ZooParty's reviews

VistaPrint was a good vendor to use for save the dates. I created postcards to mail out for our save the dates, with pictures from our engagement shoot. The staff at VistaPrint was helpful, but I did have to wait on the phone for about 40 minutes to get the image submitted.

Our reception at the Zoo was so much fun for guests! They arrived in the evening and were directed to take an "animal walk" through the zoo, with zookeepers and their animals waiting to greet them! Owls, small alligators, and sloths were among some of the animals brought to the party. The Zoo's reception area is brilliantly decorated in a colorful South American theme; I did not have to do any decorating! The room is beautiful already, and didn't need centerpeices or candles. The deck stretches out onto Baker Lake, and the tropical flora at the Zoo cannot be beat! The staff was wonderful and accomodating, making my 200+ guests very satisfied.


DB Images is an incredibly gifted studio! Devyyn was an amazing photographer to work with, she made us look gorgeous!

This minister was a great speaker and worked with us to know what style ceremony we were looking for. He directed the ceremony well, and we got many compliments!

Men's Wearhouse was a very professional and convenient place to find the right tuxedos. They have every color imaginable and a knowledgable staff. I was very comfortable working with them, and knew the tuxes would be good quality!

We are big fans of Helzberg! Their Wellington Mall location has a caring and considerate staff who helped with all aspects of jewelry for our big day. We keep going back to them for anniversary, birthdays. I'm expanding my peridot collection! They have a credit plan that helps when you're not able to make "the big purchase" all at once.

We got "do-it-yourself" invitations from Target.com, printed by Garner Studios. We loved the antique pattern on the cardstock, and getting to design them ourselves! This option was more fun and far cheaper than going to a local printer.

Van was by far the most amazing florist I could have chosen! We were working with a small budget and she made the most of it. In addition to the orchids in our bouqets and bountoneres (spelling?), she also brought flower petals, kissing balls, and tulle from her private stock to decorate the church! She went far above and beyond the call of duty, always looking out for the interest of the bride.

This local baker made us the most delectable cupcake tree! It was a gorgeous creation, with tiers of cupcakes covered in both frosted and real flowers. Our color was espresso brown, so she made four kinds of dark chocolate flavored cupcakes: amaretto/cherry, coffee, caramel and mint! Our guests loved the cupcakes and so did we.

We didn't have luck at the big wedding shops, so we went online searching for the right bridesmaid dress. We found it at Nordstrom.com. The Dress Shop at Nordstrom.com has a variety of dresses with impecible quality at cheaper prices than we found anywhere else! They shipped in a timely fashion and were perfect for what I wanted.
