Frequently Asked Questions
Decorations set the tone, create a mood, make a reception engaging, fun, and welcoming for both you and your guests. Imagine your home without décor or personal touches...without colour, texture, or lighting. Would it feel flat and uninspired? The same is true for any event. Thoughtful decorations spark excitement and enhance the overall experience. Decorations are the backdrop to those magical moments and lifelong memories you are creating!
Do you remember your very first day on a job? How long did it take for you to master your skills?
At Unforgettable Weddings we pride ourselves on quality, efficiency and accuracy. Our designers know sizing, complimentary colour combinations, industry regulations, venue expectations, the in’s and out’s, the do’s and don’ts to consider and mistakes to avoid - that others may not initially think of. We have decorated over 1000+ events to date and are always prepared with tips, tricks, and quick thinking solutions that come with 18+ years experience.
Consider granting yourself peace of mind, and delegate. Hire the right help - you will be thankful you did!
You may be surprised. Hiring a decorator may actually SAVE you money when it comes to decor. Purchasing decorations and DIY-ing may seem cost effective in the beginning but can quickly add up and cost more than what a decorator would charge.
When researching be certain you are comparing like items, quantity and quality. Include fees such as duty, shipping or delivery and your own gas.... don’t forget to account for cleaning, set up or take down costs that may be associated at a later time. Plus, what is your time worth? Sometimes trying to save money with separate purchases, is more expensive than one. A decorator may be more affordable than you think, and offer expert benefits.
At Unforgettable Weddings we welcome all inquiries and are happy to provide a no-obligation price quote.
There is a difference between a Decorator and a Planner.
As decorators and venue stylists, our role focuses on the visual and design elements of your event. This can include aesthetic planning, layout design, delivery, professional setup, styling, and post-event teardown - on top of providing decor. We do not attend or manage the event itself; instead, we return afterward to collect our décor.
If you are looking for someone to be present throughout the event to manage timelines, coordinate vendors, and oversee logistics, you may wish to hire an event planner or coordinator - which is also a separate role from a venue coordinator.
We work seamlessly alongside planners, coordinators... and we’re always happy to share our top recommendations.
Yes and No.
When you choose one of our decorating packages, we’re happy to incorporate select personal items to help make your event feel truly unique. This can include sentimental pieces, handmade items, family photos, treasure finds, custom centrepieces, or small giveaways you provide. We work closely with you to blend these details into the overall design.
That said, our team may not be able to set up items that are time-sensitive, pose a liability, fall under another vendor’s scope, or for food-safety reasons.
If you’ve ordered decorations from our SIGNATURE menu only, without a reception package, the quoted price is for the listed items & services only. Overall event design aspects, coordination, and other final touches remain in your hands.
