Avant Decor

I can't say enough wonderful things about working with Elizabeth at Avant Decor. She was professional, responsive, and had thoughtful ideas that added just the right touch to our event. I would refer her to friends and family in a heartbeat. Thank you for your help, Elizabeth!!

Elizabeth made an extra effort to acquire lace swags because we did not want organza and was creative with the ideas and look we wanted. Elizabeth worked with our florist to create an orb of baby's breath for the dance floor for something different that lanterns. She was very sensitive to our budget and did not try to have us buy more than was we wanted.

Had a little sticker shock at first, but found Avant to be friendly, professional, responsive and very efficient. They are very good at what they do and made a beautiful space even more lovely for my daughter's wedding. I would absolutely recommend this service to anyone wanting to add just that little extra panache to their event.

The draping we had Avant Decor drape along the ceiling totally transformed our reception hall for our wedding! It took a nice ballroom and made it even more beautiful and elegant!

Avant Decor was extremely easy to work with and took care of everything. Once I booked with Avant I didn't have to think about it again. Avant took care of everything the day of our wedding from set up to tear down and everything went extremely well. Avant is service oriented and helped me with the exact wedding decor I wanted for our big day.

Avant Decor is wonderful! They were efficient and easy to work with. It was a relief to know that they would handle set up and take down. The lights looked amazing in our venue space. Their prices were fair and they had a variety of options. I would highly recommend them!

I rented cafe lights for my wedding reception and couldn't be more pleased with the way everything turned out. The lights were strung from the second floor balconies in the atrium where I held my reception and I was blown away with how beautiful they looked - it was exactly how I had pictured it in my head! I received so many compliments from guests, saying that they felt like they were outside at an Italian cafe.

The entire rental process was incredibly seamless, prices were competitive and both Elizabeth and Melissa were great to work with! Overall, I had a great experience with Avant Decor and would highly recommend using them for your wedding (or any event).

I called Avant Decor rather last minute as we decided we wanted some lighting inside our reception venue. They said they could do it, no problem. They strung the lights while we were setting up the rest of the venue the day before the wedding and reception. They had to work around us and all the tables and chairs. They came in, got right to work and were done in no time. We hardly knew they were there! I also called around to other companies to do this job and they were the best price and the most accommodating , especially on such short notice. They also were the only ones in town that had the cafe lights that we wanted. Without question they were one of the best vendors we used! I highly recommend Avant Decor!

The lighting and draping completed my decor at the reception hall. It set a romantic mood and created an elegant environment.

Avant Décor was fantastic to work with for our wedding. We had no problems or worries - they took care of everything. The draping made our venue look absolutely beautiful. LOVE - LOVE - LOVE them!!! Highly recommended!

Avant Decor were so easy to work with. Very quick to respond on email and provided multiple options for my pricepoint. They worked directly with my venue so it was extremely easy to have everything set up. The room looked amazing!!

My family and husband were very surprised to see that the back drop we requested came with lighting in it, It made the wedding ceremony more elegant than it was. The lighting was very simple, (not overwhelming) and looked incredible!

Avant did an amazing job and we loved what they did. They have an amazing variety of choices and Elizabeth was easy and fun to work with! We gave them some flexibility in how they did things, and they did not dissapoint, and even exceeded expectations.

Elizabeth was great to work with and they did a fantastic job! We could not be happier with the draping and ceiling decorations they provided!

Elizabeth was fun and really helpful!

They were very friendly and talented, quick to respond to emails and were able to work around my budgetary needs. I would recommend them to my family and friends. They did a beautiful job with my wedding. It looked absolutely gorgeous!

Great partnership. Will recommend and continue to work with in the future.

Everyone loved the drapery and said that it brought the whole room together.

Elizabeth and her partner did an amazing job transforming our venue into something far beyond what my husband and I could have dreamed of doing on our own. I have done my research and their prices and value beat the rest of what I could find around the twin cities. We are very happy we had Avant do our ceiling, stage, and guestbook table drapery and uplighting. Elizabeth was very prompt with responding to our many questions and was always so kind and flexible. I would recommend Avant to all my friends and family.

Elizabeth was very flexible and was able to accommodate us on very short notice.

Elizabeth was very friendly and provided great customer service. The draping was beautiful and made the room. I would highly recommend Avant Decor!

They were able to work with me extremely last minute (I didn't get details finalized for them until the week before our wedding)! They did a great job and provided beautiful decor for us. If I had the chance to go with Avant again, I definitely would!

We're so happy that we chose Avant Decor. The draping and lighting work that they did for us was beautiful. It added tremendously to the ambiance of our evening. They are professional and very easy to work with. They also provide great value for the price.

We had Avant Decor do the ceiling draping at our wedding on June 30th, 2012. They did such an amazing job and Elizabeth was so professional and great to work with! I would highly recommend them!

Everything was done when we got to the venue and it look wonderful

I absolutely loved the decor. The wedding venue looked beautiful with the uplighting and ceiling swag. Avant was great to work with and always prompt getting back to me. I would definetly recommend them to any bride.

Our wedding was at Earle Brown Heritage Center with a "Country" theme! Avant was the company that was recommended to us for ceiling draping. Anytime I emailed them or made a phone call to ask a question or get an opinion on an idea I had, I always received a quick personal response! I was able to see some of Avants creations at a food tasting we attended at Earle brown and saw how a partial draping looked and also accenting. We ended up in the end with having our rooms ceiling being partially draped in Ivory with an accent of brown. It was beautiful and matched the vision we had in our heads perfectly! They also were so flexible in substituting the additional accent fee for a promotional no charge headtable draping that they were offering at the time but we had no need for that feature being our headtable was in the center of our room. Thanx Avant!!!!!!

