The Heart

Behind XVI

Hayley Ballard | Founder & Planner

I’m Hayley Ballard, founder of XVI Planning. I believe the best events feel personal, thoughtful, and welcoming, with details that reflect the people behind them.

My experience in wedding planning and coordination inspired me to create XVI, where I help clients plan weddings, social celebrations, and corporate events with care and intention. I bring organization, clear communication, and a calm presence to the process so you can feel supported and enjoy what you’re creating.

The Meaning

Behind XVI

The name XVI holds deep personal meaning, honoring a number connected the memory of a dear friend. That connection is at the heart of my work: bringing people together and making space for moments that matter.
