Meet Kathleen Deery
Kathleen Deery and her team are known for their thoughtful event designs grounded in the art of storytelling. Kathleen transforms her client’s visions into memorable celebrations through intention with every detail, from flowers and textiles to lighting and furniture. Her ability to capture each client’s personality and reflect it in their event is unmatched.
Driven by a genuine passion for her craft, Kathleen treasures the connections formed with clients, often evolving into lasting friendships. She cherishes the opportunity to work from her heart — one that is enthusiastically bright, as seen through her own wedding photographs below.
“I anchor my creative vision on the couple that I’m designing for — their personal history and style, where they’ve chosen to have their wedding, and the stories that they want to share and reminisce on the next day. That’s where the inspiration is; flowers and decor themselves are not the story, they are a part of what makes the overall environment feel unique, memorable, and set apart from the everyday.”
