Emily was such a pleasure to work with. She was always responsive, professional, and worked incredibly hard to make my wedding everything I wanted it to be. She really went above and beyond, even taking it on herself to create signage and place cards when there was a last-minute hiccup with one of the vendors. I really can't say enough good things about working with her. She made the wedding planning process fun to go through and I always had confidence in her that she would handle any issues that arose. Thank you for all of your hard work Emily and for making my wedding not only beautiful but stress-free!
Emily is fantastic! Our wedding turned out to be absolutely beautiful and we couldn't have done it without Emily's help! Although we weren't the easiest to deal with, she never got frustrated with us and did her best to help us with every step of the way. We would recommend Emily to anyone planning a wedding!
Emily planned our wedding and absolutely nailed it. Hands down the most incredible event I've attended (all personal bias aside). She executed my wife's very discerning vision impeccably. We highly recommend her.
My husband and I both reside in Chicago. We chose Savannah as our destination wedding. Initially, both my husband and I began to plan the wedding and booked some of our major vendors. These vendors included the reception and ceremony venue, the photographer, and food vendor. We chose to have our wedding in November. However, sometime in March we both realize there is no way we can do this on our own. That is when I sent out a number of emails and Emily responded. So here is what you need to know;
Strengths
1. Vision oriented – EMD had my husband and I think beyond a color palette and look into the aspects that really mattered to us for our wedding
2. Professional – EMD showed professionalism to us, religious clergy, our vendors, and guests
3. The first time we talked over the phone we felt not only that we were interviewing her but she was interviewing us. This particular step was crucial in understanding whether we were a match.
4. EMD gets things done!
5. Extremely prompt and responsive in her emails.
6. Put your mind at ease - When vendors don’t quite work the way you envision she will make sure you know that she will do whatever it takes to make sure your wedding happens how you want it.
7. Patience - We had an extremely frustrating vendor to work with and she was relentless in her pursuit for clear communication, getting questions answered, and getting to the bottom of things.
8. Bargains – Talks to vendors extensively to get you the best deals for your budget
9. Planning Pod – The system EMD uses to plan events helped extensively to keep all notes, emails, notes, etc. in one place.
10. Friendly and to the point – My sister in law was not pleased with the seating arrangement and came up to Emily to see if she can get things changed around. Emily reminded her in a very professional tone that the seating chart was made by the bride and groom.
11. Trust – My husband and I trust her and will fly her down to Chicago for our next event.
Improvement
1. First aid kit - I would suggest for future events to have a “first aid kit” with pins, spray, and anything else that may arise on the day of
2. Writing – Emails can be more direct and clearly define action items
Having Emily on our team was by far the best decision we made during the wedding planning process. Not only did she bring insightful and creative ideas to decor, but she created a brilliant timeline and kept the entire day in order. She not only was someone to talk to when deciding on details, she also sends reminders for payment and decision deadlines. Emily's attention to detail was amazing and there are no words to describe how she helped us pull off such a special day. Thank you for everything, Emily!
Emily is very talented! She took care of all the decorations, accessories, pictures, candy bar, etc for my wedding ceremony and reception this past August on St. Simons Island at the King and Prince Resort. I talked to her about my vision, she then came up with a vision board with her suggestions. She is honest and will tell you the truth about what decor looks good and what does not. She was available most times I needed her via email as well as over the phone. On the day of the wedding, I fell in love with all of the decor and the detail and thought that went into making everything work. It was absolutely beautiful! I highly recommend Emily!
Emily is the absolute BEST! From my first email to her until after my wedding, Emily went above and beyond. As a person, she's incredibly sweet, caring, and personable. As a business owner, she's organized, reliable, and professional. And most importantly, as an event designer, she's perfection! Emily truly took the time to listen and look at all of my ideas and organize them into a vision unique to my husband and me. Her mood boards are awesome and the final product is true to her proposal. As a matter of fact, we were shocked by the quality, variety, fullness, and quantity of the final product -- Emily is worth every single penny. Love you, Emily! Wish I could do the day all over again!
