Parsonage Events

outstanding and classic and timeless. The professionalism and artistry is by far the best. This particular time we contracted with them was for our family wedding (2nd time we have entrusted them for a personal wedding) however, I have used Parsonage Events professionally for many years from private donor events to large galas and they get the "vision" we are going for each and every time! I will share photos when I get them! Thank you Sara!

ication was sometimes inconsistent and difficult. But when we met in person at their studio we had a great time coming up with ideas for the look. Would recommend!

n for the wedding and really took our feedback and ideas into consideration. We really adjusted our estimate a number of times as the date got closer based on our time and budget, and she was unflappable and meticulous in keeping up! And she came up with some fantastic last-minute saves for our seating assignments and tables that really brought the decor to the next level. On the day of, Sarah's team arrived early to set up and finished early. Our vision for the ceremony and reception were realized beyond our wildest dreams. It was truly breathtaking to witness the ballroom after they had decked it out. I could have never done on my own what Sarah so effortlessly was able to imagine. She and the Parsonage are a wildly talented team who created a truly magical experience for our guests. Thank you!

concepts, and overall feeling we wanted for our day. However, beyond that, I let the team run with it in terms of specific flowers, setup, and arrangement specifics. And I'm so glad I did! They surpassed all of our visions and thoughts on possibilities, taking a completely raw space and transforming it into a lush, candlelit, welcoming space. Everything was overflowing with blooms and we were just blown away. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the space looked - from the chandeliers hung from the ceiling, to the overflowing blooms on the tables, to the candles everywhere, to everyone's incredible bouquets - it was just exquisite. Thank you Liz and team, for everything you did for us!

ther vision boards based on phone conversations and photos I sent her of what I liked. She continuously updated the board based on my feedback and designed two centerpiece mockups to ensure I was happy with what her vision of our event would be. When my husband and I walked into our reception tent we were blown away. She transformed a huge, plain white tent into a beautiful room - our guests kept commenting on how gorgeous the floral design was. Although we were in different states and had to rely on email/phone calls to coordinate, the end result was still so phenomenal and we consider Parsonage an A+ team.

as to add to the decor. She understood my desire for local, more natural looking flowers, and she delivered. Our flowers were perfect. One of the cutest additions was a garland for our four flower girls to carry together, and it looked perfect.

ere blown away when we saw our wedding tent and I was extremely happy with my bouquet. It was gorgeous. Liz and the whole Parsonage team always listened to our wants, were usually really quick to respond, and ultimately delivered us the most beautiful flowers I could've imagined! Thank you so much :)

n it came to flowers, and helped us work through ideas and options. We went over some flowers and colors we liked during our consultation, and decided to leave a lot of the design up to Parsonage. We're so glad we did, we were thrilled with how everything came together, it was better than we imagined! The staff have an excellent eye for design, from the colors to the containers they used.

l in love and they made me feel awesome and worked with me, couldn't have asked for anyone better.

art from a few vague concepts, they can run with it and develop something more beautiful than you can ever dream of. I had them do my floral arrangements for my wedding, in addition to renting a number of their pieces, and we received so many compliments on how beautiful everything looked. The staff hand picked all my flowers from Michigan farms, then painstakingly crafted beautiful, one-of-a-kind bouquets and centerpieces. If you want to make your wedding actually look like something you'd see on Pintrest, you simply must hire Parsonage!

turned out beautiful and they were so organized with getting all the personal flowers to separate locations right on time! They made my vision come to life and it was perfect!

beginning, I felt that Parsonage really understood what look we were going for and showed a lot of enthusiasm, which I really appreciated. They created a Pinterest board, which is so much more helpful than saying “this flower for this, that flower for that.” Their quote came in higher than my budget, and after I explained what I was comfortable spending, they adjusted the floral proposal to accommodate. On the day of the wedding, our flowers were absolutely breathtaking and we got so many compliments. Parsonage is wonderful to work with, and I couldn’t have been happier!

eative, and really listened to our ideas and vision. I came in with a specific budget that I was trying to meet, and I appreciated their ability to stay within it while delivering gorgeous florals and event rentals that far exceeded my expectations. We initially worked with Kim to form a plan, but when she left a few months later for a new opportunity, our event was seamlessly transitioned to Liz, the owner. She listened carefully to my ideas about my bouquet, and was able to take my input and create something even better than I imagined. Our table decor was a combination of rentals from Parsonage, items provided by our venue, and candles borrowed from a friend, and Parsonage helped us tie everything into a cohesive design and did an amazing job on the setup. We used their succulents in our centerpieces, and at the end of the night we discovered that 4 of the succulents had mysteriously vanished, but Parsonage graciously didn't charge us for those. We also rented a chalkboard sign from them, and they created a lovely customized design for us based on an example I sent them from Pinterest. Parsonage, thank you for your part in making our big day extra beautiful!

