Hello! I’m Mary Barrett, Owner & Lead Designer of Mardee’s Design & Consulting, serving the Tacoma, Lakewood, and South Puget Sound region for over 20 years. I specialize in creating beautiful, meaningful, and well-planned experiences — whether it’s a joyful celebration or a tender memorial.
My business combines two areas of expertise:

I bring a calm, organized, and creative presence to every event, treating each client like family and ensuring their vision becomes reality.
✨ Funeral & Memorial Graphic Design

I provide quick turnaround (often 24–48 hours), professional quality, and compassionate support during one of life’s most difficult moments.
At Mardee’s, every design is intentional, heartfelt, and crafted with excellence. I look forward to connecting with local businesses, churches, funeral homes, and community organizations that want a dependable partner they can trust.
Let’s collaborate and support our community—together.
I started planning in events, decorating and desktop publishing while working with my husband as he pastored churches in Seattle, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Kansas City and Tacoma. I've been planning events for approximately 31 years. In Kansas City in 2004, my daughter and I started Mardee's Design and Consulting, LLC. We relaunched Mardee’s to Lakewood, WA in 2015.