The flowers and design were absolutely stunning. Going into the first meeting I didn't have the exact vision of what I wanted, but Emily worked with me until we had it nailed down. I found pictures of a wedding I really liked and she took the concept and made it even more beautiful than I could have imagined. She is also really upfront with the cost of what it will take to get your "vision" and will work with you on creating something that works within your budget.
Overall, I had a really great experience with Emily and would highly recommend her.
I booked Emily as my florist and wedding planner for the rehearsal dinner and the day of the wedding. I have absolutely NOTHING bad to say about her. I am actually blown away by how amazing Emily and her team was. It was sunny all day during my wedding but then right before the ceremony it stormed, bad. But somehow, some way, Emily and her team made my wedding day PERFECT. Not to mention I had a specific vision for the floral part of the wedding and she hit it SPOT ON. I mean, my flowers were EXACTLY what I pictured in my head and even more. Whoever is looking for a wedding planner and a florist, you are making a HUGE mistake if you do not choose Emily. Plus, two vendors in one makes the planning process much easier! THANK YOU EMILY!!!
Emily Burton and her team are truly amazing! I don't know if anything I can write will fully explain how beyond happy, excited, thrilled, and amazed we were with our wedding! Emily is one of those people who love every minute of what they do and it shows in her work. She went above and beyond anything we could of asked for. We had events over three days and she put her heart and soul in each one to make them each special and unique. She looked at every little detail, things I would of never thought of, to take it to the next level. Working with Emily is like working with a close friend!
Emily Burton Designs can do pretty much anything! Besides planning and coordinating our wedding, so it went of without a hitch, they also did our flowers, did custom wood artwork and provided us with some stunning decor! The flowers, oh my goodness, the flowers, they were just beyond amazing. I wish I could put pictures, she surprised me at our reception by taking a three tired stone water fountain that sat in them middle of the courtyard at our venue and filled it with flowers, just beautiful and another thing she did to just make the day more special than it already was. If I ever threw out an idea or something that I thought would be cool, Emily and her team found it or found someone who could make it. I really got everything I wanted for our wedding and so much more!
I can't rave enough about Emily and her design team! Emily went above and beyond from start to finish. We had a long distance wedding, so on numerous occasions she even skyped with us to make us feel like she was with us every step of the way. She far exceeded my expectations for my dream wedding I envisioned! The attention to detail that she brings in her design is what separates her from the rest. She takes the time to get to know you and puts her heart into all her work, which is something that I didn't experience with other vendors. Our wedding wasn't just another event. With Emily, I felt like our wedding was her ONLY event!
Emily Burton Deisgns is AMAZING!!! Emily was my absolute favorite vendor of all the vendors that I used for my wedding. It feels weird calling her a vendor because I truly feel like I have made a friend for life. From the very beginning of the process, Emily was awesome. My wedding was out of town and I needed someone who could handle florals as well as overall design and decor. I interviewed three other "design teams" and Emily was the only one who was willing to work within my budget. The others kept telling me that my "taste was too expensive for my budget". Emily, however, worked with me and suggested less expensive flowers or decor that would still be beautiful. I am not the typical bride in that I did not have a folder or Pinterest page of wedding ideas. Emily was sooo patient and helped me develop my overall theme. I even changed my wedding colors halfway through and she never got frustrated with me. She was truly amazing. Emily was the one vendor that I totally and completely trusted. My wedding was supposed to be outside; however, when the forecast started to predict rain, Emily went to my backup indoor venue room for me since I was out of town!!! She calmly called me and already had ideas for decorating the indoor backup room which turned out perfect! Just before the wedding Emily revealed the reception room to me and I literally cried!!! It was BEYOND AMAZING AND OVER THE TOP!!! She totally took everything that I said I wanted and made it absolutely breathtaking! Everyone is still talking about how beautiful the flowers and decor were. Working with Emily Burton Designs has been the highlight of my whole wedding planning process. She is professional, totally gifted, and tons of fun! All of my friends commented that I seemed so relaxed before the wedding. And, I was because I totally trusted Emily. I knew it would be beautiful....and it was!!!
