PokesByMarcy Events, A Birthday Launch That Feels Like Pure Magic
There is a different kind of joy that comes with launching a website for an event designer. You are not just arranging pages, you are setting a stage. At JoiB Consulting, that is the work we love most, building strategic websites and systems for event stylists, wedding planners, and creatives across the DMV who want their online presence to feel as elevated as the experiences they create.
This time, the timing could not have been better.
On her actual birthday, we pressed publish on a brand new custom website for PokesByMarcy Events. Not a refresh of an old template, not a quick fix, but a full build from the ground up for Marcia, the creative force behind the brand.
From the beginning, the vision was clear, create an online home for luxury event styling that whispers elegance, carries calm confidence, and shows exactly why her clients trust her with their most important moments.
Starting with the heart, strategy before scrolling
From day one, we treated this as a strategy project, not just a design project.
We began by mapping out who PokesByMarcy Events really serves
Busy brides dreaming of effortless romance in the DMV
Hosts who want that wow factor without feeling overwhelmed
Visionary clients across Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia who need an event stylist who understands both culture and detail
Only then did we begin shaping the structure of the site.
The result is a sleek, minimalist home page that leads with clarity.
A bold line names exactly what she does, Event Styling and Design, followed by a tagline that captures the brand promise, Designing Elevated, Unforgettable Moments.
The hero section does the work of a strong first conversation
We design luxury events across DC, Maryland, and Virginia. From weddings to private celebrations, every detail is styled with intention and elegance. Your vision, expertly brought to life.
No guessing, no fluff. It reads like a confident answer to someone searching, I need a luxury event designer in the DMV who will understand my vision.
A portfolio that pulls you in and does not let go
Marcia’s work is her strongest proof, so her portfolio needed to do more than showcase pretty images. It needed to position her as the go to choice for luxury wedding design and event styling in the DMV.
We created a curated portfolio experience that
Highlights weddings that feel like poetry in petals
Showcases intimate celebrations wrapped in warmth and intention
Presents each event as a complete story, from tablescape to lighting
The layout is immersive but not overwhelming. Visitors can move directly into the type of event that matters to them, whether that is a traditional engagement, a milestone birthday, or an elegant wedding.
For anyone searching phrases like luxury wedding planner DMV or elegant event decor in Virginia, this portfolio is not just a gallery, it is an invitation to imagine their own celebration styled with the same level of care.
The quiet power of HoneyBook behind the scenes
Front end beauty is important, but for a boutique event design studio, the systems behind the scenes matter just as much. Marcia needed a website that not only looked elevated, but also worked as a strategic tool for her business.
We integrated HoneyBook directly into the inquiry flow so that
Every Reserve Your Date or Inquire Now button leads to a thoughtful, streamlined form
Each form captures essential details such as event date, location, guest count, and overall vision
Leads arrive organized in a pipeline that reflects how Marcia actually wants to qualify and book clients
This is where strategic website design and systems intersect. Instead of losing time in back and forth emails, PokesByMarcy Events now uses the website and HoneyBook together to
Filter in the right clients
Protect her calendar
Set the tone for a high touch client experience from the very first contact
The site is not just a digital brochure, it is a working part of her event business.
Launching on her birthday, a full circle moment
On launch day, Marcia sent a photo of her birthday cake with the new site pulled up on her phone. Her message was simple, It feels like me.
That is the moment we aim for. When a client looks at their new website and sees not just pretty visuals, but a true reflection of the business they have been building in real time.
For PokesByMarcy Events, this site is more than a milestone. It is a front row seat to the next chapter of her brand, a digital home that finally matches the sophistication and heart she brings to every event she styles across the DMV.

Together we can
Clarify who you serve and how your website should support that
