Our Promise to You

Hello there! I’m Nicole, Reflections Lead Planner and Designer, and owner of White Laurel Design, Co – nothing captivates me more than flowers, food, family, friends and a fun party (not particularly in that order- although I do love exquisite flowers)! My love of planning (and all things pretty) traces back to my Mother and Grandmother. From hosting tea parties in my playhouse when I was 5 years old, to planning the company Christmas parties, I was always up front and center to donate my time and efforts to the decorating cause! You know it’s the southern thing to do – make spaces pretty, and make people feel welcome!
The 25 years I have spent as software implementation manager has more than prepared me to think quickly on my feet, manage large groups of people, and reboot and restart when needed! Even though I have always enjoyed interaction with my customers, my dream was to own a design company. I decided my genuine love of people, conversation, planning and design would best serve me as an event planner! So here I am living this amazing life, and this thing I once called a ‘hobby’ I now call a passionate career and business!
If you spend more than 30 seconds with me, you will find I have a flair for chatting and a love of heartfelt stories. I believe these traits along with intense attention to detail, allow me to create a more personal and intimate gathering. At any event you will find me meandering through the crowd with a watchful eye, a warm smile, and my trusty check list making sure you and your guests are enjoying themselves immensely and having FUN! Everything I do, I like to approach with a joyful heart, whether its leading our team through the tiny details and the grand overview, or simply helping a bride and groom make the complex choice of the best cake flavor (this is the hard part of the job – but hey! Someone has to do it)!
When I am not planning the next big event, you will find me at home with my husband Patrick, and my yellow Labrador, Winston, enjoying a good book on my front porch, or relaxing and sharing recipes by our outdoor firepit with friends and family.
I look forward to getting to know YOU!
My husband and I got married at Reflections at the Pond back in August, and there are not enough words to describe how perfect our special day was! Throughout the entire planning process Nicole and the Reflections Team stood right by our side and provided so much support in every little detail. The venue is a hidden gem tucked away in a stunning location that all of our guests enjoyed. Together, the natural beauty of the pond and surrounding landscape combined with the stunning designs of White Laurel created an absolutely breathtaking site for the ceremony. And the reception space looked like a dream come to life – every detail was perfect, and the space was well suited to accommodate all of our guests. And thanks to Nicole and the wonderful Reflections Team the entire day ran smoothly from start to finish. All of our bridal party, family, and friends were able to fully enjoy the evening without lifting a finger, and I felt so taken care of. I had not a single worry the whole day and was able to soak in every moment with all of my loved ones beside me. Nicole made sure of it. My mother and I cannot thank her enough for everything that she did for us – you name it and she can do it! Everything from our beautiful floral arrangements and bouquets, to the lovely designs of the ceremony site, to the gorgeous reception space of my dreams, and every little detail in between. I can’t imagine a more perfect day, and I am forever grateful to Nicole and her team for making the wedding of my dreams a reality. I would recommend this stunning venue and White Laurel Design to every bride!
“I really cannot say enough about the wonderful ladies at Reflections and they have the most gorgeous venue . . . They have taken so much stress away from me and my family and made every step of planning fun. I would recommend 10 out of 10!”
“Nicole and her team . . . are the best! The space itself is beautiful. We were supposed to use the outdoor venue but got rained out. They moved it indoors last minute and make it even more amazing than I hoped. They work well and are in contact with all vendors. Anything we wanted, we got it! The house on site is a lovely, comfortable place for the bridal party to get ready. Flowers, decor timeline, you name it. My whole day was flawless and more perfect than I could’ve dreamed! Truly a stress free time.”
“My wedding day was something I had always dreamed of as a girl. When my family, and my now husband, toured Reflections at the Pond, we knew this is where we wanted to say “i do”! Donna and Nicole were as thrilled with the details of our special day as we were, so I couldn’t imagine choosing any other venue. There were no requests to big or to small, they weren’t willing to tackle and execute perfectly! My wedding day was perfect and it was thanks to these two amazing ladies, they have a heart for each of their brides and their future spouses! I wouldn’t choose anywhere BUT Reflections at the Pond!”
“Nicole and her team were fantastic! They made my dream wedding a reality and made everything so beautiful! They both went above and beyond and I can never express how grateful I am for them. They were very professional and worked hours on end to ensure everything was perfect! I would highly recommend Reflections at the Pond for your special day or any big celebration headed your way!”
“It was an amazing day!!!!! Thank you ladies for all your hard work!!! We are so happy with the weekend events.”
Our daughter was married at Reflections at the Pond this past fall. From our very first meeting, Nicole and her staff were very attentive and helpful. Any concerns were answered, and Tate’s wishes were always met. As the mom, I felt confident that they would make it a wonderful wedding, and they did! Decorations, flowers and many special details were fashioned all to make Tate & Kevin’s perfect wedding day! Thank you. ♥️
