A Letter From The Founder

Prospective Clients,

I started out with a pearl-ended pin, a pen, and a napkin. Many referrals later, I realized this work is more than an outlet for my creativity. This is my life’s passion.

A few years ago, a client said to me, “Anelia, you have inspired so much hope in me regarding this wedding!” This sort of feedback brings so much joy, and truly feeds my creativity. It also illuminates the very impact I hope to make as an event designer.

I have worked with such a breadth of culture, budgets, and traditions, and I have come away with nuanced perspectives and strong intuition. I think it really shows that this is what I always wanted to do.

As a designer, I’m praised for my vision of aesthetic beauty, for my cultural-competence, and my versatility. I work with grace under pressure, have reaped the benefits of strong industry connections, and am committed to treating you like family.

Truly,

Anelia Andonova

“Anelia was absolutely wonderful to work with! We had an Indian Hindu Wedding ceremony that she decorated perfectly. From the beginning, she was so enthusiastic and creative and made sure we got everything we wanted. She is very flexible and easy to communicate with. She went out of her way on multiple occasions to meet up and review all the details to ensure we were completely satisfied. She is very professional and executed our vision even more beautifully than we imagined. I could not have been happier to work with her and her team and I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

Maryam 06/08/17 Wedding

“Anelia did the decor for my wedding on 5-27-16 at the Oakbrook Hilton. She did an incredible job. What I liked most about working with her was how attentive she was to every little detail. She really makes sure that you get the look that you want. I also appreciated her recommendations. She also makes sure to work within your budget and will advise you as to what she thinks you should adjust in order to fit your vision to your budget. The final setting was beautiful and elegant, with orchids adorning the room just the way I had wanted. The centerpieces complemented the rest of the room setting so well.”
