With deep roots in the Golden Isles and coastal destinations beyond, our work is defined by timeless style, meaningful detail, and a seamless guest experience.
At the heart of C&M Designs is partnership — not only between the two of us, but with every couple we serve.
Maggie leads planning and logistics with calm precision and years of experience producing elegant coastal weddings. Her strength lies in structure, organization, and execution — ensuring every timeline, vendor collaboration, and event detail flows with intention and ease.
Callie leads design with a thoughtful, architectural approach. Drawing from her background in psychology, architecture, and wedding planning, she considers how layout, color, texture, and atmosphere shape the emotional experience of a celebration. Her work is refined yet never overwhelming — always rooted in the couple’s story.
Together, we create weddings that are cohesive, immersive, and deeply personal. We believe your celebration should feel elevated without feeling overdesigned, structured without feeling rigid, and joyful.
