BOOK A PRIVATE PERMANENT JEWELRY PARTY IN KANSAS CITY

LINK x LOU® is not only a jewelry brand, it’s an experience. When you invite us to your party, we bring the experience to you, in the comfort of your own home. We thrive on special occasions, but a girls’ night is just as important to us as the big day. Regardless of the reason, an event with LINK x LOU® is always a celebration.  

The beauty of a private party is intimacy. We get to know you & your people in your true environment while providing something totally unique & fun. Parties require a minimum of five guests making a purchase. The bonus? The host receives a 20% discount on all jewelry going on their body.  

Adding us to your guest list comes with minimal effort on your end. All we ask for is an outlet, a table & chairs, & some good lighting, which we all know & love. This is explained more in-depth in our beloved host letter. Other than that, you party, we link. As a host, you have no reason to worry about us. We’re happy to go with your flow & serve as the main act or just an added bonus. Guests Get Linked™ one at a time & once everyone gets their gold, we’re out of your hair. Unless, of course, we’re having too much fun. This is common, but keep in mind we never link & drink ;)  

Link parties are what you make of them! We love to chat with you ahead of time to hear more about your special event & how we can curate the best experience for you & your guests. You can always count on us to provide great vibes & beautiful jewelry, the rest is up to you!

LINK x LOU® also partners with local businesses in a pop-up setting — find a pop-up through the "attend a pop-up" link below to Get Linked™!

HOST A POP-UP

Pop-ups pop off. Partnering with LINK x LOU® is an experience you won’t regret. As a small business, we are always eager to collaborate with other brands to create hype. Whether female-founded, climate-positive or loved locally, client crossover is inevitable. We pop up with pride & are happy to represent you & your brand just as much as our own. The pop-up side of our business revolves around event efficiency & big reach in a condensed amount of time.

By lending us space in your shop, salon, or studio, we maximize our impact by bringing new & recurring faces in the door. The pop-up version of the Link experience is short & sweet, but just as special as a private party. Appointments are booked in 15-30-minute intervals, allowing ample time for the linker to guide guests through size, fit & the hardest part, picking their chain. This gives the linkee a taste of the full LINK x LOU® experience & extends an invite for private parties or future pop-ups. It’s perfect for the on-the-go gal or guy who is interested in getting Linked & needs to witness the magic before committing to a party or becoming a repeat pop-up goer.  

Keep in mind, this is not our first rodeo. We have perfected the pop-up adventure & know how to draw a crowd. All we need from you is a small spot in your shop to make ours for the day or a handful of chosen hours. The rest comes naturally! Our partnerships are curated based on ethical ethos, clientele, & most importantly, the confidence that we will deliver a memorable experience. After all, permanent jewelry is meant to last. We care about the relationship we’re building with you just as much as the person sitting in our chair, so the more we can collaborate, the better. Let's link up!

THE LINK X LOU EXPERIENCE

MEET OUR KANSAS CITY LINKERS

Kansas City Linker aka permanent jewelry welder, Caitlin Ford headshot
CAITLIN FORD
Caitlin is originally from Omaha, NE, and resides in Kansas City. In college, Caitlin played soccer at Butler Community College and transferred to K-State. She furthered her education at MidAmerica Nazarene University for her licensure in Mental Health Counseling. Caitlin is currently a Counselor in the Kansas City area while simultaneously being a part of the KC Linker dream. Her full-time job as a therapist is her passion project. Beyond work and LINK x LOU®, Caitlin enjoys shopping, drawing, painting, and learning about herself and others.

Her favorite things about living in KC are the community, the badass FEMALE business owners and their support, and good, genuine people. Caitlin’s spirit animal is a bulldog because they are stubborn, very friendly, not the most graceful but playful, active and affectionate, they have strong family bonds, and are protective of their people.

Why LINK x LOU®? Caitlin believes that the best part about LINK x LOU® permanent jewelry is that it is 14k gold, so no tarnishing, no clasp, and no thought process. Just flawlessness all day, every day. LINK is an experience! You walk into the unknown, with a sisterhood behind you, supporting and cheering you on. The pure joy of seeing people gather around and LOVE LINK. but most importantly meeting people. To Get Linked™ is to know that the process is quick. But in those 15 minutes, strangers become friends, and a connection is made and another experience unfolds.

Fun fact: Caitlin has not traveled outside of the US, yet, but manifests that one day she will!

SARA SCHRAM
Sara is currently located in Overland Park, KS. Sara is a photographer by trade, a farmer by nature, and a mom of four sweet people. Outside of LINK x LOU®, Sara’s passion is her family’s farm, Sweetwater Sugar Maple Farm. She grew up on an orange grove and has landed on a maple farm. At Sweetwater Farm, Sara enjoys working, beekeeping, and tapping trees for syrup. Her current project is making Sweetwater Farm sustainable through syrup, seeds, saplings, stays, and dry goods. In addition to her farm, Sara has worked as a professional photographer for Hallmark Cards and runs her own photography company, XOXO Hugs and Kisses, for more than 20 years.

The things Sara loves the most about Kansas City are the Midwest Pride, the kind people, and the homegrown hustle. Creating, designing, and spending time with family and friends are the things that make Sara’s heart smile. That’s one of the reasons why she joined the LINK x LOU® family. Sara’s spirit animal is a horse. She grew up on horseback, and it is now taking her a new direction as an empty nester, encouraging her to never stop learning and doing.

Why LINK x LOU®? For Sara, LINK x LOU® is special because of the sentiment of making forever memories. With every glance, you are reminded of the unique experience and sweet people you are Linked together with. Because of her respect for the founder and her ideals, LINK x LOU® feels like family.

Kansas City Linker Kamber Crowe portrait
KAMBER CROWE
Originally from a small town outside of OKC, Kamber dropped the O after graduating from Oklahoma State University and took her skills north and has been in KC ever since! Kamber’s professional background is in Project Management and Software Automation but she has a passion for the fashion industry and an even bigger love for connecting with people.

Her side gigs include Linking, teaching barre, brunching, biking, snuggling up with a good murder mystery novel, catching dinner with friends, or taking a little weekend getaway. Kamber loves the true 'KC Pride' that embodies everyone in the city. From sports to small businesses, the people are so kind and supportive creating a genuinely encouraging community vibe.

Why LINK x LOU®? Kamber is all about investing in something that saves her time. With permanent jewelry, you don't have to think about what jewelry you're going to wear, putting it on, repairing it, or taking it off because of certain activities. It’s an easy way to look polished and put together all the time without giving any time up. Kamber’s favorite part of LINK x LOU® is working for and with such amazing people who have great heads on their shoulders, are always willing to help, and have a genuine mission and vision behind what we do.

Fun fact: Kamber is currently challenging herself to read 21 books in 2021. Regardless of the genre, it is both an escape and creative outlet for her. Follow her on Instagram to get in on book reviews and join her growing online community!
