Customer Feedback

"I found Laurie while doing a google search as I was looking for someone who could help my husband and I revitalize our garden. I didn't know her or know anyone that had previously worked with her, but when she came for a site visit, I just knew that she'd be perfect! She has the experience and the design creativity to come up with a beautiful landscaping plan. When it comes to the intangibles--integrity, honesty, strong work ethic, professionalism--I have very high standards, and these are Laurie's strengths!"

Outdoor living space is a big part of the investment that you make  in your home. Professional garden design is a way to maximize your enjoyment of your property and to protect your investment.

Studies consistently show landscaping has one of the highest rates of return on investment of all home improvement projects.

Having a professional design will save hundreds if not thousands of dollars. Our design plans can be given to your contractor for installation, or we can recommend a contractor to assist you. DIY design plans and DIY Consulting Reports are also available.


Your Choice of Services


Initial Consultation

Garden design and consulting services begin with the initial consultation.

Typically one to two hours, the initial consultation is conducted on your property and includes a site assessment, review of your Client Questionnaire, on-site sketch of recommendations after deciding upon project objectives (if appropriate), and will provide you with immediate ideas and recommendations, solutions and resources for accomplishing your goals.

Each project is carefully defined with you as to the degree and type of help needed during the Initial Consultation. Referrals to various resources are also available, depending on your individual needs.

Custom CAD Plans

You will receive a full set of professionally designed black and white or color plans or storyboards that you can give to your landscape contractor for installation. Plans typically include photos of recommended plants, site amenities, hardscape materials, lighting and irrigation plans to help you visualize what your new garden will look like. If you need help connecting with a reputable landscape contractor, I would be happy to arrange  it.

Hourly Consulting
This service is great if you do not want or need a full set of  plans, but if you do need more information than can be provided in the Initial Consultation.

You choose the elements for the report; examples include (but are not limited to) photos, accessories, plant lists, instructions for the DIY gardener, soil restoration and preparation recipes, building materials recommendations, depending on your priorities, and I will create it.

Your custom report will address your specific priorities in the amount of time agreed upon. The report then becomes your blueprint for your garden remodel.

Soil Restoration Services
If you are concerned about the environmental damage caused by inorganic garden chemicals; fertilizers, fungicides, and pesticides and are looking for an eco-friendly alternative, this service is for you.  Using high quality Actively Aerated Compost Tea (AACT), and other natural ingredients, soil fertility is restored to naturally increase water holding capacity, disease resistance and reduce the need for inorganic chemical products.

You can apply the treatments yourself with guidance from your Consulting Report or you can schedule the applications through us.

Personal Shopper Service

Hate to shop? Have no idea what you're looking for, or where to get high quality, high value products at affordable prices? Let us source your design/build elements for you.

From plants to lighting, water features to outdoor kitchens, fireplaces,  furniture, pergolas, statuary, heaters and spas, Seasonal Celebrations has the resources and experience to find just the right items to give your garden that elusive "WOW" factor. We also offer pick up and delivery services for your convenience!

Project Management

Time and materials consulting and project management services are available to you on an hourly or contract basis to assist you through the installation process and into ongoing maintenance. We will work with the landscape contractor of your choice or provide recommendations as needed to ensure your project remains on track and is installed in keeping with the spirit and intention of the design. This is of particular importance if substitutions of  plants and other materials need to be made during installation.

Post Installation Consulting
Periodic consulting to help maintain your investment in the garden.
