Lisa Sent on 12/25/2022Intellectual Listener, Uniquely Creative, & Artistically Gifted
We contracted Malleret Designs (Marcela Bogado) to assist us in transforming a venue that needed transformation. I was the project manager for our wedding, and I was very aware that I had to hire extremely competent and talented people to help me as I was planning this wedding from another city (Houston) while the wedding was in Austin, TX. My wife and I are an older couple (mid 50’s) that reconnected after 35 years since High School. As an older couple we have acquired a refined pallet through life experiences from wine, art, travel, and just experiencing the world. We opted for a very a modest venue so to not alienate our friends from 35 years past and to help make all our guests comfortable, yet we were having Justin Furstenfeld (Blue October) play for us and invited guests that would appreciate the refinement that a firm such as Malleret Designs could offer.. This venue needed lots of help to transform its modest décor to serene and uniquely beautiful backdrop for our special day. It required creativity and a strong network. Marcela Bogado was the right and only choice for us!
I write this review 6 months having a clear mind to look back at our special day. Marcela has such a talent for listening and understanding what we wanted. I remember the day she had the “aha” moment in understanding our energy and our pallet. She took it from there and hit the design from the beginning! We met to finally select materials to complete the picture and she provided excellent suppliers! We made very few modifications to her artistic approach to our design. Her design talent was clear and the only part left was the actual implementation.
Marcela and team were on site early and clearly communicated with us and the venue. The execution was flawless as I was there to do a final walk through. It took my breathe away as her vision came to a reality. As an experienced project manager, I could not have asked for a better design partner with such listening skills, creative talent, and focused execution to fully create a masterpiece. I am not easy to please, yet my expectations were over-exceeded. 6 months later and I feel stronger about Malleret Designs than that actual busy day. I cannot express my gratitude enough for all the RESULTS! I am in awe of Marcela’s work and if you want a strong partner to help with your special day, I strongly suggest you don’t risk it and simply put your trust in Marcela Bogado and Malleret Designs.

Vanessa Sent on 10/22/2024A planner you can trust
As a photographer, I've had the pleasure of working with so many amazing wedding planners, and Malleret Designs is one of them. The reception setup was a photographer’s dream—every corner of the room was styled impeccably, from the stunning floral arrangements to the meticulously placed décor. If you're looking for a planner who not only makes your day look stunning but also makes sure it's easy to photograph, you can for sure trust Malleret Designs. -

Jordan Sent on 05/29/2022Such a talented florist!
Marcela blew my vision out of the water! We reviewed inspiration images, my favorite flowers and colors and she ran with it. I asked for a lot of color and wasn't entirely sure how it would all look together, but Marcela made it all look so beautiful. She is very talented and knows what she is doing. I appreciated Marcela's attention to detail and she was overly communicative with me, to ensure everything was perfect. I highly recommend using Malleret Designs for any of your wedding floral needs! -

Fantastic professional!
Marcela is absolutely wonderful! She created an elegant and classy atmosphere for a beautiful intimate COVID wedding. My niece and her family were thrilled with how everything turned out for her dreamy day and were so thankful for Marcela’s expertise. She is easy to work with, professional and helps brides and their families enjoy their day without having to worry about the details! Love her! -

Ayesha Sent on 11/27/2021Everything you need
Marcela works so hard for you. From the initial consultation, she already had a full proposal with pictures to help us envision her interpretations of our wedding dreams. She is kind and open to help with whatever you need. She is firm and gets the job done efficiently. She's everything we needed for our day to come together. I almost cried while watching her design come to life on the wedding day. The flowers she used were immaculate (our guests took them home too!). Even with the flower shortage and my last minute request, she pulled together something that far exceeded my expectations. It was elegant, romantic, soft, and fluffy, just as I'd described to her all those months ago. Our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful and high-quality our wedding was. She is heaven-sent. I couldn't recommend her more if I tried. -

We just wanted to extend the biggest heartfelt thank you for providing such gorgeous flowers for our special day! Considering the changes in our wedding plans this pandemic forced us to face, it all turned out perfect! You went above and beyond with only a week’s notice, and we are forever grateful! Blessings for all that you do! ❤️🙏🏼

Ashley Sent on 10/09/2019Beautiful florals!
Marcela makes flowers easy! I spoke with many florists before my big day and Marcela's budget and vision was very clear and very beautiful. She had great communication and was able to work within my budget. Thanks Marcela! -

Patricia Sent on 09/08/2019Beautiful flowers and great service
Working with Marcela from Malleret Designs was so easy and the result was stunning. I gave her a couple of pictures of floral arrangements that I liked and she was able to create beautiful pieces for our wedding. Her communication was timely and clear, and she was willing to make changes to fit our needs and budget without compromising quality or the final result. If you want to work with someone who will listen, give you recommendations and deliver beautiful flower arrangements for your wedding, please consider Malleret Designs. -

