ABBA Design: Reviews
Fantastic experience: ABBA Design is phenomenal when it comes to event planning! We worked with them for a little over a year planning our multi-event wedding for April 19th, 2025. We met periodically throughout the previous year to slowly plan all the details. We felt supported through the process and they were very communicative whenever we emailed or called about anything. They have connections with the best vendors locally, are resourceful when it comes to budget, and have beautiful design aesthetic for table decor & displays. We also loved that they are a florist- the designs effortlessly coordinate and it simplifies the process. When the weekend finally came, they got right to work to execute all of our beautiful planning. They are very grounded and know what they are doing , which made the day stress-free. They think about things and complete them before you think of them. The team they have works well together seamlessly and with all of the other vendors- as a bride on her wedding day , you don't even notice what is happening; it's all quietly and professionally happening without any need of input. They check in with you on your wedding day to see if you need anything. We had so many worries and fears about logistically how some of our planned events would go, but when they arrived - everything worked out as planned. I admire their business , what they accomplish design wise , and how they operate. 10/10 would recommend them as your wedding/event planner!! So much love for the ABBA Design team♥️ Professional Photos by Bekah Leanne Photography LLC

Tonya
Fantastic experience: Lizzie, our wedding planner at ABBA Design, was truly exceptional from start to finish. She displayed an incredible attention to detail, taking the time to fully understand what was most important to us and just as importantly, what was not. Her ability to tailor the planning process around our specific needs made everything feel personal and stress-free. Throughout the entire journey, Lizzie maintained constant communication. She was incredibly responsive, promptly addressing every item on our to-do list and ensuring nothing slipped through the cracks. Her organizational skills and follow-through gave us complete peace of mind. The wedding itself was absolutely stunning. From the floral arrangements and décor to the layout of the venue, every element was beautifully curated and thoughtfully executed. It was clear that Lizzie had poured her heart into creating a cohesive and memorable experience. What truly stood out was her flawless coordination with all the vendors. Everything ran smoothly behind the scenes thanks to her and her highly professional, attentive team. We never had to worry about logistics, she had it all handled seamlessly. The welcome party was also a major highlight! It was a huge success and perfectly captured the fun spirit of our pickleball theme. Guests couldn’t stop raving about it. In the three weeks leading up to the wedding, we felt calm and confident, a rare feeling for most brides! That peace came directly from knowing Lizzie had every detail covered and was fully aligned with our vision. Her dedication, professionalism, and genuine care made all the difference in creating a wedding experience that exceeded our expectations.
Anne,
Thank you so much for all the sweet words! You, Katherine and Jacob were dream clients! Their wedding will forever go down as one of my favorites to be a part of and I am grateful to have met such a wonderful group of people!!
Fantastic experience: Lizzie and Tonya were exceptional to work with. They totally took the stress away and planned a beautiful wedding. We truly enjoyed their company and input throughout the whole process. We loved their ABBA team and would recommend them to anyone looking for a stress free wedding process.
Katherine!! Y’all were so much fun to work with and appreciate you and your families so much! Best wishes you to and Jacob!
Tonya
Fantastic experience: The best event planning company I've worked with. We've used them a few times now and are always happy. They love what they do and you can tell they put their heart into it.
Travis,
Thank you so much! We appreciate your continued support and love planning events for you and your family! Thank you for always trusting us.
Fantastic experience: Tonya and Lizzie helped us plan the perfect wedding for my daughter! Everything was beautiful - flowers, place settings, dance floor; ceremony site and they helped with all the details. Could not have asked for better planners or flowers!
Christi - thank you so much! Planning and designing for Delaney + Louden and the families was a great joy this year!
Negative experience: Hired during COVID and not one person showed up with or worked with a mask on.
Fantastic experience: Tonya and team are incredible! They provided me with a floral wall and balloon display for a work event. Professional, kind, efficient, and a great eye for design!
Arianna - thank you so much! It was a pleasure working with you and we look forward to more opportunities!
Tonya
Fantastic experience: The team at ABBA Design did an amazing job on the design and execution of my daughter's recent wedding. This was the first wedding in our family so I had no idea!! Tonya and Lizzie kept us organized and on track. They turned the venue into a magical place with the flowers and decor. On the day of the wedding, Lizzie was great, always there when we needed anything!!!! They gave my daughter and son in law an amazing day!!! Thank you ABBA Design.
