Stunning and Sweet

Ellen was our Boulder guide, cheerleader, design consultant and florist. She designed arrangements I couldn't even imagine coming out as beautiful as they did. I wanted a bohemian, natural, green and Spring mountain landscape motif. I sent her some ChatGPT generated ideas with flowers that weren't even real flowers and she outdid every bit of it on the big day. She took us to coffee to nail in final design plans. She came over the day before the wedding to bring hair flowers and give us instructions on how to place them and keep everything fresh. She arrived early at our venue to set everything up so it would look perfect. She helped my little flower girls perfectly pin in their hair pieces. She found the most beautiful and creative little flowers and berries I'd never seen before to bring in exactly the colors I wanted. Amazing! The whole wedding was beautiful and sweet thanks to Ellen who I (obviously) highly recommend.

5 Stars Isn't Enough

I cannot recommend Ellen highly enough. I didnt have a wedding planner, and Ellen was an absolute saving grace for my wedding planning. She helped me figure out my vision, was flexible with changes along the way, and made it spectacular. She was amazing working with my budget to create exactly what I was looking for. The day of she was such a wonderful person to have on site. She made family tear up with her kind words, improvised perfectly when issues arose setting up, and created the most beautiful arrangements. She is an artist and I am so, so grateful for her work. I wish I could give more than 5 stars.
