Working with Nichole and her team at XO Design Co. was honestly the best decision I made when planning our wedding. When I initially met with Nichole, I was beyond impressed because she was able to build upon the very minimal ideas that I provided at the time (I am not a creative person) and that she was able to on to come up with an absolutely dreamy vision for our wedding on the spot during our first meeting. The only details I told her were the general color scheme and that I wanted "dark and moody" as the vibe... she took this information and created a truly stunning event for us. Throughout the process, Nichole and her team were extremely responsive and she treated me like a friend, which made me feel valued and comfortable as I worked with her. Nichole and her team put care and thought into every detail to make it perfect. I cannot emphasize enough how fortunate we were to have worked with XO Design Co.

My husband and I had hired Nichole and XO designs for our elegant wedding on 4/4/2020. Nichole and I had designed such a beautiful, extravagant design for our big day and I was beyond floored to see it come to fruition; Nichole’s vision was inspiring. However, COVID hit and three weeks before our big day we were forced to cancel our wedding. Our contract with XO stated we owed a non-refundable 50%, which I totally understood because it was written ahead of time and we signed knowing that statement. However, unlike other vendors, Nichole instantly asked what she could do for us so we could use that 50% we paid. We had several phone calls leading up to 4/4 and had to change our elopement plans so many times and didn’t finalize day of details until a few days before our elopement. Nichole was patient and kind through the whole experience and drove out to the suburbs to set up a gorgeous display at my in-laws house so that we would have a beautiful backdrop for our wedding day. I cannot thank her or recommend her enough for what she put together, especially so last minute. I also cannot stress that XO could’ve easily taken our 50% and walked away when our wedding got cancelled, but still went out of their way to deliver us beautiful florals and decor so that we received something for what we paid, NO OTHER VENDOR DID THIS FOR US. Truly so kind.

“I've said this before and I'll say it again- Aside from saying I do, hiring Nichole and her team was the best decision we made for our special day. Not only was the planning and coordination spot on but then there's the decor.... oh the decor, the floral, the garland where do I begin? I was told all night and still am told that our wedding was the most romantic and beautiful they had ever seen/attended. Nichole is professional, kind, and always has your best interest in mind. She puts you and your vision first- and is very prompt and attentive to detail. For a day that means so much... and where time stands still... Xo Design Co will help you bring all your dreams to life. Thank you thank you thank you!”
