We had a great time at Tradewinds Carmel and Romantic Room Designs made the difference. The look of surprise on her face when she saw the layout in the room was priceless. I don't know who enjoyed it more. The bonfire setup was perfect and another nice surprise was how comfortable we both were even in the chilly weather. RomanticRoomDesigns.com is a must do for anyone in the mood. Tradewinds staff were wonderful and everything went better than planned, we will surely be back.
Thank you very much for a wonderful getaway. We needed it.

Our anniversary getaway was memorable in and of itself, but I cannot put into words the reaction I had when I walked into our hotel room and saw the transformation before me! I was completely blown away and surprised when I saw what had been done; details like the candles and chocolate kisses, not to mention the delicious chocolate chip cookies truly put our weekend over the edge and will make it one I won't soon forget!

Once again we had a great time staying at La Playa Hotel. This trip was to celebrate my wifes 40th birthday. So I decided to call Brian with Romantic Room Designs to have him work his magic. Brian and I arranged to have the room decorated while my wife and I were out to dinner. When we got back to the room i had only opened the door about 6 inches before she noticed the flickering votive candles at which point her emotions let loose. Brian did a great job making sure it would be a 40th she'd never forget. I just want to say thanks to both La Playa and Brian with Romantic Room Designs for helping make a special day even better.

"Most memorable moment of my life and all made possible with the help of Heidi and her Husband Brian. Everything flowed great, literally no worrying at all about the set up and how it was all going to happen. Well worth the money!!!!! I highly encourage letting Heidi from Creative Carmel Photography capture every moment from when you arrive to when you leave (from the proposal bonfire). With her great pictures I can now relive the moment and can share them with our friends and families.....something never to be forgotten!"

Romance Inside A Box Order
My best friend was speechless when we finally got to the bonfire. He tried to read the words written in rose petals and when he was able to figure out that it was meant for him, he was too stunned to say anything. He kept looking at me lovingly, teary-eyed, overwhelmed with the gesture. For about 10 to 15 minutes, he just kept staring at me, shaking his head in shock and awe--and after it kinda wore off, he hugged me and said "Nobody has done anything like this for me! I feel like I'm the most special person on earth right now! And thank you for making me feel like one!"
Long story short, we had the most romantic and wonderful time celebrating his birthday at the beach, watching the sunset together, keeping ourselves warm.....
When we got back to the inn, he could not believe his eyes when he saw the bed with the rose petals, LED flicker lights, and "diamonds". He was stunned to say the least! He asked me how and where I got these wonderful ideas from. I told him, it was all your ideas and that I wanted to surprise him on his birthday.
Thank you, Brian, for allowing both my best friend and I to experience the most exhilarating and enchanted sunset date ever! We look forward to going back to Carmel....

My....review is for Romantic Room Designs who really topped off our romantic weekend getaway! My bf surprised me with a bonfire picnic on the beach all set up by this company! I was FLOORED when my bf led me to the spot, everything was so perfect! The fire was going, they gave us everything we needed for smores on a blanket, even fresh roses, perrier water and a flashlight for after it got dark! I was incredibly impressed with the presentation and loved everything. Such a genius idea! (View client photo)

I recently took a romantic trip to Monterey and stayed in the Hotel pacific for my girlfriends 30th birthday and I wanted it to be a perfect getaway from the stresses of such a touchy transitional birthday as you ladies may know. I just wanted everyone to take note of a company I used called romanticroomdesigns.com
This has got to be the single smartest thing I did on my romantic trip. The company offers really cool packages or they do 'made to order' items that include but not limited to, silk rose petal trails leading to your bed, candles real and electric if needed (BTW the electric versions fooled the staff who thought they were real), various naughty massage oil type items and champagne all of which is secretly setup in your room of choice before you arrive at the hotel. They even did a hand written note in my words and had bows and feathery items strategically place. My girlfriend was so surprised, simply blow away to say the least. If you're a man who wants to wow your loved one, its money well spent. The package I got even came with a nicely designed "do not disturb" sign I hung on the door of course..... All of the items were great mementos that my girlfriend has kept from the trip. Ordering was easy and the people were very helpful in helping me choose the right things. What can I say.... other then use them and you'll look like a super hero! I'm sure this review sounds like I work for the company, but I'm really just a regular guy who does my research and the results were so successful that I just had to share this little gem!

