The hotel recommended the company for the use of a donut wall. The wall was cute and a huge hit with our guests!
Kristy and her team at Create A Scene truly brought my vision for my wedding to life! The planning process was easy and smooth, the communication frequent, thorough, and clear, the attention to detail in the decor was impeccable, and the florals were stunning and everything I was looking for! Couldn't recommend more!
Kristy and everyone else at Create-A-Scene was amazing! My husband and I really wanted to have a his and hers theme of glitter and baseball. Which initially, I thought would be incredibly challenging considering those two concepts don't typically go together. It didn't faze Kristy at all. Not only was she incredibly creative, she made our vision come alive. I couldn't have asked for more beautiful flowers and decorations. We will definitely be recommending their services in the future!
Kristy and her team were amazing to work with. I sat down with Kristy and told her my vision for my florals and decor, and she and her team made it so much better than I could have ever dreamed. They have this thing down to a science. You will not be disappointed booking with Create a Scene!
Kristy and her team are incredible!! Could not recommend them more to anyone to help with your big day.
We had a wonderful experience from planning sessions over email and in-person to execution of flowers, chairs, decor, dance floor and all on our wedding day.
Kristy is very responsive, organized and helpful. She gave great recommendations as my style and vision changed throughout the planning process. I also really appreciate how Kristy was so easy to work with as I live out of town.
Thank you Kristy and team for everything!!
Kristy at Create-A-Scene was wonderful. She helped my dream wedding become a reality. She was organized and gave great recommendations. They made my wedding stress-free by providing all the set up and tear down of the florals and decor. Everything looked stunning, and I couldn't have asked for anything better! The flowers were more beautiful than I could have imagined.
Kristy was so amazing and I really couldn't have asked for more from a vendor. She was the jack of all trades and made my day truly beautiful. Everything from the decor, room flip, flowers and more it was all perfection. I wish I could get married over and over just to have their work shown off.
Create-a-Scene went above and beyond on our wedding day!! From the floral to the decor, to the set up and timely tear down, we were thrilled with the quality, professionalism, and true talent that Kristy and her team displayed in every detail! We couldn't be happier -- thank you Create-a-Scene!
We cannot say enough good about our experience with Kristy and her team. They truly made our day so special and we are forever grateful to them for that.
My husband and I could not recommend Create A Scene (CAS) enough! Kristy was organized, responsive, and thoughtful. She was supportive of our vision but also offered helpful suggestions when we were unsure or had questions. Our wedding was 2 days involving a cultural Pakistani ceremony followed by a Christian ceremony and a traditional reception. CAS made both days so incredibly beautiful! We received so many compliments and I never worried that our flowers and decor would turn out absolutely stunning. Thank you CAS!
Can I just say Amazing is an understatement.. When this company says it is full service that is exactly what you get! Kristy worked hand and hand with our planner and gave us our dream wedding. Kristy was with us every step of the way and was able to create the most “dreamy” aesthetic for our big day. From the tables and chairs to the decor on and around the tables for our reception, she is an absolute pro! She was such a joy to work with, so patient and kind and really listened to what we were wanting when it came to our look for our day. Sue and her team in the floral department did an absolute jaw dropping job on all things flowers. I requested to see my bouquet before the wedding day since I was a little worried about the size and when I tell you I cried, it was just everything I could have ever wanted. The communication and professionalism of this company is unmatched. The dispatch team kept me informed as to when they were set to arrive to our venue to being the tent set up and they brought a whole team of guys to ensure the process was perfect! All of the guys were professional and polite even in 90+ degree weather. I provided the guys with drinks & lunch and they were all more than appreciative and made sure to say thank you over and over. Bret, the dispatch manager was extremely professional and walked us step by step through their process and it was much appreciated. From set up to tear down they was awesome communication and just great service! Highly, highly recommend!!
Create A Scene is the best company to partner with when planning any event, especially your wedding!! Kristy listened to our ideas and thoughts and gave advice where it was needed to make our vision a reality. She was the reason for how beautiful our reception layout and floral design turned out! Communication, response time and professionalism were met with every form of interaction we had. 10/10 stars!!