Sarah Sent on 08/19/2019Would HIGHLY Recommend
I could not speak more highly of Malleret Designs! Marcela made time to understand my vision, they worked with me to make it perfect and it came out more beautiful than I could have ever thought possible. Marcela even made my mother a beautiful design to take home since my wedding was on her birthday (and Marcela's birthday as well!) Thank you for making my wedding so special and beautiful, Malleret Designs! -

One of the most beautiful parts of the wedding.
The flower design by Malleret Designs was truly one of the most beautiful parts of my daughter’s wedding. Marcela spent a lot of time with my daughter to understand her vision. Marcela’s strength is taking that vision and not only making it a reality but superseding expectations. Her floral design was exquisite and unique and abundant. The bridal/family table was the focal point of the reception. It featured gorgeous hanging florals that hung above the table of 14 people. It was truly breath taking. I highly recommend Marcela and Malleret design for florals that will surpass your every expectation.

Beautiful arrangements & excellent service!
Malleret Designs did an amazing job with the flowers provided at our event! Marcela arrived to our venue at the time requested and immediately began setting out all of the arrangements in their specified places without any help needed. The arrangements themselves were absolutely beautiful and were a perfect addition to our event. We will definitely use their services for our next gathering! -

Vanesa Sent on 12/01/2018Breathtakingly beautiful, lush and exquisite wedding flowers.
Malleret Designs completely exceeded my expectations. From the very beginning Marcela understood my creative vision. I wanted romantic/moody fall tones that also matched the elegance of our wedding venue. I had dreamt of my wedding flowers since I was a little girl and am happy to say that Malleret Designs made my dreams come true!
We also really appreciated her professional and attention to detail. She was thankfully able to accommodate last minute requests and changes too. Couldn’t have been any happier! -

Malleret is the best florist in Austin
Marcela did a wonderful job with the flowers for my daughter's wedding. It was far beyond what I expected. Not only that but, Marcela guided us and was very flexible and patient despite all the changes that we constantly made. Marcela is the best florist in Austin and I would highly recommend her to anyone. -

Victoria Sent on 06/16/2018I started working with Malleret Designs 6 months before our May wedding, when we decided we wanted an modern, yet romantic wedding. From the very first meeting, Marcela listened what was it we were looking for and guided us to decide our style. She showed us many options and worked with us until we found exactly what wanted.
Working with two brides with different styles, and 12 total bridesmaids, has not been easy. She pretty much planned two weddings in one. The results were beyond what we expected. Being a destination wedding for Marcela, she took the time to be in contact with us several times as the wedding approached. We made changes, over the phone while using personalized galleries to define our decoration. Marcela, and the Malleret Designs team work very hard to ensure our day was perfect.
The day of our wedding, weather did not cooperate, and we had last minute change of venues to our back up space. Imagine the stress of having to change everything the day of! Marcela was the vendor that handled the situation with complete control. She rearranged things, moved decoration, used her knowledge and experience, and the result was amazing.
Thankfully, we were still able to have the ceremony in the rooftop, I was extremely happy the way our modern arch arrangement looked (see pictures. I am 100% confident our reception would not have been the same without Marcela's ideas, adaptability to work on a new space last minute, and perfect sense of style. We are forever grateful for everything she's done for us.
As an LGBT couple, we felt extremely comfortable knowing Marcela had experience working with similar couples in the past. During the whole process, we felt Marcela took the time to get to know us personally, and as couple. We would recommend working with her without hesitation. -

Anne Sent on 02/27/2018We recently got married in the Caribbean and wanted to host a celebration afterwards back home for family & friends. I really get into the details when planning any party and was a bit neurotic about the florals for this one after a disappointing experience with my wedding bouquet. Thankfully, I found Marcela at Malleret Designs. She is a dream come true! She listened to my ideas and really understood what I was looking for. Her proposal was extremely detailed and much like a Pinterest board including pictures of the actual flowers to be used in the designs. I knew I was in good hands and was hopeful she could bring my vision to life. She NAILED it! The florals for our party were exactly what I’d hoped for – beautiful, elegant, timeless. The perfect finishing touch. Meeting her on the day of was also a treat. Attentive and lovely herself. I am excited to have found my go-to event person for all things floral and cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Marcela!! ♥

I cannot say enough positive things about Marcela and her team! She was very helpful, clear and responsive in the preparation process leading up to our wedding. We loved her proactiveness and she has great taste to boot! On our wedding day, she managed all logistics flawlessly and showed great maturity in her delivery. If you want great floral support for your event, look no further than Marcela's team at Malleret!
