2 Create Designs

I used 2create Designs for both my brothers wedding & my own. I could not have been happier both events with Saman’s work & especially her finishing touches. Her work is perfection! Most of all, she is extremely trustworthy & reliable. Once I booked Saman, i had the peace of mind that my wedding would look amazing, and immediately knew that I was in good hands! She truly goes above and beyond for you, and the end product is better than what you could have imagined! If you want to be stress-​free on the day of your wedding, book 2create designs :)

2create design was phenomenal! Saman was easy to work with and her design/​decoration for my wedding was more beautiful than anything I could’ve imagined. She took care of all the little details so I had zero stress on my big day. If you’re looking for a classy and elegant feel for your wedding, this is the decorator to go with. She really is the best

Saman was great to work with for my indian wedding. On short notice (literally weeks) she brought my dream indian wedding to life. She was responsible, professional, and delivered exactly what she promised. Also she was less expensive than many other vendors I talked to.

This review is LONG overdue. First off, I did not book with 2CreateDesigns, however I owe a whole lot to Ali and what he did for me. After being burned 4 times by horrible vendors I had contacted 2CreateDesigns for some gold chiavari chair rentals for my wedding back on Nov. 2014 in SD. I informed Ali of the situation I was in and after meeting with him and making arrangements he realized he had another contract booked for the same weekend and informed me he would not be able to provide the chairs. I was devastated BUT this is where Ali and 2CreateDesigns saved everything. Instead of leaving me out to dry, Ali went out of his way to contact other chiavari chair vendors in the Orange County area for the same if not better price. For several days he called and emailed other vendors until he was able to connect me with someone.
I couldn’t believe it! Ali did all that out of the goodness of his heart and asked for nothing in return. A great guy and I can’t thank him enough. We need more vendors like Ali. I wish him and 2CreateDesigns all the best!

2createdesigns did my wedding in August. I wanted something that stood out from the usual. She went above and beyond what I asked for. The color palettes she used were like nothing I’ve seen before. I received so many compliments on my wedding décor. Saman and her crew deliver centerpieces that are much more lush and grand for a much better price than her competitors! I was extremely particular with the details of my wedding stage and she did exactly what I wanted without me having to do a thing. I just showed up and everything was perfect! I wouldn’t go anywhere else for future events!

I used 2Create Designs for chiavari chairs and linens for my wedding reception. The quality of the chairs and linens were great! I worked with Ali and he was very responsive and professional.

I used 2 Create as a florist for my wedding and Saman is amazing! I showed her a few photos for some ideas and she knew exactly what I wanted. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous! I received so many compliments at the wedding. The flowers were well worth the money and exceeded my expectations! Thank you Saman for making my wedding so beautiful!

To say this company is an absolute nightmare is an understatement.
Summary:
Booked 2Create Designs 4 months before our wedding (highly referred by our amazing coordinator). Told them what we wanted and our budget. They approved and we signed the contract and gave a hefty deposit. 2 weeks before our wedding 2Create Designs informs us they «won’t be able to meet their (our) expectations.» 2Create Designs cancels our order, returns our deposit, and leaves us on the verge of flushing 10 months of planning and close to $ 80,000 of spending down the tubes. Our coordinator (did I mention she’s amazing?) came to the rescue by introducing us to an up and coming florist, with absolutely amazing prices and incredible talent. Peachwood Events saved us! Look up Peachwood Events if you’re looking for an amazing florist by an extremely talented team, with incredible prices! Unless you’re looking to be stressed to the max for your wedding day, DO NOT HIRE 2Create Designs!!! Why even take the chance when there are other florists that can, at the very least, do the same quality of work, but probably much better, and charge way less?! Read the full story below, if you have time.
2Create Designs was recommended to us by our coordinator, who has referred lots of clients to 2Create Deisgns. Our coordinator had nothing but good things to say about 2Create Designs and after checking out Unilocal’s great reviews as well, my fiancé looked at 2Create Designs’ website, she found that 2Create Designs has done arrangements similar to what she wants. She called 2Create Designs, told them who she was referred by. My fiancé also told them that she was looking to do something similar to a picture they had on their website. 2Create Designs asked her what her budget was and they confirmed that her budget was definitely enough to do what she was asking for. 2Create Designs wrote up the invoice with all the details, signed it, and we gave them a hefty deposit.
We could get the arrangement we were looking for at half the price at other vendors, but being that 2Create Designs and our coordinator had worked together on so many occasions, we figured it would be the best way to go, even if it meant paying double.
Fast-​forward 4 months (2 weeks before the wedding), 2Create Designs delivers our mockup. It was the absolute worst arrangement I’ve ever seen (and I’m a guy who doesn’t care, nor know much about flowers… but I know cheap and ugly when I see it!). Not only was I disgusted, but the coordinator and my fiancé were both in disbelief at how horrible it was. And most importantly, it was not at all what my fiancé had selected, nor was it what was on the invoice. It looked like they didn’t have time to put an arrangement together, so they went to downtown LA and picked up a $ 10 arrangement with random colors and brought it to the mockup. It was so bad, that the owner never even showed up. Instead she had it delivered by one of her workers.
Later that night, the owner of 2Create Designs talks with our coordinator and tells our coordinator «I won’t be able to meet their expectations. They’re budget is not enough.» 2Create Designs then cancels our order and offers to refund our deposit.
I was in complete and utter shock as I sat there, numb, and just lost, starring at nothing. All I could see is 10 months of wedding preparations and close to $ 80,000 spent was about to be destroyed by a heartless, selfish, greedy vendor. Funny how our budget was plenty 4 months earlier and all of a sudden it’s not enough two weeks before the wedding.
Any bride and groom know that the last two weeks are the absolute craziest as you’re trying to tie all the loose ends and make all the final payments. Now throw the need to find a last minute florist into the mix and it’s literally Hell on Earth! I wouldn’t wish this type of stress on anyone!
Our amazing coordinator and Peachwood Events (new florist) came to the rescue, but this could have been extremely tragic. Don’t chance it with 2Create Designs. Even though it may be a small chance, don’t risk being the couple they end up canceling on last minute. Look up Peachwood Events, the amazing florist company that ended up doing exactly what we wanted, at half the price, and delivered!

