Santosha was great to work with and she had fabulous ideas! She did exactly what we wanted and the hall looked absolutely gorgeous!! She set up all of the centerpieces for us at no extra charge even though we made them and she came through with a card box at the very last minute when I realized we forgot! Her prices are also exceptionally low and she’s really a gem to work with. Beautiful décor at a really great price!

Allison acted as my Day-Of Coordinator and she is amazing… Seriously. We met a couple of times beforehand and I gave her all of the details about my vendors, bridal party etc. By the time I called my vendors the week of the wedding to finalize details, she had already called them and everything was totally set. At the rehearsal, she helped us figure out how things could go and insured that it went completely smoothly. The day of the wedding, she was my savior! From directing everyone (vendors, family, bridal party and more) where to go and what to do, to helping with set up, to even wiping up the dance floor when people spilled – she was everywhere!! She handled everything and did it beautifully. I can’t say enough good things about her and I don’t know what I would have done without her there!!

Although I was a bit skeptical to use a “union hall” for our reception, I was pleasantly surprised when we visited to check it out. It is really a beautiful hall that is quite spacious and has a large bar. The rental fee is very reasonable, and they also allow you to bring your own alcohol which was important to us and saved us quite a bit of money. The evening of our reception, they turned down the temperature in the hall for me when we felt warm (all the way down to 63!) and I really appreciated that!! No one likes to be sweaty! The only negatives I can think of are that it is in the lower level of the building and the elevator is unbelievably slow, so any guests who are unable to use the stairs have to wait for what seems like an eternity. The other (minor) complaint that I had is that the table linens were not ironed before being placed on the tables. The table runners I provided covered up most of the wrinkles, but it still bothered me a little.

They were very straightforward and easy to work with from our first meeting. The day of, they were at the church far before I was and were completely ready to shoot by the time I arrived. We had a crew of 5 (between photographers and videographers) and it seemed like we had just 5 extra friends around. They were funny, friendly and respectful and they always seemed to be catching all the action without ever getting in the way. We received over 2000 edited photos within 10 days of our wedding and they’re truly incredible. I love that we have all of the full-quality images to use as we please too – that was very important to us! They captured so many details and so much emotion and they were really great to work with. The video was also fantastic and in addition to the usual footage, they put together some awesome montages. We actually ENJOY watching it!

I had signed up at a bridal show for one of their ‘special offers’ which turned out to be not so special after all if you didn’t rent their lowest cost tuxedos, but I guess I should have expected that. In any case, we were able to find tuxes that we loved and they helped us with our choices. 4 of the tuxes came in with size issues, but luckily they were able to be fixed in store. Obviously I’d like them to have been handled before then, but I do appreciate that the issues were taken care of quickly.

Sharry is a pleasure to work with and she executed my ideas beautifully and at an unbelievable price. The altar arrangements were beautiful at the ceremony, the reception, and even the day-after brunch! The only reason I am not rating a full 5 stars is because some of the flowers had browned edges, even upon first arrival, and some of the bouts/bouquets had some small parts and pieces fall out throughout the day. Honestly though, I may have been the only one who noticed those flaws, as everyone else raved about the flowers! They really were beautiful and she really captured what I wanted in everything. And honestly, you can’t beat her prices!! I would definitely recommend her!

We had Craig from Class Act as our DJ after seeing him at several friends’ weddings and he was again fabulous! It’s not too hard to get all of us twenty-somethings on the dance floor, but he had everyone from our 2 year old flower girl to our 80 year old grandparents out there having fun too – that takes talent!! He did great with our must play and do not play songs and he was almost like a personal assistant to us and our bridal party!! Always making sure we had food, drinks, and anything else we needed. He also kept the flow of events going very smoothly throughout the night and made sure everything went just as we wanted it to. Great!!

The food was FANTASTIC and we heard about a million compliments on it! In addition, Nancy was a total pleasure to work with. She worked with us on all of our ideas and really put everything together beautifully. She was even there early on the day of, helping to set up our centerpieces and she took the initiative put the extras out on the cake table and bar – a beautiful touch!!! She and her staff, especially the bartenders, were also fabulous and were very efficient while also being extra-friendly!! In addition, when the labor hours added up to be a little less than what she had estimated, she mailed us back a check. I appreciate that honesty!

Our cake was GORGEOUS and it tasted simply amazing!! Kristy is absolutely wonderful to work with along with being incredibly talented - she took our idea and really brought it to life!! We had plenty of cake that was delicious long afterward and her price was so, so low! I was more impressed with her work than any other baker I visited – even those that charged almost 3x as much! I was incredibly pleased and would absolutely recommend her!!

I received excellent service from David’s both times I went in to try on dresses. We also received good service when my girls went in to try on theirs. The dresses arrived quickly and were very nice. They did order my dress a size bigger than I thought it should be, but it ended up working out because I was able to lace up the back more tightly. I think their sizing may be a little off, however. The only real snafu we had was with the discount that was promised to my bridesmaids since I purchased my dress there as well. A couple of girls were given a hard time because they hadn’t ordered at the same time, but a phone call from me remedied the situation rather quickly. Overall, very pleased.
