Based in Chicago, we’ve had the privilege of working with a beautifully diverse range of cultural, ethnic, and religious weddings. Over the years, we’ve come to know the unique rhythms of Indian Baraats and Sangeets, the lively steps of Greek Kalamatianos dancing, the vibrant energy of Mexican La Hora Loca, and more Horas than we can count!

The typical investment is $150–$200 per guest for full-service floral and décor. For most weddings, this translates to a minimum investment of $5,000 (before delivery, setup, and taxes).

Yes. Here are broad guidelines:

• Floral Only – Customer Pickup: $5,000–$10,000
• Moderate Décor & Floral – Delivered, No Room Flip: $10,000–$15,000
• Full-Service Décor & Floral – With Room Flip: Starting at $15,000+

Note: Costs vary based on guest count, number of venues, floral selections, custom fabrications, and décor needs. We’ll always provide honest guidance about what is possible within your budget.

This minimum ensures we can staff, deliver, and set up without compromising quality.

• Off-site ceremonies: Typically require less décor, lowering costs.
• Ceremonies within reception spaces: Often increase budgets by 10–30%, due to additional staging and “room flips.”

Holiday weddings involve additional costs, as staff must be compensated at overtime/holiday rates as required by labor laws. While we love designing for meaningful dates, these labor requirements affect the overall investment.

Yes. We partner with trusted industry professionals and work closely with most major hotels and event venues in the Chicago metropolitan area. We are also open to collaborating with new vendors who meet our quality standards.

Staffing levels are based on the scale and complexity of your event, ensuring the right level of professional support throughout.

Our design studio is at 2819 W. Montrose, Chicago, IL 60618. We are open Tuesday–Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