Thank you so much for trusting us with such a special time in everyone's lives! We loved how the design came together for Paige and Taylor. It was a truly magical day!
Fantastic experience: Words can’t fully capture how incredibly grateful we are for Abba Design, Tonya, Lizzie and the breathtaking florals they created for our wedding. From the very beginning, they didn’t just listen to our ideas—they truly understood the emotion and atmosphere we were dreaming of. What they delivered was beyond anything we could have imagined. When I walked into our ceremony and reception space for the first time, I genuinely gasped (and cried). The flowers were like something out of a dream—elegant, lush, romantic, and perfectly us. My bouquet was a work of art, and every detail, from the smallest boutonnière to the grand arbor, was crafted with so much love and care. It felt like magic, and so much of that was because of their artistry. What also meant the world to us was their calm, thoughtful presence during the planning process. Tonya and Lizzie made everything feel easy and joyful, even when things got hectic. They were professional, responsive, and completely dedicated to making everything perfect—and it truly was. Our guests are still talking about the flowers, and so are we. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for helping us create a day that felt like a fairy tale. If you are lucky enough to work with Abba, trust me—you are in the best hands.
Erika,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We LOVED working with you during your engagement season! You were a pleasure always. Your wedding at Covington Gardens was so beautiful and it was an honor to design for your special day! Thank you for trusting us!
Tonya
Fantastic experience: Tonya and her team at ABBA designs were an absolute dream to work with! They made the whole wedding experience a breeze and knocked it out of the park. Every detail was planned to a T and the big day went off without a hitch. People are still raving about it over half a year later. We can't thank ABBA enough for planning such a spectacular event and taking so much of the expected stress off of our families so we could enjoy our wedding journey! Highly recommend
Gina,
We love you!! Thank you for being such an amazing client! You and your family were so much fun to work with and planning on your family property was so very special!
Tonya
Fantastic experience: We used ABBA Design for our wedding, the floral arrangements were incredible, and their staff was very helpful from beginning to end!
Nathan,
Thank you so much for your review! It was truly a pleasure working with you and Cassidy! We can't wait to see the photos from your photographer. Congratulations, we wish you both the very best!
Tonya
Negative experience: Poor taste, poor service! Bad floral arrangements! Brides, please be aware of this place! Don’t just walk, run as fast as you can!
I’m sorry, we have never provided a service for you. Can you please call our studio to resolve this issue.
Negative experience: Brides, BEWARE! If you’re looking for a “wedding planner” who will take your money, fail to provide the services promised, and then attempt to gaslight you —look no further than ABBA Designs. Hiring ABBA Designs was the worst decision I made during my wedding planning process. I booked their “Complete Experience Package,” expecting expert guidance and stress-free planning. What I actually got was a mix of gaslighting, excuses, blatant incompetence and a complete lack of service. Per their own contract, I was supposed to receive: ✔ A planning checklist within two weeks. (Never happened.) ✔ A detailed timeline. (Never happened.) ✔ A high-level budget discussion. (Also never happened.) Instead of actually helping me, they made incorrect assumptions about what I wanted, failed to secure vendors, and left me scrambling to do everything myself. Then, when I called them out on their lack of service, Tonya, the owner, pulled out the ultimate excuse and implied that I’m just not “financially ready”. Excuse me?? Hilarious, considering they clung to my $1,200 deposit like their entire business depended on it. If anyone wasn’t financially prepared, it certainly wasn’t me. Then there’s the absolute clownery of how they define time. Their contract clearly states I’d receive a planning checklist WITHIN two weeks, but when called out on it they tried to claim that meant 14 business days instead of 14 calendar days/10 business days. (By their logic, a two-week job notice means you’re stuck working nearly three weeks. Someone get these people a calendar.) And the best part? After they were failing to do their job, they had the audacity to blame me for feeling stressed—because I was looking for vendors myself. (Funny, considering they repeatedly asked if I’d found a hair and makeup artist yet.) Isn't that what a wedding planner is for? But wait—there’s more! They also tried to scam me with a wildly overpriced floral quote from their own company ($16,000). Out of suspicion, I got quotes from two other florists for the exact same vision, and both quoted me less than half the price while providing a full itemized breakdown—something Tonya from ABBA Designs conveniently refused to do. Once I realized I was paying them for absolutely nothing, I canceled. Rather than taking responsibility for their lack of service, Tonya doubled down with excuses, dismissiveness, and a condescending attitude. And, of course, they refused to refund a single cent of my deposit, because in their world, failing to do your job still entitles you to payment. Bottom line: DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY. If you want a wedding planner who actually communicates, follows through, and doesn’t try to gaslight you into thinking it’s your fault they aren’t doing their job—look elsewhere.
