    Amazing decor and an amazing experience

    We were so lucky and grateful to have Diane be apart of our wedding! we found her pretty early on in our wedding planning process and all the work and effort she put in to make our special day that much better was amazing. Picking out things we wanted and creating a vision was pretty easy, we trusted Dianes opinion in design ideas and we're glad we did she made our space look amazing. The day of Diane showed up early and thank god she did! She set up and organized everything so well we had an hour of down time to collect ourselves before the ceremony! This is a big thank you to everything Diane did for us and she was such a joy to have on our wedding day. For any wedding or party we definitely will be using her services again highly recommended!

    Simply amazing!

    My Husband and I got married on September 30th at the Heritage in Southbury, CT. Working with Diane for our dream day was incredible. We hired Lady Slipper Events to rent easels, signs, crates for our sweetheart table, centerpieces and to also have a custom seating chart. We also hired them to help with set up and break down of our wedding. Diane was so responsive, friendly and wonderful from the start. We just loved her! Everyone raved about the detail of our wedding and how special it was and Lady Slipper Events helped to make that possible! They were so helpful the day of and made the breakdown of the wedding so easy. We have nothing but incredible things to say about them!

    Rent your wedding decor

    Diane made it easy to rent decor for my wedding. I was able to view her inventory online and by stopping by her showroom. We chose a sign for our ceremony and a wine barrel table for our reception. Diane was easy to work with and quick to respond. She even offered delivery, for an extra fee, that made my life so much easier! The table was delivered and picked up without me even seeing anyone! Diane coordinated with my venue to make everything possible. I highly recommend Lady Slipper Affairs & Events for your wedding decor needs!!

    Best collection of vintage rentals in CT!

    Lady Slipper Affairs & Events has an amazing collection of vintage items at very reasonable prices that you will not find at other CT rental companies which mostly just have very basic plain items. Diane (the owner) is amazing! She is so sweet, very responsive, and flexible - and I would recommend checking out her showroom in Simsbury if you want to see her full collection or need inspo (it's an Etsy lover's dream!). You can either have the items delivered or pick them up yourself at her shop a few days ahead of your event - we went with the latter and it was super easy (she packages the items for you in boxes and you just need to load them in your car).

    I would definitely recommend Lady Slipper Affairs & Events! I will be using them for any rentals needs for future events. Thank you, Diane!

    Great experience!

    Diane was so fantastic to work with! She was so helpful, organized and just an overall great person! Her showroom helped me to make some final decisions and it was filled with a wide range of items for many different interests and styles. I would absolutely recommend Lady Slipper to anyone with an upcoming event…not just weddings!

    Diane is the best

    My wedding would not have been the same without Diane. Anytime I talk to my friends who are planning weddings and they talk about how stressed they are trying to diy centerpieces and other wedding design logistics, I hands-down recommend Diane from Lady Slipper Events. I try to spread the word as much as I can because I know how much I have appreciated Diane and her help with my wedding. I found out about Diane through googling for wedding decorators. I had no idea where to start with decorating my wedding other than an idea of the design I wanted (rustic, but chic). I showed Diane ideas of what I wanted through Pinterest and google, and she ran with it. Diane came up with these awesome table center pieces as well as beautiful displays at my wedding (sign in table, memory table). I received so many compliments at my wedding about how nice everything looked. She has rustic style decor, vintage style decor, contemporary style decor, you name it. And not only does she do decor, she also does beautiful flowers. I actually requested that she put together bouquets for myself and my bridesmaids and I absolutely love how they came out. So I didn’t even need a florist- Diane served as both my wedding decorator and florist- this was very helpful in reducing one extra vendor. She was incredibly flexible and helpful every step of the way. She was also very responsive to my texts and emails throughout the planning process. Her pricing is also very reasonable and she is transparent about costs every step of the way. In addition to all the great work Diane does, she is also such a sweetheart and it would brighten my day whenever I got to meet with her during the planning process- she is genuinely so nice. So anyways, if you are planning your wedding or you know someone who is, I highly highly highly recommend Diane. She will take care of all your wedding design and decor and make your event truly wonderful.

