    Duane was very easy to work with and was very professional. He listened to my mom's ideas for what she wanted for her day and they worked together to make the day beautiful. He pays attention to every fine detail, which was very important to us. The look of the hall was exactly what she wanted and the flowers were gorgeous. Absolutely outstanding!!!! We received so many compliments. Thank you so much again for everything.

    Duane gave my husband and I the most beautiful, classy, and elegant wedding I've ever seen!! He was professional, had very unique ideas, and worked really well with our other vendors. Duane is very creative (I would have never thought to put my cake on the dance floor!) and he really knows how to give you what you ask for. Don't waste your time looking for other vendors--- he does flowers, decorations, backdrops, seat covers, you name it. He's also great about those special little details you don't think of. My husband and I both recommend him highly. Call him soon though--he books up quickly!!

    Duane did a fabulous job creating the atmosphere that my husband and I wanted, simple and beautiful. All of our guests commented on how beautiful it looked. We got married outside on a patio at a golf course. It looked stunning. Our theme was enchanted forest. From the owl chocholates to the mason jars that looked like there were fireflies in them and random votives in jars sitting on stones, it was perfect. Duane kept everything moving in a timely manner and we never second guessed
    anything. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding day.

    This vendor understood what vision we wanted for this venue, gave us terrific ideas, and followed through with what was contracted and more! We were the parents of the bride. When we entered the reception hall for the first time all we could say was "WOW", "Amazing"! It was truly beautiful. The staircase was draped with beautifully flowing fabric, as were the windows and ceiling. Uplighting that Duane provided, washed the walls with color to soften the overall look of the room. What he did with the escort table was exquisite! The most important comment we heard all night was from the bride and groom, who said this was everything they had hoped the reception hall would be! Enough said.

    I feel that Designs by Duane Leamer is the utmost in what all professional wedding vendors should emulate. My wedding day was picture perfect because of Duane and his staff. He is very professional and gave me the most beautiful bouquets and table decor that I've ever seen, not to mention the service florals. Breathtaking. All of the special touches that he put into my wedding made it something to be talked about for years to come. I've never seen anything like it, he is just amazing. Thank you Duane for one of the most beautiful weddings that I've ever seen. Your work is unmatched.

    Designs by Duane Leamer exceeded my expectations in every way!! As a nervous bride (and who isn't??), I was amazed at how effortlessly he took care of EVERY detail---made it seem like now work at all!!!! I also need to comment about the amount of time he took getting to know ME and what was important to me for my wedding. A lot of companies I interviewed just didn't seem to have the "personal touch" I was looking for...made me feel like I would get the "standard-issue" wedding---something No BRIDE wants or should have to re-mortgage a house for!!! Not only did my special day make me feel like a princess, but DBDL gave me the wedding of my DREAMS at a FRACTION of what the other companies had quoted me!!! I can't say enough about DBDL...if you want your dream wedding with NO PROBLEMS, special little "personal touch" extras at an unbelievable savings...GO WITH Designs by Duane Leamer!!!!!

    I am a photographer, and see florist and other vendors on a weekly basis. When it came to planning our wedding, Duane was the only option. To say that this guy is great is an understatement. He is an amazingly kind and caring person and his work with floral arrangements and the overall feel that he can bring to a room is untouchable by others! He listens, calls back, works with the budget, offers opinions, and does amazing work. All at a fair price and a big smile on his face! He is the only florist that I recommend to my clients as well.

    Duane provided my wedding day with elegance and beauty with all of my flowers, and decor for the reception hall. I was able to talk to him about my ideas, and we worked thru them together to make sure they would be the best match! My flowers were absolutely beautiful and colors were spot on with my colors of my wedding party.

    There were a few accidents that happened with the centerpieces a few days before the wedding, but Duane made sure they were corrected, and made sure that I did not worry about anything.

    If I had to do it all over again, I definately would, and in fact I have recommended him to most of my friends!!

    When my husband and I renewed our vows 2 years ago, I found Duane on Craigslist and WOW did he deliver! I was on a limited budget. At the time what started as a small affair to be held at a small local lounge turned into a much bigger affair (nearly 100 people @ the hotel where we first married: The Renaissance Hotel. Even after changing venues (AND moving to a larger ballroom just 10 days before our vow renewal) Duane worked with me, my champagne tastes (on a beer budget) and made EVERYTHING look like a million bucks! Duane himself is Fun, FABULOUS and Fierce! He might seem a bit "much" at first but I guarantee you he will NOT disappoint and you WILL have fun along the way! I tell my husband WHEN we hit the lottery we'll renew our vows yearly and the first call I would make is to Duane! -Chrisinta Neft/Pittsburgh
