Michelle was organized, professional and very insightful! She exceeded our expectations with all she did for us throughout the year of planning not only with the planning but with the support of any issues that may have come up.
I am extremly pleased and grateful for the service I received. I would recommend Bespoke Event Design to anyone needing help in planning their wedding.

Michelle is INCREDIBLE and AMAZING!!! :o)
Everyone asks me if having a wedding planner was worth it and I must say that Michelle is definitely worth her fee and more! She makes you feel comfortable and like a friend right away. She has great vendor contacts, as she only works with the best!
Michelle is extremely helpful, friendly and responsive. She was a joy to work with and I will definitely recommend her to friends and family. Having her there every step of the way was very helpful and comforting and having her coordinate the day of was priceless as myself, my husband and my family we free to enjoy the wedding and not worry about a thing. She made our dream wedding come to life, while keeping us on budget which is incredibly important when planning such an expensive event.
Thank you Michelle for all your time, energy and professionalism! You are a star!

1. Did not perform duties laid out in contract. I paid for day of services and design and planning. She proposed to hire another vendor to do the design which was charging me an absurd for candles and decor. I ended up researching decor myself and buying everything I needed.
2. Do not be misled by photos of her work (the design could have been done by the brides themselves as I was responsible for much of the design even though I paid her for design services.)
3. On the day of the wedding I set up the desert table on my own, which took a way time from enjoying the cocktail hour with guests and family. Even though I had given Michelle a photo and detailed explanions of what I wanted on the dessert table she did not do it and I had to set up with the help of friends and family.
4. She was unresponsive to vendors. I gave her a list of vendors so that she could coordinate with them for day of delivery and provide them with the information they needed. Leading up to the wedding and the day before he wedding I received calls from several panicked vendors saying they did not have the address of the wedding venue or any details as to time and location of drop off. They had attempted to contact Michelle several times and she never responded. I had to coordinate with all vendors even though I paid Michelle for this service.
4. Did not clean up after wedding- When the wedding ended I had to clean up and deal with what to do with all the flowers that were left in the venue. Michelle left the party at midnight, even though we had booked it until 2am. My husband and I were cleaning up until 4am.
5. Rehearsal - she did nothing. She sat to the side of the church on her phone the entire time. My bridesmaids who had been married were the ones who helped me coordinate the rehearsal, giving me tips and answering questions the minister was asking.

I didn't understand the value of a wedding planner before meeting Michelle. She came highly recommended to us from a friend that had used her for her own wedding. We simply did not know where to begin! After meeting with her I felt at ease and knew that she would be able to help design and plan the wedding that I was envisioning.
The passion that she has for weddings shows in her work. Her ability to provide us with multiple options for budget was unreal. I know that without her we would have not been able to pull off the wedding that we did. Her professionalism and creativity really made it easy to discuss anything with her. Our wedding was truly unique and we loved the design details and styling that was incorporated into the wedding. It was such a wonderful experience and would recommend her and her team to every couple.

Michelle K. did an amazing job. Michelle was very resourceful. She had a list of vendors ready to handle almost every aspect of the wedding. From Linens to entertainment to Decor, Michelle K. was not only able to recommend, but also obtain estimates and arrange appointments when neccessary. Very, very easy to work with. She listened to my desires and pulled off an elaborate event. Michelle K. went above and beyond to ensure the whole day was perfect! Very personable and easy to work with and took away any worry I may have had!!!! Loved working with her and would recommend her for many other future events!!! Thank you for making my wedding a day I will cherish forever!!!

Dear Michelle & team,

We cant thank you enough!

Michelle is an absolute professional in every way and worth every penny and then some. She is incredibly creative and will provide you with a one of a kind, personalized wedding.
She was able to take my very general, scattered ideas of what I wanted and create a wedding that was better than I would have ever imagined. She worked with us to design every aspect of our day, including invitations, stationary, menu, floral, tablescape, lighting, design & décor.

She has a very unique & distant style & great taste. She has a true understanding of trends and a gift for design.
She understands what is classic, chic & timeless, yet can make it new, fresh, and unique.
She is also smart, funny, and extremely attentive. It was like having a good friend plan your wedding.

Michelle helped me relax in the weeks leading up to our big day. She went out of her way to help with some challenges we had with our venue and did so in an incredibly professional manner. On the day of, I was able to relax and enjoy every moment because I knew that she had everything under control.The day flowed beautifully, and I was able to enjoy and savor ever aspect of the wedding as a special guest.

My only recommendation is to let go of the reins and TRUST her. Your wedding will be a million times more beautiful and special if you let her have creative freedom.
Regadless of the size of your guest list or budget, Michelle and her team will be able to work with you and plan the wedding you are dreaming of!

We cant recommend her enough!

Michelle was incredibly patient with us as a couple. She helped us get organized, give us ideas and help plan our big day. She listened to our ideas and gave us positive comments.

Her creativity was off the charts and helped make our wedding incredibly beautiful. To this day, our family and friends comment at how beautiful yet classy our wedding was.

We believe she was the best investment in our wedding activities.

My husband and I just got married this past weekend and we could not have had a more perfect day if it weren't for Michelle's creativitiy and hard work. We both have very busy work schedules, and planning this wedding was something we both did not have the time (nor creativity) to do. We met Michelle at the Toronto bridal show and we found her very personable, level headed, and experienced. Our wedding was planned and completed in a little less than a year, and was pretty much on budget.

Michelle is an amazing wedding planner. She is very creative, efficient, professional, and is always open to ideas (and always willing to give great ideas when you don't have any)! She booked all our appointments with our vendors, attended several appointments with us, and recommended very reliable and talented vendors.

We both highly recommend Michelle for planning any wedding, and will miss working with her. This was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding day.

Melissa and Chris