I am writing in response to your request for a refund of the $1,200 The planning contract signed on February 19, 2025. Outlined in the contract, the deposit is explicitly nonrefundable, a condition clearly stated in two separate sections: "Retainer" and "Refund Policy." This deposit secures my company's time and services on your behalf and accounts for the work performed from the outset of our engagement.
Additionally, the contract specifies an hourly rate of $125 per hour for work performed. Prior to your termination of the contract, we had already dedicated more than 10 hours to planning your wedding, including vendor research, communication, and coordination. All work was conducted in accordance with the contract terms and the service package you selected.
You selected the “Complete Experience” Package, which outlines key planning milestones:
· Within two weeks of booking, you will receive a planning checklist summarizing important events.
· Within 60 days of booking, we will put together a general timeline outlining your wedding.
At the time of your cancellation, neither of these deadlines had passed. ABBA Design was still well within the agreed-upon timeframe to provide these deliverables.
You have cited the lack of an overall budget discussion and the absence of a payment schedule as reasons for cancellation. However, our contract explicitly states that budget discussions include a “high-level discussion of budget + monthly budget check-ins if necessary.” The phrase “if necessary” makes clear that monthly check-ins were not a required part of our agreement, but rather an optional service to be used as needed. Furthermore, the contract allowed two weeks from signing (business days) to conduct the budget discussion, and even by calendar days, you terminated our agreement before that period had expired.
Throughout our brief engagement, my team maintained regular communication via email and phone to provide progress updates and guidance on vendor selection. Despite hiring ABBA Design services to handle the details of your wedding, you continued independent vendor research, which appears to have contributed to your decision to cancel.
Given the clear contractual terms regarding the nonrefundable nature of the deposit—reiterated in both the "Retainer" and "Refund Policy" sections—and the substantial work already completed on your behalf, is why I respectfully declined your request for a refund.
Fantastic experience: Tonya and Lizzie and the whole team do amazingly gorgeous work and I would trust them to bring any of your ideas to life. I knew they crushed the aesthetic of stunning white light classic bohemian vibes, but I wanted bright jewel tones for my wedding party bouquets, boutonnières, and corsages. I inquired with Lizzie if they did those too, and they nailed my vision! The bouquets popped perfectly off of mine and the bridesmaids dresses, and I couldn’t have been happier with how they turned out!
Lauren, Thank you so much for trusting us and sharing pictures!! You are stunning and your wedding day was beautiful!!
Fantastic experience: Tonya and her team are super professional! We partnered with them to throw a "combined" rehearsal dinner/welcome party at the Barn in Reynolda Village. They were easy to work with, creative, and our guests truly admired how the room set, the flowers and the linens came together for a beautiful look and feel!
Laura - thank you so much for your review and trusting us with your event!
Fantastic experience: Lizzie and Tonya at ABBA are THE dream team!! We met with them about 7 months before my daughter’s wedding specifically for wedding planner / day of planning. After that initial meeting I learned more about what they offer in terms of design and florals. My daughter shared her vision and to say they did Magic is an understanding. I can’t say enough about their professionalism, creativity, ability to take a vision and bring it to life. On the day of i was able to focus on my daughter, the wedding and Lizzie and Tonya handled every vendor, made sure everything was timely and ran like a well oiled machine. Anyone planning a wedding should incorporate their services in their budget. It’s worth every single penny. I have another daughter and when she’s ready to tie the knot, ABBA will be my first phone call. 10/10 recommend !!
Vickie,
Thank you so much for trusting us with the wedding! It was a pleasure getting to design in such a beautiful space and incorporate so many fun details. We loved working with you and look forward to doing it again one day!!
Tonya
Fantastic experience: ABBA Designs made our wedding dreams come true! We came in with a vision and Tonya brought it to life!
Jordan - you were so much fun to work with and we loved bringing your vision to life!!
Fantastic experience: I cannot express my admiration for these women. They not only were the best planners, florist, and more, they truly became friends along the way of the planning process. The Organization, skill, And passion they put into truly show. I had so many friends and family asked me how stressed I was before the wedding, and I honestly told them I was so confident and comfortable in my team. I had zero stress. I cannot imagine a better group of people to hire for your events and planning. They truly are an amazing team and amazing people and inside and out. In terms of the flowers…WOW. I had told Tonya and Lizzie That the florals were the biggest part of my wedding vision, and they absolutely nailed it. They are the most talented women around.