I had so much faith in them that I gave them my money told them what I didn't want and what I liked and let them do what ever they thought was best. Our wedding was at The Crofoot in Downtown Pontiac and she did amazing filling the space to not only my personality but the Crofoot's personality. My bouquet was breath taking (Thanks to my mom for helping with it). The girls bouquets were amazing!!! not to mention my halos and all the groom/groomsmen boutonniere's. When I walked down the aisle everything was simple and quaint (Just what I wanted). And then when we did the room flip and we did our first look......WOW. It was freaking amazing. I couldn't have picked out anything better! The did such a good job making my likes turn into reality. I feel by giving them more room to do what their good at and not being so picky everything turned out better than I could have imagined. I'm so glad to have known these ladies. Thank you for everything you and your crew did to make my special day amazing!!!!! You guys are the best!!!

res is how amazing the staff was to work with! Liz went above and beyond to make my flowers and other decor absolutely perfect for our day. A month out I realized I wanted to change quite a few things and after a few phone calls with Liz I felt confident she would make things perfect. When the day finally came I was blown away at how everything looked! The flowers, the chuppah, the candles, everything was better than I ever could have imagined!

We had complete trust in her to fill in the blanks..... she didn't let us down! It was everything we wanted and more! It was a pleasure working with Liz and her team at Parsonage Events!

tched! Not to mention, she is an absolute joy to work with and took the time to get to know me personally - which was reflected in the flowers. She worked with me to make sure we stayed within my budget and found creative ways to reuse flowers between the ceremony and reception. I highly recommend Parsonage!

had some really unique ideas to add. She was flexible with changes and add ons as the wedding approched and it all turned out perfectly. It was beyond my expectations. The bouquets were absolutely beautiful and the centerpieces were as well. I received many compliments on all the arrangements from my guests.

our own and then seeing it come to life. They all have such creative minds and are so mindful of working within your budget as well! They're some of the most genuine group of people to work with for your wedding. I had 110% faith and trust in them throughout the entire process and especially the day of my wedding. I love how they enhanced my style and exceeded all of my expectations. The details and décor was a huge priority to me and I wanted it to be perfect. One of my favorite parts was doing a mock-up of the centerpieces which truly helped since I'm such a visual learner. I wish I could keep planning and repeat this experience with them over and over again! Liz, you are an amazing, inspiring, and strong business woman! You rock!!

edding and I was pretty nervous about trusting someone to make my vision come to life. I had one in-person meeting with Kim and immediately we clicked. She understood exactly what I wanted and gave perfect suggestions on things that would complement my bouquets and centerpieces. They were more gorgeous than I ever could have imagined and I am still floored by what a great job Parsonage Events did. Everyone at my reception was asking who did my bouquets and centerpieces because they were so elegant and different from anything they had seen at other weddings. Kim & Parsonage Events, THANK YOU. You can bet that I will be ordering any future arrangements through your team.

some photos, and she asked me lots of thoughtful questions about what I liked and didn't like. She put together a Pinterest board with her ideas for me (and a detailed list of costs, which was very helpful), and I was in love! Liz and her staff were so kind and friendly, and really made me feel comfortable that they knew what they were doing. I was so happy when I saw our bouquets and our reception arrangements on the day of, I was so happy. Everything turned out beautiful!

understood my vision but helped me bring together all my pieces and ideas to create a night I will never forget.It sounds cheesy but, during my wedding I had time in between the serving of the salad and main entree at dinner, to just sit and admire the work they had done with my head table, all of the other center pieces, and the decor, I couldn't stop smiling! I would HIGHLY recommend this vendor for any bride!

y wedding on 5/21/2016 and even my shower. She was my sanity. The flowers were so fresh and incredibly beautiful and truly what I imagined. The bouquets and boutonnieres were flawless. We had endless compliments and I actually cried when I saw the flowers. Sara also helped me choose my candles, linens, centerpieces, table numbers, and more. Each detail was stunning. We also had all of our "paper products" printed and created by Cristina who was just as wonderful. I've never been so happy over invitations! Granted putting them together was the biggest pain ever but so rewarding and again, just endless, endless compliments. Sharon also helped throughout the year with all of the invoices, payments, and general contact which was a breeze. I will never be able to say enough wonderful things about Parsonage, their team, products, etc. They made my dream wedding a reality in the smoothest of ways and I am so grateful a friend from high school recommended them. I know my day would not have been the same without them.

