Our daughters wedding was at the Inn at Bay Harbor over Labor day weekend and we couldn’t have asked for a better day and venue. We started the process with Shelia and Carly at Tableaux Events 11 months in advanced and they were very structured in terms of what needed to be accomplished each month, extremely helpful with offering options on vendors and had worked very closely with the Inn on several weddings. The relationship that they have established with the Inn was a real assets to getting things accomplished. They were able to capture our daughters vision into a design package for the wedding which was a perfect match. I can’t imagine getting through the last couple of days without them. They were extremely efficient and always pleasant. A big thank you to them.

Connecting with Karly and hiring her for our event was one of the BEST DECISIONS we made! She was amazing and easy to communicate with, was patient, full of ideas and passionate about her job. Coordinating a wedding, especially now, is challenging, but Karly made our day/evening better than I could have imaged. We had a few unexpected weather events and Karly was literally on it. She went above and beyond for my wife and I and we can' thank her enough. She made our wedding magical. She is worth every penny. We received compliment after compliment about her work and how incredible her work was. Don't hesitate to hire Karly and her team! She is the best of the best of the best! Leighanne & Samatha

Sheila, Karly and Madison were a delight to work with and really helped to make our vision a reality!! As my son and his finacee live in Colorado and I live in Michigan, Tableau really kept us on track for the year long planning. The weekly calls towards the end really helped to relieve much of the stress that invariably creeps in!! Their decor items were so cool and made the atmosphere unique and inviting. Karly was a life saver in securing extra transportation for our guests following the reception. there is no Uber here and it is so important that people get safely back to their hotels. I highly recommend Tableau Events!!

I can't imagine a wedding without Tableau Events! Sheila was so in sync with my daughter in her vision for her wedding. She seemed to intuitively know things she would like. Sheila had or knew where to find everything from the perfect pergola for the ceremony to lovely tableware. The suggestions she and Carly gave as far as decor, time line, vendors, and everything else were invaluable. On the day of the wedding Carly was everywhere making sure everything went as planned and smoothing out any bumps that came up. She had a magical bag that seemed to have anything we needed in it. They were easily the best decision we made for the wedding because then they made everything else fall into place in a low stress, fun way! They care about the bride and groom like family and you will miss them after the wedding!

We love love Tableau Events! The team at Tableau Events was an absolute dream to work with, and made our wedding day more spectacular than we could have ever imagined! Sheila is so talented, and her vision and creativity are truly exceptional. She created an event that was visually stunning, and included so many personal touches that truly reflected who we are as a couple which made our wedding even more special and memorable. Our guests could not stop raving about every little detail! Carly was amazing to work with on month of planning, and she is so talented and dedicated! She was attentive, organized, and thoughtful. No detail was forgotten, and it meant so much to us that our family and friends could relax the day of our wedding because Carly had every detail covered. Our families adored her! We recommend Tableau Events to anyone planning a wedding, or event! They are truly the best of the best!!!

Tableau Events provides a humble, creative, inspirational and professional touch to all their events and designs. I have worked with them for a number of events and am confident in recommending their creative services - especially for those that wish to inspire and embrace a look, a feeling or a story! Their dedication is genuine. From the brainstorming & designing to execution, they will not disappoint!

Big kudos to Carly and Sheila for helping us put on the most amazing wedding. Sheila helped us from the very beginning with every little detail of the event. We wanted to create a vision of classic elegance and she delivered! The linens, lounge areas, cocktail hour details, customized monogram on everything… are just a few details that really made the difference to create such a fun atmosphere for our guests. Carly was a huge help during the month of our wedding, scheduling weekly calls to keep everyone and everything on track. The countless hours these ladies spent for us made our day so special and I highly recommend stopping by their new storefront in Petoskey to check them out! Thank you so much Sheila and Carly!

Very few places offer a bespoke experience from start to finish like Tableau offers. Sheila + her team are always a dream to work with. Creative, innovative and most of all thoughtful. They are champions at many things including: *Superior style selections available. *Speed of delivery and overall process. *Sophisticated results and follow through.

Sheila and her team are amazing! The day couldn't have gone more perfect. The decor was everything I imagined and more. We received so many compliments from the guests! I loved seeing the design come to life and the flowers were just amazing. Sheila really made my vision come to life. Additionally, on the day of the wedding I didn't have to worry about thing. I felt so relaxed and I was able to enjoy every minute of my wedding.

