Eddie helped us with the flowers for our wedding. He did a WONDERFUL job. Our experience working with him was great. He was professional and did a great job on our flowers. He kept everything in our budget and gave us everything we asked for and more. We had a last minute addition and needed sand boxes for our place cards. Eddie made them up and loaned them to us at NO CHARGE!!! I really can't say enough wonderful things about Commerce Flowers. Everyone there is great!

Mike was the MC/DJ for our wedding last year. He did a wonderful job, very outgoing, played the music that we wanted. He and Stefani did a great job setting up the lights and our gobo. He had a few issues with the names of our wedding party and forgot to announce that we had wedding take-home bags, but other than that he was great.

We had our wedding at the LBMA last year. The venue is beautiful. It's on a little bluff overlooking the ocean and the Queen Mary. We don't regret our decision to have our wedding here, but we do have a few thoughts to share for anyone who might be considering this venue for their wedding.

Pros: The venue is wonderful. It definitely has a homey feel and the location is great. We had a lot of out of town guests and there was plenty for them to do in the area. The food was spectacular, everyone raved. Martin did a great job. Sara, the special events coordinator, was wonderful. Very sweet.


Cons: However, as others have stated, it's hard to get a hold of someone to get your questions answered in any timely fashion. If you are a bride planning your wedding on your own, you may find this frustrating. As questions may go unanswered for months at a time even with multiple emails and phone calls. I think they are just severely understaffed. i started getting timely responses to my emails and questions about 2 weeks prior to our wedding. My biggest tip is to have all of your questions ready during your face to face meetings because that's where you'll get them answered.