    Outstanding!

    Diane was absolutely phenomenal from the moment we contacted her regarding our wedding. She was professional, responsive, flexible, and helped us in creating our perfect vision. Diane also helped to create a welcome sign and “Mom-osa Bar” sign for my baby shower - the product perfectly fit my dream catcher / Sedona theme. I am so grateful Diane was recommended to me and hope to work with her in the future for any special events! I would highly recommend Diane to anyone planning an event (and already have!).

    Couldn’t recommend them more!

    Diane was truly amazing, my husband and I were planning our wedding for June 2021 not knowing how Covid would affect it. Diane made sure to make us feel confident in our choices for decor and was extremely flexible as far as final amounts for things because we truly didn’t know what we would be allowed to do. The store front is beautiful and the experience of getting to walk around to pick everything out was great. I highly recommend Lady Slipper, everything came out better than I expected!

    Great Experience, Highly Recommend!

    This was the second time my family and I have worked with Diane at Lady Slipper and this time was even better than the last. Diane has a keen eye for detail and made incredible suggestions to ensure that my wedding was absolutely beautiful. She got a sense of my style and was able to run with it. I could not have been happier working with her!

    Creative, professional and personable! Highly recommend her services!

    Lady slippers is phenomenal! She was incredibly professional, personable and creative. It was like she knew exactly what I wanted for our special day without me having to tell her. I got so many compliments from my guests asking for her card and contact info because they were so impressed with how she transformed a plain simple space into a fun, whimsical, playful space for family and friends to celebrate love and new beginnings! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for help with set up, design ideas and breakdown!

    She brought my vision to life! Fantastic experience!

    I first met Diane at a bridal show at UConn when my fiance and I were very early on in our wedding planning. I was absolutely amazed to see all of the decor she had and it was definitely a plus that you could simply rent (not buy) whatever you needed for your big day. I didn't want the hassle of spending $ and time making decor when I would likely throw it out after the wedding. From my first meeting with Diane to our wedding day, it was an absolute pleasure and so fun working with her. Not only does she LOVE weddings, but she has an amazing natural talent of listening to what you want and making it come to life for the big day. The decor Diane provided/made for our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more - everything was perfectly put together and complemented the venue and our theme so well. We got so many compliments and everyone loved the decor, so much so that many of our guests snapped pictures of everything before the ceremony started. If you aren't sure where to start with decor for an event and are in need of a professional who is knowledgeable, genuine, and fun to work with, look no further than Diane at Lady Slipper Affairs & Events. She is amazing, and I promise you will not regret it!

    The perfect solution to wedding decorating

    Working with Diane was such a pleasure. Such a great collection of decorations to chose from that made my daughters wedding complete. Everything was delivered to the venue on time and in perfect condition. We couldn't have pulled off such a magical wedding without Diane's assistance.

    Wonderful decor for my daughter's wedding

    We are so glad we had Diane help with the decor for my daughter's wedding. She was wonderful to work with - she had great ideas and suggestions after listening to our vision for the special day. Having her do the set up and break down on that day just helped make the day go so smoothly. She helped by putting together the welcome bags for our guests as well. She even bought some extra items when it turned out that I didn't buy enough for everyone. I would highly recommend using Diane for your special event!

    Amazzinggg!

    I am so happy that we chose Lady Slipper Events for our wedding! Diane was so great to work with from start to finish. Diane and her team did an incredible job - everything looked stunning! The decor was gorgeous and they created the wedding of our dreams. Diane made the stressful process of figuring out the decor and florals for the wedding MUCH easier! She was so easy to work with and flexible to our needs and budget! She was also very thorough in remembering what we discussed after every phone call and each detailed email. She definitely brought our vision to life with such ease and catered to our needs the whole time. She was also so generous to meet with us whenever and help answer any questions! It was so easy bringing my Pinterest dream to life and customizing centerpieces, color schemes, and floral arrangements with Lady Slipper! Both my husband and I loved our decorations at the church and reception and were very happy to see it all come together after just a month of planning! We also received many compliments on it so we would HIGHLY recommend Lady Slipper Events for any of your decor needs!

