Our story

Brand story

What started over 70 years ago as a specialist in decoration with greenery and flowers, has grown and blossomed into trendsetting event styling. The Van der Maarel Eventstyling team creates the right ambiance for any event, in all shapes and sizes. With attention to your preferences and needs and our knowledge of materials, furniture and possibilities, we'll turn your event into a full-on experience.

To do that, we like to be inspired by ground-breaking concepts. Why follow trends if you can be the one to set them? What we see at international conventions, we translate to any event location you can think of. Thanks to our modern vision and the craftsmanship of our furniture makers, furniture from our own product range is given a new lease of life. By looking for inspiration in unexpected places, we will exceed your expectations. Daring and pure, and always the exact fit for the assignment.

Expertise and experience to build on

We use everything we've learned over the past decades in creating a custom concept. We have made mistakes and celebrated successes. We know what we're talking about, what works, and even more importantly, what doesn't. We will surprise you with unique event styling, but make sure you don't get any unwanted surprises. Clear communication and a team you can count on. Because while you're busy working on the bigger picture, we pay attention to the smallest details. Which actually doesn't always mean a large price tag. By relying on experience and knowledge, we keep the costs low.

Passion makes anything possible

Passion for what we do has been indispensable for all these years. The intrinsic motivation to create something beautiful for our clients. Something that goes beyond identifying and understanding trends. It's about the right commitment, which is different for every location, every concept or every client. That is why our focus goes beyond materials alone; we work with people and their wishes. That is how we challenge ourselves and our industry, and how we continue to innovate.

You want to feel the creativity

We know the events business like the back of our hand, but we still see a world of possibilities. Though we still like to stay down to earth in our approach. Close to what feels right. For you, for us. As the pioneer in event styling in the Netherlands, we believe you can only create the right ambiance if you've felt it yourself. And that is what we do with every concept. Every design. Every event. We feel it. By embracing every challenge, we discover new opportunities. From an intimate wedding to a large scale promo event; with the right styling, we turn any event into an experience. Creativity is in our blood. If it doesn't exist yet, we create it. We call that creating a sensational ambiance. Van der Maarel is here to create. We're here for you.
