Meet Jackie

Hello, I’m Jackie, and I specialize in designing tablescapes that turn ordinary gatherings into extraordinary moments.

My journey into table styling began in New York City, where I worked with one of the top event planners in the industry. During this time, I had the incredible opportunity to contribute to high-profile events like the Met Gala and intimate gatherings for an elite roster of clients, including style icons such as Oscar de la Renta and Vera Wang, as well as luminaries like Martha Stewart and Anna Wintour. These experiences taught me that no detail is too small and that every element must come together to transform a table and elevate the atmosphere of an event. I also discovered that what truly makes an impact is how each element is thoughtfully styled and seamlessly brought together—something I consider my true specialty.

My goal is to bring the art of the tablescape to your next gathering, creating unforgettable dining experiences inspired by celebrity-level elegance, regardless of your budget. And yes, some of my favorite designs even feature paper plates (no, really here is a link to some of my previous table designs that used paper plates!)

With industry expertise and access to a trusted network of vendors who offer both quality and affordability, I ensure that every table is stunning, thoughtfully curated, and designed to make your event exceptional. With experience working alongside some of New York City’s most distinguished, I’ve mastered the art of focusing on the details that matter. Now, I bring that same level of expertise and precision from my table to yours.

After many moves around the world, I now live in the Memphis, TN area with my husband and 10-year-old son, and we’re happy to call a drive down Poplar Ave. home.

I often get asked how I landed my NYC job, with many assuming I had connections. I assure you this small-town girl I did not have any connections. What I did have was this: a desire to be shown I deserve a chance. Instead of an email or an online application, I sent a handwritten note to the event planner, complete with a floral stamp and DIY calligraphy (it’s a miracle it made it to NYC!). Shortly after, I received an in-person interview invitation. I borrowed money for a plane ticket, went with confidence, and was hired on the spot. This small-town girl went from reading Vogue to planning events for the editor-in-chief—what a dream come true! This experience reinforced my belief in the power of details and personalized touches, a philosophy that guides both my tablescape designs and my approach to life.
