THE SISTERS, KATIE + SAM
Co-FOUNDERS
Turning dreams into reality, these two girls have come a long way from selling junk finds on their family farm to starting North Dakota’s first vintage event rental company, the White House Co. After years of dreaming about wedding venues and designing ideas in their sleep, fate brought them to this old historic location tucked away in Fargo’s finest downtown. With over 5 years of experience and being a part of over 1,000 weddings in that time, Katie and Sam love working with couples and event coordinators who want to do things their way and create one-of-a-kind events. Our dynamic sister duo is ready to help host the most rad events in the Ivy + Rose.
