The People Behind Tavlexu
Specialists inCelebration Design
Every decorated venue and arranged floral arch comes from a small, focused team that handles each project with direct personal attention — from the first conversation to the final detail on the day.
Who works on your event
Two specialists, one shared focus: making celebrations look exactly as you pictured them, with none of the guesswork.

A small team means direct contact throughout
When you contact Tavlexu, you speak with the same person who will physically set up your venue. There is no project manager relaying messages between you and someone you have never met. Both Darian and Solenne take on a limited number of events per month to maintain that level of direct involvement.
That constraint is deliberate. Overcommitting to events is the most common reason decoration quality drops in the week before a wedding. The team keeps the schedule tight enough that each client receives real attention, not a copy-and-paste setup from a previous event.
What clients get
- Direct access to the designer
- One point of contact from start to finish
- Familiarity with AB venue conditions
- Honest feedback on what will work on site
What to keep in mind
- Availability fills up 6–8 weeks out
- Large multi-venue days need early planning
- Custom floral orders require lead time
How a typical project moves forward
From first contact to the morning of your event, the process stays the same across every booking — no surprises, no hand-offs to someone new.
-
Initial conversation
You share the venue, date, and a rough visual direction. Solenne asks specific questions about the space and what you want guests to notice first.
-
Proposal and materials
A written proposal lists each decoration element, estimated setup time, and what materials are sourced locally versus ordered. No vague line items.
-
Site visit if needed
For larger setups Darian visits the venue ahead of the event to check ceiling heights, anchor points, and lighting conditions that affect how florals read on camera.
-
Setup and handover
The team arrives with enough lead time to handle the full setup before guests or photographers arrive. You get a walkthrough before leaving for the day.
