My husband and I got married a week ago on August 26th and I just have to say, Janelle and her whole team created a fantasy world for our wedding day! From the arch to the vines in the chandeliers to our centerpieces and bouquets, A Design Reso...
urce helped make everything on our wedding day so magical. Im really glad Im working with a preservationist for my bouquet because it really was a work of art! I absolutely loved visiting Janelle in her studio space and seeing all her creativity and enthusiasm for her work. Thank you for making our day so special and breathtaking!!!
Although we had some difficulty with communication and timely email responses, I wouldn’t dream giving Janelle anything less than five stars for the flowers at our wedding!! They went above and beyond my expectations, were PERFECT in every way...
-colors, shape, size, mix of flowers, and honestly the flowers ended up being one of the most unexpected highlights of the wedding and I got SO many compliments on them. Janelle knows her stuff and I was over the moon with how she made my vision come to life!! Thank you Janelle!!!!
My daughter was married on 8/15/20 which was a reschedule due to Covid from March. The owner wanted to re charge my daughter for the full amount, even though she never did set up or take down in March. Finally after emails back and forth she a...
greed to only charge 500$ for the flowers which we understood. We were all shocked. The flowers were ok, at the most and there where no flowers on the trellis that we’re married under. Very sub- standard for almost 4K. I am considering legal action.
Response from the Vendor on 09/04/2020
We are heartbroken you were not happy with the services we provided that day. We are not in business to have unhappy clients. We set a high standard for ourselves - a mission to create beautiful weddings and memorable experiences. We are tru...
ly sorry this was not the case for you.
We were taken back by your review as your daughter told me her flowers were beautiful when I checked in on her that day. I would be happy to discuss this issue with you over the telephone or email if you would like.
Your daughter’s wedding was originally scheduled in the early stages of COVID-19. We were not made aware of the cancellation, until just 2 ½ days prior to the wedding day. At that point, unfortunately 75% of our work, production labor and purchases have already been completed, which we were unable to recover those costs.
When we learned of your daughter’s new wedding date, we began making adjustments with your daughter to the original proposal. The decision was made to remove a hand-crafted wooden arbor dressed with florals from the final proposal. Had we known this was a priority to her, we would have found an alternative solution. It was our understanding, the couple decided to exchange their vows in a grassy lawn with large oak trees as their backdrop.
It wasn’t until we were on site setting up, the wedding coordinator informed us the couple was getting married under a trellis (provided by another vendor). At that point, I did not have flowers or equipment on hand to dress the trellis. Had we been aware in advance, I could have brought something to help dress the trellis.
In the end, A Design Resource billed for the wholesale cost of the flowers only. We did not charge additional costs for rental items, labor, as well as day of services for setting up and tearing down, which was paid for in March. This was discussed with your daughter, the week prior to the wedding. The two of us, I thought, had come to a reasonable compromise, due to the difficult challenges we all are navigating through as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Again, my deepest apologies. Please reach me personally via email or telephone, and I would be happy to discuss this issue with you and see how we may make this situation better for you.
I attended my niece's wedding on 8/15. The venue was beautiful. The bouquets were nice but there was no greenery, garland, or flowers on the trellis. The cost was over $3000. I know it is hard to plan from another state, but I would not re...

Look no further if you want amazing floral design and decor for your wedding! The florals at our wedding truly made the day amazing and added an extra level of elegance. We received so many compliments and our guests were truly blown away. Jane...
lle truly puts so much thought and energy into each and every aspect of the decor and it shows!
We absolutely loved working with Janelle at A Design Resource. We enjoyed talking with her about our vision for our wedding and picking out flower selections and table decor together. She stayed in communication with us leading up to our weddin...
g and answered our questions. Finally, on our wedding day, our flowers and tables were even more beautiful than we had imagined. We give A Design Resource our highest recommendation!
I knew immediately that I wanted to work with Janelle at A Design Resource. She was so thorough and took time to understand our vision and how she would create that for us. She is very hands-on and creative, and she was an absolute joy to work ...
with. She exceeded our expectations and was very conscious of our budget. When we talked about things conceptually, she knew exactly how to make it happen, instead of saying no or I can’t do that. Our Breckenridge wedding was absolutely perfect with unique, rustic, and elegant blooms, centerpieces, and a breathtaking altar that framed the mountains. In fact, our altar was so beautiful that our guests lined up to take photos underneath it after the ceremony. I highly recommend A Design Resource and would hire them again in a heartbeat!
Janelle and her team at ADR are absolutely phenomenal. I can’t say enough wonderful things about them- from their innovative design to attention to detail. I had worked with Janelle and her team for other professional events previously, so I kn...
ew I could trust her when it came to my wedding. Janelle spent two hours on the phone with me to make sure we had exactly what we wanted. Then she took our vision and made it come to life- more excellently than we ever expected. Our guests couldn’t stop taking photos of the décor, and my bouquet was a show stopper. It was a massive undertaking- 9 bridesmaids, a ceremony location, and a massive tent for the reception, and a different hall for dancing. They even brought some of the table arrangements to the hotel where we were hosting brunch the next morning so we could carry the celebration through. They made sure everything was taken care of, and knew I wouldn’t have to worry about anything day of. Everything was exceptionally beautiful.
I will be using A Design Resource for every celebration we have come up in our lives. They are simply the best!
A Design Resources did an amazing job with flowers on my wedding day. They make the process easy, and relaxing for the bride. They came and set up all my flowers and center pieces, as well as, took them down after the wedding. My flowers turne...