I met with several vendors for draping, and Elizabeth from Avant Decor was the only person that I felt like understood what I was looking for AND could afford. A lot of the other vendors just assume that you will book with them and push you really hard to add costs/etc. Avant Decor was easy to work with, professional, and flexible with what we were looking for on our wedding day. Great people!

I can't say enough about Melissa & Elizabeth and Avant Decor. They specialize in ceiling draping and decor so they are the absolute BEST at what they do. I have had the luxury of working with them before my May 19th wedding and their execution and quality of work never ceases to amaze me. They consistently deliver and made my ceiling draping a breeze (the last of my worries) for my wedding. I had almost forgotten about the draping until I walked into my reception and was taken aback by how they had completely transformed my space. Thanks again girls!

Avant did amazing draping and was incredibly flexible with us. They came in a day early and were efficient. They had a ton of colors to choose from.

Avant Decor did the ceiling draping for my son's wedding in January, 2012 at the Crowne Plaza in Plymouth. The did an amazing job and it looked great. They were easy to work with and responded quickly to any questions I had. I would highly recommend them. They will not disappoint you!

Can't say enough about Avant Decor. They did a beautiful job with not a glitch! I'm the mother of the bride and would most certainly recommend them for your special day!

Avant Decor did a great job at our wedding reception. We had twinkle lit swag hung from the ceiling and it was just the right touch for our wedding. It set the perfect tone and looked extremely elegant!

Avant Decor was awesome to work with. They made my venue site look elegant and beautiful. I would highly recommend using Avant Decor for the ceiling drapery as it was an added touch that added the perfect touch to the room.

Thank you Avant Decor!

We compared several ceiling draping vendors. Avant Decor had the design expertise we were looking for. We had white and teal draping with twinkle lights and white lanterns , it was gorgeous! We were able to share the cost of the decor for both the Friday and Saturday night weddings. It worked perfect and was even better than what we had imaginied. We would highly recommend this vendor.

They were very easy to work with and are extremely familiar with the ballrooms at Earle Brown Heritage Center. The ceiling drapes gave the large ballroom an elegant touch, and entrance drapes in the bride's color were a marvelous touch. It is nice to know that you can hire a vendor and then forget about the task, knowing they will take care of it for you.

Avant Decor was an affordable vendor and provided a high-level of professionalism, responding to my questions in a timely fashion and very helpful with providing new ideas. The ceiling draping they did for our wedding was beautiful! Thank you Avant Decor!

Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful!! The ceiling decor that Avant Decor provided MADE the room. I highly recommend them!

Met with us at venue. Very professional. Lots of ideas. Room looked beautiful!!!!

Avant Decor did an amazing job. We got many compliments on our ceiling drapery.

Beautiful job, easy to work with, on time and efficient. As an Interior Designer myself, I was 100% taken care of and loved the way it turned out!

Avant Decor was excellent to work with!! Also went above and beyond to help family members who were doing other set up the morning of the wedding!! Draping was positively beautiful and we received many compliments from our wedding guests on how fabulous the room looked.

Avant did a great job with the decor for my reception call. They work a lot with my reception hall and so there was very little that I actually had to do.

Also there was a karate tournament in my reception room prior to our event and Avant only had about 2 hours before people arrived to get everything up and ready. It looked BEAUTIFUL!

I hired Avant Decor to do the cieling draping and it was absolutely gorgeous and definitely made the room look elegant and classy! I was extremely impressed when I was with my wedding party at Crave in SLP before the reception (in btwn ceremony and reception) and my husband and I each received a glass of champagne from the ladies at Avant Decor! So nice of them...Thank You and I highly recommend your company to any bride!
Thanks,

I really liked avant decor, they were quick and simple, I used them for a backdrop behind my head table.. and WOW is all I can say, It added so much to the room!

it was very nice and made eveything look great

The ceiling decor looked beautiful at my wedding. We did feel later when we received photos back that the lanterns were too sparse and wished that more had been hung to fill the space more and provide a little more cover to the ceiling. However that would have been a problem in part due to the fact that we underestimated how many lanterns were needed and were trying not to break the budget. I wished that someone would have made the call to spend a few more dollars to get the ceiling a little more filled in. We definitely felt that it was COMPLETELY worth the money to have someone else hang them rather that try to do it ourselves.

I absolutely loved what our ceiling looked like with the drapery. It definitely added to our ballroom and it was the one thing i was most excited about at the reception. As much as I liked it, I felt that it was very expensive. I wish that the pricing would have been a little more reasonable and they could have worked with us a little more. Nevertheless, the staff was wonderful!

I was very pleased with the service and it was beautiful. Not sure what the usual cost is for this service so unsure of value for cost, but we did get a good deal.

The drapery that Avant Décor provided was absolutely beautiful. The entire process was seamless and the décor transformed the banquet room.

I would recommend Avant Décor to any planner or bride.

Avant Decor provided ceiling draping and uplights for our wedding reception. The draping was amazing; it added so much to the high ceilings at our hall. I had relatives comment on how nice the space looked, and I know a large part of that was because of the draping. The uplights were not as bright as I thought they would be, although they were the regular lights (not LED). Melissa was there the day before to setup, and arrived at Midnight to take it down; all for no extra cost. Overall, I would recommend Avant Decor for ceiling draping. Although draping in general can be expensive, Avant was reasonable and did an excellent job.

Avant provided the tulle draping for our reception.

The draping was simple, elegant, and about half the price of other vendors for the same service.

The darlings of drapery, these ladies know their stuff!