If you need a wedding designer/coordinator, I highly recommend Tableau Events! Sheila is absolutely amazing. I used Tableau Events for my wedding papery (Wedding Announcements, Wedding invitations, custom cocktail napkins, thank you cards, wedding programs, menus, etc), the entire wedding design, and day of coordination June 2015 at the Inn at Bay Harbor. Sheila coordinated with all of my vendors for the wedding design. My wedding decorations were absolutely beautiful! I could not have planned my wedding without her; in fact, if I didn’t have her I probably would have had an empty room! She literally planned and organized every detail of my entire wedding. She is very creative, and has an eye for elegance. Christianna helped with the day of coordination, she did an amazing job!! She went above and beyond to make sure everything went flawlessly, and it did. I could really go on for pages and rave about these two. I am so grateful I had them a part of my special day, and I rea... Read morelly mean it when I say I could not have planned my beautiful wedding without them. They were my sanity in an incredible stressful process. I have been told by so many friends that were brides, “enjoy your day, it goes by so fast” and they regret they did not get to spend enough time enjoying themselves and everything they planned; I can honestly say that I am a bride who enjoyed EVERY moment of my wedding, I took everything in, and I would change NOTHING about my wedding day. Thank you Sheila and Christianna for making my dream wedding come true!!!!

I will be perfectly honest, I wavered when thinking about the cost to hire an event designer. I went through the same list of questions I'm sure everyone does.. "Do I really need this?" "Can I do this on my own?" "Does special lighting and plate charges really make that much of a difference?" Let me just stop right there.. the answer to all of these questions and more is: YES, YES and triple YES! I was absolutely floored when I walked into each room Tableau created. We were entertaining guests with backgrounds that ranged from blue collar to wealthy (folks who attend weddings at places like the Ritz Carlton on a regular basis) and I am not exaggerating when I tell you that guests from both ends of the spectrum came up to tell us that it was the nicest wedding they had ever been to. To be honest, it was the nicest wedding we'd ever been to, as well. The experience Tableau created for our wedding was worth every last penny spent. We did not have a wedding planner, and to be h... Read moreonest, with this team, you probably don't need one. I would recommend Sheila and the entire team at Tableau to anyone. This vendor is a wedding MUST!

It would be an understatement to say that Sheila didn't disappoint us on our wedding day. She completely wowed us, and we couldn't have been happier to have worked with her, and gotten to know her. Sheila is the most organized and thoughtful person I have ever worked with. No detail goes unnoticed. Her creativity is outstanding, and she leaves as much room as you want for your personal input and ideas. My wedding day dreams literally wouldn't have been possible without her. She took care of all of our papery, including invites, save the dates, menus, name cards, and signage. She designed our dining space, and all outdoor and indoor entertainment spaces. She would ask me what colors, patterns, fabrics, etc I liked and the next thing I knew she had a full blueprint emailed to me so my husband and I could look at everything together. Our reception took place on an island, so logistics got complicated when it came to transporting our decor elements. From the beginning, I never had to worry... Read more. Sheila was in contact with everyone and organized everything on our behalf. Even in the final moments before the wedding, she was 100% focused and devoted to making sure everything was not just ready and in place, but perfect. I would work with Sheila again and again if I could do it all over. It was the best decision we made throughout our planning process.

I was completely speechless the moment I walked into our venue! Every single detail was thought out and perfectly executed. I used Sheila and the Tableau team for Event Design and Month-of Coordination. Beyond the stunning wedding that they pulled together, having Karly keep me sane in the weeks leading up to our wedding, and the day of, was invaluable. Everything went off without a hitch! It was truly incredible to see all of my random ideas and pins come together and there is no way I would have been able to do it on my own. Sheila truly thinks of every single detail and is so thoughtful of the guest experience. Wedding planning can be so fun, but it can also be stressful, just know, in the end, if you hire Sheila, you will be 100% delighted with the outcome!

Tableau pulled off the wedding of our dreams at the Inn at Bay Harbor in Northern Michigan. This was a destination wedding as my (now) husband and I live in LA so we needed a planner who would meet with vendors, keep us informed, and project manage all the moving pieces. Not only was it great to work with Karly to find the vendors that best fit us in the area but also throughout the year of planning/organizing and the day of. I would recommend Karly & the team at Tableau for all brides those who need full wedding planning support a year out to those who need the month of coordination.
