The primary goal of any event we plan is to make the guests feel something. From the time they receive a personalized invitation to the time they walk into the room and beyond - we want them be moved - to feel special, considered, and loved. That attention and care is ultimately a reflection of our clients and what the people in their circle mean to them. Whether a corporate party celebrating its employees or a wedding celebrating a union of two families, the recipe is the same. Personalized, intentional details alongside seamless logistics and one of one designs that challenge the status quo.

A Chicago native, Payton moved to ATL and joined the team in 2016. Her wardrobe consists mostly of black, but don’t let that fool you. Payton has a keen eye for detail, a flair for edgy creativity, and a deep love for carefully curated color. When she’s not spending her time planning epic moments for her clients, she's training for a race, curling up with a coffee + her latest read, or learning a new trade for her next home improvement project.
Kelley was born and raised in Georgia and has spent the past several years building a career as both a teacher and an event planner.

Kelley loves bringing creative visions to life through intricate, one-of-a-kind designs that leave a lasting impression on clients and guests alike. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her family + dogs, traveling to the beach, working out, and getting lost in a good book.
Originally from Chicago, Emma spent four years in Houston before settling in Atlanta, the place she now calls home.

Our ideal client is a couple who cares deeply about how their wedding feels, not just how it looks. They’re busy professionals or creative thinkers who value good design, thoughtful details, and a sense of calm in what can otherwise feel like an overwhelming process. They want a wedding that reflects who they are, and they’re drawn to a planning experience that feels personal, guided, and highly organized. More than anything, they’re looking for trust—they want to feel confident that someone understands their vision, protects their time, and can translate their ideas into something elevated, cohesive, and beautifully executed from start to finish.