I went with 2CreatDesigns for their chiavari chairs for my wedding. I worked with Ali. He’s great! He always got back to me with any questions I had, he responded in a good amount of time and he provided great customer service. It was a pleasure working with him and his team.
The chiavari chairs I ordered looked great! The chair quality is outstanding! Sometimes you see paint chipping off and stains on the cushions but not on these! I’m highly pleased and I would recommend Ali at 2CreatDesigns for any event.

2CreateDesigns put a white dance floor for my wedding in June. I surprised my wife the day of the wedding with it (she really wanted it), and she LOVED it. She said it changed the whole look of the room. Other guests also made comments saying how much they liked it (I didnt hear one complaint).
Besides the product, working with them was exemplary as well. This was a last second decision that they made happen. They also worked well with the hotel on dropping off, installing, taking down, and picking up.
Thank you guys for everything.

I used 2 Create Designs for my wedding as Saman and her team came highly recommended by friends and family that had used her services in the past. Considering I lived on the opposite coast of where I was getting married, there were alot of obstacles to overcome before the big day but Saman made the process as seamless as possible and everything went off without a hitch!
I met with her twice before my actual wedding day (once during the planning process and then again a week before my wedding day). We stayed in constant contact via email and phone throughout the entire process and she was extremely patient and helpful as I had several concepts we were working through. I am definitely a perfectionist as it relates to overall design and execution and I’m happy to say that Saman made it her priority to make sure everything was done exactly as discussed. She not only met my expectations but exceeded them.
Overall it was a pleasure working with Saman and I would absolutely recommend her services to anyone. Thanks for doing an amazing job Saman, your passion and professionalism for what you do make the entire process of getting married a memorable one!

We could not have imagined the décor for our wedding to be any better! It was perfect, exactly how we dreamed it would be. Saman from 2Create worked with both of our families to design two events with over 650 people! Leading up to the wedding, she paid great attention to the details we wanted at our wedding and knew exactly the looks we were going for. Our outdoor ceremony was a particular favorite of our guests, they said they’ve never seen a more beautiful and unique setting. Saman is able to transform any space into something eye-​catching and memorable. She also worked on our siblings’ wedding five years ago and people still mention how breathtaking it was! Saman herself is very reliable, full of ideas, and fun! :) She is easy to work with and understands all that goes into planning a large event. When our venue required a wedding planner, she was able to include one in our package making it much easier for us. We highly recommend the event design by 2Create due to visionary and professional service!

Saman is an event design genius. She is both very creatively talented and the absolute professional. She worked with my wedding coordinator and I on every step of the event design process. She walks you through everything, so that you know exactly what you are getting. She is intuitive, listens very carefully to all that you want, understands your vision, and then one ups it. Her portfolio (check out her website) is filled with beautiful events and it was exactly the reason why we hired her. Even after seeing her past work, I was unprepared for the work of art that was my wedding reception.
Saman designed the staging and floral arrangements for my wedding reception. Both of which were absolutely stunning! She is very easy to work with and is honest about what will and will not work. If she thinks that something is off or missing, she will make sure to fix it. She takes her work seriously and is determined to give you the best design she can.
All night and for weeks after the wedding (even now) we received compliments about how beautiful the floral arrangements and staging were during our reception.
I can’t say enough good things about Saman, her creativity, her professionalism, and the ease of working with her. I can’t wait to have more events, just so we can hire her!

