About Cory Winn Design

We cultivate dreams where weddings and interiors intersect. As designers, we find ourselves driven by a variety of inspirations. However, one place holds a remarkable influence on our approach to wedding design: the world of interior design. Here, beauty and functionality intertwine, shaping our perspective in ways that go beyond aesthetics.

Meet Cory Winn

The Heart and Soul Behind CWD

From a young age, I’ve been enchanted by the magic of design and organization. My passion ignited at an early age as I constantly rearranged my room, color-coded my closet, and indulged in innovative projects like painting walls with patterns and revamping furniture just for fun.

My journey into the world of design was shaped by the strong influences of my family’s matriarchs. My Southern Belle grandmother, a true green thumb and the president of The Garden Club, instilled in me a deep love for nature and all things beautiful. Meanwhile, my mother, a visionary in her own right, started her own interior design company when I was 10, where I eagerly soaked up every lesson and technique. Between the two of them, I learned about planting in the garden, designing floral arrangements, luxury linens, and hanging wall paper.

With over two decades of experience in the wedding planning industry, my favorite avenue has always been the creative process. I thrive on combining design elements—from lighting to draping—to crafting unique and unforgettable experiences for my clients. We strive to step outside of the box of mainstream weddings and offer more interactive moments and unforgettable memories based on the foundation of exquisite entertainment. To us, experiences far outlast the test of time.

As life unfolded, I found myself drawn to the world of professional organizing and interior design, where I discovered my true calling. This journey has been deeply personal; as a single mom of two, I’m passionate about supporting other single moms. This is why I am committed to donating a percentage of every package purchased to a local single mom’s ministry, a cause very close to my heart. We are unapologetically willing to step outside of the box both in weddings and the home as we strive to provide unique ideas that allow for more distinctive events.

Meet Mary Bracey

Interior Design Consultant

Mary and Cory have been friends since Sunday School, dating back 35 years, and have been best buddies ever since. Cory kicked off her wedding career, meanwhile Mary ignited her journey in all things interiors. Together, they are a force to be reckoned with and love to play off their individual styles and ideas.

Mary graduated from Salem College, where she received her degree in Interior Design over ten years ago, and has been working on a variety of projects in North Carolina, including her shop selling treasures and finds from any Estate Sale she can get her hands on. She currently resides in Chapel Hill, NC, with her husband, two littles, and two furry friends. It was a no-brainer for Cory to partner with Mary as a veteran designer.
