Creative Director

Creative Director Steve Welsh brings a rich arsenal of artistic skill to
A Legendary Event. Welsh joined
A Legendary Event over ten years ago as a design consultant. With a Fine Arts degree and over 15 years of experience in home building, remodeling and decorating, Steve was an ideal candidate for more. Within a year, Steve’s talent flourished and he was promoted to the role of Creative Director. Now he oversees all décor elements of the Design, Floral, and Catering Departments. Steve works tirelessly to ensure that each event achieves a fresh, cohesive look. He describes his design philosophy as “Creating atmospheres that positively impact people by evoking an emotional response such as serenity, energy, romance, or excitement.”


Steve employs his design philosophy by utilizing clean symmetrical lines in furniture placement and decorative items. He prefers an unencumbered look rather than an overly ornate one. “My design inspiration comes from everywhere. 

My concepts often spring from a client’s single word or image and an avalanche of ideas begin.”

He also looks to his palette for inspiration. He currently lists his color favorites as rich hues of copper, persimmon, spice, gold, mango and chocolate. 

Steve continues to cultivate his design aesthetic both home and abroad. As a devout traveler and purveyor of beauty, he brings home unique and authentic treasures from some of the world’s most remote places. Beautiful baskets, clay pots and hand blown glassware from various regions rest on our warehouse shelves, patiently awaiting his next design.

Staying ahead of the current trends in event design is one of Steve’s most valuable contributions to “The Legendary Look.” “Right now the trend is less is more,” Welsh says. “We are using fewer materials in our production process and utilizing our event spaces in unexpected ways. This creates a unique look from a design perspective and also helps us to reduce our carbon foot print.”



Tony Conway, President and Owner of A Legendary Event, says “Steve has an innate sense of understanding the client’s vision and exceeding their expectations.

He has a great talent for listening to what the client wants and materializing those wishes. Regardless of theme, location, or budget - Steve always sets out to achieve the Legendary ‘wow’ factor.”

In addition to creating a unified design voice for the entire company, Steve re-designed and oversaw the entire renovation of A Legendary Event’s new building. Steve’s Retro-Modern design concept is apropos for the revitalized 50,000 square foot industrial building located on Atlanta’s “The West Side Design District.”