If you need STUNNING wedding decor, look no further than Create A Scene!!!! The team at Create A Scene helped to make my vision come alive - and it came alive in a way that was even better than I could have ever imagined. Their communication was fabulous, and their team was so helpful, kind, and attentive. Definitely hire Create A Scene for your wedding - don’t even give it a second thought!!!
The best of the best!!! Create a Scene did an absolutely AMAZING job on our bouquets and wedding decor. Kristy listened to every little detail and vision we had and she 100% exceeded our expectations. Our bouquets were possibly the most beautiful I have ever seen! I was obsessed and our guests were complementing them all day! They completed the room flip with such ease and they seriously created the most beautiful space for our big day. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you so much Kristy and team!
They did such a STUNNING job with our wedding decor and flowers! We were able to plan out exactly what each table would look like in their warehouse in Morton which made it very helpful for those of us who need visuals!! The flowers were also picture prefect and exactly what I wanted. They are also very willing to work within your budget to make sure you have everything you want and help you to come up with different ideas to help you stay within that monetary amount!
Create a Scene is the best! We hired them to do our decorations and flowers for our wedding. When I say they brought my dream to life, I’m not kidding. The decorations were elegant and the flowers were exactly what I wanted. I cannot recommend them enough!
My husband and I got married September 2021 and we used Create A Scene for our table/venue decorations and personal bouquets. We are very happy that we chose Create A Scene! I had a loose idea of what I wanted for the center pieces and my personal flowers. I was so happy to see how Kristy was able to interpret what I wanted and bring it to fruition. Kristy was very communicative throughout the process and handled the setup and tear down with our venue seamlessly. I was tremendously happy with how the bridal party bouquets turned out, they were exactly the color scheme, size and style that I was looking for. We were planning the wedding from out-of-town, so it was incredibly helpful to have a single vendor handle all of the reception decor + the personal bouquets. My husband and I would 100% recommend Create A Scene and would choose them again in a heartbeat.
The create a scene team did an amazing job setting up our decorations for our big day. The service that they provide makes your day stress-free. I cannot thank Kristy enough for working with me and bringing my vision to life. It was so convenient to have the ability to have our decorations and florals all come from one place!
Create A Scene did a fabulous job for our wedding! They did our florals and all of our rentals, from tables/chairs to the arbor to the centerpieces and place settings. Our day ran so smoothly thanks in large part to their hard work. Kristy was great to work with. We gave her a few basic ideas of our visions for both the tables and flowers. With minimal further input from us, she executed it perfectly! We are so thrilled with how it all turned out.
Kristy and Kim were amazing to work with! They thought of things we hadn’t and included so many special touches. I would highly recommend this company for your wedding decorating needs!
Create A Scene did decor and my flowers for my wedding. I had very specific flowers and greenery I wanted and let me just say they exceeded all my expectations. My flowers were absolutely perfect. They also draped the ceiling of my venue and it was beautiful!
To know Kristy and Sue is to love them. They, and the entire team at CAS, are some of the most amazing ladies (and gentlemen!) around. Having been a previous employee I can only say how thankful I am for their amazing contribution when it [finally] came to our wedding day. Not only did they offer to do something outside of their normal box, they made the entire process fun and exciting as planning a semi-secret elopement in Iceland can be! All I can say is reach out and ask if there is something you want. Create a Scene has a way with making your dream ideas come true in the sweetest way.
Create a Scene was such a pleasure to work with. Their customer service is unmatched as is the quality of their inventory! We rented tons of furniture for our wedding and we got endless compliments on the quality and aesthetics of all of it. They are great! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience with them.
I can't even begin to describe how amazing this tribe is. My florals were Pinterest worthy, and they executed my vision flawlessly. They make planning so easy, and Kristy is a great communicator. The investment in the decor and floral is 100% worth it. If you're looking for floral, decor, and more, stop looking and visit and book Create A Scene.
Create a Scene is THE place for wedding decor and florals. I can't even fathom how they own enough product to bring to life the scenes they do, let alone bring such unique and gorgeous visions to life. They have the experience and professionalism every bride wants and needs to feel comfortable and cared for on their big day. They are also epically creative and willing to give anything a shot for you. I hope whoever takes the time to read this review instantly books with them!
