We looked at a…read morenumber of other rental companies that were referred by our venue, but most had very similar (nice) inventories and an aesthetic that just didn't match our personalities. Lisa however had ALL the cool stuff we were looking for. Leaning heavier into mid-century collectibles and mod antiques, we couldn't have been happier with the selection and pricing. Lisa was super fun and easy to work with, and really has a passion for serving her clients. Set up and break down were seamless too... If you're looking to bring some character and swagger to your event or wedding, I would highly suggest Beautiful Things...

From the moment I initially talked to you over the phone, I knew that you and I would vibe so well, and I knew you could see my vision! Not only are your rentals gorgeous, but you and your amazing family set it all up perfectly! Your company's kindness and professionalism did not go unnoticed, and I still haven't come down from my wedding high, and I know that it is largely because I had such an amazing team of people helping me plan my dream wedding weekend! You are amazing, and I can't wait to hire you again for another event soon!!

Soon after, I met with Jennifer and Tera who became an invaluable source of support and help during the event planning stage. They asked what I envisioned the dinner to be like, were open to any suggestions or last minute changes, had done their own research to keep costs low, and were in constant communication with me during the entire process. They literally helped co-host the dinner with me in welcoming guests, assisting the chef, and making the transitions of meals in ease. In addition, they were quick to clean up and conclude the night's event, which really surprised and amazed me. Organized, efficient, mindful and honest are the words I'd use to describe my experience with them. I highly recommend their talents and am extremely grateful to have crossed paths with them. I cannot thank them enough.

As our one year anniversary approaches, we are excitedly returning to Phoenix *and* we are excitedly going to meet up with our new, dear friends Cicely & Rebecca. A little back story, my husband and I have been together for 19 years now. As two guys, we once didn't even have the right to marry, and even today, as you can imagine, many people still are disapproving or are uncomfortable or whatnot. Anyhow, keep that in your back pocket. Back in 2016, we had a random work trip to Phoenix. We decided to spend a night at the Biltmore, since we are huge Frank Lloyd Wright fans. We decided to get married there! It was the perfect spot. The wonderful Biltmore folks introduced us to Cicely and Rebecca (and two other planning firms), whom we met via Skype from our home back in NYC. Unlike the other planners, they wanted to get to know us and our story, unlike other planners who seemed to tick off a list of "what do you want at your wedding reception." We hit it off so PERFECTLY on the first call. It seemed to be meant to be how smart and talented and sweet they were. While we had nice meetings with the other planners, Life Design set the bar so much higher. From that point on, they did everything so perfectly. They were responsive at all hours of the day, they came up with creative ideas that always fit within our budget, and they provided sound advice on where to spend more money or less money to get our overall effect. They created such an impressive plan for us that we were excited every step of the way to see it play out. Since we didn't tell anyone that we were getting married after all these years, they worked with their recommended vendors to come up with a brilliant plan to send out a small book with the story of our lives as our "save the date." So in December of 2016, our family and friends got a box with a book in the mail. It was a huge hit with us and with everyone in our lives. Our invitations had such sophistication and class. They helped introduce us to incredibly talented and open minded and hard working vendors who never once caused us worry or concern. As we gave them the very complicated task of figuring out a memorable welcome reception within a reasonable budget, they worked and worked and worked and came up with a brilliant outdoor event at the Hermosa Inn, which included so many creative touches that our guests loved, including tacos cooked over cauldrons, a fun s'more station over a cauldron, and the beauty of the Southwest. What an event! Most importantly, I will be immodest and say our wedding was insanely awesome. They came up with a design that fit our aesthetic and the great setting of the Biltmore. Our guests were blown away by how beautiful and sophisticated everything was. They came up with beautiful details in terms of linens, furniture, table markers, signage, and everything else. Cicely and Rebecca worked their butts off. On the weekend of our wedding, our friends were amazed that we were relaxing by the pool with them because Cicely and Rebecca and their magical team took care of everything and we had nothing to worry about. We can't say a single negative thing, and we have nothing but the highest recommendation for these brilliant women. We love that they made our wedding so gorgeous and so artistic and so high-end. We love that they worked carefully with our needs. We love that they were so attentive and hard working. We love that they are so caring and open-minded. Wow. Just wow. Thank you.

I submitted a request for proposal on her website late on a Friday afternoon expecting a call back on Monday. Judy was out of town with her family but took time shortly after I submitted the request to call me to find out what I needed. I knew at that moment that Judy would be my "partner in crime" to put on a truly special celebration. Every detail was meticulously planned and executed and our 50+ guests could not stop complementing what a great job "I" had done. Two unexpected special touches were a margarita glass personalized with my wife's nickname, and a photo album that she gave us at the end of the night that she had assembled during the course of the event that included pictures from our slide show along with a collection of photos from the Photo Booth! Judy's selection for catering, bartender, photo booth and DJ were spot on and she kept to my budget. I wholeheartedly recommend Judy and Whatchaneed Planning for anyone wanting to put on a first class event.
