    Elena - you made the vision for my wedding truly come to life! It was more than we could have ever hoped for! You were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. You came highly recommended by multiple friends, and we were not disappointed. I was in awe as soon as I walked into the room. Our photographer said it was the most beautiful reception decor she had ever seen. Thank you so much for all of your hard work! We would highly recommend you to anyone getting married.

    One word to describe Elena and Lavish Events by Design...PHENOMENAL. She went above and beyond for us over and over again. Worked with our budget, helped with ideas, and made my vision come to life! Dealt with last minute changes and requests like a pro. She took a huge chunk of stress off my shoulders, I could have never pulled off such a beautiful and elegant affair without her. Absolutely recommend to EVERYONE. Thank you Elena for all that you did!

  • Elena talent is five star. My wedding excelled my expectations. Elena excelled beyond what I had asked for ,and both myself and guests were amazed at how beautiful, dazzling and our elegant black tie event at The Windemere Manor looked. She was always available anytime, always got back to me quickly and is so easy and kind to talk to. I would recommend Elena in a second.

    We had the honour of hiring Elena to be our decorator for our wedding, Sept 24th. She was incredibly kind, patient and knowledgeable!

Our guests were in awe of how nice everything looked! Our decor exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend Elena for any if your decorating needs!!! Thank you so very much! Much love, Mrs & Mrs Jackson-Awcock 🙂

  • Elena is absolutely incredible. I couldn't have dreamt of a better experience if I tried. Her decor was breathtaking to the point where I broke down in tears when I saw it, and her professionalism is beyond what I ever would have expected. She went above and beyond for us and deserves every ounce of recognition she gets and more. Everyone talked about the beautiful job she did and I couldn't possibly be happier. Thank you for making our fairytale wedding come to life. You have our undying gratitude for everything you did for us.

    I can't say enough about how amazing Elena was throughout the entire invitation design process. She was helpful with suggestions and ideas and incredibly patient. I loved that she was as much of a perfectionist as I was. Her friendliness, personal touches, and attention made it feel like I was dealing with a friend and not a business. The invitations turned out beautifully and I've received countless feedback from friends and family about how lovely the invitations are. I'd recommend Elena to anyone!

    No words could ever explain how well Elena made my dream come true. We had a big hiccup with a previous decorator that left a sour taste in my mouth and that is when I found Elena. She was very understanding of what had happened to us, and wanted to ensure we had her trust 100%. Communication was very prompt and very organized. My vision came to life! She went above and beyond, her work is very meticulous. I would recommend Lavish Events by Design to anyone seeking decor for any event, her work will not disappoint. Thank you for giving me the most beautiful wedding I could have ever imagined! Brandon & Amy Ade 07.09.2016

  • No words could ever fully explain how special Elena was to our big day. She turned our vision into a reality and all the love she pours into her job shows on everything she does! My husband and I were blown away with the end result and received compliments all night and even into the next day. I could literally go on forever but I'll try to keep it short. Highly highly highly recommend. Thank you for everything girl, I couldn't have had my dream wedding without you and your magic ❤❤❤❤

    Elena was simply amazing. She worked so hard to bring my dream wedding to life! My hall decor, flowers and centre pieces were just simple stunning all thanks to Elena! She listened to what I wanted and I wasn't anything but happy with the end result of my wedding decor. Elena put everything I wanted and incorporated her own touch which made it that much more beautiful. I always look back in the photos of my hall and can't believe that it was my actual wedding and how beautiful it looked. I recommend lavish and Elena and will use them again for other events!!! Thank you again Elena!!

    I am so excited to write this review! I was SOO happy and pleased with Elena's work. I couldn't believe how easy it was to trust her with every decision I made to make this event happen! She is compassionate and caring and you can see that through her work and the way she communicates with you. Don't think twice about having Elena be your decorator!

    In my experience with seeing the detailed work that Elena does is fantastic. The personal touch that one can put on any event. I look forward to working with her over the years as she truly puts that "Glam" and Professional touch on everything. Hands down 5 Star review you would be foolish to shop anywhere else.
