We chose Simply Elegant to provide decor for our corporate Christmas Party in December 2012 at Mercato Restaurant, and cannot say enough about how they transformed the venue. From just the initial phone call, Sharon immediately grasped the feel we wanted for the event, and provided an endless array of ideas to create the look. Sharon and her team executed every last detail as discussed, and finalized the look on time and within budget. They made our party elegant, classy, and inviting. All of our guests raved about the decor. For anyone, personal or corporate, looking for a great team to assist with their event planning, I would highly recommend Simply Elegant be the company you call for all of your event planning needs.

Rob Vidra and his team did a fabulous job for our Corporate Event! The food was delicious, the decor amazing and I didn't have to worry about a thing. It was all taken care of. We went through an extensive meeting process to ensure that no stone was left unturned. I don't know what I would have done without their expertise. Our event was a huge success, thanks to Simply Elegant.

"I like to call her the wedding fairy" I had the privilege to have Simply Elegant manage our wedding. This business is comprised of a team of extremely talented professionals that will truly treat you nothing short of a princess or a prince. Our wedding was a large wedding of 600 guests! I had a vision of a Parisian glamour themed wedding and was very worried a size this large of a wedding would quickly turn into a nightmare. Let me tell you, I was wrong! Enter the Wedding Fairy, Sharon Barwick and Simply Elegant owner, Robert Virda. Sharon is everything you would dream a wedding planner to be. She is empathetic, a great listener, an excellent problem solver (she actually foresees problems before they occur) and an extremely talented artist all in one. Her approach is so refreshing, she will not let you panic, provides creative solutions and is always there to listen to any concern you have, no matter how many you have! Sharon designed my floral including my bouquet, my bridesmaids’ bouquets, the groomsmen's boutonnieres, floral at the venue, tables decor, cake table, our wedding party table and much more. All this while providing ways to cut on cost without compromising our vision. Did I mention we had 600 guests? Sharon and Rob were there for us the entire time helping us plan and providing us with valuable insight. They also learned about our culture and how to address everyone in our family. On our big day, Rob and Sharon had become a part of the family. Rob came and congratulated us and we felt like we were in great hands. Sharon was there reminding me to enjoy every moment, look up and smile while going down the stairs and walk with grace, she helped us stick to our schedule to the minute. Really she was my angel guardian that day. Due to my outfit changes we had a tight schedule, she made sure everyone was where they needed to be at the right time and let me tell you; that is no easy task when there are this many individuals to manage! She even managed my aunt who came from overseas and only spoke French! Yes, Sharon speaks French as well 🙂 I could honestly go on and on about how amazing Rob and Sharon are as well as their talented team who always smiled when they saw us and treated us like family. If you are thinking about Simply Elegant for your wedding, don’t hesitate. It will be the best decision you made after getting married of course 🙂 Cheers! Feriel

Sharon at Simply Elegant responded to a last minute request, and came up with exactly what we needed to make the evening shine with decor. She was professional, prompt, and open to our suggestions. We'd work with her again in a heartbeat.

Peter and the staff at Simply Elegant were AMAZING to work with - the perfect combination of professional, fun and practical. We used them for our wedding at the beginning of February 2017, and were extremely pleased with the service, the quality of the food, and their decor services . Peter worked closely with us leading up to our wedding to develop a menu and set up that stayed within our budget. He also acted as the go-between with our venue and was able to provide a lot of guidance and expertise on how to best orientate the space. We also used Simply Elegant staff to operate the bar and for the event set up and take down. They took care of everything on the day of, which allowed us to simply enjoy the day with our friends and family. We had such a great time in fact, that I think they were also potentially the only "responsible adults" left standing by the end of the night 🙂 Thank you for all your hard work and for making our day so special. - Julie & Steve

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need decorators?

You can rent all of your event decorations as a DIY. Or let our professional decorators make your job easier and stress-free by shipping, setting up and taking down the décor for your event.

How much will my corporate decorations cost?

Your investment in event decorations depends on the number of tables and chairs needed to be decorated, your design taste, and the costs of labour and shipping. It is best to start with a realistic budget and then our designers can create a storyboard visual with an initial financial assessment breakdown based on what works best for you.

Do you have wedding decorations packages?

Our wedding decorations are as individual and unique as our couples in their selection on their venue choice, theme and colour scheme. Our design studio showroom gives you the chance to view a variety of looks so that you decide on where you want to invest your décor dollars.

How can I save money on wedding decorations?

You can do parts of the wedding yourself. Simply Elegant provides wedding decorations rentals of linens, chair covers, centrepieces, backdrops, etc. You can do all of the installation and take down yourself or hire our experienced decorators do it all or just the take down.

Can I provide some of the wedding decorations?

Some clients want to use vases, ceremony gates and archways, antique prams, etc. in their ceremony. Bring in your specialty wedding decorations pieces to our design studio prior to your wedding and our staff will include the décor in the whole look.

Are wedding decorations contracts necessary?

Contracts protect you and your wedding decorations providers. Read all of the fine print in every vendor contract as it is a legal document you are agreeing to for specific services they are providing plus a payment schedule. Ensure that your rentals are not taken or damaged by guests as you are responsible for their safe keeping.