Thank you Nelly for allowing us to be part of your special day. you were a dream bride and we loved your vision !
WOW!! Best choice was selecting A Design Resource as our florist AND day of wedding coordination. Janelle & Jared were so easy to work with, they took our vision and completely blew us away with what they put together. I could not have ima...
gined a more elegant and romantic wedding. Jared was also our wedding coordinator and he was nothing short of spectacular. Extremely organized and we did not have to lift a finger the entire time because he took care of EVERYTHING!! His assistant, Jessica was awesome as well! Simply the best in Colorado.
Janelle and her staff were amazing! She listened to what I wanted and made it happen - on budget. She spent a good amount of time with me to make sure she understood my vision for the wedding. Would recommend to anyone!
We worked with Janelle at A Design Resource for our wedding flowers and decor. Everything turned about absolutely beautiful! Janelle was professional and had excellent advice. She put together a "vision board" so I could see how it all tied tog...
ether, and on the day of the wedding I couldn't believe my eyes - it was stunning! Every element was perfect. This was a really important piece for me, and Janelle and A Design Resource made it come to life while working with my budget.
Thank you Crystal for your outstanding work on the John/Pollard wedding! The flowers were so perfect, just exactly what the bride wanted. You truly enchanted the venue with beautiful arrangements and decorations. The flowers are still beautiful...
sitting in a vase on my kitchen table:) It was a pleasure meeting you!
Beautiful work this weekend, Crystal! Your work consistently impresses me with its originality. You excel at incorporating the personalities of the bride and groom into your designs. You really are the best, and a credit to A Design Resour...

First and most importantly, the flowers were beautiful and exactly what we wanted! We got exactly what we wanted, and Janelle was very much in tune (and open) to what we asked for. We felt like the communication was a little tricky. We did succ...
ulents in hoping to keep some, but when we reached out to see if we could get the flowers we did not get a response. We found out later, from someone at the venue, that the flowers were going to be 'repurposed'. I love that they are being used again, and not thrown away, but for the price we paid, it would have been nice to have a few. I was also, hoping to keep parts of my bouquet, but when we back the next morning, they were nowhere to be found and the venue said they had not disregarded anything. All and all, the flowers were great and Janelle was great. We were just bummed we had nothing to take from the wedding. With that said, we still HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Janelle and her staff made my wedding at the Manor House in Littleton absolutely gorgeous. She was very receptive to all feedback, and was very flexible and sweet to work with. She is the most amazing decor for your flowers, from mercury glass ...
vintage vases, candlestick holders, and even brought in a fireplace for us to get married in front of! My flowers were absolutely gorgeous-- I wanted all pale pink flowers and was very picky about the shade and types of flowers/greenery, and Janelle delivered! Everything was absolutely stunning, and all of my guests complimented my gorgeous blooms! Would use A Design Resource again in a heartbeat!
Crystal and her staff were amazing! All of her floral arrangements far exceeded my expectations and she stayed within my budget! Crystal went above and beyond and brought the entire vision of my rustic elegant wedding to life. She was so easy t...
o work with and covered every little detail….boutonnieres, corsages, bouquets, centerpieces, even flowers for our welcome sign and cake. A Design Resource has so much to choose from! I can’t say enough positive things! Definitely book them for your next wedding or party!!!
A Design Resource was absolutely amazing for our special day! They were really able to bring in the colors and flowers we both loved, all while looking like a cohesive unit.

