Meet the Founder

ReneJohn Designs is a luxury event design studio based in Charlotte, specializing in immersive celebrations, floral artistry, curated atmospheres, and elevated guest experiences.

Founded by Rene Davenport, the company was built from a passion for transforming spaces into experiences that feel intentional, layered, emotional, and unforgettable. With over 20 years of experience in the event industry — including creative influence from both New York and the South — ReneJohn Designs blends timeless elegance with modern luxury.

What began as a love for weddings and event styling has evolved into a multidimensional creative brand offering:

  • luxury event design

  • floral styling

  • intimate social gatherings

  • experiential events

  • curated creative collaborations

  • educational workshops

  • immersive lifestyle experiences

At ReneJohn Designs, we believe design is more than décor — it is the feeling guests carry with them long after an event ends.

From romantic weddings and private celebrations to floral workshops, live jazz collaborations, and custom-designed social experiences, every detail is approached with artistry, intention, texture, lighting, and atmosphere in mind.

Signature experiences include the Bloom & Create™ series, intimate floral and lifestyle workshops designed to inspire creativity through beauty, connection, and elevated design.

Through collaborations such as the partnership with Curt’s Jazz Cafe, ReneJohn Designs also incorporates live music and sensory storytelling into select experiences — creating events that feel sophisticated, immersive, and deeply memorable.

Known for a luxury-forward aesthetic and personalized approach, ReneJohn Designs works closely with clients, venues, and creative partners to produce experiences that feel authentic, refined, and emotionally connected.

Our Philosophy

Luxury is not simply what you see.
It is what you feel.

At ReneJohn Designs, we design with layers — floral, texture, lighting, movement, music, and emotion — creating environments that invite guests to experience beauty in a deeper way.

Because the most unforgettable events are never just attended.


They are felt.

Luxury in the Layers™

“Design is not just about how a space looks - it’s about how it makes people feel. Every detail should tell a story worth remembering.”