Helena - thank you, thank you, thank you!!
The fact that you left this review without us requesting is such affirmation for us. We truly LOVE what we do and are so thankful for you and all our clients like you!
Tonya + Lizzie
& The ABBA Team
Fantastic experience: Abba Design, under the able leadership of Tonya and her right-hand-woman Lizzie, provided sanity-saving service for my daughter’s wedding. It is more than a highly professional service though—it is a heart felt commitment to ensuring that a day full of emotional ups and downs runs as smoothly as possible. We engaged the ABBA team to assist with everything, from invitations to linens to flowers to how the toasts would be given at the reception. My daughter’s hopes and wishes were always listened to and implemented. Tonya and Lizzie worked seamlessly with other vendors (photographers, DJ, site coordinators). Their opinions and experience gained from years guiding weddings was valuable. I could not imagine pulling off such an event without them! Large or small or anywhere in between, I highly recommend ABBA Design for your event planning and day-of coordination. And then the flowers - our guests still talk about our flowers and custom designed place card holder and Photo Booth. Words simply cannot express the beauty of Tonya’s flower art and design. She gave us exactly what we desired as far as size, look and colors. Again, I highly recommend ABBA Design!
Linda,
Thank you so much for this review. Thank you for continuing to be a client of ABBA Design. We always enjoy working with you and your family to plan events. And we LOVE that you share the same love for flowers as we do!! It makes designing for you always a pleasure.
Tonya
Fantastic experience: Tonya and the team were so helpful. They made our special day something to remember. I wasn’t quite sure what I wanted and Tonya helped me work through the logistics to make sure our day was beautiful. We had a special floral request to honor my late mother in law and Tonya and her team truly exceeding our expectations.
Taylor - you were a dream to work with from the start! I knew when you wanted to honor your late mother in law ~ you are special people! We loved creating your ceremony installation and still look at your wedding pictures! Wishing you years of happiness!!
Tonya
Fantastic experience: I thought I had given Tonya an impossible task of securing olive trees during our first florist meeting prior to my January 2024 wedding however without hesitation she navigated my dream and excelled. There is an ease and a realistic approach Tonya takes to making the most exquisite of bridal dreams come true. She took my theme of Mediterranean maximalism and filled the room with color and landscape that still fill my head as I sleep. I couldn’t recommend her and her team more.
Eliana,
Thank you so much for having such a beautiful vision and choosing us to bring it to life! The olive trees were the perfect touch and we just had to get them for you! Wishing you many many years of happiness!!
~ Tonya
Fantastic experience: The ABBA team is nothing short of STELLAR! Tonya has such a unique, creative, and striking eye for design. She can take a backdrop and find the colors and textures that just make it a truly stunning setting. We had a few changes at the venue somewhat last minute. This team adapted with incredible speed, delivering a setting that was better than anything I could have imagined. Trust Tonya, trust in this team, you will be amazed!
Marty - TYSM!! Your wedding was a dream and the ceremony was absolutely my favorite. So glad we were a part of your special day. And thank you for trusting us!!
~ Tonya
Fantastic experience: We used ABBA design for floral arrangement, and they were incredible!!!! I'm posting pictures because I just don't think words could do it justice. At times, communication was lacking and scheduling was difficult, but this is a busy time and I'm sure I had some part in that as well. It almost doesn't even matter knowing what the end result was. Tonya put together a beautiful and thoughtful inspo page, really took my vision into account and it ended perfectly. If I did it again, I'd absolutely use ABBA design again, and for SURE recommend them to anyone!!
Caroline,
Thank you so much for your review! We loved designing for you and hope to be able to help you with events in the future!
Tonya
Fantastic experience: Abba was great to work with! The flowers were STUNNING! We also used their coordination services which Lizzie was so fun and easy to work with. She helped take stress of our plate with all the vendor coordination and timeline creation.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We loved being a part of you and Nick's special day and will FOREVER remember your fabulous pink wedding!
