Dabney's Designs (Elevated Events)

Creative Director

Dabney is a Southern Belle who fell in love with being a hostess way back during her childhood tea party days. Dabney's background in interior design combined with her original career as a Certified Public Accountant lends itself well to event design, planning, production & styling. It is a rarity to find a person who is both a creative force and remarkably organized with impeccable attention to detail. Dabney highly values the relationships she forges with each of her clients and believes that those relationships allow her to personalize your event which is what truly elevates the ordinary!

Every detail was planned for a perfect wedding

Dabney provided us with the most amazing assistance in getting ready for our wedding. She listened to all the details of the scope and the style of the wedding we had in mind, and helped us turn all of our thoughts and dreams into a perfect weekend in Cancun. Dabney assisted in every detail from the design of the invitations, to welcome bags for our guests, and we benefitted greatly from her experience when working with the photographers and onsite event coordinators. By the time the event came, it all went so smoothly because everything had been thought through. Thank you so much for all the hard work

Simon, Thank you so much for your stellar review! It was such a joy to work with you and help bring your wedding weekend vision to life. I truly appreciate your kind words about my organization and attention to detail—it means the world to me! Knowing that you felt supported throughout the planning process and that everything came together beautifully is the greatest reward. I thoroughly enjoyed our time together, dreaming up your “sentimental sunset” design vision. From determining the best layouts and table configurations to exploring different tabletop combinations, every moment was a delight for me. Creating each coordinating themed detail—invitation suites, signage, day-of supplies, and welcome gift bags—for your destination wedding weekend was a true highlight. Your wedding in Cancun was magical and memorable for everyone! Thank you for recommending me; it truly warms my heart! Wishing you both a lifetime of love and happiness!

Christina, Thank you so much for your positive review! It was my honor to work with you and your mom to help bring your wedding vision to life. We loved the round bar with a martini focus—it added such a sophisticated touch to the celebration! Your grand entrance and exit with the musicians on the horns were truly unforgettable moments. I’m so glad we could create an experience that felt uniquely yours and allowed you to fully enjoy every moment. Thank you again for trusting Dabney Designs with your special day. Wishing you both a lifetime filled with love, happiness, and beautiful memories!

Dabney was an excellent partner and cheerleader throughout the entire planning experience! From our first meeting, Dabney truly understood my vision, provided supportive suggestions based on her expertise, and helped me make all the essential decisions once we chose our venue. Her industry knowledge gave me a sense of confidence, and our wedding day was stress free because of her hands-on direction and management. I cannot say enough good things about working with Dabney - we're so grateful for her!

Stephanie, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was an absolute joy to work with you and help bring your vision of an “intimate, elevated garden party with a touch of vintage charm” to life. From our first meeting, it was a delight collaborating on all the details that made your day so personal, from layout and design decisions to creating an atmosphere that felt uniquely yours. I especially loved incorporating ikebana flower arrangements into the table-scape design, which perfectly captured the elegance of your vision. Other highlights included the charming flower purse baskets carried by your bridesmaids, the coordinating table numbers, the place cards, and the amazing monogram sign on the fireplace—absolutely unforgettable! I truly appreciate your kind words about my support throughout the planning process. Your trust in me truly means the world. Knowing that you felt confident and supported every step of the way is the greatest reward. Thank you again for allowing me to be part of such a special day. Wishing you and Erik a lifetime filled with love, happiness, and beautiful memories!
