Tricia Hamil is the most gifted and creative planner I have ever had the pleasure of coordinating with, and trust me, I have met several lacking her sense of style and intuition. We knew straight away that Viridian was the way to go for our event. Tricia has a way of reaching in and seeing the fragmented vision you have for a wedding and guiding you down a path that will give life to that scene. I find it a rare and precious quality in a person to be able to elaborate upon, and derive from what a client truly seeks instead of just producing the pre-boxed package they already have in stock.
Our wedding was in Puerto Morelos, at an all-inclusive resort, with their own wedding planner, and cookie-cutter packages to choose from. It would have been a nightmare to have planned this without Viridian. They blazed straight past the resorts packaged event menu and created an event like that place had never seen. Once in Mexico, Tricia and a selection of her staff worked tirelessly for two days leading up to the ceremony. They purchased decorative pieces from a nearby fishing village and worked with a local wholesaler of native and festive flowers. Furthermore, Viridian was able to tell the resort exactly what we required for set-up at each event area instead of the resort dictating to us what we could and could not have. This was an invaluable asset because the resort would like nothing more than to charge as much as possible while giving as little effort as possible. The resort coordinator was 8 months pregnant (a detail they had not let us in on), and spoke almost no English. We saw her once, and she did not attend the ceremony. Without Viridian it would have been truly disastrous. I cannot fully describe how indebted I am to Tricia for making our day so incredibly magical and so especially ours. She gives and gives and gives, and the passion she has for her work is at the heart of what makes Viridian events unforgettable.
Additionally, I have attended numerous Viridian events finding each time that they have raised the bar and taken event design to new and uncharted heights! Tricia and her staff have and eye for detail and personal touch. It doesn’t get any more "custom" than Viridian. They are true craftswomen of design, and their floral arrangements are nothing short of works of art!
Thank you for everything!
