Welcome
My name is Iris Müller-Elmau
I am a Weddingplanner from Düsseldorf With a creative heart, a keen sense of aesthetics, and over 20 years of professional experience as an art director in the national and international design industry, my career has led me from the world of graphic design to the world of weddings – a place where emotions, style, and personality merge into unforgettable moments. I possess a strong instinct for aesthetics as well as for cohesive, holistic design. … and color concepts. With passion, I dedicate myself to creating unique experiences that highlight a couple’s special day in all its beauty and bring emotions to life on an exclusive level. I develop custom, celebratory overall concepts tailored to the couple and their guests, creating an unforgettable atmosphere – a world of their own. …that will remain in the memories of the bride and groom and their guests.
