Rachel Valenza  

CREATIVE DIRECTOR

​

Rachel is a Charlotte, North Carolina native who relocated to Richmond in 2020. She is the creative mind behind all of our marketing designs. With a degree in Interior Architecture and Design from Queens University of Charlotte, her love of aesthetics found its perfect home at Dover Hall. Before joining the Dover Hall team in 2021, Rachel was the Director of Weddings and Events at Vogue Flowers and managed over 400 weddings. While at Vogue, her love of weddings and building strong client relationships was born. Her favorite part of working in wedding sales is walking side-by-side with clients and providing direction and organization during such an exciting life season! Rachel has a deep passion for learning about other cultures and has traveled to over 30 countries. Her favorite place was Marrakesh, Morocco, because of its colorful souks, Moorish architecture, and delicious cuisine. In her free time, you can find Rachel creating floral arrangements with blooms fresh from her backyard cutting garden that her husband Vincent helped her create.
