I called Ara up as we got closer to the wedding because I realized there were some things I could not do myself, nor did I trust anyone else to do them. I had a strong vision for the design I wanted on the day of my wedding. But I could not be there to execute it. What to do?
Ara came through. She styled the venue on the day of. She worked so well with my florist. The table card set up was exactly what I dreamed--the table covered with beautiful orchids and birch vases. The cards were placed on japanese grass mats and looked very clean and designy. The dinner tables were set up flawlessly, with a real attention to the "guest experience."
As my husband said after our wedding, if Ara had not been there, I probably would have been so worried about what the venue looked like that I might not have been able to let go and enjoy the day. I think at first he wasn't sure why I needed an on site designer. Now he knows that it made me more relaxed, and that is exactly what he wanted too.
Ara is a true professional with an easy going personality who gets things done beautifully. Having her there on the day of your wedding will surely prevent any worry...

Ara was a pleasure to work with, and her strengths were definitely the styling of the wedding - she was creative, receptive, but also practical in her advice. She has a very sunny personality but is firm when it comes to work, which is a perfect combination. Her ability to break down services a la carte makes it possible to retain her excellent services for much less than a more traditional wedding planner.

Did such a wonderful job! Had great suggestions/ alternatives and helped me make decisions that were way to difficult for me to make on my own. Life saver! I had to change the timing of the wedding because I got married on the day of the hurricane, Ara was there and ready to work and get everything set up in time!!

My husband and I can not say enough about Ara and her amazing team at Rock Paper Scissors! From the very beginning they were professional, flexible, creative and so great to work with. Ara came up with ideas for our wedding that we would never have thought of and she executed all of them beautifully. We were also so impressed with how conscientious she was of our budget. She is an incredibly hard worker and also just a joy to be around. All of our guests were commenting on all of the details...and they would never have existed without Ara's creativity. We can't imagine our wedding without her.

We worked with Ara for my September wedding and we were more than impressed with her work. She has such a friendly personality and has wonderful, unique ideas but also incorporated everything we asked her for. I would highly recommend her to any one who needs a few ideas ideas and someone who will turn your vision into reality.

My experience with Rock Paper Scissors has been superior. Ara's professional and personable manner combined with her innate design style turned our wedding vision into a reality. My husband and I were blown away by the final result. It was totally "us" and Ara made it happen. Throughout the process, Ara listened carefully to my ideas and asked questions to clarify my vision while at the same time offering new and creative suggestions to enhance our aesthetic. She even accompanied me to some vendor appointments! Ara not only worked with my time schedule, but also helped me get organized! Her attention to detail set the table for a well planned and organized event. Less stress for me! Overall, Ara felt like a big sister with an impeccable sense of style. She was supportive, reliable and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Rock Paper Scissors for any event!

Ara was sooooo helpful in giving me advice to pull together my colors and centerpieces. I incorporated many of her wonderful ideas into my wedding day and was very happy with how it all turned out. I love her aesthetic, and I would totally recommend her without hesitation.

Ara and her Rock Paper Scissors crew were just plain amazing. Hiring Ara was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! She went above and beyond to make sure she knew exactly how to create our vision of what our wedding should look and feel like. What a success!! Ara thought of every detail and helped us manage it all in a truly caring, fun and professional manner. The design and decor were just beautiful!!! I would highly recommend RPS.
