Vendor Spotlight: Theresa Wright of DCor by T

4/14/2021

0 Comments

 
Welcome to a new series on the Eventsunleashed.com blog, where we’ll highlight some of our absolute favorite contractors, vendors, and event professionals. Learn more about our business and the partnerships key to creating consistently robust event experiences. You’ll meet the decorators, photographers, videographers, bakers, and more essential to a perfect event production.

Since we started Events Unleashed, we’ve made no bones about the fact we eat, sleep, and breathe weddings and decor. There’s nothing quite like helping someone take their vision from a germ of an idea to a full-blown dazzling display. 
​

To achieve these winning aesthetics, we’re always looking for the best florists in and around Austin to create strong partnerships. One of those masters of decor is Theresa Wright, owner of D’Cor by T, whose unique sense of decoration has bedazzled many Events Unleashed-produced weddings.

While Theresa’s work keeps her busy, she was gracious enough to carve out some time to answer some questions about her passion for flowers, some of her most memorable installations, and some advice for recently engaged couples.

Events Unleashed:
When did you realize flowers were something you wanted to work with as a career?
Theresa:
It became clear to me after helping a friend decorate her new house with flower designs throughout. Following that she decided to get married and the sky was the limit. It was both a scary and fun time. It turned out beautiful and some of her guests started contacting me for various events.

Do you have any role models in the floral industry? Who are they?
My long time role model/mentor, Kim, passed away 2 years ago. She was absolutely fabulous and polished in the area of floral design. I am grateful for her guidance and encouragement with helping me develop my flora skills/talents. I can still hear her voice saying, “let’s try placing these stems over here”.

What are your favorite types of floral designs to create?
My favorite floral styles include garden designs and art form designs that make bold statements.


Can you tell us about some of your favorite projects over the years?
I am extremely proud to have had the honor of being chosen to assist with decorating the White House for Christmas under the Obama administration in 2010 and 2014 and a special project in 2012. There was an abundance of fresh Christmas greens and natural designs that made bold statements, including the fresh trees. What an honor to serve my country by helping to decorate “the People's House” for Christmas. I’ll always cherish those memories.

What are three things you wished clients came prepared with when meeting for a consultation?
When clients come to meet with me, I wish they came prepared with an open mind if they don’t have a vision, realistic budget and patience.

Finally, what advice would you give to recently engaged couples thinking about their floral options?

1. Save, save, and save for your wedding. 
2. Decide on a vision for your wedding. 
3. Create a “Vision Board” displaying items for the wedding party, ceremony and reception. 
4. Once you have decided what you want, STOP looking for and collecting pictures. 
5. Partner with a buddy or close friend, who is not a part of the wedding, to assist you with staying on budget. 
6. Sign contracts with reputable vendors whom you feel comfortable with. 
7. Make sure the photographer takes pictures of the ceremony and reception sites so that you can see the beauty of your flowers and decorations prior to the event.