Kristy was so great to work with from Create A Scene. She was so helpful with every last detail and was great with communicating. We also used them as our florist and the flowers were INCREDIBLE. I absolutely loved every last floral arrangement they did from the boutonnière and corsages to the isle decorations and centerpieces. It was all amazing and I cannot say enough good things about my experience with this company. Very prompt, professional, and detail oriented.
Kristy and her team did an absolutely amazing job and exceeded all expectations! At the beginning of the process, I had a hard time articulating exactly what I wanted but Kristy listened, asked questions and brought the most beautiful vision to life. We received endless compliments on how beautiful our ceremony and reception looked. For coordinating, Kristy and Lisa were extremely knowledgeable and patient (our wedding party wasn’t the best at listening) and made sure everything from the rehearsal dinner to reception went off without a hitch. We were supposed to have an outdoor wedding and although the rain changed our plan, you would have never known because the ceremony decorations made the inside area of our venue look just as stunning. If something went wrong on the day of, I have no idea because everything looked perfect and seemed to go incredibly smooth. I cannot say enough positive things and am forever grateful we worked with Create a Scene. Highly, highly recommend!
Kristy was fabulous to work with! Create a Scene provided flower bouquets and centerpieces for our wedding. The bouquets were so full and beautiful. They delivered everything the morning of the wedding and arranged all of our centerpieces and head table decorations. Everyone was impressed. Would definitely recommend!
Create A Scene does beautiful floral work. I had an idea of what I wanted for the flowers for our wedding. Kristy sat down with us and helped turn my vision into a reality. She suggested flowers to add, flowers not to use. She listened to what I wanted and was able to suggest things to improve my vision. Kristy was great to work with. She was prompt on responding to emails with questions or additions/changes to the order.
I loved the flowers we received for our wedding day. From my bouquet, to the bridesmaids' bouquets, to the mom's corsages, my husband's boutonniere, the groomsmen and dad's boutonnieres, everything was perfect! And they delivered the flowers right to our hotel room where we were getting ready!
Create A Scene also did our arbor flowers, cake flowers, sweetheart table flowers, and some greenery on the tables in the entry. They were able to set those up at the venue so we didn't have to worry about anything the day of. Everything was so beautiful and fresh! The pictures we have of everything just don't do the work justice.
Create A Scene did the flowers and reception decor for all of my kids weddings. I continue to use them for business functions. Kristy and Sue have the best team. They create to expectations and any budget! Best around!

I have been a huge fan of Create-A-Scene for years and had the privelage working with Kristy & Sue, and their team, when I managed a Banquet Facility. I dreamed that one day they would design my Wedding. My expectations were exceeded to the max! The flowers were absolutely stunning and the tie wrapped around my bouquet to honor my Dad, who died a year before the Wedding, was such a special touch. The decorations were everything we hoped. We got married on November 17, 2018 and what we had planned to be a beautiful fall day turned out to be a cold, windy, snowy day. Well, being as stubborn as we are, we got married outside in the snow. The CAS team didn't hesitate to stick to our plan and hung drapery on the tree and set up chairs in the wet grass. We are so appreciative of their dedication to making our dream come true. We HIGHLY recommend Create-A-Scene.
We used CAS and worked with Kristy for some of our decor pieces and flowers (bouquets, for church and reception). Kristy was amazing. The bouquets were big and beautiful - she listened to how I wanted the florals to look. She also worked with some of the pieces we had purchased and worked in rental pieces to save on the funds. Their shop has every color you can imagine for your big day. Thank you Kristy!!!
My wedding day was absolutely perfect! Kristy worked with us for a very long time, be kind and understand and patient with all of our changes and questions. They set up everything for us and worked around our schedule to do so; they were gentle, supportive, eager and excited to help. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help with my wedding! Thank you so much everyone-it was everything I wanted and more!
I can’t say enough good things about create a scene! They more than exceeded my expectations for our winter wedding from setting up and decorating our ceremony and reception to all of our gorgeous flowers! Very professional and had everything we needed! Would highly recommend them!
My flowers were beautiful! They came and delivered them when asked and set up what needed be set up in a timely manner before the ceremony. Would highly recommend!
