25th Anniversary Gala Celebration

 

"On behalf of the Southeastern Virginia Arts Association, I want to thank you for your generosity in assisting us during our 25th anniversary celebration.  Thanks to your touch, the ambience of the room was greatly enhanced.

 

Maizelle Brown, an artist and one of the honorees, was highly impressed with the décor.  She especially liked the symbols you positioned strategically around the room.   The lights covered by the frosted vases was a great idea in countering the drabness of the skirt covering the stage.  Your idea to add the additional tea lights" [hand-made lights embelished with artistic symbols] "to the table décor made the difference in the look of the tables.  I was very pleased with your work and would recommend you highly."

Artisan Wedding Design

"We didn’t have a theme in mind for our wedding; I just wanted a beautiful wedding at the park that my Husband proposed to me.  Janel was so creative.  She was able to capture and incorporate so many special, personal touches but still kept it natural.  She added so many special surprises like the lyrics of 'our song' on hand-made signs on road leading to the wedding site and down the aisle.  I was so lucky to have an Artist coordinate my wedding!"
