Client + Event Specialist

Hello! My name is Rebecca Carlyle and I have been with the Prairie Lane team since the summer of 2022! I am a natural born planner & have a keen eye for design. I also have been planning the prettiest parties & designing jaw dropping events since 2017 with Serendipitous Events as the lead IA+SD event planner! I have a vision & am always ready for a challenge & am looking forward to creating your dream event with our inventory of endless rentals!

I strive to create personalized & unique experiences tailored to each client’s needs. Whether an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, I am dedicated to excellence & committed to delivering seamless events. Every event deserves to be celebrated with meticulous attention to detail & creative flair & transformed into an unforgettable experience.

When I’m not working on the prettiest events in SD+beyond, you can find me at the nearest country concert, enjoying the girl-mom life with my two daughters & always scheming up our next family or solo adventure!

MONET ERNSTE

Event Stylist

Hi, I’m Monet and yes, just like the artist!
Creativity runs deep in everything I do. I’ve spent over seven years as a florist, and my love for weddings, events, and parties continues to grow. I work with Prairie Lane, where I help bring events to life, from pulling vintage rentals to assisting with setups — making sure every detail feels special and thoughtfully styled. I also bring an artistic flair through hand-lettered calligraphy on mirrors and signage, little touches that add a unique charm.

When I’m not working with the Prairie Lane team, I run my own creative business focused on floral preservation. Whether it’s blooms from a wedding, a memorial, or a maternity moment, I preserve them in handcrafted pieces that help people hold onto life’s most meaningful days.

Being named after Claude Monet feels more than fitting, I’ve always seen the world through an artistic lens, and I love using that creativity to help others capture memories in beautiful, lasting ways.