Saman did an amazing job on the centerpieces for my daughter’s welcoming party! She carried out my vision beyond my expectations. The flowers were all colorful and bright and the containers were so fun and fit the theme of my party just perfectly. Thank you 2Create Designs for your wonderful work. I look forward to you guys doing my next event :)

2Create’s Saman is a true professional — and philanthropist! I was first exposed to her work when she donated her event design services for a large annual charity fashion show in Orange County for 800 guests. The audience was literally awestruck by her stage design. This goes a long way in demonstrating 2Create Design’s range.
After seeing their work, I knew I wanted to approach 2Create Designs for my wedding. I was going for an detailed, ethereal, and luxurious décor look, and I wanted each dollar of my budget to go a long way. My family, fiancé and I, and our guests were truly struck by the quality and vision of 2Create Designs — they executed to perfection.
Additionally:
–They are great with communication. I never felt like they ‘disappeared’ — in fact, they were always following up with me.
–The centerpiece samples they prepared were immaculate.
–Their service up to and on the day of is timely and professional. In the three times I have personally worked with 2Create Designs, they have never been late or setup late, and yet they are always checking their work and doing as much as possible until the last moment to make things more than perfect (perfectionists!)
–They are creative. Bring up an idea and they’ll meet you halfway, and then go above and beyond and surprise you with just how well they deliver.
Several people hired 2Create Designs after seeing their work at my wedding. I’ve had such a pleasant experience working with them that I never hesitate to refer anyone to them. Their work and the quality they give for your budget speaks for itself.

I have worked with Saman and her team on numerous weddings. Not only is she talented and innovative, but professional and punctual. She is also highly responsive during the planning process. All of these traits are key when choosing a wedding designer. When you work with 2 Create Designs, you can be confident that your event will be a stunner!

Ali was the best to work with! Very professional and quick responses to email/​phone calls, even text! I rented chairs from 2 Create Designs for my sisters wedding in January. Chairs were great and pick up and delivery was prompt and on time. Love them.

I have been fortunate to have worked with Saman and her wonderful team for quite a few years now. I have worked for a couple of wedding venues, and one of the first things I do is to add Saman to my preferred vendor list. Each time we work together I am just in awe at how beautiful and creative her designs are… just when I think I’ve seen the most beautiful décor, she tops herself at our next event. Not only is she super creative, she has to be the BEST wedding professional that I have had the pleasure to work with. I always know that my bride and groom are in great hands when their are working with Saman and her team — and I always look forward to working with her. I’ve always received terrific feedback from any of my brides and grooms that have worked with Saman… can’t wait for our next event!

I cannot say enough about 2createdesigns and their founder SAMAN. Allow me to start by letting you know that I was your typical Bridezilla. Yes, the one who would wake up randomly at 2am and realized that she didn’t want emerald anymore for her table linens and wanted coral instead! I was a complete control freak who wanted every thing to be beyond perfect, every flower had to be perfectly arranged, every pearl in the flower garland had to be a specific size, every single napkin had to be placed a specific way, boy was I nuts! But guess what? Saman Shah of 2createdesigns must’ve lived in my brain for the last year because when I walked into my ballroom the night of our wedding — I was speechless. I COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW PERFECT EVERYTHING WAS. I remember entering the ballroom and feeling as though time had stopped, I felt like a queen, everything was perfect to a T — every flower, the colors, the lighting, the dance floor, our amazing stage! SAMAN HAD DONE IT — SHE TRANSFORMED MY FANTASY WEDDING INTO REALITY.
To top it off, Saman is the most patient, kind hearted, and honest person you will meet in the wedding industry. She replied to all of my nagging text messages and emails (Even when they made no sense at all!), she never, not once, raised her voice or got furstrated! I found Samans behavior to be especially comforting. Being a bride was very stressful for me because I was balancing a lot on my shoulders, plus I wanted everything to be perfect so this made me a nutcase often but EVERYTIME I SPOKE TO SAMAN ON THE PHONE, I FELT CALMER. She has a sense of calmness in her voice, one that says «don’t worry, everything will be just fine,» without her even saying that. She really listens to you and hears what you want even when you don’t know what you want! LOL. I honestly feel that my wedding would not have been as spectacular as it was without SAMAN of 2CREATEDESIGNS. The entire 2createdesigns team is fabulous, I would recommend them 100 times and I would use them for all of my future events without a second thought!

Saman and her team have the ability to create such beautiful and unique designs that I’d trust them 100% (which I have) but they also have the ability to make your vision come true. Every event I’ve been to that has been decorated by this team, I’m blown away. My favorite backdrop they’ve done was filled with beautiful green plants. It fit the golf course venue perfectly. Saman has great connections also and will make your event very unique. At my summer baby shower she arranged for beautiful colorful drapery above the food and desserts and arranged for a homemade Popsicle stand. The centerpieces fit the «pop» theme perfectly. They were colorful flowers shaped like a lollipop! This team is also affordable. I’d really recommend taking the stress out of decorating yourself and hire a professionals, specifically 2 create designs.
