Our Story
Jelena Matekalo started sewing to fill her free time, after her five daughters grew up and left home.
Making chair covers, sashes and table cloths to help her friends create beautiful parties and events. Decorations by Jelena has grown from a hobby into a business. People appreciated her sewing skill, her creativity and also her ability to take the stress out of their events.
Over the years Jelena’s daughters have jumped on board and helped her create one of the most trusted, truly family owned and operated, event decorating businesses in Sydney.
What We Do
The Passion, Skills and Quality.
At Decorations by Jelena no project is “just another job”. Our clients are often surprised by the fact that we’re as excited about the event as they are. There’s nothing more rewarding than the happiness and satisfaction we see on a face of a bride as she sneaks a look at the room we styled to see it before everyone else does.
To create a style that reflects your personality or theme and bring your vision to life we need more than creativity and dedication. Our process includes sourcing, execution, set up and take down.
Whether you want to create a perfect atmosphere for you wedding, or a style that reflects your branding during a corporate event. Decorations by Jelena’s team have the skills and resources to do that smoothly and effectively.
The quality of our work shows in the photos that we and our clients have captured over the years. If you’d like to see the events we’ve styled, from birthdays and weddings, to conferences and awards banquets, check the photos on our “Gallery” page.
It’s all in the details.
Attention to detail skills are important in businesses and in professional and personal life. In our business they’re essential.
No detail is too small. From experience, we know, that sometimes a seemingly unimportant little thing can make a huge difference.
We can create any set up from romantic and exotic to professional and classy. Evoking a particular style requires attention to detail – we take a great care in providing the best that we can to suit the brief and budget.
What We Do
Our clients want one-of-a-kind ideas that will make their weddings or special event look and feel different from others they’ve attended. This suits our philosophy that every story is different and we want to help our clients tell theirs.
Our clients are provided different options to make creating a beautiful setting for their event as easy as possible. We also keep in contact with them every step of the way. Clients and customers feel reassured knowing they’re in good hands and can relax and leave the how-to to us.