Kristy and everyone at Create A Scene did a fabulous job with every aspect of the decor for our wedding- from chairs, to flowers, to linens, to signage, and beyond!!! I had high expectations and they exceeded them!!! I was especially impressed with the florals! Kristy was very responsive during the planning process. I felt very comfortable with Create a Scene throughout the whole process and enjoyed giving them some artistic liberty as well- which resulted in incredibly stunning ceremony and reception spaces!!! I highly recommend!!!! I look forward to using their services for other events in the future, too! They are truly everything in one spot!
Create a Scene was so easy to work with because they did flowers AND decor - they decorated the staircase of my reception hall with garland beautifully, provided me with linens and decor I to rent, and created the most amazing floral bouquets for my bridesmaids and I!
I cannot say enough great things about Kristy and the CAS team! They made all of my ideas a reality. When I arrived at my venue day of it brought me to tears. The decor was even more beautiful than I ever imagined. We used them for all of our flowers, the ceremony back drop, seating, table clothes, and head table decor. They were amazing and so easy to work with. If you had something to update or change all you had to do was email them and they would update the invoice immediately and have that item reserved. I will definitely be recommending them to any and all couples who get married. All of their rentals are absolutely beautiful.
I couldn’t have been more pleased with this company and everything that they did for our wedding this past weekend!! All the details, from the flowers to the centerpieces to the ceremony decor were beyond PERFECT!!!! I couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful wedding!! Thank you Kristy and team!! We loved it all and were so happy to have used your company to make our day magical!!!❤️
Our flowers, event draping, and flower pillars were flawless. We got so many compliments on how gorgeous they were!! Thank you so much Create A Scene. You were great to work with!!
Christy and her crew are amazing!! It is like a 1 stop shop. Everything is done with incredible detail. The customer service is top notch. Highly highly recommend them!!

Kristy and her staff will go above and beyond to ensure your wedding day (or any event for that matter) is exactly what you were dreaming of! They are so patient and pay very close attention to detail, absolutely nothing will fall through the cracks with this team. I definitely will be recommending Create a Scene to all new brides I meet. Thanks for a beautiful day!!
The best in the business. They are truly great and genuinely want to help you create your dream wedding! Kristy is so kind, gave great advice, and was so so helpful the whole process! So appreciative of their whole staff. Choose them my friends!
Create A Scene is hands-down the best in the business. We hired them for our Davenport wedding, and everything was even more beautiful than we could have imagined. Our decor had to go through security and our flowers were separately delivered to our hotel for photos, and they made it happen without a hitch. Not once did I, as the bride, stress or worry because I had 100% confidence and trust in their customer-service-oriented business. What a blessing on your wedding day! We truly felt like Kristy was an long lost friend of ours, and HIGHLY recommend Create A Scene for your wedding day!
Kristy, Sue and their team at Create A Scene are a valuable partner in making our annual"Toast & Taste" event a huge success. By decorating each of our guest tables with a different tablescape with floral and candles, along with I Do Events linens, the ballroom is as unique as each one of our 2019 Brides. Their quality, professionalism and attention to detail continues to make a huge impact on events at Metamora Fields Golf Club.
Create A Scene made planning our wedding easy! Kristy was so helpful in making sure our reception looked great and stayed within our budget! The bridal party flowers were also absolutely stunning! Could not have had my dream wedding without them!
Create A Scene did an amazing job with decorating our wedding. We got so many compliments on how beautiful our draping and centerpieces looked. I could not have been happier with how it turned out, as well as the amazing service I got along the way! Thanks so much for making my December wedding turn out just the way I imagined :)

When planning my wedding, I knew I didn't have the talent, time, or interest to hand-make my centerpieces, etc. I was thrilled when I found Create A Scene, where I could rent centerpieces, chairs, linens, and have my flowers done! Working with Kristy was great. She helped me nail down my vision and understood what I wanted, even though I barely knew what I wanted! It was really nice to be able to set up a sample table-setting to visualize what we were choosing. Probably the part I was most pleasantly surprised by was my floral bouquet and the flowers for the rest of the wedding party. We talked through sort of what I wanted and found a couple sample pictures of bouquets. I wasn't too picky and wasn't too concerned that I hadn't worked directly with the florist. But when the flowers were actually delivered, they were so incredibly beautiful! She took my non-specific broad ideas for my bouquet and had something breath-taking designed by their full-service floral department! The final outcome of the room, tables, flowers, etc was just magical. And I loved that I didn't have to set-up or tear down anything! Definitely recommend!
