The D-Tales

I learned about the D-tales at a bridal show. I walked by and just asked them a question concerning my colors and what type of venue would work for me. I gave them my two colors and was given a venue that was to the T of what I wanted, later on that week I went to the Rix lounge at Disney and booked my red and black initmate wedding. My wedding planner (Bonnie) was awesome. I was the bride who hated talking on the phone, plus I was taking law classes and being a full time mom, it just wasn't possible. But Bonnie stayed right there with me. I swear we both were night owls because I could be finishing up my homework at 1Am and email her and 5 min later she would be replying. I even had a break down at the try on for the guys tux and I texted her and she replied without hesitation. The day of my wedding was flawless, she had things ready and stuff that I couldn't even think of like red ribbons on my huge favor boxes tied with a bow. She knew all the line dance songs to request for the DJ and made sure I Ate lol. Her one thing was that I was to leave the stressing up to her and I did just that, if I needed her I would look up and she was right there. That Night she was there for me and it felt like it. I texted her the day after the wedding because no one was sending me pics of the tables and the way the reception looked and I couldn't wait till the actual photos came in and again at 1am she replied with some pics. She is outstanding and I highly recommend her and the D-tales.

Words can not express our gratitude and appreciation towards April and her amazing team. Our wedding was perfect and we owe that to April. I knew from our initial meeting that she was exactly what we needed in a day of coordinator. Not only was she fantastic on the day of but she was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. I must have sent her hundreds of emails over the year of planning and she was always very quick to respond. She knew exactly what she was talking about with everything! She saw our vision and helped make it come true! April helped make me feel completely comfortable and confident in her abilities that everything would go smoothly the day of the wedding. I was surprisingly calm and not stressed the day of the wedding because I knew she would be an incredible job. She even helped put us in contact with several different vendors who were exactly what we were looking for. We will never forget our experience working with April and the rest of the team. Thank you for all that you did! We can not thank you enough!

Bonny Bailey is truly amazing. If it was not for her and her level of professionalism my event would not have happened....period. So many things completely out of our control went wrong the day of the event (which is to be expected) and she held it together like glue. She made sure everything was running as smoothly as possible and made sure every detail was handled and taken care of. I am a wedding professional myself and I would reccomend her to every client I have myself. She loves what she does and you can see it on her face. If there were 10 stars she would deserve that.

April & Her Team are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!The D-Tales went above and beyond from what I expected from them. From our Initial Consultation April did an amazing job of getting to know me as her client, understanding the needs and developing something new and unique as I am not your average Bride. If it wasn't for her and her team, I know our special day would've been a disaster. April is a great person to work with, organized, high energy, caring, sweet, positive and VERY RELIABLE! My Groom & I couldn't be happier with all she has done for us and the result of the wedding day. Thank you TONS April!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!! :)

Bonny was the best thing to happen to my wedding! Before we hired her our wedding seemed to be slipping away in all the little details, but by the end of our first meeting with her there was a calm that washed over the entire process. All of the questions about, 'How will this get there?' or 'Who's going to make sure it goes like this?' were no longer questions because we knew that we could rely on Bonny.I honestly have no idea how my day would have gone without Bonny working in the background, coordinating vendors and making sure that we could just enjoy our wedding rather than worry about who's doing what and where they should be. Hands down best decision we made in our vendor selection process.

Bonny Bailey was a total joy to work with!!! She made this day everything my daughter had ever dreamed of and more! We gave her a budget and she kept all of our costs right where we wanted them, and when we threw a new idea at her she made it happen. I never imagined that there could be no stress planning and putting together this day for our daughter. We were able to smile and enjoy every moment.

As I stated on facebook, a mere "post" really can't express how much we appreciate your help. But in a nutshell, my new HUSBAND, Tony Vumbaca and I agree that YOU ROCK!! :-)We hired April to rescue us from a crazy planning experience and take care of our Day-Of Coordination. April was so awesome, and truly went out of her way to help out with last few vendor meetings that I had, and helped me to find some of the special personalized things that I needed to make our day special and unique. She was super organized and helped me think of a lot of things that I might have overlooked. And on the day of, her and Bonnie seriously just kept us so cool. I can't thank you enough for coming to our rescue, and I will certainly pass you on to any of my bride-to-be friends! Thank you thank you Thank YOU!

April and her team are AMAZING! As a fellow wedding vendor, I thought I had a good handle on what to expect. April and her girls surpassed my expectations by far. She is like a horse whisperer or something, I swear! On my wedding day, I am willing to bet she was working my day before I was awake and LONG after I was asleep. She may look like Barbie, but she ain't scared to break a sweat. Not one of my family members or I had to worry about a thing. Another unexpected benefit of April - she calmed my nerves when no one else could. She is so worth every penny. I recommend her HIGHLY to everyone.