It is hard to describe in words the amazing job Emily Burton and her company Emily Burton Designs did to bring my wedding vision to life. As a customer, I was beyond thrilled with Emily's work. As someone with no event designing experience, I was blown away by the talent that Emily Burton Designs offers. First and foremost, Emily is a wonderful, professional person to work with. Upon our first meeting, she really listened to what I wanted and helped guide me toward ideas that were out of the box and ahead of the trends. I was introduced to Emily through my wedding coordinator, Terri Gilbreath from G.G. Events. Emily worked seamlessly with Terri to map out and design the perfect wedding design for me. Additionally, the attention to detail Emily provided was beyond any expectations I could imagine. Within a smaller than average budget, Emily produced (in my opinion), the most beautiful, picturesque wedding reception imaginable. Upon my arrival at the reception, I noticed certain details executed that I had offhandedly emailed to Emily over the course of my one year wedding planning timeframe. From the bouquets, to the corsages, to the Bride and Groom chairs, to the table settings...everything was absolutely perfect. Her florist arrangements were the most beautiful works of art I have ever seen. Not to mention, Emily was there from early in the day to set up and came back after the reception ended to clean everything up and bring all the arrangements inside to the house where the reception was being held for my family and I to enjoy throughout the next week. She worked tirelessly, endlessly, and her passion for her work was eminent throughout. I would highly recommend Emily Burton Designs to anyone looking for a phenomenal florist and/or event designer. Emily is the best and I feel so honored to have her work displayed at my wedding!
Emily was amazing in every way. Leading up to the event she made sure to communicate with me on a regular basis and ask important questions to ensure my vision showed through in the design and floral arrangements. She was always organize, professional, and just a pleasure to spend time with. Emily brought all my dreams to reality...and her creativity even brought dreams I didn't know I had to reality. She created a space that I never could have imagined - combining my vision of gold with the ambiance of Dubai (where I grew up!). And what is even more impressive is that on the day of my wedding there was an 80% chance of rain and Emily moved the entire reception inside. It was so perfect that my guests didn't even realize that it was ever planned any other way. Emily totally went with the flow on my wedding day but kept everyone and everything in line that it was just perfect. Thank you Emily for an OUT OF THIS WORLD wedding. I am so lucky to now have you in my life! xxoo!
Emily did a wonderful job making flowers for my wedding. She was very pleasant to work with and easy to contact. All I had to do was call her and then send her pictures of ideas I had and she was able to come up with the rest. She was great and the flowers for the whole day were amazing!
All I had to do was give Emily my vision. I showed her lots of pictures but then explained that I wanted my wedding to be personal and unique. Emily delivered both of these aspects! She not only used the items I wanted but handled them with the utmost care as many were heirlooms. Emily was very easy to contact throughout the entire process and helpful when I had any questions or changed my mind. She was also very honest as to what flowers and greenery I could use during my event and did not make promises that she could not keep. When it rained at my wedding she was already on top of things and relocated the beautiful creations when needed. I still have several of her creations displayed in my home and will be able to keep them for years! I would highly recommend Emily and her team for any event! I plan on using her again just for fun as I love her designs!
Summed up in one word, Emily is amazing! I got married on October 5, 2013 at Dunham Farms in Sunbury, Georgia. Unfortunately, I’m not much of a “girly-girl” – fashion and decorating just isn’t my forte. I was referred to Emily from a college friend of mine’s mother who had worked with her previously, and thank goodness she did! Although I’m sure I’m biased, I truly believe my wedding was the most beautiful and consistently themed wedding I have ever been to! It looked straight out of a fairy tale.
