Thinking about booking an event?

Now is the time.

Our calendar is filling quickly, and available dates are becoming more limited as we move through the season. If you've been considering a private dinner, catering, event planning, or a special celebration, I strongly encourage you to reach out sooner rather than later.

The best events start with good planning, and securing your date early helps ensure we can give your event the attention and creativity it deserves.

Don't wait until your ideal date is gone.

Contact us today to start the conversation.

🚨‼️🚨 Conceptual renderings created to visually represent the future creative direction of Opal & Oak Event Planning & Design. 🚨🚨‼️

Some events are remembered for a moment.
Others are remembered for a feeling.

As Opal & Oak continues to grow, we are proud to officially expand into Event Planning & Design. ✨

What began through intimate private dinners and curated culinary experiences has naturally evolved into something more — creating fully immersive gatherings where hospitality, design, atmosphere, and cuisine come together as one.

From elevated private dinners and luxury celebrations to weddings, social gatherings, and brand experiences, Opal & Oak will now offer:

— Event Planning & Coordination
— Creative Direction & Design
— Tablescape & Atmosphere Styling
— Hospitality & Guest Experience Curation
— Elevated Culinary Experiences

We believe the smallest details create the most meaningful moments:
the candlelight,
the music,
the pacing of a dinner,
the texture of linen,
the way guests feel welcomed the second they arrive.

This next chapter is about creating experiences that feel intentional, immersive, and unforgettable.

Thank you for continuing to support the vision behind Opal & Oak.
This is only the beginning. ✨
