  SO GOOD! The draping was everything.

  Out of all the things we did for our wedding, the draping done by Unique Design & Events is for sure in the top 3 design choices we made for our big day! The colorful draping was such a 'wow' statement and completely transformed our venue.
  
  When I first walked in to the venue, my jaw literally dropped. If you are looking for a way to make the most impact possible with your wedding budget, I HIGHLY recommend draping from Unique Design & Events!

  We loved UDE!

  We had UDE for our decor and florals for our Indian wedding, and Yara with UDE was really wonderful. She was such a pleasure to work with and is well versed in wedding design and decor. UDE really made our wedding come to life and look the way we wanted! To begin with, they graciously moved wedding dates with us two times due to the pandemic. Yara met with us in person and over Zoom to help us design a couple different features for our Indian wedding including the traditional mandap and phoolon ki chadaar. She was very responsive and sent me sketches and photos of everything beforehand, and when we had to make a change to the mandap design about a month before the wedding, she worked quickly to do so. She also took the time to really understand what I wanted for everything in terms of colors and color schemes for the florals and my bridal bouquet, and even with our wedding being rescheduled from a Spring to a Fall wedding she got the florals to be exactly what we wanted. Everything we had set up on the day of the wedding was truly stunning and exactly what we wanted and imagined including the mandap, ceiling drapes, bridal canopy, and table settings. Everything was set up in a very timely fashion on the day of. I also want to mention that Yara was very sweet and easy to talk to, I loved UDE and I 100% recommend working with them for your Indian wedding!

  Best draping vendor!

  Unique Designs is the only company to trust with your draping needs. The ceremony was the most stunning part of our wedding and it wouldn’t have been possible without the draping! I loved our planning meeting in their office and creating the perfect color for our ceremony draping. The drapes were flawless and really created my vision of that space. Their entire team is so helpful and kind. Yara and Gabe are a husband and wife team that own the company and they are just some of the nicest humans on the face of the earth. Monica is one of their lead designers and she really knows how to take care of her clients. They have the biggest selection of draping so any color combination is possible. I would never think of going anywhere else!

  So easy to work with

  Unique Design & Events was very easy to work with and the drape for our ceremony was beautiful. They often work with our venue but usually leave up the drape during the reception. We wanted the drape to come down right after the ceremony and they said that would be no problem. Day-of everything went and looked as planned. They were great!

  Most beautiful Mandap ever!

  Yara and her team went above and beyond to design my most beautiful mandap for our wedding. Our guests are still raving about it! Thank you, UDE!

  Yara and her experienced team are truly visionaries. We trusted them with our wedding decor and do not regret it! with UDE’s beautiful inventory, our wedding was simply gorgeous. With just a few details from me, Yara knew exactly what I wanted and her team was amazing. They only had a few hours to turn over our wedding decor to our reception decor and they did it perfectly. Loads of people complimented our beautiful decor and draping. Further, Yara is extremely nice, responsive, creative, and easy to work with. I highly recommend UDE for anyone looking for wedding decor.

  Yara was one of my absolute favorite vendors. Wedding planning can be extremely stressful and she always made me feel at ease. My family was also very involved in the wedding planning process and she made time out of her busy schedule to meet with us multiple times. She was extremely professional and personable and executed my large Indian wedding with complete finesse. She also was sensitive to my budget and worked with me to make sure my decor looked elegant. I cannot say enough about how wonderful Yara is to work with- she definitely made my event stress-free and more than anything I could have possibly imagined!! I would HIGHLY recommend her.

  I felt a relief when working with Yara, I knew she understood exactly what I wanted and that was the biggest relief ever. With all things a bride has to worry about planning her wedding, decor and lighting was off my list because I knew Yara was going to deliver my vision. The venue looked great with way Yara brought my vision to life and on top of that she threw in some sweet surprises that brought a smile to my face as I walked threw the doors into the venue. All I want to tell you brides-to-be is if you work with Yara you can rest assured that your wedding day will look as beautiful as the bride! :)
  Thanks for making my wedding day gorgeous!! ~Amrin~

  Yara was an absolute pleasure to work with. I had to make several changes to my contract during the course of planning and she stayed patient and worked with me. I would definitely recommend her. She has several hard to find colors and a very competitive rate and on top of that she gave us a discount for confirming before her deadline.

  This was a simple and painless process. They had what we needed and it arrived early so our event planner wasn't rushed. After the wedding they picked everything up!

  I wanted to have something different in the barn where our reception was held, and my planner recommended Unique Designs and Events. I saw a few pictures of the sheer drapery and knew it would look stunning. There was a mishap with the color the day before, but they took care of it quickly! We love how it turned out – the drapery really added a unique elegance to the space.

  Yara is completely unprofessional as a business owner. The first time my fiance visited the store, the employee failed to send an invoice to my fiance after their meeting. My fiance was forced to call a month later to retrieve it. Then, my fiance spoke directly with Yara and set up an appointment to meet with her on a Saturday morning. We showed up for our scheduled appointment and no one was there. In fact, the store was not even open at all. We waited 45 mintues and tried calling the store several times. No one ever showed up for our scheduled appointment, so we left in disgust. We had drove 45 mintues out to their location only to have wasted our time and gas. Having left a phone message, we assumed Yara would call us back that day to explain. However, she never did call us. She made no attempt to contact us to let us know that no one would be there for our appointment. She did not even have the decency to call us to apologize afterwards. Instead, she merely sent an e-mail days later explaining that she neglected our appointment to satisfy another customer. After receiving her e-mail explaining why she neglected our appointment, we forwarded her e-mail to our wedding venue and wedding planner. They both stated that is was unacceptable and that they would no longer recommend Unique Design & Events to any of their clients.