    Dream became Reality

    From the second I met Diane, I could just tell what a beautiful person she was. But now that I have experienced her skill and have been blessed with the graceful way she fulfills the need of a bride, I’m blown away. She communicates and is punctual, she helps with ideas when you’re stumped, and she is cool calm and collected in the face of last minute change! She took my vision and made a reality and we will always be grateful for that.

    Also, she has the cutest shop ever with all your needs...don’t buy it when you can rent it!

    Lovely items reasonably priced, professional and friendly service!

    I rented some items for a wedding recently and Diane was professional, flexible, and friendly. There was a very quick response to emails and any questions I had. Her rates are reasonable and she has a lovely storefront where you can see the items. It was like walking through a roomful of Pinterest dreams, but someone else did all the work!

    Diana and her team are angels. Everyone keeps telling us how beautiful everything looked at the wedding. It was a great stress relief to know somebody else was taking care of that and I could really just relax and enjoy the day. If you are thinking of using her, I will tell you in my first phone I cried when I got off the phone. All my stress melted away.

    When you have a vision or an idea of a dream wedding sometimes you can't articulate it as well as you'd like. Or even if you have just a couple ideas and are looking for some guidance in the creativity world. The Lady Slipper team will with out a doubt blow your mind over and over again. They helped me see the ideas I had through, and they also gave me some of their own ideas that fit perfectly with my vision. We had a NYE wedding, and every guest we had made a comment along the way with how "perfect" everything was. Some also asked us if we could throw that party every year because of how much fun it was. I couldn't agree more it was absolutely perfect!!!!

    Diane was amazing to work with. We got in contact with her about 30 days before our wedding. My husband had refinished an easel and we were looking for someone to write on it. The easel was going to be used outside for our ceremony telling guests to "choose a seat not a side, were all family once the knot is tied". Diane listened to my thoughts for the easel and sent me over a picture when completed. We couldn't have been happier with the penmanship, time and effort. Unfortunately two days before our wedding, the weather forecast wasn't looking good. I called Diane in a panic and let her know how much this easel meant to us. Twenty four hours before the wedding Diane was able to write on the other side of the easel so we could use it for our now indoor ceremony. Her ability to take on a task with such short notice meant the world to us. Everyone loved the easel! Diane also made us a custom sign for our cupcakes as well as hanging "reserved signs". We were fortunate to rent mercury votive jars from Diane and her prices can't be beat. Overall we would highly recommend Diane to others. She loves what she does and is willing to go out of her way for others!

    My son and his fiancé asked me to create the boutonnieres, bouquets, table arrangements and other decorations for their recent wedding and reception. Diane was extremely helpful! Their event was out of state and I did not have any experience with planning and executing such a large and formal gathering. I felt (a bit ;-) overwhelmed! Diane met with me several times and very patiently listened to me to talk through the vision I was asked to create and then suggested how she could help. She was able to get the flowers and greenery that I described, and supplied the apothecary jars, candles, table number holders and easel that I needed. Her rental fees were very fair. Diane's friendly personality, experience and talent helped alleviate the stress I was feeling about creating a beautiful atmosphere so that I could enjoy being Mother of the Groom!

    Diane was an absolute pleasure to work with on my wedding. She has great enthusiasm and passion for what she does, and it shows in the integrity of her work. She made the vision I had for my wedding come to life and I could not have accomplished it without her. I would recommend her time and time again.

