It is hard to find words to describe how awesome Atelier de LaFleur is; they are simply incredible. We hired them to be our event planner leading up to the wedding as well as our d...ay-of coordinator and we were so impressed with their work every step of the way.
To summarize what I've written below, the staff at Atelier de LaFleur are dependable, creative, competent, flexible, efficient, organized and just generally great to work with. Their hard work leading up to and on the day of our wedding allowed my husband and I to spend the entire weekend present and in the moment with each other and our families. We literally didn't worry about one thing on our wedding day because we knew if something might come up, they would handle it.
To give some context, our wedding was in a very remote area in the mountains/desert outside of Tucson. The ceremony was held at my parent's home and the reception was at a nearby rural ranch (think dive bar meets horse ranch).
Having seen examples of Atelier de LaFleur's work and loving all of it, we were completely open to their aesthetic and design vision from the get-go; we basically just let them do their thing with flowers, decorations, lighting, etc. and we couldn't have been more impressed with the results. She totally understood that we wanted to transform a slightly run down ranch into a magical, unique and unforgettable experience, and she executed that vision flawlessly.
From day one, they were incredibly responsive and always available by phone, text and email. We really appreciated that in the beginning stages of planning, they helped us dream big and then as our timeline progressed, they helped us narrow down our priorities to keep the cost within our budget.
They made multiple site visits prior to the wedding to ensure that the day would run smoothly and that all of our vendors would have the logistical support they needed. Our reception site was a bit of a challenge to work with at times, but they led the charge with frequent communication which really took the stress off of us. Erin, our planner, also checked in with us in the months leading up to the wedding to make sure we had done the unglamorous things like buy our wedding bands and figured out licensing (both of which had slipped our minds! Thanks, Erin!)
They helped source the tent, designed the flowers/boutonnieres, lighting, candles and decorations and our venue was truly sparkling and magical after they was done. They also added some decorations to the ceremony space and our Airstream rental to give it the perfect desert vibe we were after.
Since we live out of state, we really relied on them for vendor recommendations. We ended up hiring nearly everyone they suggested (caterer, cupcake vendor, DJ, tent/supply vendors and hair/makeup artist (all of whom we LOVED!)). In addition to those vendors, they also helped coordinate our late night taco truck, guest bus transportation to/from the venue, photographer and photo booth staff. The night ended up being incredibly windy and they made some last-minute adjustments to make sure everyone stayed safe and comfortable. Somehow, despite all of this work, Erin still checked in with my husband and I throughout the night with a smile to make sure we had enough food/water/bevs and address any issues that arose. I'm telling you - they is the best!
We had an ideal experience working with Atelier de LaFleur and we are forever grateful at how smoothly and beautifully everything turned out
