Nico is a creative genius and a great guy. He is the best in the biz and I knew I needed him before I even got engaged! He made my vision come to life, and then some. His florals are top quality, his service is professional, helpful, and reliable. I got so many compliments at the wedding. I would highly recommend his beautiful work to anyone who loves flowers and wants it to be the showcase of their wedding!

Nico in a word is FABULOUS.

He came so very highly recommended by our other wedding vendors and perfectly captured our vision and coral/blush/ivory/white color palette to create a stunning backdrop that literally took my breath away when I saw the finished version at our reception.

Some of my favorite parts of working with him were:
- He is extremely familiar with all of the Santa Barbara venues and vendors so was able to highlight the natural beauty of our venue and showcase how gorgeous Southern California is (great for out of town guests).
- Getting married outdoors presents many logistical concerns (wind, animals, lighting) and Nico was prepared with solutions and back up plans for everything
- He also surprised us and coated our outdoor aisle with white and ivory rose petals which created the most beautiful ceremony area-what bride wouldn't love to walk down an aisle that looked so incredible?
- His collection of furniture decor is fantastic-instead of traditional escort card tables, Nico organized ivory cards with colored ribbons hanging from wrought iron gates (a nod to my British heritage).
- He has tons of ideas about how to re-purpose flowers throughout the event-ie bridesmaids bouquets were used on the dinner bar, aisle arrangements from the ceremony were transferred to the couch/sitting area, table flowers were used for brunch the next morning, etc

He is truly a creative genius and my mom and I ADORED working with him-wish we could do it all over again!

We have worked with NLC Productions countless times over the years, and have never been anything less than AMAZED at the work they produce. They create inventive, unique, and jaw-dropping designs, and are a blast to work with. We are always excited when one of our clients books with them so that we are able to work with them again!

Nico is a conceptual designer. When you're talking with him about your event, you can almost see the wheels of creativity turning in his head. He is not a cookie cutter event designer. Because he's an artist, he challenges himself to make sure your wedding or event is not only gorgeous, but unique and personal to you as well. He's got a published book on design, and he is a sought after speaker for event designers. As a photographer, I am always excited to photograph the eye candy Nico brings to each event.
