The Planners

Planning parties for local celebrities, politicians, and the elite of The Main Line further underscores the expertise and trust her clients place Karen Pecora Events. It’s fascinating to see how Karen Pecora Events grew from its beginnings to become a respected name in event planning, driven by Karen’s distinctive style and personality. Her story is a testament to the power of exceptional service and personal connections in building a thriving business.

Meet Karen Pecora, a wedding and event planner as dynamic and vibrant as the celebrations she crafts! When she’s not orchestrating flawless events with a flair for creativity and trendsetting, you’ll find her on the rugby sidelines, passionately cheering with a hearty “Get ‘em, Chris!” or “Run, Dom!” that echos through the Main Line. It was on those very rugby sidelines that she met Lindsey Weir, and teleported Lindsey into the event planning world. Both Lindsey and Karen’s rugby-star sons know the duo is fiercely competitive and determined to win at life!

Karen proudly earned the title of MOM-manager from her son, Dom Pecora, who started “Dom Fixes Bikes” at just 10 years old and made TIME’s Kid of the Year list in 2024. The best days for Karen are those when her eldest son joins in on event setups or flower deliveries, often sparking playful competition over who has the better ideas. Their banter brings many laughs and smiles behind the scenes.

Her garden is her sanctuary—a place where she grows stunning blooms and nurtures innovative ideas, sometimes incorporating her homegrown flowers into a bride’s bouquet. Deeply rooted in The Main Line Community, Karen prioritizes buying local and supporting small businesses. Born and raised in Berwyn and a proud Conestoga graduate, she carries the legacy of being the only daughter of Fred and Pearl Nudy, with a strong sense of community responsibility.

Always on the move and never settling for ordinary, Karen is a whirlwind of fast-paced energy and boundless inspiration. She has an uncanny ability to stretch budgets and turn every dollar into magic, often proclaiming that you can achieve the WOW factor on any budget with the right connections. Whether she’s planning a grand soirée or nurturing new ideas, Karen blends passion with precision to make every event truly unforgettable.

With a background in design and environmental sustainability from Philadelphia University, Lindsey brings a unique perspective to event planning. Hailing from charming Malvern, PA, her adventures have taken her from the lush landscapes of Washington State to the sun-kissed shores of Hawaii. This colorful journey enriches her work and reflects her love for both discovery and the great outdoors.

Lindsey’s event planning spark was lit by her knack for throwing fabulous gatherings for family and friends. Her foray into the professional side of things began through a volunteer gig with the Conestoga Rugby Club, where she met Karen—a friend and mentor who opened the door to the magical world of events and floristry and continues to share her expertise.

When she’s not collaborating with Karen to create unforgettable events, Lindsey’s life is filled with hiking, camping, and water sports. Lindsey loves spending time with her energetic, creative kids and her husband, who adds a unique twist to family life as an accomplished bagpiper. She’s also a dedicated reader, an art and architecture enthusiast, and a mid (but passionate!) pickleball player. Her time with her children and her zest for learning new things continually fuel her creative energy.

With a blend of compassion, creativity, and an array of personal interests, Lindsey ensures that every event she touches is not just special but truly one-of-a-kind.