The best part about working with Emily was how EASY it was. I try my best to live as stress-free as possible, and even though it sounds impossible to do for a wedding, I can honestly say that stressing out was not an issue with mine! It was as simple as sharing my wedding Pintrest board with Emily, a phone conversation and emails discussing my “vision,” and voila! – flowers and décor even more beautiful than I had ever dreamed. Not only did Emily do what I wanted, she also went above and beyond to make my day extra special. I mean, not everyone would be more than happy to carve out multiple pumpkins for table arrangements and aisle runners. She also visited my venue beforehand to make sure what she had planned would work and ended up making some fabulous changes!
Furthermore, on the day of my wedding, we found out there had been some miscommunication – I forgot to tell her we were having a head table. As soon as she found out, she let me know, but assured me that she would take care of it, even if it meant going to a nearby store to throw something together. I could tell in her voice that I had nothing to worry about, and was right. When I got to the reception, you couldn’t even tell it wasn’t planned. It was just as beautiful as everything else!
The first time I met Emily, I felt like I had known her my whole life. She’s super friendly, knows her stuff, and works hard! If you are looking for a florist and decorator that makes sure you feel no stress and puts in 110% to make your day EXACTLY what you want and then some, she’s your girl! Not only did she handle the decorations that she brought, but she also set up everything extra my mom and I had brought. She was always there to answer any questions I had and always ready to help in any way possible! I wouldn’t change a thing about my wedding and will be forever grateful for picking Emily Burton for my wedding! It wouldn’t have been the same without her.
Emily was amazing to work with on my recent ceremony! The flowers were gorgeous and the little details she added put my bouquet over the top. Most of all, she was so friendly--something every bride needs. Even though my wedding was very small and simple, she treated me like I was spending tens of thousands. All the guests commented on the flowers, and how perfect they were for our ceremony. I told them I wished they could have met Emily! She was so enthusiastic about what she does and really listens to give you exactly what you have envisioned. Highly recommended!
Emily was Simply Fabulous! No matter how many emails or questions on my dress or what I wanted, she was prompt and very professional. Emily listened to my ideas as to my likes and desires and made it happen for me! The arrangements were outstanding. I was a ball of crazy! She helped to put me and my nerves at ease. She talked to me as a friend and not as a client she was working with. Emily has such a wonderful, fun, loving spirit. She goes above and beyond. She loves what she does but her true pleasure comes thru by making the couples happy. Emily and Sarah are a fantastic dynamite duo!
I loved working with Emily, she is such a sweetheart and exceeded my expectations. Being a destination wedding, I mostly worked with her via lots of emails and phone calls, which scared me a little because I was worried she wouldn't get my vision for my wedding. Boy was I wrong! Emily went above an beyond to make sure everything was perfect! Not only was it everything I wanted, but it was better. She is so creative and easy to work with, even my wedding coordinator kept saying how wonderful she was and how she went above what a typical "florist" would do. Emily helped set up everything rather than just dropping all the flowers off. The flowers were beautiful and fresh, lasting not only for the entire wedding but for days later! She truly made my wedding day better than I expected. I would recommend her services to anyone, she is definitely worth the money!
Emily did beautiful work and comes highly recommended!! She was on time and always a pleasure to talk to and work with.
Emily Burton was awesome!!! She went above and beyond to make my day special. She was very helpful w/ helping me realize and bring forth the way I wanted everything to look. She also made me feel calm about how everything was going to look and be done in time. Because of her my wedding day was beatiful and I was able to enjoy every bit of it. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants to have a beautiful wedding day. She even helped me make decisions that were not just about flowers and am bery grateful for her thoughtfulness and input. Anyone looking to have an amazing wedding should call on her to help design the wedding of your dreams..
I got married on 10-06-12 in Jekyll Island. Planning a destination wedding was stressful at times. Emily made the process very easy. She was great to work with and allowed me to change my order 3 times as my wedding grew. She went above and beyond and help stage the beach for the ceremony at no additional charge. Her work was beautiful and she is truly a sweetheart.
Everything was incredible!! I would recommend this vendor to any and everyone!
