What Makes Us Different?

At Designs that Matter, building strong relationships with our clients is at the heart of everything we do. We’re not just focused on creating individual elements for your event—we’re dedicated to ensuring that every detail works together harmoniously. From the initial concept to the final execution, we guide you through each step, discussing both the creative vision and the logistics to make everything come together smoothly.

As a one-stop creative shop, we offer a full range of services to make your event cohesive from start to finish.

Ready to bring your design dreams to life?

Let’s start with a relaxed, no-pressure conversation – whether that’s in our cozy home studio in Ann Arbor or from the comfort of your couch via an online meeting. We know life gets busy, so if a quick call or some email exchanges suit you best, we’re all in!

During our chat, we’ll dive into the design elements, the overall vibe of your event, and how we can perfectly enhance your celebration. We’ll explore inspiration together from your Pinterest boards or ideas you’ve gathered to help shape the perfect design. Plus, we’ll go over any coordination needed to ensure your event flows smoothly.

To create a proposal tailored to your unique style and budget, we’ll ask for your target budget range. Don’t worry—we’re flexible and can work with various sizes and scopes. Our goal is to craft a stunning design that aligns perfectly with your vision. During our consultation, we’ll provide rough estimates and be transparent about pricing—so there are no surprises along the way!

Once you’re excited about the possibilities, we’ll lock in your date with a contract and deposit.

From there, we’ll build a fabulous design board that brings your vision to life. This board will evolve as we collaborate, ensuring every detail is perfected leading up to your big day.

Let’s make your event truly spectacular with Designs that Matter!

Love note

Yael was amazing. She really listened to what I envisioned for my wedding decor and worked with me and my budget to make a truly magical scene happen. She also made our beautiful bouquets and corsages and did all the setup and take down. Many design places I talked to had generic backdrops that they used and reused for multiple weddings but she really worked with me to make something that was custom in line with what I wanted.
