Hello!

My name is Stephanie, and you may remember me from Just Picnic Events. I'm beyond excited to introduce our new chapter- Soirée Styled Events!

Our new name, Soirée, reflects my approach to event styling, creating beautifully intimate gatherings with elegance, sophistication, and simplicity at their core. It's about capturing the essence of each occasion while keeping the process effortless and enjoyable.

Event styling has always been my passion, and as a former bride, I understand (and challenges!) of wedding planning. That's why I'm dedicated to bringing your dream celebration to life in a way that feels seamless and stress-free without breaking the bank.

I'd love to hear from you, whether you're ready to start planning or just want to chat about your vision. My inbox is always open and I can't wait to connect!

I'm 36 year old wife, mother, and passionate event planner. I’ve always had a love for making special moments even more memorable, and I’m lucky enough to be able to turn that passion into a career. I’m a proud mom to our beautiful daughter, who was born in 2018, and I’m also navigating the exciting (and sometimes chaotic) adventure of renovating our 80-year-old Queenslander home. It’s definitely a work in progress, but I’m loving every step of it!

I grew up in Brisbane, but when I met my husband, we made the move to the Gold Coast. Fast forward to 2025, and we’ve now settled in Maryborough, QLD—my husband’s hometown. For those who might not know, Maryborough is located past Gympie and just before Hervey Bay, and we’ve been calling this beautiful town home for the past three years. It’s a peaceful, close knit community, and we absolutely love the slower pace of life here.

When I’m not helping couples and clients create their dream weddings and events, you’ll find me in the kitchen—cooking up something delicious (I’m a huge foodie!) or out exploring new places with my family. And let’s not forget my love for coffee; I’m a self-proclaimed coffee snob, and I’m always on the hunt for the perfect brew!

I’m truly passionate about what I do, and I believe every event, no matter how big or small, deserves attention to detail, creativity, and a personal touch. Whether you’re planning a wedding, an engagement party, or any special occasion, I’m here to bring your vision to life and create moments that you and your guests will cherish forever.

I’m so excited to connect with you and be a part of your celebration!
