My experience with Cate and Designs by Cate was absolutely nothing short of spectacular! Cate was so easy to work with and the final results were beyond my expectations! Pricing is extremely reasonable and she specializes in bringing vision to reality!

Cate, I wanted to send you a heartfelt thank you for all of the hard work and care that you put into our wedding, that was held this June at the Stratford Festival Theatre. We absolutely loved the hanging greenery chandlers, cafe lighting, the candles coming down the winding staircase and the greenery hoops hanging on the backdrop. Working with you to bring this vision to life was a great experience, and I would recommend you to any of our friends who are getting married in town.

Cate created the “piece de resistance” for our son and daughter-in-law’s wedding at Three Bridges in St Jacobs. It was an outdoor wedding and she covered an iron arbor with the most exquisite, gorgeous creation of roses, vines, eucalyptus- it was the focal point were guests entered – everyone felt they were entering a fairy tale! Her artistic design and skill is second to none, her prices are so reasonable and service is delivered with a smile. Can’t say enough good things about her craftsmanship and personality!
