Sadie's was a wonderful choice for our wedding. We live out of state so only got to meet with Melissa once. We also didn't have very specific flower ideas, just colors in general so it was really up to the creativeness and design of the florist. We were not disappointed. We have a somewhat eclectic and unique taste in design and Melissa nailed it. My bouquet was breathtaking and definitely a photo piece. The arrangements fit in perfectly with the theme and locations of the entire wedding. I am only sad I can't keep these arrangements forever they were so beautiful and just our style. You also can't beat the price for the quality; worth every penny and then some.

We worked with Brenda from D'Amico and held our reception at Calhoun Beach Club. A truly gorgeous and fun venue. Our situation was a bit tricky with our ceremony being held at the Sculpture Garden we needed a rain backup. So the call had to be made very last minute for set up and we have multiple plans for set up and seating arrangement based on what the weather would allow. Through this Brenda was so easy to work with. She had great suggestions and knowledge and really listened to your requests and helped make your vision a reality. Her patience was exceptional and we thoroughly enjoyed working with her.

Besides the venue being exquisite, the food was extraordinary! It was definitely a major deciding factor in choosing the venue itself. D'Amico could coin the term "not wedding chicken". We chose the Sea Bass which everyone should have ordered in my opinion, and a chicken dish. I was so torn between the two I had a special "bride" plate with extra items which Brenda offered! The food was so good the Sea Bass was actually a topic of discussion. I highly recommend working with D'Amico for not only their amazing pallet, but their quality of service as well.

In my quest to find the right person with the right budget I found Sarah. I interviewed several planners and found Sarah to be the perfect fit. We worked with Sarah throughout our planning process and at that point had only found the venue and caterer, which happened to come together. Even though we technically purchased the partial service plan, Sarah was there to help with anything we needed from the moment we started working together. Her recommendations for other vendors was spot on and we ended up picking her highest recommended every time, even though I exhausted my research with other vendors.

By the time the big day came I felt that she was part of the family. She not only became someone we did business with, but had become a friend I feel as well. My concerns were her concerns even if I didn't tell her what they were. She is a true professional with her work as her passion and will not let you down.
