My DH and I were a little turned off at our first meeting when Sarah started pressuring us to buy her program. This program consisted of her friend taking all of our musical selections and editing them down to make our wedding "flawless". This service would be an additional $100. When we finally walked out the dance studio some 45 minutes later, we were numb. I was ticked at my FI for paying in full but whatever...we stuck it out. Our dance lessons started a week later and I guess Sarah forgot about the program because she never mentioned it again. (Thank god!) My DH isn't a dancer at all, so I was rather impressed that she got him to do the moves she did. I do feel though that Sarah picked on me through some of our lessons. At times my hands weren't in the proper place or I wasn't putting enough effort; it seemed that no matter how I did it, it was just never right. My FI was always laughing because he had no dance experience and seemed to get raves, while I was struggling to do a stupid turn. Although we didn't pay $$$$, Sarah and her husband always seemed rush in our lessons. At our first lesson she focused mainly on the set-up versus the actual dance. At our second lesson, she was running behind....(doing her "program" pitch to antoher couple), so we only had time to do a quick run through. This run through was just my FI and I repeating the same silly steps over and over. Sarah said we were, "getting there" and wanted to see us in another week. Honestly, I don't even know why we bothered with this lesson. At the last lesson she tried to sell us on lessons for different dances, which she claimed would be "more fun and exciting". S All in all, we really liked the time we spent together in the studio; I just could have lived without Sarah's sales pitch and her sometimes critical attitude. Oh well, it's over now:)

Her jewelry is both beautiful and just perfection; I loved everything she created for me and my bridesmaids. I can't get over how gorgeous all my pieces were and the price was very reasonable.

Perhaps Pam has taken on too much these days that it's now reflecting in her quality? I don't really know. But she did some serious hacked up jobs on at least 3 of my bridesmaid’s dresses. These dresses cost well over $150.00, so this might explain why I am so disappointed in Pam. My MOH/sisters' dress was the worst, instead of taking the dress in at the bust she took it in at the waist. My sister had gone to 2 fittings with Pam and unfortunately couldn't go to a 3rd due to work constraints so my Mom had to pick up her dress. On the night before the wedding she tried it on and we just stared at one another. It was too tight and it bunched. At 1am, we were driving around downtown LB looking for a sav-on or something that sold hose with control top. Luckily it worked out but still, my sister was very un-happy. On 4 of the 7 dresses, she sewed on straps? Why would she do this?? *shakes head* Another issue I had, which was told to me by my bridesmaids was how she handled my dress. My dress was on her living room floor, with nothing underneath it. This scared the hell out of me since Pam has kids in her house and has lots of visitors. Thankfully my dress was beautiful and the bustle she made was gorgeous but still, I can't look past the fact that she ruined beautiful bridesmaid dresses and made my sister cry.

JaymeWilson12 told me about this place and how cool the set up was, so we booked it for our RD. The food and service was top notch and you just can't pass up the pricing! For 22 people, the bill was under $300.00!!! P.S. Loved the Flautas.

I went dress shopping 2 times and I found my dress on my second trip. When my littlest sister showed me the dress I told her it wasn’t my style but she persisted. I’m glad she did because it was beautiful. I have no complaints since I received great service.

My DH and I are not cake people unless its tres Leches and since it wasn't, we let our 4 year old decide what cake to serve. Took him to our tasting and said, "Isaac, you pick the cake". And he did. Whatever he picked was pretty darn good because he wanted a to-go bag. And I haven’t heard a peep from our guests, so I guess it was a successJ Gotta love it!

Joyce is amazing and she's worth every dime she charges. I took in a photo of Rachel Bilson and said, "Do this" and she did it. On the day of the wedding she and her team did 12 hair do's and then 12 girls’ make-up. Each hair do was flawless and just like the bridesmaid wanted. My little sister and dh's sister had issues with their hair because of the curls but Joyce fixed it to their likings, and was soo sweet about it. Had it been a salon they would have just given up. Joyce is the best!!!

The chair covers were put up on time and the price was good, so she gets an A. I had no un-expected issues and Angie was always sweet on the phone. You definitely can't beat the price of $2.50 per chair cover.

Richard was just wonderful and I was so pleased with how well he performed our ceremony. He was so warm in his words and I gobbled them up big time. He did a fantastic job.

The music to my ceremony was very important to me and well, Kevin screwed up big time. Without giving all the ugly details, I will just say that 1/2 of my bridal party walked down to no music and we all walked out to NO music. Oh, and his seating music consisted of him and the flutist practicing and warming up.
