Founder, CEO, Event Stylist

Leah James

Hi, I’m Leah, the founder of Blooming by the Bay and a passionate event stylist with over five years of experience in the wedding and event planning industry. I’ve had the pleasure of working as an assistant wedding coordinator in Northern Michigan for the past three years, helping bring countless events to life. My love for design started early on when I pursued fashion design in college, and that foundation has deeply influenced the way I approach event decor today—focusing on color, texture, and every little detail.

Currently, I’m expanding my expertise by getting certified with the Wedding Academy for wedding and event styling, ensuring that I stay at the forefront of the latest trends and techniques. I’ve also had the incredible opportunity to attend the Wedding MBA, where I learned from industry leaders and immersed myself in hands-on classes that continue to shape my approach to creating unforgettable events.

I’m passionate about turning dreams into reality, whether it's seeing a couple’s vision come to life on their wedding day, designing a whimsical baby shower, or crafting an impactful corporate event. Every event is a unique story, and I’m dedicated to making sure that each one reflects the personal style and vision of my clients. From personalized decor to expert event planning, I love bringing beautiful moments to life.
