I believe the most memorable spaces aren’t created by following a formula.
They’re built through unexpected combinations, considered details, and a willingness to explore something different.
AT A Summer Muse, we create environments with character, depth, and a point of view.
EVENT DESIGN & CREATIVE DIRECTION
Every celebration begins with a vision. Mine begins with understanding what makes yours worth creating.
I develop the complete visual direction of an event, considering not just how individual elements look, but how they relate to one another and transform the space as a whole.
Florals, lighting, furnishings, linens, stationery, custom textiles, and architectural details are thoughtfully considered as part of a single design.
My comprehensive service extends beyond creative direction. I guide the planning process, assemble the appropriate vendor team, manage design-related decisions, and oversee the execution of the event.
Professional event coordination is included, with timeline development, vendor communication, and wedding-day logistical management.
The result is a celebration that feels intentional, distinctive, and entirely its own.
FLORAL DESIGN
Flowers are an opportunity to introduce movement, texture, color, and an element of the unexpected.
My designs are guided by the setting and the overall composition, sometimes abundant and expressive, other times restrained and architectural.
Whether creating an intimate tablescape or a large-scale installation, I’m interested in flowers that feel connected to their environment rather than simply placed within it.
The vessel is never an afterthought. I’m continually searching for interesting urns, compotes, and unexpected pieces that bring their own character to an arrangement. Sometimes it’s the flowers that inspire the design; other times, it’s a vessel I’ve been waiting for just the right opportunity to use.
I love the way these small distinctions can change the entire feeling of a table or installation. It’s one more opportunity to create something that feels considered, collected, and entirely its own.
Floral design is available as a standalone service or as part of my comprehensive event design offering.
Custom Textiles & Drapery
Some of the most interesting transformations begin with the materials themselves.
Fabric can soften architecture, redefine a room, or completely alter the atmosphere of a space. Custom-built elements allow us to create something that simply cannot be found in a rental catalog.
My work includes ceiling and wall drapery, custom textiles, upholstery, slipcovers, specialty furnishings, architectural backdrops, bars, seating displays, and original installations.
Through skilled fabrication and installation, I create pieces tailored to the setting and the creative vision behind it.
These services are available independently to clients, planners, designers, and venues, or incorporated into a comprehensive event design.
CREATIVE COLLABORATIONS
I enjoy working with planners, designers, and venues who see the value in creating something original.
Whether you have an established concept that needs to be brought to life or an idea that requires a little exploration, I offer floral design, custom drapery, textiles, and fabrication as independent creative services.
I welcome projects that invite a different perspective.
