THE TEAM

Carissa Louise

OWNER & PLANNER

Marti Louise

LEAD DESIGNER

Welcome!

We are event designers for those who want to wow their guests and keep them talking about the best party they've ever been to.

Based in Dayton, OH byLouise was established in 2021, but we have been putting events together for more than 15 years. My mom, Marti, has been a lifelong interior design enthusiast and has a keen eye for details. I always loved dreaming and planning with brides, grooms, and hosts when I coordinated for a local rental company, but had a hard time being so invested in their events only to miss out on the big day. Mom and I had toyed with the idea of going into business for years but finally decided to take that leap when my sister began planning her wedding.

Whether you're recently engaged or have a milestone to celebrate, we know how overwhelming all the details can become. Beginning with industry-standard timelines and documents we then tailor them specifically to your needs and itinerary. We help guide you through vendor appointments, color selection, centerpiece design, floor plans, and more.

Maybe you don't know where to start, or how to keep going, but we do - reach out and let us assist you in designing your most memorable days, always with style and finesse.

All the love,

Carissa
