About Me

Meet Katie Semenas, owner of Katie's Party Lab, pictured with her husband and three daughters during a family photo session in a blooming garden–highlighting the heart behind her kid-focused party business rooted in creativity, motherhood, and joyful celebrations in Erie, Colorado.

Hey there! I'm Katie. Founder, party planner, NICU nurse turned memory-maker, and mom of three.

I'm the creative brain (and glitter cleanup crew) behind Katie's Party Lab. I'm also a wife to Keith–retired Coast Guard veteran and master of dad jokes–and mom to three incredible girls: Autumn (11), Ellie (8), and Emma (2). Our days are filled with chaos, crafts, cupcakes, and a lot of love.

Katie's Party Lab was born when Autumn asked for a rose gold sleepover for her birthday–and I went all in. Seeing the joy on her face made me realize I wanted to bring that magic to other families too. Before this adventure, I spent 15 years as a NICU RN, celebrating tiny but mighty milestones. That experience taught me to find the magic in everyday moments–and now I help families celebrate those moments in the sweetest way possible.

WHY I DO THIS

Because childhood should feel magical.

Because moms deserve to enjoy the party too.

Because the small milestones matter just as much as the big ones.

At Katie's Party Lab, I believe every child deserves a magical celebration and every parent deserves to relax and enjoy the moment too. Specializing in creative and sensory-friendly events, I cater to kids, including NICU graduates, ensuring everyone has a joyful experience. Whether it's a spa day, a patch party, or a unique sleepover, I provide stress-free, memorable experiences for families around Erie, Colorado.
