Tell me how you want it to feel.I’ll create the world.

Private creative direction by Traci Kennedy, with floral artistry by Juliet Tan—for exceptional celebrations that already have a planner, producer, or private representative in place.

One briefOne original event worldOne definitive handoffNo planning or coordination
The missing first move

Commission the world before anyone buys the pieces.

Before spending six figures on florals, lighting, rentals, stationery, entertainment, and environments that were selected separately, commission one coherent creative world that tells every partner what the celebration is meant to become.

One visionEvery visual decision belongs to the same story.
Less noiseThe planner and vendors receive clear creative direction.
More impactYour investment creates a feeling—not a pile of parts.
The commission

A complete event world.

Traci authors the emotional and visual language of the celebration. Juliet’s floral artistry may then be commissioned to give that world a living, sculptural signature.

01

Atmosphere & Narrative

The feeling, story, pace, and point of view that make the celebration unmistakably yours.

02

Color, Texture & Material

A disciplined palette and material language that guide every environment and partner.

03

Environments & Moments

The visual arc—from arrival and dining to the defining moments guests remember.

04

Event Identity

Creative direction for invitations, digital touchpoints, signage, gifting, and personal details.

05

Floral Art Direction

A clear creative brief for Juliet Tan’s separately commissioned floral artistry and installations.

06

Partner Direction

One visual standard your planner and selected vendors can translate into execution.

The definitive handoff

Your Event Worldbook.

A custom creative master document—art direction, palettes, material cues, spatial ideas, signature moments, and partner-facing guidance—built for your planner to execute without asking you to explain the vision over and over.

VÉRA Elite Group
A deliberately contained process

Create. Reveal. Hand off.

01

Private Brief

One focused conversation with the decision-maker or their representative: desired feeling, priorities, investment context, venue, and non-negotiables.

02

Private Creation

Traci develops the complete visual world behind the scenes. No endless meetings, group chats, or design-by-committee.

03

One Reveal

The event world is presented as a resolved point of view, followed by one intentional refinement.

04

Definitive Handoff

Your Worldbook transfers the vision to the established planner or producer. Juliet’s floral proposal is commissioned separately when desired.

What this is not

Creative authority—not coordination.

This is not wedding planning, vendor management, contracting, budgeting, scheduling, logistics, or event-day coordination.

Every commission requires an established planner, producer, family office, assistant, or private representative to own execution and client logistics.

Traci creates the world. The execution team brings it to life. Juliet creates the floral signature when commissioned.

Now accepting

Three private commissions.

For milestone celebrations, private weddings, destination gatherings, and singular personal events where the atmosphere matters as much as the occasion.
