Danielle McKee

Founder + Principal Planner

Hi, I’m Danielle.

I’m the founder of Futtitinni Events, and I’m happiest when people come together. A shared meal, a full dance floor, a conversation that runs longer than planned—that’s the good stuff.

I bring more than 20 years of event experience, honest advice, and a sense of humor to planning weddings and celebrations. Tell me what you love, what’s overwhelming you, and which traditions you’d happily skip. We’ll start there.

Let’s Talk

I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding planner — or a better wedding day — without Danielle. She’s so thorough, kind, smart, and helpful. She gave me so many great recommendations and even assisted with tricky family dynamics. The day after our wedding, I had guests asking who my planner was — because everything ran so smoothly. I could not recommend Futtitinni Events more.

It started with
the place settings.

At five, I was rearranging place settings at our loud Italian Christmas gatherings. Apparently, I had opinions long before I had a job title.

My first event job was washing dishes at a country club. Ceremony chairs, room flips, a flower nursery, and a stationery shop followed. I learned how a celebration comes together from the people doing the work.

I founded Futtitinni in 2018. That hands-on experience still shapes how we plan today.

 
 

A little more me.

 

A little more me.

Architecture, design, dogs—I can talk about any of them for hours. I’m full of random facts, quick to strike up a conversation, and always happy to have a reason to gather around a table.

Personal from the start.

I stay involved in every Futtitinni celebration. As we get to know you and your plans, we’ll match you with an event-day lead who’s a good fit—that may be me or another planner on our team.

You can expect honest conversations, thoughtful guidance, and care for the people you’re bringing together.
