My name is Shawna L. Norris, owner of Chic Dreams Events and proud mother of a young adult.

For years, I’ve curated meaningful, elevated experiences through my event planning business. But beyond the logistics and details, what I truly love is bringing people together.

The Velvet Table was born from my desire to connect with like-minded women who simply want to go outside more, look good, feel good, and enjoy life intentionally. It’s about creating space for confidence, conversation, and real connection — no special occasion required.

I created The Velvet Table for one simple reason: to build confidence, cultivate connection, and remind women that gathering beautifully is always worth it.
