My husband and I had our place cards done by Maryanne at Goodhue Designs and we were astonished with how well they came out! The calligraphy was gorgeous and we received many compliments on them! She is truly talented and we received a great service for a very, VERY good deal! I would highly recommend using Goodhue Designs for any calligraphy needs (invitations, place cards, envelopes..) The turn around time was just a week and the service was superior :)

My husband and I worked with Yumila from the Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange in Saddle Brook and I am glad we did! She was extraordinary! She duplicated the exact flowers we were looking for on our trial and gave us a price that was very reasonable for the amount of bouquets, boutonierres & corsages we were requesting! Even when I had to make a few phone calls to her to make changes to the contract, she was very responsive and helpful! On the day of, the flowers arrived extremely FRESH! They looked as though they were just made! My only disappointment was that we had asked for white boutonierres but received yellow ones instead. I knew no one would notice but us, so we made no complaints and all was fine. Regardless, I received so many compliments from guests and my photographer telling me they'd never seen such a beautiful bouquet. I agreed, it came out even better than the trial and I would absolutely recommend this company. Their service was exceptional, on-time, and regardless of the mix-up, Yumila was extremely helpful through the whole process!

As a back-story, my fiance and I were hesitant to check out ANY MORE cake places because we had already dealt with one really rude company and one who's cake was sour when we tried it for my mom's birthday! We found this location after searching online and the pictures of their cakes were gorgeous. We thought we'd give it a shot and we made an appointment to sample what they had. We were surprised to find that they actually have a separate office (from their regular bakery) solely for the purpose of tasting wedding cakes, selecting designs and booking. We sat down and were greeted by a very friendly woman who brought our a tray with about 6 different cake/filling combinations for us to try. Any combination that wasn't on the plate we were able to ask for and they whipped it up for us right then and there. They actually took the time to allow us to sample the cake until it was exactly what we were looking for. They even brought us to their cake-making area to observe several of the bakers in the process of designing! They were extremely friendly and helpful, not to mention - very willing to please! We booked them right then and there and I am glad we did. Our cake came out gorgeously and we got so many compliments on how tasty it was. I would absolutely recommend this company, they go about and beyond to make sure you are happy with the cake you get on your special day!

We used Mike from Elite Sound Entertainment and were very pleased with him! He was fun to plan with, very easy-going and definitely the sort of DJ we were looking for. He was not your typical "obnoxious, in-your-way, attention hogging" DJ. He simply made announcements, helped with a dance if needed and played the music we requested! He helped keep the dance floor packed all night long. He knows how to read a crowd and keep everyone moving! I was surprised to see my great aunt and uncle busting moves on the dance floor... I was impressed! He was super friendly, checked in with us periodically to make sure we were happy with everything and played songs that everyone had a blast moving to! I received many compliments on our DJ choice and lots of people were asking me for their information! Overall, the service we received was outstanding and I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a DJ who knows their music!

Jeanine was BY FAR one of my favorite vendors from the start! After having my original make-up artist cancel on me a month before the wedding, I contacted Jeanine and to both of our surprise, she just had a wedding cancel on HER so it worked out perfectly! From the minute we met, Jeanine put me at ease and I knew that I wanted to hire her. The make-up was natural, stayed put all day long and her personality was phenomenal. (Definitely somebody I would want at my house on my wedding day.) Due to conflicts with hairstyling, I had to push the amount of time alotted for make-up forward by two hours! Somehow, with 8 girls, she still managed to get all of us done with extra time to spare at the end! She made us all glow and everyone was amazed with how great we all looked! I would definitely recommend Jeanine to anyone looking for a professional, talented, ultra-friendly make-up artist for their day too!