Lizzie and Tonya
Fantastic experience: Tonya and Lizzie were great to work with!! They helped bring all of my visions to life and went above and beyond on the day of my wedding! All of the florals (many of which Tonya was able to source even though they were not in season) and extra details that were added in blew us away. Lizzie was on site during the entire evening and helped execute the night flawlessly! I could not have asked for a more perfect and cherished wedding. Tonya and her team helped turn a venue I was very familiar with into a dreamy setting that felt new and unexpected!
Caroline,
Thank you so much! It was a pleasure to work with you throughout the planning process. Creating something new in a space you were so familiar with was a joy!!
Tonya
Fantastic experience: We used ABBA Designs as both our day of coordinator and for our flowers. Lizzie was an absolute rock star, from start to finish she answered all of our questions, helped us find a last minute musician for our ceremony, and was flexible when we adjusted our vision for our arrangements. The team at ABBA ran with my idea of white flowers and greenery through out our reception space. I was floored when I saw the final product after returning from my ceremony, I cried! The flowers were beautiful, and the ambience from their design was incredible. I personally couldn't believe my wedding was that stunning. In regard to her as our day of coordinator, she truly was a godsend. I did not have to worry about anything as I was getting ready and moving locations before our ceremony. She checked in with me throughout the day and did a wonderful job setting up our reception space. Lizzie also adjusted my timeline by 20 minutes during our cocktail hour to better serve the flow of the day, she worked with the other vendors during the change and not one guest knew better. She and her team cleaned up and put leftovers, our personal decor, and other misc. items into our car before the night let out. I am thankful that I never once had to think about a small detail during the reception, getting ready, or cleaning up, I was able to focus on having fun with my guests.. Lizzie and her team do excellent work and I HIGHLY recommend hiring ABBA Design for any/all of their services.
Ashley,
Thank you so much for choosing ABBA Design! Your wedding was so beautiful and timeless! I had so much fun watching you and your guests dance the night away- I do not think I stopped smiling all night! We wish you and Patrick a lifetime of happiness!
Lizzie and the ABBA Team
Fantastic experience: I can not say enough good things about Lizzie, from ABBA design. I was a 2022 bride with Lizzie as my planner and coordinator. She was always available when I needed her, and the day would not have been what it was without her! She made sure to not make not only the brides dreams come true but also the dreams of my groom! Not only did I gain a wedding planner but also a friend! Lizzie is the best at what she does and will continue to grow with ABBA design!!!
Davey,
Thank you so much for all your kind words! You and Aaron were a dream to work with and I truly enjoyed being a part of your wedding day and getting to know you throughout the planning process! We wish the both of you a lifetime of happiness!
Lizzie and the ABBA Team
Fantastic experience: Lizzie and Tonya were so great to work with - always were two-steps ahead of us! Our daughter's wedding day was so perfect and the MOB didn't have to stress over anything - how fantastic was that! Lizzie was on site all day and made sure all things were working and on schedule. The flowers were absolutely beautiful; the decor and setup for the reception was so elegant and so perfect; the exit was executed perfectly - we couldn't have been more pleased with EVERYTHING!! Would recommend ABBA to anyone wanting stress-free wedding planning! Thank you ABBA!
Stephanie - thank you so much for the kind words! We absolutely loved working with your family! Heather and Rob seemed to have the perfect day and we’re so glad we got to be a part. Thank you for choosing us for planning and florals!! Best wishes to everyone!
Tonya & Lizzie
Fantastic experience: Wedding planning can be so overwhelming but Tonya and the ABBA team took the stress out of finding vendors and guiding us on what to focus on. She helped us handle the big and small details and was always willing to answer questions. The team at ABBA Design made our wedding day so special. Not only did we not have to worry about a thing but they brought our vision to life and then some! We had so many compliments from our guest on how smoothly our wedding day ran as well as the florals… breathtaking to say the least. We couldn’t have asked for a better team. The ABBA team works quickly and without being seen. It was actually impressive how quickly they transitioned our ceremony space into our beautiful reception area. Tonya was there for me as a bride the day of, but allowed us to just have our day without being bothered by anyone or anything. I really can’t say enough!
Meg,
Thank you so much for the kind words, but most of all thank you for choosing us to work with!! We loved working with you and your family during this special time of your lives. We can't wait to see all the future holds for you and Corey.
