We chose Annette Creations to do several services for our wedding in August. Annette Rioux is listed here on the The Knot as a florist, but she also does paper goods (invitations, ...escort cards, programs, etc.) and day-of coordinating. We booked her for all these services since her prices were affordable and her work samples were beautiful and high quality. Her floral work is amazing and so beautiful! She truly put a lot of effort into making designs that were unique to our style and color scheme. We chose coral and green as our wedding colors and she came up with really creative ways to express these colors in the flowers. We got so many compliments on all our different floral items (bouquets, ceremony altar arrangements, reception table centerpieces, and more).
She also made several paper items for us - save the dates, invitations, ceremony programs, escort cards, and menu cards. All of these were excellent! I especially liked the personalized monogram/logo she designed for us using our initials and wedding date. This was used throughout the paper items and it tied everything together with a visual theme.
Annette was also excellent as a day-of coordinator. She met with us about one month before the wedding to plan out a detailed timeline of the day and gather information about our wedding party/special people involved in the wedding and our various vendors. She wrote up the timeline on a shared Google Doc so we could make changes leading up to the wedding day and everyone involved (bride, groom, parents, Annette) could see the updates seamlessly. On the day of the wedding she did a great job of handling the set-up at the church and reception venue, communication with vendors, and various check-ins to make sure everything was running smoothly. It was nice to have a go-to person outside the family/wedding party to handle small details and keep everyone on schedule so we didn’t have to worry about it. Annette was very friendly and positive to work with throughout the whole process and we highly recommend her!
