About Us

A personal start

The Elegant Eclectic began with my daughter's wedding. As I poured my heart into creating a beautiful and unique tablescape for her special day, I never imagined it would become the foundation of a business.


After the wedding, photos shared by the venue sparked an unexpected response. Brides began asking how they could achieve a similar look for their own celebrations, and what started as a labor of love soon grew into a passion for helping others bring their event visions to life.


Today, I have the privilege of helping couples and families create beautiful, meaningful gatherings filled with the details that make each event uniquely their own.

Working with Mary and her company was an amazing experience! They provided the decor and dining accessories that was exactly what we wanted! They were very friendly, talented, and cooperative! I would highly recommend Mary and her company for any upcoming event that you are planning!

Her inventory is unique and has lots of options so you can find the look you want with the most competitive pricing. She made our night exactly how we had always envisioned and we are so thankful. Do yourselves a favor and lock in your date ASAP."

Mary at The Elegant Eclectic is one of the best event designers I have ever met. Having put on multiple large scale events that took care for the attention to detail, using Mary made everything easier. We gave her a budget and a vision board and she pulled together the most beautiful Gala that we’ve ever had! We had compliment after compliment from attendees thanking us, marveling at the details and design. We were glad to tell them that it was Mary!!


Mary makes working with her easy. She asks good questions, has fantastic ideas, and a collection of most of the table elements that you’d need without ever renting from a third party!


We will continue to work with Mary as long as we have events!!

We can't recommend Mary Kirkpatrick with The Elegant Eclectic highly enough! We've had the pleasure of working with Mary for several events, and her tablescape designs are always exceptionally creative and perfectly tailored to our themes.


She consistently goes above and beyond expectations to ensure every detail is flawless. Mary's talent, professionalism, and dedication truly elevate every event she touches!

When I mentioned to my wedding venue that we wanted vintage, 60s/70s style plateware for our wedding, their first recommendation was The Elegant Eclectic. I emailed Mary and she promptly sent over photos of her collection of beautiful retro plateware, and we knew she was the right person for the job! She invited us to her serene home to view the full collection and dream up some styling options. Even after seeing the dishes in person, we were still blown away with how Mary and her team styled and presented the plateware on our wedding day. It was absolutely perfect and really brought everything together. We received so many compliments on the dishes, and they truly made our wedding feel like "us." Mary and her team were a delight to work with and made everything so easy on the day of our wedding. Would highly recommend her and her beautiful collection of dishes!

Mary was the absolute best at helping my vision for my wedding reception come to life! She provided excellent guidance on choices for tableware and linens, and even helped to provide extra tables in order for my seating chart vision to work. She communicated great, was efficient in set-up and break down at the venue, and went above and beyond to make sure everything looked perfect. 10/10 recommend working with The Elegant Eclectic for your wedding or any event!

Mary was absolutely amazing from the first phone call to the very last minute. I wanted a certain center and Mary graciously purchased them for her inventory so she could give my son and daughter in law exactly what they wanted. Her communication and attention to detail is impeccable . I was planning all this from another state and Mary was there to answer any questions or help in anyway she could. I would 200% recommend Mary for any of your wedding needs.

Hiring Mary was the best decision we made for our daughter's wedding. She and her team transformed the beautiful venue into an elegant black‑and‑white masterpiece with the perfect touches of gold. The décor was a wonderful combination of formal and sophisticated while still setting the stage for a lively, unforgettable reception. Every detail — from the sleek tablescapes to the dramatic accents — felt intentional and beautifully cohesive. Mary understood our daughter's vision immediately and elevated it with her creativity and impeccable eye for design. Walking into the reception felt like stepping into a glamorous celebration, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how stunning everything looked. Her professionalism, artistry, and calm presence made the entire process seamless. Mary went above and beyond to take care of every last detail and stepped in to fill needs when she identified them. We are so grateful for the magic she created for our daughter's special day!

I cannot recommend The Elegant Eclectic enough!! Mary is truly the reason my wedding went so well. I didn’t have to worry about a thing on the day of the wedding, and had very little to stress about in the lead up - none of which was related to decor or flowers. She did all of my decor and flowers, and everything was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. She even helped us by breaking down all of the ceremony furniture so that my friends and family could enjoy the reception without taking the time out to do that work. Mary is such a joy to work with and was the glue that held my perfect day together.

if i got married again, undoubtedly i would pick mary every time. she knew exactly what vibe and look i was going for, and was able to execute it perfectly. throughout the process, there were things i hadn’t considered or thought of, and i wasn’t sure what to do. she offered to take care of it for me and made the best decisions to match and what she thought would look good. she stood my ground for me, helped make my ideas come to life, if not better! any event, any wedding, she is your planner for it. she was thorough, thoughtful, precise, and made sure that whatever needed to happen, happened. 10/10 would recommend.
