MEET EBONY PEOPLES-WORDLAW

With a passion for celebrating love and life’s most meaningful moments, Ebony has transformed her creativity, eye for design, and gift for organization into a distinguished career in weddings, events, and entertaining. A graduate of Michigan State University with a degree in elementary education, Ebony seamlessly transitioned from the classroom to the event industry, where her attention to detail and genuine love for people have become the foundation of her success.

Ebony is the owner and principal planner of Ebony Peoples Events & Design, an award-winning planning and design boutique founded in Dallas, Texas, in 2011 after beginning her event planning journey in 2009. Known for blending timeless elegance with modern sophistication, she intentionally partners with a limited number of wedding and event clients each year, allowing every celebration to receive a highly personalized planning experience. Today, she proudly serves clients in Atlanta and destinations beyond.

Over the years, Ebony’s work has been featured in publications including Ebony, Munaluchi Bride, and Modern Luxury Weddings. She has also been honored as a 2021 Dynamic Woman and a 2018 Woman of Power and Influence by The Atlantan. These recognitions reflect her commitment to creating thoughtfully designed celebrations that are as seamless as they are unforgettable.

While weddings and milestone events remain at the heart of her business, Ebony believes that life’s everyday moments deserve to be celebrated, too. Through recipes, entertaining ideas, tablescapes, seasonal inspiration, and hosting tips, she encourages others to gather often, celebrate intentionally, and create meaningful memories at home. Her philosophy is simple: every day is a day worth celebrating!

When she’s not designing celebrations, Ebony enjoys spending time with her husband, Jovan, their son, Sebastian, and their pup, Chance. Whether she’s trying a new recipe, styling a beautiful table, exploring nature, or listening to ’90s R&B, she finds inspiration in the simple moments that make life worth celebrating.