    If I could give Diane and her team 10 starts.....I absolutely would!!! From the very first meeting, Diane was helpful, enthusiastic and creative in the décor options she presented, and was even willing to make several venue visits to make sure the concepts that we discussed could be flawlessly executed on the big day! We got a TON of compliments on the decorations and the overall ambience created for the event, with a majority of the credit belonging to Diane and Lady Slipper Affairs! Diane's team worked very well with the venue and coordinator, working quickly and efficiently to both set up and break down after the event. If you're looking for a caring, creative and competent partner for your big day decorations, please don't hesitate to give Diane and her team a chance to impress you and your guests!! <3

    Diane at Lady Slipper was one of the best vendors for my wedding. We originally hired her to have someone to set up the decor day or and breakdown day after and she did SO MUCH more. She came the day before the event and helped set everything up, provided last minute rentals from her collection that we had overlooked and gave her opinion all while undertaanding my esthetic and vision for our wedding. Always answers her phone or gets back right away and is always nothing but incredibly patient and lovely to talk with. Thank you Diane for making my wedding so beautiful!!

    Diane is just amazing! Lady Slipper was a great choice for my wedding. Diane always responded my emails right away. When I first met her, she completely understood my style and what I was looking for. Also, she provided creative ideas. She went out of her way to make sure that I had the table numbers I wanted. She packed all the rental items carefully. She definitely made the wedding planning less stressful for me. I highly recommend Lady Slipper!

    We were thrilled with the level of service and professionalism we received from Lady Slipper Affairs and Events. Diane was highly recommended by one of our family members after another recent wedding. And, we were very grateful. Diane was on top of all the details that we just didn't have time to coordinate ourselves. She helped to negotiate arrangements with vendors, and facilitate the event flow and setup and breakdown process. Diane was incredibly organized, experienced, and highly competent. Plus, she was warm and supportive, offering helpful advice and suggestions along the way. We can't recommend her highly enough!

    Lady Slipper did an excellent job setting up a candy table at my son's wedding. I supplied the candy and Diane did all the rest. She used beautiful apothecary jars which she decorated and labeled with attractive labels professionally printed with colorful backing that matched the colors of the candy and the decorated jars. Diane also put a candelabra and flowers on the table. She went out of her way to make sure that she had the correct colored flowers for the table. She also set the table up ahead of time and sent me a email of what the table would look like. This is a very nice service that she provides. With major events it is wonderful to know that you do not have to worry about what the table will look like. I could just relax and know that she was taking care of it and that it looked wonderful. Diane is also very accessible being available in the evenings or on weekends which I valued due to working full time. Her shop is full of numerous items that can be used for various themes and you can tell by Diane's enthusiasm that she loves what she does. Thank you Diane for make a special day even more delightful with your professionalism and great service.

    I recently worked with Diane for my Daughter's wedding. She was very professional, answered all my emails promptly and carried out my request to perfection. I felt so relaxed knowing Diane would bring our vision to reality. I also had her do floral arrangements for a Bridal Shower which looked exactly like the picture I showed her. Her shop in Simsbury is beautiful and very inspirational. I would recommend Lady Slipper Events in Simsbury, Ct.

    Diane and her staff were absolutely amazing! I had a vision that Lady Slipper helped perfect and execute the day of my wedding so I was able to be stress free on my big day. Diane also made two custom signs for us that were a big hit. Our wedding ceremony and reception both took place in our backyard. The ceremony in the pathed woods and the reception in a large tent. Diane and her staff setup the decor for both. It was perfect. Between there reasonably prized and unique rentals and great design concepts Lady Slipper was everything I hoped for. I would recommend these lady's for any event!

    Diane and her daughter were so kind and helpful. I went to Lady Slipper searching for an affordable, yet still beautiful headpiece. Diane was so flexible as I chose one but then changed my mind! She helped me search for a different headpiece to exchange with the first one. Diane was patient and sweet. The headpiece that I wound up getting was so on target and matched my dress perfectly. It now hangs in my wedding shadowbox! Lady Slipper has so many unique and hand made items. Everyone who is getting married in CT HAS to check them out.