e and was always there for my most random questions. Honestly, whenever we would meet to chat, it was like sitting with a good friend discussing fun decorating ideas. I also used Parsonage for my table numbers, escort board, place cards, and directional signs. Sharon and Cristina helped in creating a design specific to our wedding. They both were very flexible, even when I had some last minute guests decide they wanted to attend. The designs that were created were wonderful and whimsical, perfect for our winter wedding. I cannot say enough about their services...just awesome! :).

t was so nice that I didn't have to worry about a thing on the day of the wedding - the venue was set up and taken down and my flowers were delivered to the church. My bouquet was gorgeous! I cannot encourage brides enough to chose the parsonage!

er we discussed my Alice in Wonderland wedding theme and I showed her a few pictures of what I had in mind. I didn't have anything super specific and I don't know much about flowers. Sara was super understanding and made sure to suggest and explain her input. Let me tell you, she knows her flowers! She created a Pinterest board for us with our vision in mind and how she thought it could be best executed. The board was SPOT on with what we wanted. When it came to price, she asked us what our budget was and made a lot of suggestions as to how we could cut costs and get the best bang for our buck. I really appreciate that she didn't pressure us into spending more money, but instead worked with exactly what we wanted to spend. She also sent us an itemized list of how much each item would cost, from individual flowers to table props. The end result was spectacular. She used a few things that we had provided in addition to the flowers and decor that Parsonage provided. There was an element of surprise for everyone who attended, including my husband and I. Each table was uniquely designed, as well as the head table. The flowers were by far the prettiest flowers I have ever seen at a wedding. Sara did our set up and our clean up too, which was awesome. We didn't have to worry about anything. I literally only have good things to say about Parsonage and Sara. From the first time we met, up until the end of our wedding, Sara was nothing but genuine, creative, organized, and professional.

m start to finish. They did an amazing job coordinating with our various vendors, and took care of details beyond flowers, including signage, linens, lighting, furniture rental, etc., which made things easier for us considering we were from out of town. And the result-- everything was beyond gorgeous and exceeded our expectations in every way. Choose Parsonage and you will not be sorry!

e arrangements prior but Sara was able to calm my nerves and assure me it would be perfect and she was right! Everything was perfect and would recommend the Parsonage for any event!

ing for. She worked with me on the budget and I couldn't have been happier with the outcome. She has an excellent artistic eye and I would completely use her and trust her judgment for any event in the future!

and even better than I expected. She also put together my table decorations which were perfect, so classy! Overall, I am so incredibly happy with the wok Pasonage Events did for my wedding. The flowers, chairs, table decorations, and linens made my wedding so gorgeous! I love looking back at all the pictures of how beautiful it all turned out, can even put into words. Liz is such a kind friendly person with a great personality. You can tell she loves what she does and works hard to give you the perfect wedding!

ul for visualizing our wedding, and was floored on our wedding day to see how beautifully it all came together. As an event planner, I continue to use them for events for U of M and am always thrilled with what they put together and the quality of service. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

ught me to tears, and multiple newly engaged wedding guests that wanted to know who did the flowers so they could book them for their upcoming wedding!

he was so in tune with what I wanted!! She took my pinterest/ideas/thoughts and turned it all into a more beautiful reality than I even had in my head. The flowers and decor are generally the biggest part of the wedding that people see. I got MY DREAM for the most reasonable price and it was PERFECT. I can't explain enough how beautiful and perfect everything turned out. Or how sweet and fun liz was to work with! Don't go with anyone else! This place is THE best.

nestly cried when I saw my bouquet, It was breathtaking! When I arrived to the venue I cried again because I could not believe how unique and beautiful everything looked. I could not be happier and I would recommend them to anyone planning an event.

th our linens and chair covers. During the planning process, we worked closely with Liz and she was so wonderful and helpful. She has an extremely creative eye, and knew exactly what I was looking for when I described our colors and theme. Her recommendations and the arrangements she proposed could not have been more perfect for our big day. Seeing our flowers and linens on the day-of, we could not have been happier with the result. The cafe au lait dahlias were stunningly gorgeous and we received so many compliments from our bridal party and guests. The linens were a perfect fit, and the table arrangements with floating votive candles really just completed the look and ambiance we were looking for. Through and through, Parsonage Events was just the very best. Their staff is professional, friendly, down to earth, knowledgeable and very talented. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Parsonage! -Christie Nichols (now Heike)

ulous) to vendor recommendations (loved them all) to after-hours meetings (flexibility is key for the busy bride) to last-minute saves (creating a flower girl basket from a spare vase!)...we wouldn't change a thing and were THRILLED with how our big day turned out! As a bride who easily could have gone the way of stressed to the extreme, I was so grateful to have Sara and Parsonage Events in my corner - you filled me with confidence, were positive and professional communicators and planners, and truly recharged my wedding excitement more than once when I was starting to feel overwhelmed. A giant THANK YOU, we are forever grateful for the work you did to make our wedding special and so very "us."

