A Community for Wedding Industry Professionals.

Atelier Gathering exists to bring creatives together through intentional connection, thoughtful education, and inspiring experiences.

What began as intimate workshops and styled shoots has evolved into something deeper — a community designed to support photographers, planners, florists, videographers, content creators, and wedding professionals at every stage of their journey.

Through curated events, meaningful relationships, and ongoing opportunities for growth, we’re creating a space where creativity and community coexist.

OUR WHY

After seeking local workshops around the Columbus area, we realized there was a lack of resources and a huge need for continuing education in our rapidly growing city. As new talent emerges, we see the opportunity to provide something no one else is doing. By combining Courtney’s love for events & styling, and Allison’s heart for education, Atelier Gathering was born.