Best Wishes
Tonya and The ABBA Team
Negative experience: My experience with ABBA as my planners and florists was not the best. My day of coordinator and head planner, Lizzie, was really great with answering my questions and really stepping up the 3 weeks leading up to the wedding. She as an individual was great to work with! As a florist, the bouquets were beautiful but did not match the description and imagery we have discussed in our meetings and what I was expecting based on those meetings. The quality of all the wrist and jacket flowers was very low and did not even make it through pictures. The company as a whole needs to work on communication routes and clearly outlining timelines, details, and the amount of hours of help you will receive from them in the contracts. The amount of time I was able to communicate with them and ask questions leading up to my wedding was not clearly stated in my package contract. Based on the provided package documentation and signed contracts, I was under the impression that I was able to communicate with them by email for vendor suggestions and questions. About 6 months out for the wedding the owner told me that I had used up my amount of time and to not reach out for anything else until the 8 week appointment before my wedding. She then requested that I up my package to the full time planning if I did need more assistance or questions answered before then. One-on-one I had a great experience with our day of coordinator. I do wish ABBA all the best and success! But now understanding the stress of being a bride planning a wedding and working full time… I’d suggest looking for another vendor or any wedding planning for florals.
Kelsey,
Thank you for the feed back. I am very sorry you didn't have a good experience with me, as the owner, I really want every bride to feel special, heard and confident in ABBA Design for both planning as well as florals - it is rare we get a bad review and so I really take this to heart and will reflect on what I can learn from this to make sure we don't have another bride that feels this way.
Lizzie said you were thrilled with the flowers - I am sorry to learn otherwise here.
Yes, it is very stressful planning a wedding and our objective is to alleviate that for our clients.
I am glad you had a great experience with Lizzie - she is great!
I wish you the very best!!
Tonya
Owner/Lead Designer
Fantastic experience: ABBA Designs did an incredible job on the wedding & reception flowers! Absolutely stunning! Thank you Lizzie for all your help & attention to make sure the flowers & wedding venue were breath taking!! Will call you again!!!! ❤️
Michele,
Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of such a special time. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to continuing our relationship through other events!
Tonya and Lizzie
Fantastic experience: We worked with ABBA Design for our wedding. They were our day-of coordinators, florists, and decorators too. They can do it all! We didn't have to lift a finger on our big day, all we had to to was show up and the rest was taken care of. When we stepped into the reception venue we were in awe of how they had transformed it to match our vision. It was the perfect day, thanks to them.
Thank y’all so much!! We had so much fun executing your vision. Thanks again for choosing us!!
Fantastic experience: Lizzie and Tonya at ABBA design were so pleasant to work with. They were kind and professional. The floral arrangements exceeded my expectations! They were stunning!! I also love how they took the time to help set them all up at the reception site. I knew they would make my wedding beautiful and they did not disappoint!!!
Thank you so much Katie!! You had such a fun reception ~ thank you for choosing us and the creative freedom you allowed us to have!
Tonya & Lizzie
Fantastic experience: Lizzie and the entire ABBA team were incredible. The day went off seamlessly, even though it started raining right when the ceremony was supposed to start. Lizzie was so great in helping to offer solutions and we ended up switching cocktail hour with the ceremony time, so it all worked out well. Lizzie carried so much of the weight of the day and helped provide a stress-free day, where I could just enjoy the process and soak in our wedding day. If you’re considering having a day of coordinator, I can speak from experience and highly recommend hiring ABBA!
Shelby, thank you so much for your kind words! You and Dylan were a dream to work with and we had so much fun designing your florals! There were so many times throughout the week prior where we told ourselves how beautiful your color pallet was! We wish you the very best,
The ABBA Design Team
Fantastic experience: ABBA Design made planning for our wedding day simple and spectacular. Lizzie and Tonya were attentive to our needs and crafted the perfect vision for our wedding ceremony and reception. The day went on without a hitch and our guests kept commenting on how beautiful our flower arrangements were throughout the venue. If you’re planning a wedding or other event - definitely consider booking with ABBA! They communicate thoroughly throughout the process and ensure you know exactly what is going on and what you can expect with your decorations!
Thomas - thank you so much! It was so much fun designing for you and Gerardo! Your ceremony arbor is one of our most unique designs at Summerfield Farms. We wish you too the very best!!
Fantastic experience: ABBA exceeded our expectations! The floral arrangements were absolutely stunning and guests are still talking about them! They were a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond to ensure we had the wedding of our dreams. Highly recommend ABBA Design!
Marissa,
Thank you so much!! We LOVED creating your florals for your beautiful wedding at Summerfield Farms. Blue and white is always a classic and we loved bringing your vision to life! Thank you for choosing us!!
