ROOTED IN CELEBRATION
We’ve always loved throwing a good party. But more than that, we love creating moments that feel personal, intentional, and unforgettable. The Social Setting is our way of sharing that joy—with beautifully styled events and details that speak volumes.
Our Story
At The Social Setting, we believe the magic is in the details—and that milestones, no matter how big or small, deserve to be celebrated with care, color, and intention.
Founded by mother-daughter duo Michelle and Erin O’Brien, The Social Setting is built on a shared love for hosting, styling, and creating moments that matter. Whether it’s an intimate dinner, a balloon-filled bash, or a themed baby shower, we pour our hearts into making each gathering unforgettable.
So…why the elephant?
Meet our brand muse: a charming, party-loving elephant. Inspired by the old saying “an elephant never forgets,” our mascot is a symbol of the lasting memories we hope to create for every client. Erin, the creative force behind our signature style, is known for her deeply thoughtful nature—she remembers the little things, gives her all, and always goes the extra mile to make people feel special. That intention is what sets us apart.