ng me to pick and arrange vintage furniture, to stuffing and folding napkins with my place cards, to helping me pick out every NON-FLORAL detail like linen colors. She has an impeccable eye and was able to immediately understand the aesthetic I was going for and make it a reality. Above all, Liz cares. She understands the importance of your day and treats your wedding as if it was her own. In addition, Liz worked with me extensively to get the floral budget down to where I felt comfortable - giving me honest feedback on ways to cut back and incredible cost-saving (like vintage candelabras!!!) ideas. BUT..... I haven't even mentioned how insanely, incredibly gorgeous the flowers were. My entire wedding was beaming at the elegance and beauty of Liz's work. When I pulled into the venue on my wedding day, I was in complete awe - Liz had surpassed my wildest dreams and the wedding was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Do yourself a favor and work with Liz. She is an incredible florist, and an amazing human being.

far the most talented floral/decor team in all of Michigan, and if you ask me - in all of this country. I came to them with ideas swirling in my head, and every single one of them came to life on my wedding day on August 9th. Liz became a friend, and some of the best memories of my wedding planning come from visiting her modern and somehow perfectly vintage shop. She was passionate about my wedding - and came up with new ideas that ended up becoming the favorite parts of my wedding decor. They set everything up so I could relax on my big day, and they took it all down. Bride to bride, you will get your dream wedding if you go with this company. They will make you feel like a princess, and you will look at them as friends. I owe them the biggest hug for what they created, and I intend on visiting their shop to do just that. So, THANK YOU Liz and the beautiful women and hardworking men at Parsonage, for giving me the most magical day of my life.

t Parsonage that help me bring my dream and vision to life! When I saw our reception and how beautiful it was, it literally brought me to tears! (not exaggerating!!!) I loved only having to think about one thing that day - my husband! Thank you for everything!

bsolutely consider Parsonage for all my events in the future and recommend them to anyone who will listen! Overall, I couldn't have chosen a better florist. Service was amazing and customer oriented - you left there wanting to hug them. While they were a bit more expensive than I would have liked, Sara worked with me to get to a price point that was reasonable for what I was asking. The centerpiece flowers lasted all weekend! The corsages were a little loose but still beautiful - plus, flowers need gentle care so it is no surprise that after a night of dancing the grandmothers didn't have too much left! Thank you for everything Parsonage!

and right then I knew I wanted to go with them as well. Their style is both elegant and whimsical. And although their prices aren't cheap -- the money is well worth it not only because of their gorgeous work, but also for their quality of service. I had the pleasure of working with Sara Kline, who from start to finish was a total professional and very knowledgeable. She was friendly, easy to work with, and passionate. She was also a great listener, making sure she understood exactly what I wanted, and was always available to go over details with me. A bonus was that she was willing (and knowledgeable enough about various types of flowers) to successfully work within my budget. I knew Parsonage would do a great job, but on the day of my wedding I was simply blown away. The arrangements had far exceeded my expectations. The venue looked simply stunning. There are so many things that can go wrong on the day of your wedding, and as a bride I'd prepared myself to be OK with that. In this case it was the exact opposite -- I got above and beyond what I expected, and I couldn't have been happier with Parsonage's work. I'm so glad I chose them.

ouquet was not in the correct color scheme. Was told the colors were technically the correct color since flowers vary. Why did we spend so much time with them going over what we wanted and our wedding colors for them to give us something the wrong color? Not very understanding and attempted to blame us and not the consultant. Very disappointed.

ed. They will set up and clean up (for an additional fee) and that is totally worth it! You can bring your own glassware and/or rent from them (I did both).

tly what I wanted and I felt like she was on my wavelength the whole time. She was wonderful to work with, I was even able to text her pictures of things I saw leading up to the wedding that I liked to keep both of us on the same page. She was able to meet with me, my husband, and mom after hours multiple times since we were driving in from Grand Rapids to plan the wedding. She even worked with my aunt the morning of the wedding to get everything set up to (my aunt's) very specific specifications. The flowers and centerpieces looked beautiful. GREAT JOB SARA and the rest of the staff at Parsonage!
