At Southerly Event Designs, we believe extraordinary celebrations aren't measured by guest count—they're defined by thoughtful design, meaningful connection, and unforgettable experiences.
Based in Christiansburg and serving Blacksburg, Roanoke, Lynchburg, and communities throughout Southwest Virginia, we specialize in intimate weddings, boutique celebrations, and thoughtfully curated social gatherings designed with intention and exceptional attention to detail.
With nearly thirteen years of event planning and design experience, we transform meaningful moments into beautifully curated celebrations through thoughtful planning, refined design, and exceptional attention to detail. Whether you're planning an intimate wedding, rehearsal dinner, milestone celebration, bridal shower, proposal, or thoughtfully curated private gathering, we create celebrations that feel personal, beautifully designed, and effortlessly executed.
We are passionate about creating celebrations where every detail feels purposeful and every guest feels valued. By focusing on intimate gatherings and thoughtfully curated events, we're able to provide a highly personalized planning experience that emphasizes beautiful design, exceptional hospitality, and meaningful moments.
From concept development and event design to vendor coordination and event-day management, we guide every detail with care so you can be fully present and enjoy your celebration.
If you're searching for a wedding planner or event planner in Southwest Virginia who specializes in intimate weddings, boutique events, and elevated social celebrations, we'd be honored to help bring your vision to life.
Let's create a celebration that feels effortless, meaningful, and uniquely yours.

From milestone birthdays and anniversaries to bridal showers, proposals, graduation celebrations, and private gatherings, we design thoughtful experiences that bring people together and create lasting memories. Every event is tailored to reflect your unique style, story, and vision.

Whether exchanging vows among mountain views or celebrating beneath a canopy of lights, your wedding deserves thoughtful planning, beautiful design, and seamless execution. We create intimate wedding experiences that feel deeply personal, beautifully curated, and uniquely yours.
We intentionally accept a limited number of celebrations each year so every client receives our full attention, thoughtful guidance, and personalized service from the first conversation through the final toast.
