Meet Carley!
Carley is the owner and visionary behind Carley Grace Designs. A proud native of Memphis, Tennessee, she grew up an Ole Miss Rebel and graduated from the University of Mississippi with a degree in Hospitality Management and Event Planning. Carley began her career in Fort Worth, Texas, where she immersed herself in events and embroidery.
From a young age, Carley has found joy in creating and bringing people together through meaningful, thoughtfully designed items for your home, events, and little ones. She has always been drawn to the details - the way personalization and creativity can transform something simple into something uniquely yours.
Carley Grace Designs was born from that passion: an embroidery studio dedicated to creating personalized keepsakes and unforgettable guest experiences through live on-site embroidery that brings personalization to life in real time. From baby showers to retail pop-ups, she brings a fully equipped embroidery studio directly to you.
After three and a half years in Texas, she felt a calling to return home and launch Carley Grace Designs. Her vision is to create one-of-a-kind keepsakes and meaningful experiences through the art of embroidery.
Meet Fort!
The adorable shop dog of Carley Grace Event Planning and Designs! Carley found Fort in the middle of nowhere Texas, and they have been inseparable ever since. This spirited Australian Shepherd has a wild side, but his gentle heart shines through in everything he does.
Fort loves spending time at the family ranch, where he plays with the horses, splashes in the lake, chases after the chickens, and enjoys golf cart rides around the property. Raised by Carley, he’s been her loyal sidekick on all of life’s adventures, even becoming a pro at napping next to the embroidery machines. He adores car rides, sneaking treats when no one is looking, and visiting The Grove in the fall for football games.
Fort brings a special charm to the Carley Grace Event Planning and Designs family, adding joy and laughter everyday!
