“From the very first moment Billy and I got onto our consultation video, I knew without a shadow of a doubt that she was “the one.” There was an instant sense of comfort, confidence, and genuine care that made the decision so easy. Choosing Billy as my wedding planner was hands-down one of the best decisions I made throughout the entire wedding process. Her communication was truly unmatched — seamless, clear, and incredibly prompt. She always responded quickly, no matter how small or big my questions were. From walking me through marriage license details to offering amazing recommendations for our wedding reception catering, she had an answer for everything. In my opinion, what sets Billy apart is how personal and heartfelt she is. She’d check in just to say how excited she was, share in the joy of love, and remind me that this was supposed to be a happy meaningful time. If something was forgotten, then “it wasn’t meant to be part of your day.” Those little check-ins meant more than she will probably ever know. Planning a wedding 1,000 miles away definitely came with its moments, including a few mini meltdowns, but she handled everything to absolute perfection. Billy took the stress off my shoulders completely and executed every detail flawlessly, even when I was spiraling. I never once felt like I was bothering her or being “too much.” On the day of my wedding, she was nothing short of amazing. She kept me updated, calm, and reassured throughout the entire day. Even right before walking down the aisle, when my nerves were at their peak, she grounded me, soothed my anxiety, and made sure I was present and peaceful in the moment. She didn’t just plan my wedding — she carried the weight of it with care, love, and professionalism. If you are even considering working with her, DO IT! You will gain not only an exceptional wedding planner but someone who truly celebrates love right alongside you.”

“Working with Avenue Design Studio was such a pleasure! While florals were important to me, I didn’t feel the need to be heavily involved, and their team made the process so easy. They truly listened to my vision, allowed for updates as my plans evolved, and then took care of everything from there. They were incredibly helpful in working within my budget, creatively repurposing ceremony florals for the reception tables, which made the whole evening feel cohesive and elegant. I appreciated their attention to detail, like including flowers I love (amaranthus) and avoiding ones I don’t (baby’s breath). Their ability to travel and stay all day to assist with setup was such a bonus. Highly recommend Avenue Design Studio!”

At Avenue Design Studio, we began as a floral business, but quickly realized we could offer so much more to our clients. Over our 10+ years of working with couples on those special lifetime moments, we found ourselves stepping in to assist our brides and event clients with planning, vendor coordination, and overall event management. This inspired us to shift our focus and create Avenue Design Studio, a full-service event planning and design company. Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need assistance with specific aspects, we provide multiple packages and a la carte options to fit your needs. You dream it, we create it.

“From start to finish working with Avenue Design Studio was a fantastic experience! I had an initial call with Chad and based on that I knew they were professionals who could bring my vision to life through floral design and day of coordination. Then they continued to provide clear and open communication throughout the planning process and were able to make suggestions as needed to advance my vision. The week of the wedding I was in contact with Morgan who would be our official day of coordinator. Morgan ended up saving the day when our bartender cancelled on us last minute; she stepped in and bartended on top of coordinating. Then she was able to work with me to donate our flowers to a women’s shelter; a cause that hits close to home for me. I cannot recommend Avenue Design Studio enough!!”

Just Think Cake is a family owned business started by my mom back in 2011. JTC was passed down to my husband and I in 2019, when we lost my mom. We have spent everyday since assuring that we are sending out amazing work to keep her dream alive. We pride ourselves on attention to detail and finding the balance in beautiful cakes that are also delicious.

“Kristin and the staff at Just Think Cake are wonderful to work with. Ordering was easy and arrived just as expected. The cake was beautiful! I received many compliments on how delicious it was. A few weeks before the wedding u asked to add on a cookie order and they did so with a customized stamp that was gorgeous! Thank you!”

That spark led to Floral Tree Affairs—a natural extension of our passion for beauty, connection, and celebration. From weddings to special events, we bring creativity, dedication, and decades of experience to every occasion. Let us help you craft unforgettable moments, backed by a family legacy of excellence.
