Reviews of Garden Rose Events & Design (Event Planner)

Morgan Brown

Isabelle and her team were a godsend for our May 26, 2018 wedding in Richmond, Virginia. Throughout the approximately 1.5 year planning process, Isabelle was always available to answer questions and contact vendors. During the weeks leading up to and the day of our wedding my anticipated stress levels were greatly reduced and I was able to focus on enjoying the day. Isabelle did an amazing job and I would recommend her services 100%.

Isabelle & Bethany made planning my wedding so easy! As a planner myself, details are important to me and they were able to listen to all my requests and execute you them perfectly on the day-of!

Isabelle was so easy to work with through the whole process and was very helpful in finding vendors that fit out budget!

Lindsay Strom

This team is amazing! There is no way I would have been able to enjoy my day without their help! Isabelle asked us about things I never would have thought to plan for otherwise. The Garden Rose team set up everything, answered everyone's questions so I didn't have to, and solved any problems before my husband and I ever knew about them. I was able to be completely stress free because I knew Isabelle and the Garden Rose Team were handling it. Not only are they professional and extremely good at what they do, they are fun people to work with and be around! Highly recommend!

My husband and I LOVED working with both Isabelle and Joleen. They were there for me when I needed them, worked very well with my family and bridal party, and helped to connect all the dots between all of our vendors. I felt extremely worry free the day of the wedding because I knew their team had it covered in the background. I would definitely recommend them to any future brides or grooms.

Isabelle and her team were great to work with and made sure that everything at our wedding ran smoothly. I can't imagine pulling off the wedding without her.

Isabelle and the Garden Rose team were so great to work with!! They were super organized and helped us with staying organized and making decisions (and there are a lot of decisions to make!). Isabelle was great at offering suggestions based on lots of experience and geared towards making our wedding exactly what we wanted to be. It was so great to be able to hand things off and just enjoy and be present for the wedding day! Highly recommend Garden Rose for your wedding!

Because of Garden Rose Events, my wedding day was a spectacular success. Amid the unforeseen circumstances that always show up, Isabelle and her staff were there to ensure everything went perfectly. We are from Utah, so we needed a competent and attentive wedding planner, that's definitely what we received from Isabelle. I highly recommend her for your wedding (or second or third...) Thank you Isabelle!

Isabelle and her assistant went above & beyond on my wedding day! We had Day of coordination services, but weeks before the wedding Isabelle told me to let her know if I needed any ideas/help. She is super friendly, helpful, and just a genuine person! And she is GREAT at what she does. At our rehearsal, she took control of keeping everyone in line and where they were supposed to be. The night before the wedding she even ran to Walmart real quick for us to grab some extra table linens we realized we needed! The entire day of she took care of everything, I didn't need to worry at ALL that my vision was coming to light, and when I finally saw the place I was so happy with the end result!! She even did my floral arrangements for me and created greenery garlands on her own. Overall I was 100% satisfied with her services and would DEFINITELY recommended her to any bride!

Garden Rose is so professional with every step in their process. Their team is amazing, and right on que with everything. I used them as a day of coordinator and I simply could not have had my wedding without them. Their team member Bethany is wonderful. She kept the rehearsal quick and efficient, I didn't have to lift a finger on my wedding day, she handled everything and I couldn't be more thankful. From setting up, to adding special decor touches, to cleaning up and packing the cars at the end of the night, this team is worth every penny and more. Thank you for all you did to make our wedding amazing Garden Rose!

Hiring Isabelle made our wedding planning a breeze! I was planning my blacksburg-area wedding from Washington, DC, and I knew I needed a local wedding planner. After 5 skype interviews I hired Isabelle & the Garden Rose team because of their excellent taste and passion for planning beautiful events. Isabelle kept my planning on track, and always eased my mind about what needed to get done and when. Isabelle adeptly handled our vendor relationships throughout the planning process, and expertly coordinated our big day. The Rose with Garden rose wedding show her team hosts was a great opportunity to meet vendors, and I booked my hair and makeup team after meeting them at Isabelle's event. Isabelle also always gave sound vendor recommendations, and we ended up with a great team servicing our wedding. She has good knowledge of the roanoke/blacksburg wedding market, and really made planning the wedding from a distance easy. She was willing to work with our travel schedule and often met with us on weekends, or scheduled late evening calls to accommodate our work schedules. Our wedding day was absolutely stress-free. Isabelle and her team handled every detail, from directing vendors to a hard to find, rural location, to keeping the wedding running on time, to ensuring that every guest was having a great time. Our wedding was the perfect day, and we could not have pulled it off without Isabelle and her team! My first recommendation to every engaged couple I meet is to hire a wedding planner -- and if you are getting married in southwest VA Isabelle should be your top choice!

YOU GUYS! - Isabelle and her team were one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process. I have no idea how we would have done any of this without them! I was so SO overwhelmed in the beginning, but Isabelle had all these helpful tips and tricks, and suggestions on vendors within our budget. She helped my indecisive-self choose literally everything I struggled with! It was really nice to have an experienced planner guide us through this rather stressful process. Not to mention, we got married on 9/15/18 - right when hurricane Florence was doing her thing up the East coast...I was devastated after a year+ long planning endeavor, but Isabelle made it all work! It was absolutely beautiful! Better than I could have imagined, honestly. Even a hurricane couldn't stop the Garden Rose team! I really want to thank them for all the work they did in the year leading up to and on our actual wedding day - we appreciate you all more than we could ever express. If you're thinking about hiring Garden Rose, absolutely 100% go for it. You won't be disappointed!
