About

Weddings are romantic and timeless events and as such, we strive to not only create a beautiful event, but a beautiful experience.

Our strength is being able to seamlessly guide newly engaged couples through a personalized and well composed wedding planning experience. Collaborating with you as much or as little as you would like and letting your vision lead the planning process is our focus. We can't wait to see your love story and personality show through in each intentional detail.

Attention to detail, creating a cohesive design through the client’s visions, producing clear and concise communication plans for vendors and bridal party alike and having a back-up plan for everything are just a few of the areas of event planning where we excel. Aesthetically, we are inspired by nature, letting timeless and simplistic details lead the design process.

As a boutique event-planning studio based out of Ann Arbor, Michigan, we service the greater Detroit area and love traveling for weddings, especially to Northern Michigan.

an eye for detailed design

Nicole made our wedding day possible. Without her strategy, organization, and knowledge of the industry, we would have been totally (for lack of a better word) screwed. She helped us plan the event on a family property, which meant bringing every aspect of the big day to our site. That is A LOT to consider, especially with a bride and a groom who have ideas all over the place, but we were in good hands with Nicole. She has a true eye for design and was only encouraging in helping us make decisions before the wedding. She and her team also did our flowers, which were absolutely stunning and the arrangements came second nature to her. We cannot thank her enough for making our crazy ideas a reality!

Best Decision We Made!!!

If we could give more than 5 stars we would! We don't have any other way to describe our experience with Nicole as anything other than out of this world! She truly helped our vision come to life. From beginning to end she was outstanding with communication and also helped answer any questions we had regardless of how small or petty it may have been! She made the whole wedding planning process so much more stress free. I really felt like I had nothing to worry about on our big day because Nicole was all over it. She knows so much about the business. She also did our florals which she nailed as well! All in all, I don't know what we would have done without her. Nicole is truly a class act and we are forever thankful for her being a part of our day! I HIGHLY recommend to any future bride!! You won't regret going with Compose Events!

Highly recommend!

We hired Nicole as a month-of coordinator and florist for our wedding. She was such a delight to work with from the go. She prompted thoughtful questions, paid close attention to detail, and helped us play with different ideas for the big day. No disposables? No seating chart? No parking? - no matter the idea we proposed - her design process and ability to problem solve were both creative and dynamic! She was really put to the test when, an hour before the ceremony, a beautiful sunny day turned into torrential thunderstorms. Our wedding was outdoors and Nicole quickly sprang into action, moving decor, rearranging tables, coordinating transport of guests to the tent rather than the outdoor ceremony site, and communicating with us all the while. My husband and I agree she was definitely the most important person we hired for the wedding and can't imagine the day (or weeks leading up) without her. She allowed us to feel relaxed (even as it rained sideways) and enjoy the day/the people around us the day of! If you're hesitating...don't. She's worth it.

Best decision ever

Nicole was the best decision I’ve ever made (besides deciding to marry my now husband). About 2 hours into our wedding day my mom turned to me and said “I don’t know what you are paying your wedding planner but you should double it.” Nothing about our wedding was simple. From a non-wedding venue, catering our own food and some unique design choices - she handled everything with excitement and ease. The weeks leading up to and day of were absolutely flawless. I felt so calm. She handled every single detail. She also did all the design and all the floral and it turned out SO BEAUTIFUL. At one point during the reception the strap on my dress completely broke and within minutes I was back on the dance floor bc she just casually sewed it back together. Overall, Nicole was so amazing and I am so grateful for her to curating the best day of our lives. I have already recommended to her to anyone that will listen!

Nicole is one of the most refined and beautiful young women I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. She exceeded my expectations and always remained consistent. From the moment I met her, I felt like we had known each other forever. Her bright disposition and sincerity were completely transparent and I quickly realized how amazing she really is. Having her there for my month of coordination was seriously the absolute best decision we made for our wedding. She listened to me intently and remained patient with me as I flooded her email with ideas and plans. I appreciated so much her amazing attention to detail, her extreme work ethic and her ability to transform our venue into everything I dreamed of. She is literally the epitome of perfection. I learned so much from her, and I wholeheartedly admire her veracity and poise. It was so easy to trust her. From the very beginning she was organized, efficient, and completely focused. I had no doubt in my mind that she would pull together the most beautiful wedding I have ever seen and I am pleased to say I was not at all wrong. She completely delivered and then some! She was an excellent wedding coordinator but she’s an even better friend :) Nicole, thank you from the bottom of my heart for being there with me and for creating the most stunning wedding I have ever seen in my life. Thank you so very much for everything. Love you doll!
