Meet Our Team

We Curate Authentic, Memorable Events Through Creativity + Connection

Crystal Gordon

Founder / Lead Designer

Hello, and welcome! OK so not to brag, but I’m very good at weddings. Most likely due to having done a few (200-ish) over 12 years as the Lead Consultant at Montana Wildflower Weddings. My passion for weddings started as a teen growing up on the Montana ‘hi-line’ with six younger brothers, when I plastered pages out of ‘BRIDES’ magazine around my room. Fast forward a few decades, a transition from mortgage lending + tons of amazing mentorship from the best in this business, Curated by Crystal magically came to life! Other fun facts: I’m a Harley rider, hunter, tequila connoisseur, and scratch baker. I also take great pride in being a Marine daughter, sister, wife & bonus mom. My husband (Billy) and I raised our six kids in Billings; then along came grandkids and the rest is history. They make our hearts burst! From wedding design/styling, consulting & collaboration to custom elopements, let my experience & guidance work for you and watch your vision come to life effortlessly. Let the planning begin!!

Briane Kruckenberg

Bridal Consultant / Assistant

I would like to introduce you to my right-hand gal, and because we know you’re wondering: her name is literally pronounced Brian-E. Crazy cool, right?! Bri hails from Park City, MT and graduated Black Hills State University with a business admin/marketing degree. Bri’s passion for planning events, catering, making people happy, and all things wedding made for an instant connection with me the moment we met. After seven years and creating over 100 dream weddings together, this girl can almost read my mind. We really are a fabulous pair! She’s been married to hubby (Chad) for 23 years, has two incredible sons, is an avid skier, and adventure-seeker. I am so grateful to have her on my team, and you will be too!

Kayleigh Brickey

Social Media Manager

And now the uber talented beauty who works diligently to share great social media content for Curated…Kayleigh with KB Creative. Asking her to manage this area that I so horribly lack in was a definite no-brainer! Kayleigh lives in Coeur d’Alene, ID with her husband and two teen daughters. Between driving her kids all around town, she also spends her days scouring wedding albums for the perfect photos to showcase our work along with fun wedding tips/advice, unique details and much more. Kayleigh feels that connection and community among followers and other preferred vendors is extremely important. She’s a fantastic addition to the Curated crew!
