    My vision brought to life!

    I cannot begin to describe how grateful I am for Yvonne and her team in making our wedding day spectacular. From the moment I met Yvonne I knew she would create something special for our wedding and she exceeded all of my expectations. Her attention to detail is unmatched and she truly has a gift in making beautiful things. She transformed the vision I had in my head and delivered it throughout the entire planning process up until the wedding day. The florals were absolutely jaw-dropping from my bridal bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets, and groom/groomsmen boutonnieres, all of it was stunning. I will never forget how she made me feel when I walked into our reception venue to see how she completely transformed the space and brought to life exactly what I wanted and more. Yvonne truly has a special gift in making things beautiful and we cannot thank her and her team enough in making our day incredible.

    Swissotel wedding decor

    YJ Decorating was a reliable, experienced vendor to handle all the decor for our wedding at Swissotel, Chicago. They took care of florals and decor for the tables and cocktail hour and the cake, and created a lovely dance floor wrap that elevated the vibe with our live band! They are an experienced vendor that knew all the processes, had worked with the venue previously and could be relied on to take care of everything day of without any stress for the bridge and groom! Definitely would recommend for your event!

    Highly Recommend

    We absolutely loved working with Yvonne and YJ Decorating! She worked tirelessly to bring our wedding vision to life and went above and beyond in every way. From the start, she took the time to understand exactly what we wanted, spending many calls with us to make sure every detail was perfect. She sourced beautiful flowers and created stunning arrangements that matched our vision perfectly. The bridal bouquet looked exactly as we had imagined, and the bridesmaid flowers were gorgeous. She also made a lovely entryway display to welcome our guests, which set the tone for the entire celebration. When our outdoor plans changed because of rain, she was incredibly flexible and calm under pressure, allowing us to decide the morning of where to set up. She built our mandap beautifully for our first ceremony, and then completely transformed it into a breathtaking arch for our Western ceremony. The floral flip was seamless and so impressive! We’re so grateful for her creativity, professionalism, and kindness. Everything came together beautifully thanks to her and her team. Highly recommend Yvonne and YJDecorating to anyone looking for a talented and dedicated florist and decorator!

    Definitely Recommend!

    We used Yvonne for our wedding florals this past October and we couldn’t be happier! She was so friendly, responsive, and had a lot of great ideas. She looked at my Pinterest board to get an idea of what I was looking for and made suggestions to make everything look amazing and serve multiple functions from ceremony to reception. She also worked within our budget. She makes sure every detail is covered from candles, votives, ribbon color, etc. My bouquet turned out absolutely gorgeous! I would highly recommend YJ Decorating for florals and decor. Yvonne made me feel so at ease and I never had to stress over florals.
