learning about the lives of my couples and working on how to make their day custom to them! I believe in total inclusivity in the wedding industry and working with all types of couples. My greatest passion and driving force is designing and creating a special day and seeing my client's reactions when they first see their dream wedding become a reality. When I am not planning events, I love trying new restaurants, and you will often find me whipping up recipes in my kitchen.
