The Local Table….What’s That and What’s Next?!

Feathered Arrow Community Introduces The Local Table

I want to share what’s been on my heart recently and because of that I’ve decided to start sending out more consistent blog posts, whether it be on design, weddings I recently did, events, portraits, introducing new people, or even just words of encouragement.

I’ve been taking an Instagram course from fellow girlboss, Jenna Kutcher. (look her up, she’s amazing!) She’s based in Wisconsin but is incredibly business savvy. Additionally, she’s an Instagram guru, a killer photographer, teacher, and water color artist. She’s really inspired me and sparked the notion to be more authentic in business and help others out along the way. Even though I’m very new to this entrepreneur thing, I figured a lot of us are! So why not bridge the gap and do this together instead of being alone, especially in the beginning!

Building Community

In comes The Local Table! I started this over a year and a half ago more as a dinner party to discover your city in a unique way gathered around the table with good food and good drinks. I decided that my passion was really in building community around that table for small business owners. I mean what’s better than networking and connecting with a plate of good food or a great drink in your hand? I really want to create a local community of small business entrepreneurs to have a table where they can learn, connect, collaborate, work together and build community. We all know LA can be a bit lonely sometimes. So, let’s kick loneliness to the curb and start building meaningful community around us. We’re not meant to do life alone. Ever. So let’s start doing life together.

Hi, I'm Kari.
Wedding Planner, Podcaster, & Creative Entrepreneur.

The founder and lead planner behind Feathered Arrow Studio. Over the past 11 years, I’ve designed and executed more than 175 weddings throughout Southern California, helping couples create celebrations that feel deeply personal and beautiful.

My approach blends thoughtful design with genuine hospitality. I care deeply about how a wedding feels not just how it looks. I want every detail to be intentional and every guest to feel taken care of. Together we take your inspiration, your story, and your priorities and turn them into a celebration that feels effortless, welcoming, and unmistakably yours.

Not every couple needs full-service planning, which is why I also offer wedding consults and planning guides for those navigating the process on their own. I’m also the co-host of Just Another Biz Podcast, where we have honest conversations about the wedding industry with fellow creatives behind the scenes.
