Over a year of planning and dreaming.. and the day came on 10.21.23. What an honor to be a part of the planning and design of Mary Kate and Vincientā€™s wedding. The details and decor were what dreams are made of for me and the food was a masterpiece. The vibe of this wedding was quiet luxury with a five course meal where guests could take their time and engageā€¦ followed by a lively after party dancing under the stars.
Iā€™ll always remember this oneā€¦ and there will be lots more footage and images to come šŸ„‚

This event. This is the 10th year CLED has proudly designed the Roanoke College Presidentā€™s Evening gala! This one was special though- we didnā€™t just transform the gym into one event for the gala- we transformed it into two events!- The Inaugural Ceremony in the morning for the new President Frank Shushok Jr. for 800 guests and then a midday flip into the evening gala for 400 guests!
When I say ā€œweā€ I refer to a group of caring, hard- working, tireless individuals including my stellar Caroline LaRocca Event Designteam, Lee Hartman and Sons, and the amazing staff and students and volunteers at Roanoke College. This event planned so meticulously by Sally Logan Walker has been months in the making and and itā€™s an honor to be a part of it.

These pictures have been worth with the wait!
This wedding was so special me ā¤ļø
The stunning bride Rachel is the daughter of Sharlene who was my business partner in my first event design company, White Glove Event Production, circa 2002. Sharlene ( the beauty in the green dress) and I created some beautiful events, learned a ton, and were way ahead of our time. The memories in our studio on Church Avenue are priceless. There was so much joy in that space. We always had our children there and there was so much laughter and love. We were the ying to each others yang. (Basically she was the Scarlet Oā€™Hara and I was the Chelsea Handler of the wedding world and we killed it!)
I remember the day I was 9 months pregnant with Pierce and having contractions still wanting to work- it was Sharlene who forced me to leave (physically took me home) and said ā€œyou need to have a baby, Iā€™ll take over and Iā€™ll see ya Monday!ā€ She took my girls home that night while I did in fact, have Pierce. He ended up with a makeshift crib right in my office at White Glove and became our little mascot for awhile, wooing all the brides who came through.
When Sharlene called me to design Rachelā€™s wedding this September I was honored beyond belief. Rachel has the same s***k as her mom not to mention beauty for days.
She gave me a stunning palette to work with and I loved every second of painting this wedding beautiful.
Wishing Rachel and Taylor ALL the love šŸ’•

How about the joy on these faces?!
Kaki was a bride who did her wedding her way. Every part of the celebration was to be sustainable with the least waste and footprint. That meant no cut flowers for me (except the bouquet which was okā€™ed the week of the wedding)!
What happened was a stunning collab as I got to play with and style the most gorgeous potted plants and goodies from !
The decor by was so elegant but relaxed Blue Ridge Virginia all the way. The photos by capture the vibe perfectly and the food by was to die for. With stations like rib eye carvery and grit bar- how could they not be?!
Planning and designing this wedding alongside this family for over a year was an experience Iā€™ll always sweetly remember ā¤ļø
Happy one week and one day married Kaki and Blake!!

This has been a dream in the making. When one of my dearest lifelong friends asked me to style her daughterā€™s wedding- my heart skipped a beat ā¤ļø. The fact that it was 3000 miles away made it all the more fun! I got to experience the LA flower market, had the best team of assistants with Greg, Blake, and Brynn, and had a wonderful collaboration with the parents of the groom, who hosted 120 guests in their beautiful home. I couldnā€™t be more honored to have done this and canā€™t wait for the pro shots. I adore LA and and will return anytime to style an event ā¤ļøšŸŒøšŸ’•

I love designing head tables! Both of these May brides wanted their wedding parties and SOs seated together which means one LONG table. The one in a large scale tent at begged for a stunning aerial floral installation to stand out. The one at with more limited space called for a montage of varying glass with single blooms. But always room for tons of candlelight šŸ¤
