This review is long overdue (about a year and a half late!), but we still think about how incredible Elsa and team were every time we look back on our wedding weekend in Seattle. Planning an Indian wedding means juggling a lot of moving parts — multiple events, guests flying in, venue changes, last-minute changes to the ceremony/events, etc— and Elsa handled every single detail with such grace, positivity, and professionalism.

She went above and beyond to accommodate our many last-minute requests and cultural nuances without ever overwhelming us or pushing back on ideas. Instead, Elsa brought creative, thoughtful solutions that made our celebration feel both personal and effortless. On the days of our events, her calm energy and seamless coordination allowed us and our families to be fully present — something we’ll always be grateful for.

Even after all this time, we still hear from guests about how beautifully orchestrated the weekend felt, and that’s 100% thanks to Juliet + Lou’s magic behind the scenes. If you’re planning a multicultural or multi-day celebration, there’s truly no better team to have by your side. I only wish we had leaned on the team for more help because they are truly incredible!!!

Elsa and her team at Juliet and Lou brought our island wedding dreams to life with exceptional care and creativity. Elsa’s calm demeanor and graceful energy were a true gift throughout the planning process, easing the stress and allowing us to fully enjoy the experience. Her deep expertise and meticulous attention to detail ensured that every aspect of our vision was beautifully executed. I cannot speak highly enough of the entire Juliet and Lou team—they are outstanding. I wholeheartedly recommend them for any wedding planning needs across Washington State, especially in the San Juan Islands.

We can't recommend Juliet + Lou enough. We used them for day of coordination for our wedding at the Olympic Rooftop Pavilion (Ballard Hotel.) Their help in the final 90 days leading up the wedding was crucial - helping us fill out requests from the venue, other vendors, and helping us manage the seating chart (even the day before our wedding when we had last minute cancellations.) My partner and I consider ourselves organized, but Elsa took it to another level. We were so thankful to have them!

Elsa was SUCH a pleasure to work with, every step of the way. She is incredibly professional and kind, and exhibits a remarkably calm energy! She served as our coordinator and florist, and was amazing in each capacity. Her design vision and execution was more than I could have ever asked for, and exactly the vibe I was looking to achieve. She read my mind!

It’s hard to capture how incredible a job Elsa did as our day-of coordinator. She was full of great ideas and insights due to her years of experience in the wedding industry. We have several extensive planning meetings before the wedding and she was present with every meeting we had with all our vendors. On the wedding day, she was always on top of things, and it did wonders to help us manage the anxiety of planning our big day. Elsa was a supremely calming presence, she was never rattled at any development. We had a last second pivot indoors due to unexpected rain and she immediately started working with us to figure out a new layout, communicate the new plan to all the vendors, and make sure everything ran smoothly. She was always two steps ahead, anticipating potential issues and coming up with solutions. Beyond her excellent work as our planner, she was also such a kind, professional, and fun person, and was truly excited and invested in helping to make our wedding everything we imagined. We highly, highly recommend using Juliet and Lou as your wedding planner!

We started working with Elsa in April 2023, hiring her for full Planning, Design, and Floral Design services for our wedding and rehearsal dinner in September 2024. Every planning meeting from April to September was such a joy. Elsa has an exceptional ability to bring your vision to life. She worked professionally with all our vendors, expertly coordinating a 60-person rehearsal dinner at a private residence and a 200-person wedding, all in the small town of Manson, WA. We had rentals from many different sources, with countless moving parts, yet Elsa managed everything seamlessly. Her calm and kind demeanor were a comforting presence, and she always appeared at just the right moments to guide us and ensure everything was perfect.
In addition to flawlessly coordinating both events, Elsa and her team made the day stunning with their floral designs. The flowers were breathtaking. Elsa’s eye for design is remarkable, and the little details and creative ideas she contributed, along with the floral arrangements, were absolutely gorgeous. The Juliet and Lou team worked with such care and intention; they were a joy to be around. We can’t recommend the Juliet and Lou team enough—they were truly incredible.

We worked with Elsa from Juliet + Lou for day-of wedding coordination and florals. Elsa was an absolute joy to work with for both of these services! Elsa was highly communicative and responsive through all phases of the planning process. She understood and executed our vision for our wedding perfectly, and even had great suggestions for other vendors. Elsa's hard work and attention to detail helped to make our wedding a truly special experience, and we would highly recommend her!!

We cannot say enough good things about the Juliet and Lou team. From start to finish, they thought of everything, down to the fine details. The communication was great throughout the entire process with frequent zoom meetings to make sure we were on track. As we approached the wedding, Elsa stayed on top of all of the vendors and found discrepancies on the bill at the venue, that saved us more than the expense of hiring her team! On top of all of that, the florals and design were stunning. From the bridal bouquets to decorating the cake, to the ceremony and reception. It was all beautiful! We also really appreciated Elsa’s calm demeanor and ability to go with the flow when last-minute, unexpected issues (like wind) arose. The wedding day itself was stress-free because they were on top of everything. It made that special day calm, relaxing, and enjoyable, as it should be. We would highly recommend Juliet and Lou for anyone needing a wedding planner and florist.

After our initial meeting with Elsa in November 2021, we decided to book her as our wedding planner for our July 8th, 2023 wedding. She seemed very professional, reliable and thoughtful. This impression was consistently demonstrated throughout the wedding planning process and we are so glad that we chose her. She was able to provide great vendor recommendations, assist with vendor meetings, draft the design proposal etc. We especially appreciated her on the day of the wedding- making sure to check in with us, seeing if we needed anything, handling the small details etc. I highly recommend Elsa if you are looking for a detail oriented, dependable and fantastic wedding planner!

We cannot speak highly enough of Elsa’s [Juliet & Lou] exceptional work in planning and designing our wedding. From the beginning, she demonstrated a high level of organization, attention to detail, and was proactive in addressing any potential issues or concerns. She listened carefully to our vision for the wedding, using her expertise and creativity to bring every detail to life flawlessly. Often, we were unsure on which direction to take with something, and she would always gracefully steer us in the right direction. By the end, she had earned our unconditional trust. She added a personal touch to everything she did for us; from the decor to giving us extremely thoughtful gifts, she made us feel truly unique and special.

On the day of the wedding, Elsa went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. She was there every step of the way, making sure every vendor was on schedule and personally ensuring that everything was set up perfectly. She even made sure to take us aside for a few minutes to look at the beautiful florals and design ahead of guests showing up to ensure we were able to fully take everything in. Her calm and reassuring presence made us feel relaxed and able to enjoy our special day to the fullest.

In addition to her outstanding planning services, we were also blown away by Elsa’s amazing design skills and most especially, her beautiful floral designs. She took our preferences into account and worked with us to select the perfect flowers and arrangements to complement our wedding theme and colors. She was even able to source almost all our favorite flowers (something that was incredibly important to the bride). The floral arrangements on the wedding day were absolutely breathtaking and surpassed our expectations. They were [one of] the highlights of the event, adding a touch of grandeur and elegance that made our day even more memorable. The floral runners/centerpieces at our reception were particularly breathtaking, and we received countless compliments from our guests.

Overall, Elsa’s professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to making us feel taken care of are what made the wedding the success that it was. We are so grateful for everything she did to make our wedding a truly magical and unforgettable experience. Elsa became more than just a vendor; she became a friend that we hope to always keep in touch with. We highly recommend her services and cannot thank her enough for making our wedding day so special.
