Long before Oak and Magnolia had a name, there was a love for bringing people together and a refusal to let a single detail go unconsidered. For Latoya Ade, that instinct became a calling. Oak and Magnolia Events is the work of her heart. What began as designing celebrations for the people she loves grew into a studio built for couples who want their wedding to feel as rare as the love behind it.

Creative Director & Founder
A Calling, Not Just a Career
Heritage shapes her eye the way conviction shapes her standard. Raised in a culture where celebration carries weight and beauty is never an afterthought, she brings that same reverence to every couple, whatever their story, whatever their background. When the planning is done for the day, she is with her family and in her garden, building the kind of life she has the honor of helping her couples begin.
Every couple is met with care, every detail with intention, because a wedding is more than an event. It is the beginning of a covenant, and nothing about that is small.
Faith is the foundation of how she works.
Oak and Magnolia is built for the couple who has worked hard for a life they are proud of, and wants a wedding that reflects it. The kind of people who value their time too much to spend it chasing vendors, and value their day too much to spend it managing one.
