However, Marie Danielle still approaches planning all her events through a scientific lens, be it expertly managing precisely when her flowers will bloom- down to the minute, or masterfully calculating the square footage per guest count to maximize the event guest experience. Her impressive scientific background has perfectly complimented all aspects of her wedding, event and floral design work.

Marie Danielle always puts her clients at the center of all she does, ensuring harmonious, luxurious events and experiences down to the last detail. Marie Danielle is available for bookings as a speaker and for TV appearances. Contact us at 800-757-0549 to schedule your appointment or to book Marie Danielle for her industry expertise.

FLORAL & EVENT DESIGN PROCESS

The best Event Designers can intuitively capture their clients' vision and wishes or inspire them with visuals such as color cards, fabric swatches, and other design elements that will serve as the basis for the décor, etc.  The best Designers find ways to incorporate your vision into music & entertainment, culinary, lighting, flowers & decor, the ambiance and into the overall "feel" of your event, thereby elevating your event to an experience, leaving a lasting impression on you and your guests.  Whether a private social event, a corporate function, gala, product launch, marketing project, or a styleshoot, we will custom design and brand your event and experience.

As Event Designers, we make the difference between just having flowers on your tabletop and having an immersive floral environment, incorporating plants, fine linens and china, beautiful chargers, props, mirror tables, unique chairs, couture dance floors, lounge furniture, custom bars and other beautiful rentals that will transform your event space and transport you into another world, if just for a day!  At À Votre Service Events®, we understand how to incorporate your dreams into the landscape.  We are obsessed with the details and the flowers and botanicals are no exceptions.

Ideally, we would handle your floral design in conjunction with the event planning to ensure a well-rounded, comprehensive plan and results .  However, should you prefer, we are delighted to provide a sigular service- wedding & event planning and or floral design. 

Call us today at 800-757-0549 or complete the inquiry form on our Contact page to learn more about our services.

KIND WORDS

01

Marie Danielle's work is exquisite! Her love of her business is apparent in everything she touches.

She worked with my daughter on her wedding décor and left no stone unturned. Marie Danielle created a reception mock-up to show us what the table designs would look like. Also, allowing us to tweak the original vision. She has an unbelievable talent in creating a gorgeous event. She will go to the end of the earth to make your wedding magical. My daughter and I are so happy we found A Votre Service.

Johnny and I were very impressed with your floral design and venue set-up for our ceremony and reception.  I am still amazed how you completely transitioned Pierre’s and made it a moment in time that no one will ever forget.

It was a pleasure working with you and I look forward to working with you in the future.

Tracy and Johnny

We absolutely loved, loved, loved working with Marie Danielle!

She was in tune with what we wanted and always very helpful with pertinent suggestions and advice. She was flexible and attentive to our cultural preferences. I would definitely recommend her happily to my friends and family...or anyone else I know who needs a wedding planner or day of event coordinator who can make all the difference.

Outstanding! We Couldn't Have Had A Better Experience.

Marie Danielle was amazing. Initially we were unsure about the added expense of a day-of coordinator, but in the end it was the best purchase we made. She took care of all the details and coordinated our many many vendors. Most important, my mom was able to enjoy our wedding day instead of worrying about all of the things Marie Danielle took care of. I absolutely recommend A Votre Service Events. We couldn't have had a better experience.

One Of A Kind! Understanding The Science of Wedding Floral Design...

Marie Danielle and I instantly clicked! Her science background and passion made her a unique match to us. Every one of my requests were listened to and the result was breathtaking. I had people hunting me down to see my bouquet up close. My bouquet was unlike any thing she has done before - very different style and she owned it! I loved that she put hot peppers in (she said it was for my spicy personality). Things like that make memories and make these things special. The attentiveness and vision were one of a kind. I wish I could live in her walk with her flowers - she only using hardy and vibrant flowers - nothing cheap or dull! My bouquet was perfect when I found it the next morning where it stayed tucked in the car with NO water in the heat. If that doesn't prove quality, I don't know what will!

Marie Danielle Goes Above & Beyond For Her Clients...

Marie Danielle was amazing I had worked with her for two years planning my wedding. She helped us with any and everything we needed help with for our wedding, listened to what we wanted and then made it happen. She is an amazing woman who goes above and beyond for her clients, should I ever need a planner again, she is for sure the only person I would call. She was there long before I arrived and when I left she was still there, by the end it was like she was part of the family -- a truly amazing wonderful woman with an amazing and wonderful gift at making people's visions come to life.

...and if we did not verbalize it enough, we want you to know that we are so very grateful for your work. You were professional and, most of all, reliable. You delivered at every step of the way. I know that working with (or against) our schedules had to be pretty challenging. We definitely needed someone whom we could trust.  We trusted that you would pick beautiful flowers and make elegant centerpieces. You blew us away! You made our day absolutely gorgeous.  You definitely understood our taste and our desire to keep things simple, yet, classy.  Each time we talk about our wedding day, your name is always a part of the conversation.  The day was flawless!  I think you even had a hand in assuring the perfect weather. To think, I met you randomly five years ago as I overheard a conversation that you were having with someone else.  After we spoke, that day I went home and said, "When I get married, I'm calling Marie."  In reality, I probably lost your card three weeks after you gave it to me, but you left an indelible and remarkable impression.  And so, five years later, I can truly say that our wedding day was everything that we dreamed it would be for having met you.  Thank you for helping us to start our life together with such a memorable beginning.
