Experience, reputation, and reliability are crucial when choosing your wedding decorator. Hiring a professional decorator who has been in business for over a decade is the best decision for this crucial element of your special event. You should be able to look at the customer reviews and the company’s extensive portfolio. A reputable wedding decor designer can even provide you with contacts from past clients that you can call for references. Your designer should represent you and your family splendidly, they should meet and exceed your expectations.
As a wedding decor designer, our goal is to create the dream wedding for our clients, and at Utopian Events, we’ll go above and beyond to do so. It is a labor of love and requires dedication and fine attention to detail. It takes a village to create the magic at each event so it is very important to visit your decorator and see not only the studio or office but the warehouse and what goes on behind the scenes. Make sure that the company has a full-time staff and that they are happy. You don’t want to support companies that mistreat their employees or those that don’t have permanent staff.
Ask your other vendors and the venue to give you feedback on the decorator. If you are dealing with a reputable company they will highly recommend it.
Another important aspect to consider about your wedding decor specialist is to look for a one-stop shop. You have to worry about many different aspects of your wedding so it is always easier if you can rely on only one company for all your decor needs.
Choose a creative company that pays attention to detail and that can create unique custom pieces for your wedding. After all, you want to make sure that your wedding is unique and different.
Search for a flexible decorator. Your wedding vision will probably change a couple of times in the early design stages so you need a designer who will pleasantly and patiently guide you, educate you, and collaborate with you throughout the process.
Lastly, you need to hire a designer that understands you and whom you can trust. Simply put, you should look for that certain chemistry with your wedding designer. It is very important since they will be with you for almost a year and they are creating such an important life celebration.
Then you must be thinking: if I have a great and reputable decorator, a one-stop shop, do I need a planner? Most definitely YES! A seasoned and experienced planner will beautifully and seamlessly orchestrate all aspects of your wedding and will ensure that the wedding festivities run smoothly and flawlessly.
A decorator and planner work side by side to create a perfect experience for the couple, family, and friends on the wedding date. An efficient planner is key for a designer since they will help plan and coordinate all vendors (including the venue) to facilitate large and elaborate setups such as ceiling treatments and room transformations.
Wera Events and Utopian Events have collaborated and worked together in dozens of weddings helping to transform their clients’ visions into realities. The combination of a creative decorator and an excellent wedding planner is the key to the success of a beautiful wedding celebration.