I cannot say enough about Create a Scene. This entire past year of working with them, I could not have been happier. Kristy, the owner, is remarkable. She felt like an all-encompassing wedding planner, but was actually just our decorator and florist. She took care of basically everything we needed. She knew our venue so well, had amazing suggestions, and was quick to contact us back every week.
I first need to say how stunning the flowers were. Truly the most beautiful bouquet I have ever seen. I had shown her a picture and I really think she made the bouquet even more stunning. They were all delivered at perfect times.
The decorations in the ballrooms were magnificent. She knew exactly the look I wanted and exceeded my expectations. The venue even messed up with some up-lighting and she went out of her way to contact all the vendors she knew to try to correct it, all while I was driving around taking photos, not knowing of this.
I can honestly say I have never been to a more beautiful wedding, so glad it was mine! I would highly recommend Create a Scene to anyone. Truly incredible. I want to plan a party just to work with Kristy again, I will miss her!!!
Kristy and her team were absolutely fabulous! She went above and beyond to make our wedding extra special. We were married on our farm, outdoors. Everything was tastefully done and had more compliments than we could imagine. She was great about working with us and our budget as well! If you hire her, you won't be sorry!
Kristy was so great to work with. Everything turned out perfect! The peonies were so beautiful!
Kristy was WONDERFUL! By far my favorite vendor that I worked with during the planning of my wedding. She was responsive, helpful, and very easy to talk to. She had ideas, but wasn't pushy and understood that while she does this every day, I'd never planned a wedding before and often had a lot of questions. My bouquet was BEAUTIFUL!! I wish I could have it forever. The silk floral arrangements were also gorgeous and very realistic. In fact, everyone thought they were real!! The bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages were also lovely. Additionally, the decorations for the reception were also perfect! They really did a great job and I would use them again immediately!
Kristy was so nice and easy to work with! She was very understanding and worked with us to stay within a budget. My bouquet turned out BEAUTIFULLY and our decorations for the reception were fantastic!
Kristy and her team were a blast to work with! Everything from the centerpieces and tablecloths all the way down to the paper on the tables was perfect! Kristy and her team took my Pinterest wedding ideas and made them into a reality!!! The price was well worth it! They come and set it all up and then they come and tear it all down! Such a piece of mind knowing I didn't have to set anything up the day of my wedding!
We thought we wouldn’t be able to afford professionally-designed tablescapes, but we were delightfully surprised by what Create a Scene was able to put together within our budget! And we are so glad we invested the money – the end result was breathtaking! Their team was also great with accommodating a last-minute request for a backdrop when we had to move our outdoor ceremony indoors due to the weather. Thanks for everything!
Kristy and the whole staff at Create a Scene made our night so incredibly beautiful. I have never seen the Gateway Building look so beautiful. They turned our reception hall into a "church" so we could get married in it as well. Excellent customer service and made everything SO easy!
They did such a wonderful job in making sure the day was everything that I wanted. They worked with me when I changed my vision and helped me figure out what I really liked. They were so accommodating. They went in the day of rehearsal so I was able to see everything put together before everyone else did.
The flowers were also perfect and exactly what I wanted. I encountered no issues with them.
I would definitely use their service again.
We met with Kristi at Create a Scene and she helped my daughter create not one, but two gorgeous and unique types of centerpieces and bridal florals for her September wedding. Not only is renting your centerpieces truly more economical than buying your own items, it was such a relief to know that everything would be delivered, set up and picked up by them at the end of the event and it allowed me to enjoy more of my daughters special day!
So great to work with! We were able to iron out all the details well before the wedding so all we had left was final count. They even let me squeeze in an extra table on the final date. They took care of everything from linens to centerpieces and worked well with my venue so I didn't have to worry about a thing! We arrived for cocktail hour and it was just beautiful!
