I know all the reviews here seem to say the same thing but April truly is AMAZING! She married my husband and I on July 2, 2011 in NJ. The ceremony remains my absolute favorite part of the wedding day. From our first meeting, to all the follow up meetings, phone calls, the wedding rehearsal up until the wedding day, April was a pure JOY to work with. She was always so professional and kind and over time felt more like a friend than a vendor. I like to refer to her as a friendor. She worked with us to craft a ceremony that was funny, touching and a reflection of our personalities and our family in every way. Our guest have raved on and on about the ceremony saying it was one of the best they have ever heard and I agree with them 100%! When I looked at the recording of our ceremony I am once again soothed by April's calming voice and brought to laughter and tears by her words. Hands down one of the best wedding related decisions we made was choosing her to marry us. If you are looking for a ceremony performed with love by someone who will care about not only you, but your family and your guests as well then you could not chose a better officiant than April Beer.

I worked with Laurelwood Designs for my July 2011 wedding. Laurie and her wonderful assistant were an absolute joy to work with. Their patience during the changes I made was much appreciate. On the day of my wedding, I was floored with how beautiful the bouquets were and as well as the corsages and boutinners. The flowers were fresh and lasted over a full week after the wedding! The design work of the bouquets and bouts was artistic yet classic and flawless. I got so many compliments on the flowers and when I received my professional photos I once again marvelled at how lovely everything looked. Response time was also fast and while planning a wedding which can be very stressful, Laurelwood made floral decisions a breeze. Even the delivery person was so sweet and personable on the day of the wedding and she seemed to share in the joy and excitement of the day as well. The entire Laurelwood team is top notch!

I held my rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony and reception at Biagio's in July 2011. The entire Biagio's family was wonderful to work with. I worked primarily with Paula and Tommy but everyone I encounted was professional and courteous. No attention to detail is missed and if there were any problems during any of my events, myself or my family were never aware. The decor? Very tasteful and allows you to decorate the way you want without fear of clashing. The location? Wonderful! Biagio's is located next to various major highways. The front waterfall is an excellent backdrop for bridal portraits and there is a park within walking distance for additonal photos. Ample parking is available on site as well as a separate entrance attached to the ballroom for your guests. I've saved the best for last. The food? ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. All the food was fresh, well presented and tasted even better than it looked. My guests are still raving about the food and I am too! The bartender was lovely as well. Biagio's made our wedding and all related events a dream come true. I'm looking forward to having dinner there on our first anniversary or anytime we want a great meal, a drink at the bar, some amazing buffalo wings or just a romantic night out.

I worked with Erin and Demetra of DEsigns for my July 2011 wedding. If I could pick one word to describe them it would be: AMAZING. From our initial consultation until the wedding day there were no requests big or small they could not accomodate. Everything was perfect from paper products to favors to the centerpieces. Wedding planning can be a very stressful time but DEsigns can help you navigate it with ease and you'll have a ton of fun as well! The day of the wedding, my husband and I were overwhelmed with how beautiful everything looked and how smoothly things went. Guests are still telling us it was the most beautiful wedding they have ever attended and I could not agree with them more, even if I am biased by saying so. There were so many special touches that Erin and D supplied for us and when I look back on the entire wedding planning process and the day itself, they were a HUGE part of the great memories I have of this time. If you want to work with a team of professionals that will listen to you, get to know you and what you like, are extremely creative, fun and professional then DEsigns is the team for you!