Fantastic experience: Hands down best planners around!!! Couldn’t have done it without the abba team. Run don’t walk when contemplating a planner, especially this crew! From day one of planning to the actual wedding day it wouldn’t have been possible without Lizzie and Tonya. They were all in and made our day the best ever. Any event in the future we will be using their services :-)! They were apart of the family by the end of planning!! Thanks so much
Sarah - you and Jesse were a dream!! We loved every aspect of working for y'all! From the full planning service, curating your wedding design, the florals and all those special details - y'all are part of the ABBA family now!! Congratulations to you both!!
Fantastic experience: ABBA is hands down absolutely the best around. She rolled with every change with a great attitude. She is responsive and so talented. I worked mainly with Tonya and Lizzy and I honestly can’t say enough great things about them and the vendors they recommend! Not only did they plan my entire wedding but they also put together the most beautiful florals I’ve ever seen. I’ll never be able to go to another wedding without thinking mine was the BEST!
Kelley, Thank you soo much!! What a beautiful day for you and Jesse. Thank you for trusting us to bring your vision to life - your reception design is one of our favorites! Congratulations and best wishes always!!
Fantastic experience: This is your sign GO WITH Abba Design , she is amazing her team is wonderful. From the wedding planning to the floral design to putting my entire wedding design together to the day of the wedding, everything was so perfect. I definitely couldn’t have done it without Abba design
Beatriz,
Thank you so much! We had such a great time working with you! We loved your floral design ~ thank you for trusting ABBA !
Fantastic experience: Abba Design did a phenomenal job for my couple Sarabeth and Nick! Their wedding was in August 2017 and everything looked perfect. You can see some of the work they did for this wedding in these photos by Jessica Hyatt Photography. They also provided the linen and dinnerware rentals for this event. They dropped off and picked up the rentals on the day of the event and made it that much easier for my self as the planner and for my couple. It was a pleasure to work with them. I highly recommend using this company for your florals and rentals.
Fantastic experience: ABBA does a fantastic job!!! I’ve ordered for special occasions to just random arrangements and they always provide beautiful flowers in a timely manner. My go to for arrangements!! Tonya and her team are great
Fantastic experience: I go to ABBA for all my random gifts for people. Recently I did their monthly flowers as a gift and it’s been perfect every time. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: AMAZING!!! We are so happy to have found Abba Design and Tonya. When my wife and I started planning our wedding, we were very lost in the process of where and what and how. We needed some guidance since we had never been a part of wedding planning before. We made a couple errors along the way in the beginning but our BEST choice by far was choosing to work with ABBA. We walked in the first day and after we walked out, the weight was starting to lift from our shoulders. Tonya took our hands and guided us through the process flawlessly. We loved her work and decided that a true artist should have the freedom to work their craft and so we let her aid us in our selections. We are so glad that we did because the final product was something that has been spoken of by friends and family since our big day. "The prettiest Wedding" , "Beautiful in every way", and "Breathtaking" were just a few of the MANY compliments that we received from people that were in attendance. Since our wedding, Tonya has been like a close friend, we have used her for floral arrangements and other services since our Wedding Day and she is an all around wonderful person with a team and is dedicated just as much as she is. Thank you Tonya and Team for all that you did and have done for us. You have a customer for life. -The Cockerham's
Fantastic experience: ABBA Design did our wedding last year and it was the most magical day ever. I didn't even have to see examples, I trusted Tonya completely and I was right to do so! Since then, I have used her to decorate for my baby gender reveal, and deliver flowers for those I have been need...she has never disappointed...I will forever be grateful for her and could not recommend her enough!!!!
Fantastic experience: Tanya is fantastic to work with, very knowledgeable, creative and just an overall great person. She will make your event AMAZING!
Fantastic experience: I ordered a flower bouquet for my wife for Valentines Day. Abba Design put together a beautiful arrangement and hand delivered them to the house. All contact I’ve had with Abba Design has been an excellent experience! The owner, Tonya and her team do an outstanding job all the way around. I would highly recommend Abba Design to anyone!!!
Fantastic experience: Abba helps me keep all the people in my life happy! They have a simple ordering process and very efficient delivery! The products are beautiful to say the least.
Fantastic experience: I have used Abba for home arrangements, gifts for special friends and family, and entertaining. Their designs always exceed expectations! Great resource in Greensboro.