A beautiful table was set up by "Romantic Room Designs" with rose pettals, lace, candle light, roses, champange, etc. "Romantic Room Designs" came into the room ahead of our arrival time and set up the room. When my husband and I check in (this was a surprise for my husband) he walked in the room and was blown away. The dinner its self was ordered though "Door Bell Dining" who delivers from restaurants all around the area. I would recomend "Romantic Room Designs" for all kinds of occasions. Check out their site romanticroomdesigns.com. Two thumbs up for our stay in Carmel

I called Romantic Room Designs to decorate our room for our Anniversary, and not only do they service this hotel, they really did it right and made our stay even more memorable.
June, 2007 (Bernardus Lodge)
Thank you for creating an incredible experience for us. My husband was blown away by the way it was all prepared for us as we walked up. I set the birthday bonfire for the day we arrived. After travelling all day we were both pretty tired and ready for something relaxing. I was able to tell him that there was a surprise and we needed to be somewhere at 7:15. He drove us following the directions I gave him which you provided and walked down to the beach and there before us was the most beautifully laid out presentation of blanket, bonfire, wine, basket and gorgeous roses. He was in awe, as was I. He kept asking me how I did this. He was overwhelmed and said this was the absolute best and he just couldn't get over how perfect it was. We sat down and enjoyed the excellent wine you chose (GREAT thanks to you Brian for the extra effort in picking out one that was highly rated), Pelligrino, cheese, crackers and s'mores. Then he read to me from the love book in the basket. We took lots of pictures and relaxed next to the fire while watching a beautiful sunset. He said it was the best part of the entire vacation - :) Which was a wonderful vacation! Thank you so much - I would HIGHLY recommend you to anyone, your level of detail and service is unmatched. Thank you for making this a truly memorable event for both of us - I felt like the surprise was for me! What a bonus!

We wanted to pass along our appreciation for a job well done on our bonfire Monday Oct 1! It was just perfect, and the S'Mores is such a cute touch. It was a very unique way to spend our Anniversary evening and more fun than the usual dinner-out sort of thing. I especially appreciate your understanding when we ended up running late and your overall customer service-orientation. That phrase is so overused nowadays, but you really do embody the concept. Thanks again for a truly memorable anniversary experience!

Hi Brian, I would like to thank you very much by your
very professional and perfect service. I was afraid
about the shortest time I gave you to prepare
everything, because I bougth it on Sunday, just before
my long trip from Brazil to California, with no phone
contact with you. And, when we arrived in the Lantern
Green Hotel in Carmel, at 3 PM on Monday, my wife
cried with emotions and became very happy with the
beautiful surprise I gave to her, thanks by your
delivery on-time. It was the beginning of a wonderful
week celebrating 25 years married. It was one of those
magic moments that stay forever in our soul. Room
Romantic Design is now part of our history life.

That was the most incredible night ever!...First and foremost, you helped create a memory that will last with us the rest of our lives. Steph was blown away by the unique and romantic idea you have come up with... I can't begin to tell you how many positive comments we've had about the entire proposal. A very fine touch and I appreciate all that you have done.

I found Romantic Room Designs on line while exploring hotels in Carmel. My parents were going to Carmel to celebrate their 33rd anniversary. I wanted to get something unique and unexpected. I knew where they would be staying, so I contacted Romantic Room Designs and spoke with Heidi. Heidi asked me questions about my parents and what my budget was for them. Heidi sent me a list of ideas to decorate their room. She picked the perfect things for them! Heidi went to their room before they due to arrive, decorated and had the lights & soft music on for them. Heidi called me after she had decorated their room. My parents arrived in their room and were speechless. They said it was the best surprise they ever received. It made their anniversary so special and they said they would never forget it! Romantic Room Designs is the perfect gift for anyone! I will be using them again!

I was searching on the internet for quite a while for an anniversary gift for my wife. I came across your site and really liked the concept and how unique it is. I got my order on time, it looked great and it took me only a short amount of time to have everything ready. She loved it and we still have plenty of romantic supplies left over for our next vacation. Great job!

Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that we were more than pleased with the Anniversary Celebration Package you put together for us at the Casa Munras in Monterey.
Everything was perfect - no detail was overlooked right down to the lighting and the soft music ! The room was beautifully decorated from the rose petals to the chocolate truffles to the bouquet of flowers to the chilled wine. My husband was quite delighted when we walked into the room and discovered the atmosphere was absolutely perfect to begin our anniversary celebration.
I couldn't have been happier with the service and the value, Brian. You delivered the goods as promised and in high style. Romantic Room Designs is a first class operation! I've already recommended your company to friends who will be traveling to the Bay area.
We wish you the best of luck and continued success!

My new fiancée and I were absolutely thrilled with what you did for us. We cannot say enough about how wonderful the setup and location were, and the "message in a bottle" was such a beautiful touch. Thank you so much for helping with a memory that we'll cherish for a lifetime. If you ever need a reference, feel free to contact me.

Brian,
I don't know if it was you who set us up, but it was fantastic! My wife
Laurie was very excited and was a little overwhelmed. I could have taken the
credit for your romantic bonfire set-up, but I gave Romantic Room Designs
the props.
We
were both really pleased and impressed with your professionalism and I have already referred your services to a friend.