re special!
Janelle(our florist) and Jessica(our wedding planner) were phenomenal. Janelle made our wedding vision came to life. She listened to our design ideas and elevated them to create an elegant and cohesive look. Her attention to detail and ability ...
to transform simple ideas into a personalized, unique element made the ambiance of our wedding a talking point for guests. Jessica was on top of it from the beginning. Our wedding needed changes to the timeline last minute and she accommodated our changes with ease and professionalism. She always remained calm(a must for wedding planners) but kept us informed throughout the night. Her diligence made our wedding smooth, stress-free and fun. We highly recommend hiring Janelle and Jessica as a the team for your wedding!
Janelle at A Design Resource blew me away. From the beginning to the end of the wedding planning process, Janelle made me and my vision her priority. She truly painstakingly helped us flex our budget to my (very particular) vision. I interviewe...
d four florists at the beginning of the wedding planning process, but what made me want to ask Janelle to be our florist was one thing she said during our first meeting. She told me that the day of the wedding she would be there personally to deliver the bouquets to each attendant, and to pin on the men's boutonnières. She offered that personal touch that no other local florist had. The flowers were EXACTLY what I dreamed of, pinned and envisioned. Janelle was amazing to work with and I would recommend her and A Design Resource to my closest friend. Thank you!
Absolutely amazing!! I was so blown away by our flowers that they brought me to tears. Janelle is so creative and talented. She took my vision and made it happen. It was even better than I expected.
Janelle and her team = awesome.
I did not have a vision walking into the meeting with her but when I walked out I was a changed woman! Janelle takes the time to show you all her pieces so she can get a better understanding of what you want on y...
our special day. The flowers she picks are unique and amazing!
Janelle executed our vision perfectly! The flowers turned out beautifully and I was thrilled with them. Our centerpieces, bouquets and ceremony decor were all absolutely perfect!
Janelle has an amazing eye for creating gorgeous bouquets, center pieces and everything wedding! I got more compliments on my flowers by other vendors and all my guests. People and the other vendors would say, "I have been to so many weddings a...
nd your flowers by far, are the most stunning." She was amazing to work with and always let me know what to expect. She promptly returned my phone calls and emails and was always there for me. I highly recommended A Design Rescourse for all your flower needs! Absolutely amazing!!!!
I went with this florist because they were referred to us by our venue. I had the worst time trying to reach them and felt like just another bride. I honestly felt like they didn't feel the need to make an effort because they already had my bus...
iness. I thought that they were overpriced and while the staff was very friendly, we ended up canceling shortly before the wedding. I ended up getting amazing flowers for half the price elsewhere and got to take the centerpieces home. So, learn from my mistake and meet with vendors before agreeing to them.
Janelle and her team were recommended by our reception site: The Manor House. We were very glad we went with Janelle. She met with me each of the times I asked for a meeting. She was quick to respond to emails. She wrote out an awesome first dr...
aft of our contract with detailed descriptions of everything. She totally understand our vision for the wedding and flowers.
Our ceremony was at noon in the summer but we wanted to do our first look at 9AM. Janelle was concerned that the flowers would start to look droopy by the ceremony and certainly by the reception. So she came up with the brilliant idea to send one of her employees to the site where we took pictures who not only delivered the flowers but took them from us after pictures, re-cut them, stored them in a cooler, drove the flowers to the church, and then gave them back to us! We were not charged anything outside of the normal delivery charge. They really went above and beyond.
We also needed vases for the head table so that during dinner our flowers could be displayed. Janelle delivered vases and let us keep them for no extra charge.
All the flowers were beautiful. I liked that the toss bouquet was on the smaller side; it was not only a great price but easy to throw!
I can't remember off the top of my head exactly how much we spent but I believe the cost I indicated is accurate. Janelle was very accommodating about our budget. A few months before the wedding we decided to do away with boutonnieres for the ushers to save a few bucks and that was totally okay with her.
I absolutely recommend A Design Resource.
Janelle and her staff recently did the flowers and décor for my wedding at The Sanctuary. Janelle was great to work with and was able to create the EXACT ambience I was looking for with a fairly limited floral budget. She was able to use a co...
mbination of flowers, water and candles to make the whole ceremony and reception area feel warm and inviting, just as I had envisioned. Our bouquets were fresh and fragrant, and I even had a hummingbird land on my bouquet (twice) during photos!! Thanks to A Design Resource, my wedding was as beautiful (or more) than I could have imagined.
Our flowers were so beautiful! I couldn't have asked for something better. We worked with Janelle and she was very easy to work with. I was planning my wedding remotely, and Janelle was very easy to communicate with over the phone and email.

A Design Resource did a great job of taking my rough vision (and lack of knowledge about flowers) and creating an amazing plan. We had a wildflower theme and they were so beautiful. They were very happy to work within my budget and had lots of helpful tips. Many guests also commented on our flowers and decor.
A Design Resource was great!

ful wedding. In addition, she helped us fit the flowers and look we wanted into our budget. She came up with unique and beautiful ways for us to cut down on cost but not on beauty. Our flowers and centerpieces better than I even imagined and I owe that all to Janelle's talent and professionalism. you are in good hands with this vendor.
The Design Resource did work with me being an out of state bride. I was able to talk via phone & email and tell the owner what I wanted. She typed up a whole list of what flowers and colors she would use in each bouquet, etc. which I loved ...
because I could visualize what the final product would look like.
However, the flowers that were at my wedding were not exactly the colors I'd requested which was a little disappointing. For example, I requested purple and white petals for the flower girl and recieved pink petals.
The flowers were beautiful though, and I decided not to stress since it was my wedding day! I would probably not recommend this company if you have a very specific idea in your head like I did. However, if you just want a florist to be creative and do what they want, go for it!
I didn't (and still do not) know much about flowers, so all I was able to do was tell them what colors I wanted used and other little specifics, which they followed to a tee. We had multiple comments on how beautiful the flowers were.
Janelle and her team are amazing, Our first meeting was what I wanted and then before she gave me this budget that I couldn't do, she asked me what my budget was. Everything was individually priced so that I could adjust each piece as a needed.
We used A Design Resource for our wedding flowers. We wanted flowers that had a more "wildflower" design because we were having a mountain wedding. The women at "A Design Resource" were able to help create the vision and the flowers came out be...
autifully. They are also open to working with your budget.
