Frequently Asked Questions

We believe beautiful entertaining begins long before the first guest arrives. From the welcome at your door to the details of your gathering, we thoughtfully design and coordinate the elements that create the experience—so instead of managing the details, you can actually enjoy being there.
Welcoming beautifully. Gathering effortlessly. Enjoying every moment.

Taylor & Joy is an elevated décor and entertaining studio specializing in seasonal porch and outdoor styling, event and party design, décor sourcing and installation, tablescapes and entertaining spaces, custom bar concepts, and event setup and styling. Our goal is to thoughtfully handle the details leading up to your gathering so you can be present for the moments that matter.
-
Every Taylor & Joy experience begins with understanding your space, style, needs and vision. From there, we develop the design, source the necessary elements, coordinate applicable vendors, prepare the details and complete the installation or event setup. The scope varies by service, but the goal is always the same: a beautiful finished experience without you having to manage every detail.
-
Not at all. You can come to us with a fully developed vision, a few inspiration photos, or simply tell us how you want the space or gathering to feel. Part of our service is translating those ideas into a cohesive design.
-
Absolutely. We love incorporating meaningful or beautiful pieces you already have. We'll thoughtfully edit and style existing décor and recommend additional pieces only where they enhance the overall design.
-
Your package includes the design, sourcing, preparation, delivery, installation and select styling materials outlined within your service. Significant new décor purchases, specialty items or custom pieces outside the included scope are quoted separately and approved before purchase.

We may incorporate warm-white lighting into accessible porch décor, greenery, trees and styling elements. Taylor & Joy does not provide roofline or large-scale exterior Christmas light installation. When appropriate, we can coordinate with a specialty provider.

Taylor & Joy is designed around intimate-to-medium-scale private gatherings and celebrations—birthdays, anniversaries, showers, holiday gatherings, dinner parties, neighborhood events and other occasions where thoughtful details can completely change the guest experience.

Taylor & Joy focuses primarily on the design, preparation and setup that happen before your guests arrive. We do not provide traditional full-service day-of event coordination, although limited finishing touches and styling may be included depending on the engagement.
