Marcy was fabulous to work worth, and easy to communicate with during the planning process. It was so nice to have a talented profressional come to my house the morning of my March 2011 wedding. She is a perfectionist, and did a stellar job. Marcy even stayed until we were ready to put my veil in, and she did an amazing job of securing it & my headband for the busy day ahead. I'd recommend Marcy to any bride who wants to put their complete trust into a stylist so they can relax and enjoy!!

We ordered a custom runner from SWAR. Our estimated completion date came and went and I contacted SWAR asking when our runner would be completed. We then waited 3 weeks for a response. We responded immediately asking that it be completed and shipped ASAP with our shipping fee reimbursed to us. Another 3 weeks went by, and at this point it was incredibly frustrating. Communication was very poor, but in the end we did receive our runner and it is beautiful, plus SWAR did refund our shipping.

I am torn on whether I would recommend SWAR again - our experience was frustrating, but the runner was perfect!

Lola in Lace made a beautiful custom garter that I used for my wedding day. Its a beautiful satin, and was very comfortable. She was a pleasure to work with, and the item was ready and shipped immediately. Highly recommended!

Artful Beginnings is really onto something! When we were torn about how to officially get our wedding rings down the aisle with our best man I stumbled across Artful Beginnings on Etsy. She creates beautiful silk ring pouches that can be customized! I sent a file of our wedding monogram and she PRINTED it on the silk! And the print quality is amazing. The drawstring pouch even includes two organza ribbons to hold the rings. She is also very responsive and easy to work with. Our ring pouch is now one of our treasured wedding keepsakes!

Angela was such a pleasure to deal with while ordering a couple different items from her. Incredibly sweet, and very responsive. I ordered a hoodie for fun, and she made sure she knew all the details and confirmed my size. I also ordered a dress label from her - her dress labels are gorgeous! Silk, beautiful design, and she perfectly matched the colors based on how I described my color scheme. She even had me approve a proof of the dress label to make sure she understood my vision. Highly recommended!!

Eclu was great to deal with during the process of having 4 custom clutches made. Great selection of styles, using a beautiful more distressed silk that comes in gorgeous colors. What I love about eclu specifically is the custom inscriptions you can add in each clutch. The clutches are also roomy and come with a dust bag - so classy & fun!

Sweet Peas and Shells is so kind and easy to work with. She is more than willing to do custom work to make her items perfect for you and your wedding. She even sent photos of the final product before she shipped it to make sure I was satisfied, of course I was more than satisfied. I'm in love with our LOVE banner!

I bought chocolate brown table runners and couldn't be happier with the price and quality!

I bought 90% of our linens from CV Linens and couldn't be happier with what we purchased! They have a large selection and the prices are reasonable. Customer service is outstanding - I ordered some "chocolate brown" linens, and I received a call to say some of the linens have a slight shade variance due to different fabric lots. They offered to cancel my order, but also assured me the difference is subtle it won't be noticable on a large scale. They were right and I'm glad I didn't cancel my order. Their items also ship immediately. I live in Canada and they are in Texas - the first order arrived the day after I placed it, and the second order arrived two days after I placed it. I have been recommending CV Linens to other brides, because I was so satisfied!

Sarah is AMAZING! Sarah's talents graced so many aspects of my wedding - monograms, invitation suite, cake signs, programs, water bottle labels, photo booth sign, etc. Sarah is so pleasant to work with, and through e-mails was able to make my vision come to life. Her turnaround time is very quick, and she will work to make every design perfect!
