Peter James went above and beyond for our wedding! I had an abstract idea of what I wanted and he was basically able to extract it from my brain (even when it was difficult for me to articulate at times) and transform it into reality! Needless to say, we absolutely loved our floral arrangements for both our wedding and for my bridal shower. Not only was his artistry fantastic, but Peter was also a true pleasure to work with. He’s personable and funny and it shows that he’s genuinely passionate about what he does. He was responsive with our communications and mobilized fast for last minute edits. He makes you feel like he’s got it all under control (which is comforting for any bride to be). I would recommend Peter James and Couture Events of NJ without reservation and can personally say that I plan to seek his services for future events!

Peter from Couture Events was amazing! One phrase comes to mind when I think of Couture Events and that’s “peace of mind.” My husband and I first met Peter at a wedding expo, he was very nice and knowledgeable, and we immediately liked him. We made an appointment with him that very week to discuss everything in a little more detail. At first I had no clue what kind of flowers I wanted for my wedding, so when we sat down with him I told him what my wedding colors were and from that point forward, he blew us away. He planned everything from start to finish and while he always sought our approval, the man knows what he’s doing, we rarely went against his advice, and I’m thankful for that. The flowers and center pieces were absolutely stunning! My favorite color is blue and he found me these incredible blue orchids that matched my bridesmaid’s dresses perfectly. I have never seen such beautiful flowers and while I did check out a few other florists prior to meeting with Peter, nobody showed us anything close to these. He themed those orchids into everything at our wedding: our centerpieces, all the bouquets, boutonnieres, alter pieces, and flowers for my hair. All my guests commented on how beautiful everything was. Based solely on the quality of his product, I’d recommend him to anyone. On top of that, Peter is just a GREAT guy to work with. He’s extremely flexible and he was a ray of sunshine the day of our wedding. He came to the hotel that my husband and I were staying at to drop off the flowers. He gave us words of encouragement, a much needed hug, and instructed the bridal party how to hold our flowers throughout the ceremony.

When we were at our venue taking pictures before the ceremony started, he was there helping set up the center pieces. Every once in a while I would catch him giving me a thumbs up or mouthing gorgeous or reminding me to bring my flowers lower, in a very funny way that you will only get to know if you work with him. We met with Peter the week before our wedding to ensure everything was in place and when we walked into his office, he had our centerpieces all set up, exactly as they will look on the day of our wedding. I can’t tell you how nice that was, it just put our minds at ease, “This guy is ready for our wedding, no need to worry here.” Here’s my advice to anyone planning a wedding: Choose the vendors that gives you peace of mind, the ones that you know will deliver on their promises on your big day. With that in mind, we highly recommend Couture Events! If we do any major events in the future, we will definitely be going to Peter again.

Peter does fantastic work and his creativity is unbelievable. He did all the flowers for our 25th Anniversary/Vow Renewal party. My friends our still raving over the flowers and the party was last week. He is the greatest!