Fantastic experience: Tonya is incredibly professional and ensures that she hits the mark each and every time. She also reaches out to ensure I don’t miss any “key” dates for which flowers are necessary (valentines, birthdays, anniversaries, etc) I have seen her work for drop offs, weddings, centerpieces, birthday parties, events and corporate events. They are prompt, professional and extremely personable and reasonably priced.
Fantastic experience: There is no one better than Tonia in the floral, design, wedding planning, coordinating, you name it industry! We have used ABBA many times for a numerous of things and every. single. time. I am SHOOK by how beautiful her work is. We love this company and the high quality product and service they provide!
Fantastic experience: Tonya and her team will be trusted for life! The way my wedding vision came to life in the midst of Covid was more than anything I could've asked for. Tonya goes out of her way to always make her clients happy and can be trusted for anything from a simple birthday porch arrangement to a detail oriented 350 person wedding. We couldn't imagine using anyone other than ABBA for all of our event and floral needs.
Negative experience: Bad taste and ugly flowers. Look elsewhere.
Positive experience: *updated review* We decided to use Abba designs for a birthday porch delivery. The ordering system leaves a lot to be desired, with not very clear engagement on what you are wanting and expecting through the service. The flowers themselves were the appropriate amount of flowers but the composition was not what I wanted. They looked very haphazardly arranged and we were expecting something more for $60. With that being said, if you are looking for a more “from the garden” style arrangement, this may be the right choice for you. I wouldn’t use this again for a floral arrangement delivery, but I can’t speak at all to their weddings/events side of things, just to their porch delivery service. Also, my original review had a complaint about tagging on instagram - they DID actually tag us, but it didn’t attach correctly, which was the fault of instagram, not this company. It’s also worth noting that after I complained, I did receive good follow-up communication from the owner, which is always appreciated.
Fantastic experience: I was excited to work with ABBA Designs after seeing her work at another wedding. She listened to my ideas for my wedding day and created a vision that was beyond my wildest dreams. Everyone was blown away by how Tonya and her team transformed the ceremony and reception space. Her amazing work speaks for itself, but she is also professional and wonderful to work with! There was no detail overlooked and I loved that she offered so much more than just florals. As a wedding professional myself, I will be recommending ABBA Designs to ALL of my brides!
Fantastic experience: I worked with ABBA at a wedding last night. Coming from New York, I’ve noticed it is hard to find good wedding planners in the Carolinas. Tonya was awesome to work with! She was on top of everything and made sure the night went perfectly!
Fantastic experience: I've always had a great experience with the ABBA team. I am very impressed by how genuine the owner is. She has always been kind and worked with me on any project I've had.
Fantastic experience: Exquisite taste, attention to detail.
Fantastic experience: Tonya was one of the most beneficial decisions we made for our wedding! Her attention to detail, resources, relationships with other vendors, and organizational skills made our wedding so memorable! In particular the floral arrangement and table scapes showcase her talent as a floral designer. She was always very quick to respond at anytime to our questions (yes, even midnight the night before the wedding to find a fill in hair stylist) and she was always pleasant. Having her on board for the wedding planning process really helped bring our vision to life. We highly recommend her for your wedding/event planning and floral needs! Our experience was exceptional!
Fantastic experience: The owner, Tonya, is a true artist that creates unique stunning flower designs. Each event is custom designed. I have witnessed many of her artistic creations at various events. Every event is executed professionally. She is an expert and her talent is unique to Greensboro. We are lucky to have ABBA Designs in town!
Fantastic experience: Wonderfully talented designer!
Fantastic experience: Thank you for your care and attention to detail with the wedding design for my daughter, Leah. The floral arrangements were stunning and exactly what we envisioned. Thank you for sharing your talent and providing beautiful memories, Tonya.
Fantastic experience: I have had the opportunity to work with ABBA Design numerous times over the past year. Allowing her to design events from start to finish ensures that you will get to experience your event rather than worry with the details of the planning, vendor coordination and execution. It also ensures that every event (wedding, corporate event, gala, birthday party, rehearsal dinner, baby shower, bridal shower, etc...) will be beautifully decorated with her stunning floral designs.
Negative experience: My fiancé recently inquired about booking to do arrangements and when she described what she invisioned for her floral needs, she was told by the lady that “it sounded like something she should do herself” Not really sure what kind of business immediately rejects a potential customer, but we’ll be more than glad to spend our money somewhere else. Would definitely not want to work with someone who comes off as that snobby right off the bat.
