Mum behind extravagant Christmas display at Love Island's Olivia and Alex Bowen's home

A Liverpool mum completely transformed the mansion of Love Island's Olivia and Alex Bowen into an "elegant" wonderland.

Jessica Owen, 32, created her decorating business, Decor Inc, back in 2012 and has been blown off her feet with business ever since. The mum-of-two from Fazakerley first approached the Love Island couple on Instagram in 2021 to ask if they would be interested in the company creating a winter wonderland in their home.

After Olivia's team looked over the work and decided she would be interested, Jessica said she had "lots of anxiety" over hoping she would like the installation.

She told The ECHO : "I get bad anxiety, but nobody has ever not liked an instillation I have done. The design is completely up to me because she trusts our judgement.

"She literally messaged us to say somebody would be there to let us in and then we just get on with it. The Bowen's are one of the nicest clients we have, they are just really lovely people."

This year the team went for an elegant and traditional green and gold colour scheme with very natural-looking trees and garlands. After the six-hour installation, Olivia shared images of her home calling the decorations "beautiful".

She said: "Hello Christmas 2022. I can’t believe this is our third Christmas in this house. Things just go so quickly. The time is flying past it’s crazy!

"This year we have absolutely gorgeous greens & golds by our favourites @decorinc.ltd & I am feeling SO Christmassy - how elegant & traditional does this look! Green & gold together is just giving me all the feels.

"I know it seems so early to some but I just want to make the most of it every year it’s so beautiful!"

The post was liked thousands of times with people commenting saying the Bowen's home was a "house of dreams" and looked "classy". Decor Inc started planning the instillation in August and said they went for a more "couture" style this year.

Jessica said: "The tree we have done this year is high class and very couture. It's not your average tree and it is something that nobody has done before.

"We had the idea in our head and did the whole thing ourselves from start to finish. What we do is a form of art, we plan every single inch of a tree, a garland arch and stairway.

"The little post box outside the Bowen's we even hand painted."

Jessica and the Decor Inc team have also done instillations for The Bruch and Cocktail Club, Doll HQ in Chester and The Real Housewives of Cheshire Star Katie Alex.