    Diane is amazing. She designed and produced my wedding programs, menus, place cards, escort cards, table numbers and signage. Her design style is absolutely stunning. I gave her ideas of what I liked then she presented me with a few designs. The only down side was having to choose only one I liked most because I loved them all. I also rented wine barrels, vintage picture frames, galvanized milk jugs, and mason jars from her for décor. When I first spoke with her she didn’t have the 2 wine barrels that I desperately wanted to display in front of the reception hall with flowers. She went out of her way to find them! She has such a large variety of rental pieces and they are all SO unique. The décor added such a romantic feel to the whole reception. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the bill as her prices are incredibly reasonable. Diane as a person is such a pleasure to work with. She was so happy all the time and extremely easy to get along with. I honestly can not say enough good things about her services.

    I can't say enough about Diane and Lady Slipper Events. She exceeded all expectations and designed my dream wedding for an affordable price. I had a lot of ideas and details I wanted to incorporate into our reception but didn't know where to start. Diane made brought all my ideas to life and actually improved upon them. There was no idea or request Diane couldn't accommodate and she made the entire process very easy. She was a pleasure to work with and even came to my home to meet with me and my mom several times. I have recommended her to all the local brides I know and hope to work with her again for future events!

    Diane of Lady Slipper Affairs and Events is a gem!

    She was truly interested in the vision I had for my wedding, and enthusiastically provided creative ideas and advice. When she couldn't procure rustic table numbers I had seen in a catalog for an affordable price, she went out and made them from barn boards, sending me pictures as she worked, making sure they were exactly what I wanted. She also salvaged an old door and created a unique display for my wedding escort cards, again making sure I was 100% satisfied with what she was making while she was making it.

    Her prices are insanely fair. She saved me literally hundreds of dollars by renting these custom made items to me. That's just the kind of surprise every budget-conscious bride loves.

    Diane is responsive, flexible, and extremely accommodating. You can easily tell that she LOVES what she does. I cannot say enough about her.

    If you need help visualizing, or creating a theme or image from scratch, Diane is your woman. Save yourself from hours of research and shopping and coming up empty, and call Lady Slipper Affairs & Events!

    Diane was a saving grace for my wedding!! She provided gorgeous wooden chalkboard table numbers, as well as burlap runners for each table. The amount of compliments I recieved from guests on the table settings was overwhelming. Her professionalism and attention to details is remarkable and I would recommend her to anyone! The concept of renting items that you are only going to use once is genius! Saved me so much money!

    Diane's vision for our room was fantastic. She took my thoughts and turned them into a beautiful design which tied all the colors and elements I wanted together. The organization and knowledge that she would set up the room and make sure it was perfect was priceless. We will definitely be using Lady Slipper events to style and set up parties in the future.

    From the minute I met Diane, I knew I was working with someone who was competent, talented and experienced. Ideas just flow out from her but every idea is presented as "If you think you'd like........., I could......, but it is totally up to you." OR, "Do you think your daughter would like......." This meant she was willing to do whatever WE wanted and was totally flexible.

    Nothing was too much or too little for her and her team to do; from helping with the concept, to creating every decorative item, to setup and breakdown, she was there if we wanted it and kept us informed all along the way regarding cost and where we stood with the budget - Diane is very careful to watch out for the best buy and she only charges you her cost.

    Thank you so much, Diane - the comments from our guests were just what we wanted to hear - "Everything was absolutely beautiful, the little details were amazing and nothing was overdone - just lovely."

    My experience with Diane at Lady Slipper Events was amazing. My husband and I went in to meet with her only a few weeks before the wedding to rent quite a bit of decor for our rehearsal dinner and reception. We fell in love with almost everything in her inventory and even asked her to create programs, custom signs, and escort/place cards. Her level of professionalism and genuine interest in making our special day perfect was so appreciated. We received so many compliments on all of the unique decor and our day wouldn't have been the same without some of her personal touches.
    Many thanks,
    Emily & Brian T.
