What are Event Design Assistants?

Event Design Assistants are professionals who support event planners and designers in creating visually appealing and cohesive event experiences. Their responsibilities often include assisting with décor setup, sourcing materials, coordinating with vendors, and ensuring the design vision is executed on-site. They work closely with the lead event designer to help bring creative concepts to life, whether for weddings, corporate events, or parties. This role requires a keen eye for detail, creativity, and strong organizational skills.

What are some common challenges Event Design Assistants face when executing event setups, and how can they be overcome?

Event Design Assistants often encounter challenges such as tight setup timelines, last-minute client changes, and coordinating with multiple vendors. To overcome these, it’s important to stay organized by maintaining detailed checklists, establishing clear communication channels with the team, and being adaptable to shifting priorities. Proactive planning and a collaborative mindset help ensure that creative vision and logistical requirements are balanced, resulting in successful event execution even under pressure.

Job description

Wedgewood Weddings is looking for a Wedding & Event Sign Designer to help bring our events to life through custom signage and visual details.

You’ll spend your time designing and producing event signage—from welcome signs and seating charts to bar menus and custom displays—then seeing it through from production to installation. Some days you’re in the studio working in Canva, prepping materials, and building out designs; other days you’re on-site installing signage and helping bring the full event setup together before guests arrive.

You’re both creative and hands-on. You care about how things look, but also how they get done. You’re comfortable managing multiple projects, working against deadlines, and adjusting quickly when details change.

You take pride in the behind-the-scenes work that makes events feel seamless. You stay organized, keep your workspace efficient, and execute with accuracy—because you know the smallest details are often the most visible to guests.

You enjoy being part of a team that builds something real from start to finish—and you like seeing your work come to life at every event.

What You’ll Do
  • Create custom event signage including seating charts, welcome signs, bar menus, place, cards, and more

  • Create designs in Canva that align with each client’s event style and vision

  • Proof signage for spelling, layout, formatting, and overall presentation

  • Produce signage using:

    • Cricut and vinyl application

    • Printing and mounting techniques

    • Acrylic, paper, and other event materials

  • Manage signage production timelines and prioritize multiple projects at once

  • Organize and maintain signage materials, tools, and inventory

  • Create showroom samples and mockups for the design studio

  • Assist with event load-ins, installations, and breakdowns

  • Install signage and support overall event setup onsite

  • Work closely with floral designers, venue teams, and other event staff

What We’re Looking For
  • Strong working knowledge of Canva

  • Experience with Cricut and vinyl production

  • Good eye for layout, typography, color, and visual composition

  • Strong attention to detail and pride in quality work

  • Ability to multitask and manage deadlines in a fast-paced environment

  • Team-oriented mindset with a hands-on work ethic

  • Comfortable lifting up to 30–40 lbs and being on your feet throughout the day

  • Comfortable working both in-studio and onsite at events

  • Weekend availability required

Bonus if you have:

  • Experience in weddings, events, floral, or creative production

  • Knowledge of print production and finishing techniques

  • Experience working with acrylic, signage materials, or large-format installs

A Divine Event Design Studio is part of the Wedgewood Weddings family, a family-owned company that’s been rethinking the wedding industry since 1986. With 70+ venues nationwide and growing, we’re known for delivering beautiful events with a planning process that actually feels easy for our couples.

Divine Event Studio focuses on full-service floral and event design, partnering closely with our venue teams to create cohesive, elevated experiences from concept through installation. From the first design idea to the final setup, we play a key role in bringing each event to life.

We’re a team of people who genuinely enjoy what we do and take pride in creating events that feel seamless, fun, and well-executed. It’s a hands-on, team-oriented environment where everyone contributes, and there’s real opportunity to grow as the design side of the business continues to expand.

The important extras:

  • As is typical in the hospitality industry, this position requires regular availability to work evening, weekend, and holiday shifts, as well as shifts of more than 8 hours and workweeks of more than 40 hours.

  • Wedgewood Weddings provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment and prohibits discrimination and harassment of any type without regard to race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, disability status, genetics, protected veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other characteristic protected by federal, state, or local laws.
