About
Soigné Styling is a boutique creative direction and styling house dedicated to elevating weddings, hospitality, and editorial narratives through intentional, heirloom-driven design.
Led by founder and creative director Jordan McMills, our work begins in the micro — the light in a preparation suite, the quiet movement of hands arranging florals, the shimmer of vintage glassware — and unfolds into a cohesive, cinematic visual story.
We collaborate with discerning couples, planners, photographers, and boutique hotels to shape experiences that feel quiet, tactile, and deeply personal. Each commission is crafted with an editorial eye and grounded in a philosophy of quiet luxury. Whether styling a wedding morning, shaping a brand’s visual narrative, or producing an editorial campaign, our focus remains unwavering:
to create moments that feel lived-in, artful, and emotionally resonant.

The Wedding Prep Ritual
A serene, curated beginning to the wedding day.

This bespoke experience refines the preparation suite, choreographs the atmosphere, and creates emotionally rich moments that anchor the entire day. -

Editorial & Brand Styling
Creative direction, set styling & visual narrative creation.
Soigné partners with photographers, planners, venues, artists, and boutique brands to craft iconic, publication-ready imagery. From concept development to day-of styling and art direction, every frame is shaped with clarity, composition, and emotional resonance. -

Hospitality Experience Design
Styling and guest-experience refinement for boutique hotels.
Rooted in hospitality principles and editorial polish, this service elevates the atmospheres of boutique hotels and heritage venues. Soigné shapes guest-facing spaces, seasonal vignettes, bar carts, suites, and micro-experiences while producing social-ready content and marketing imagery. -

Creative Direction for Weddings
A refined, cohesive aesthetic vision for couples planning independently.
The Soigné Design Direction shapes the visual and atmospheric language of your celebration — palette, texture, candlelight, florals, and the emotional architecture that defines your reception environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Wedding day styling focuses on the visual and atmospheric narrative of the day — particularly intimate moments that shape how the experience feels and how it is remembered.
Unlike planning, which manages logistics and timelines, or floral design, which centers on botanical elements, Soigné provides creative direction and styling oversight: curating objects, refining spaces, and composing moments so the day unfolds with intention, calm, and visual cohesion.
Our role often lives at the intersection of art direction, editorial styling, and experiential design, supporting both the emotional experience and the resulting imagery.
-
Yes. Hotel and destination spaces are a core part of our work.
We frequently style boutique hotel suites, historic properties, private residences, and destination getting-ready environments throughout New Orleans and beyond. Our approach is sensitive to architecture, light, and scale — enhancing the space rather than overpowering it.
This is particularly valuable in hotel settings, where thoughtful styling can elevate both the guest experience and the imagery produced for personal archives, editorial use, or hospitality marketing.
-
Absolutely — collaboration is central to how we work.
Soigné often partners closely with planners, photographers, content creators, and venues, providing creative direction and styling support that complements their expertise. Our involvement allows planners to remain focused on logistics and guest experience, while photographers benefit from refined, intentional compositions already in place.
We are accustomed to stepping in as a creative partner, not a competing voice, and tailoring our scope to support the broader team.
-
Yes — intimate and micro weddings are one of our specialties.
Smaller guest counts often allow for greater intentionality, detail, and atmosphere, which aligns naturally with our work. Whether hosted at a boutique hotel, private residence, or destination venue, we approach intimate celebrations with the same level of narrative thought and refinement as larger events.
Many couples engage Soigné specifically to ensure that a smaller celebration still feels considered, elevated, and visually cohesive.
-
Soigné is based in Louisiana and works most frequently in New Orleans and surrounding regions, including historic districts, boutique hotels, and destination properties throughout the Gulf South.
That said, we also accept select destination projects — particularly those aligned with our editorial, hospitality, or experiential design focus. Each commission is evaluated for creative fit, scope, and travel considerations.
-
Our work is fully bespoke and varies based on scope, location, and level of involvement.
Most clients begin with a starting investment in the low four figures, with comprehensive creative direction and on-site styling reflecting a higher range depending on complexity and duration.
We believe in transparency where helpful and discretion where appropriate. During inquiry, we’ll discuss your priorities and confirm whether our approach aligns with your vision and expectations before moving forward.
If you’re unsure which level of support is right for your event or project, we’re happy to begin with a thoughtful conversation.
