We celebrated my daughter's wedding last night at the AMP in North Bethesda, Maryland. Nar, Sugar, and their team exceeded our expectation with general planning, floral arrangements, work with vendors, and overall professionalism. If you are looking for help with event planning you will not find better people to work with. Thank you from the Brasington, Dueweke, and Bartow families.
In early 2016 I was referred to Sugar Taylor of Taylor and Hov to discuss a huge branding overhaul of a local staple family bakery business that has been in the DC area for over 25 years. I had met Sugar and her partner Nar at a bridal event previously and was extremely impressed with how unique and creative all of their work was. When I found out that they also did branding, I knew there was certainly an opportunity to work together. I'm typically very particular with who I work with, especially when it's part of a $2M+ investment on opening a new location in Tysons, VA and moving our Gaithersburg location to a larger space. The task at hand was a hybrid of total branding overhaul, interior design and furniture/fixture sourcing, and packaging program design. This was no easy task and I was almost sure that no one would be able to get to the finish line without major hiccups in the mix. Not the case with Sugar. Being a 3rd generation business owner, it was my goal to capture what our brand and mission was all about. We're a family operation that was growing fast and needed to modernize without losing our roots and history. Sugar not only did our logo and branding, but redesigned our entire packaging program; From sandwich wraps, to menus, to box designs and shopping bags. Everything was meticulously designed with careful thought and attention to every detail. In addition to our brand design, we had Sugar design our entire storefront - literally the entire thing. She literally designed every single aspect of our space from colors, to patterns, to counter tops, ceiling, custom equipment customizations, and beyond. I tend to not be a micro manager and rather allow a creative to really dig deep to find a very practical yet unique way to portray my brand - after all, thats what you hire them and pay them for. Hours and hours of planning and attention went into every aspect of our design and build, and we could not be happier with our decision to chose Sugar as our creative director. Her passion and decisiveness gave me a peace of mind I am confident is not easy to find in such a cut throat industry. I can usually find a number of items to pick out that could be redone or improved upon, but with Sugar, I can honestly say that her interpretation of what we were looking for was dead on. In fact, we have had so many compliments of our space that I can honestly say that it alone generates business - if you don't believe me take a quick look on social media @classicbakeryinc and see for yourself. Bottom line - If you're looking for someone to take your brand, space, or company image to the next level, look no further. Ask for Sugar and let her build your company's facade in a way where you could never imagine. Easily the best investment I've ever made. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
Sugar has done numerous design projects for us, including our custom laser cut wedding invitations that she hand painted! She is a creative genius and one of the most awesome people I know. 5 stars isn't enough.
