Couture Dezigns

ing. We had no idea how much flowers cost, but did know what we wanted. Everyone was astronomical. And then we found Couture Dezigns! I couldn't help but think "this is too good to be true". They were so nice, professional and lower priced! But it was true! We are so happy we found them. Ann was incredibly easy to work with. I don't know all the types of flowers by heart, but I knew I wanted lots of garden roses and peonies! So I sent her pictures and she helped me put together my plan. She sent me a 12 page proposal that was beautiful! I knew it was the plan for me! On my wedding day my bouquet arrived and it was absolutely stunning and complimented my dress to the T. She nailed it! She knows what she's doing. She goes above and beyond for her clients. We live in the New Orleans area so we never met or even talked with her! Everything was done by email. We feel very blessed to have had her for our wedding day. I highly recommend her as do several of my wedding vendors who have worked with her in the past.

es the centerpieces for free with the flowers, which is really nice. I knew nothing about what type of flowers I wanted going in, I just had pictures saved from pinterest and she was able to recreate the look I was going for and then some. Her prices are so reasonable I at first worried if they would turn out looking as full and beautiful as I wanted them to look. Of course all my fears were laid to rest, her arrangements looked very expensive and were large beautiful and lush. Other florists were quoting me almost double the price she did, and I think hers looked better than any picture I saw of the competition. She did my centerpieces, ceremony flowers, bouquets, cake flowers, and more. I never felt she tried to up sell me or push my budget. She did talk me into doing ceremony flowers after I told her I didn't want any BUT I'M SO GLAD SHE DID! It added minimal cost and really added the perfect pop to the church. She is a great advisor for flower dummies like me (I couldn't tell a freesia from a dahlia truth be told!). I had many guests tell me my wedding was one of the most beautiful they had ever been to and I credit the florals and centerpieces a large part of that success. Another thing I just loved about Ann is she is super responsive!!! As a bride you won't learn to appreciate this until you have vendors you've paid in full or given large deposits and then they won't respond to your emails. With so many of my vendors it was like pulling teeth to get prompt responses which baffles me from a business standpoint, but Ann was always quick to respond and provide me quotes, pictures, and anything else I requested or needed in a timely manner. Trust me that goes a long way when you are trying to plan your wedding. Pay close attention to the contract, if you want them to pick up the centerpieces the night of the wedding you have to let her know and pay a small fee or else return all the centerpieces within two weeks. Ladies if you have a day-of planner PLEASE still keep open communication with all your vendors, I did not and it created issues for me. To summarize, Ann is very talented, professional, and creates gorgeous arrangements. I would recommend her and her husband to any bride.