April truly went above and beyond even our wildest dreams. Our wedding day would have been incomplete without her. The attention she pays to the little details sent my wedding from AMAZING to SPECTACULAR!!!! Our day went so smoothly that my husband and I didn't have to think about anything except having a good time and sharing our love. She is what made our day perfect. If your thinking about getting married and you don't want all the stress she should be the first thing you book.

April and The D-tails team are truly amazing!!!!! I married the love of my life on March 19, 2011 and because of her our wedding was the perfect dream come true. My husband and I are lucky to have found her because without her we would have been lost in this exhausting process of planning and pulling off a wedding. And if you are lucky enough to book her you will understand why. She is always there when you need her and often times before you need her. She takes the visions in your head and turns them into reality. She worked with our crazy schedules and crazy families and managed to keep everyone sane and happy. My guests all loved her and she made it so my husband and I could relax and enjoy our special day. April is a priceless asset in having your dream wedding come true. She will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Face it girls, you don't have time for everything. And unless you have been 'the bridesmaid' a few dozen times, there are details you are going to forget. That is why you need Bonny. Prompt, pleasant and Practically Perfect in everyway, she will help guide you thru to the perfect wedding for 5 or 500. I thought I could whip this wedding out of my bag of tricks and it would be awesome. Oh, I was so overwhelmed. This isnt the place to cheap out- there is real time photo video evidence that you forgot something- on you tube before even the cake has been cut. (cake? where is the cake?)Do yourself, and your mom a favor. Get Bonny to help. she'll make it right, she'll make you feel good, she'll let you be the star of your show, and your show won't appear on the Wedinator.

Working with Bonny and her team was such a pleasure. She was the epitome of professionalism, yet felt like one of the family! It was such a relief knowing that the event was in such capable and competent hands. Thank you for a successful evening!

April is the best! My wedding had too many details for me to deal with on the big day. I couldn't even figure out my vision. She was amazing at helping me envision and pull it all together! Even if you have the smallest budget, she is worth it! :)

The D-Tales is an ...understatement!Whether your dreams of "The Perfect Wedding Day" is a traditional classic wedding ...a fantasy fairy tale, or a dramatic everyone involved action packed wedding Bonny with The D-Tales will make all your dreams and memories come true! It's "your" wedding ...don't leave what should be your most memorable day to amateurs. Bonny is personal and professional.... Just the right mix of both! Suzanne Orlando, Florida

April was very helpful when it came to everything. She knew what she was doing and it left us with ease during the planning process. Thank you!

April was a pleasure to work with she is extremely organized and and knows what she is doing. She interacts well with other vendors and goes way above and beyond what I had expected. She kept us on budget and even helped get us a discount or two. I was hesitant to hire a wedding planner I wanted to save that money and thought I could do it all for my daughter however, it was money well spent everything went smooth and I was able to relax and enjoy myself.

April bent over backward to ensure that our wedding went off without a hitch. She is the ultimate professional. She listened to our ideas, and she then created an amazing wedding around those ideas. In speaking with her for the first time, we instantly realized that SHE was exactly who we had been looking for; her knowledge and expertise instilled confidence in us that we had made the right decision to hire her. From the early planning stages to the actual wedding, she was with us every step of the way. She resolved whatever issues presented themselves, taking the worry off of our shoulders. If you are planning a wedding, do yourself a favor -- hire this brilliant, classy woman. It'll be one of the best investments you will ever make!

We were hesitant to hire a wedding coordinator because our daughter had done such a wonderful job planning and organizing. However, as the wedding drew near we found there were minor details that would be distracting and might take away from our ability to enjoy the big day. The small amount of money we spent for wedding coordination saved our day. As it turned out, there were late deliveries and some other minor details that didn't go quite as planned, but we never knew until after the event. The wedding and reception were absolutely perfect. We spent the entire weekend relaxing and relishing the moment. I wish I could count how many times my husband, my daughter or I have said...."Hiring April (The D-Tales) was the best decision we have ever made and the smartest money we ever spent". We can't say thank you enough or express how perfect she made our once in a lifetime weekend.The Roden Family

I've worked with Bonny on multiple events and her professionalism and attention to detail surpass many others I've worked with. She accepts change and adapts well to last minute requests and remains flexible thoughout the process. I look forward to the next event I have the chance to work with her again.

Working with Bonny was great! As a 30+ year old bride short with time and options, she provided the best alternatives to a low budget wedding that was nothing less than perfect. She "put up" with my anxieties and delivered as promised.

Working with Bonny during my wedding planning was pure joy! She was professional, friendly and really made my wedding plans go off with ease. She kept up constant communication with not just me but with members of my family and the staff at the resort. She made my wedding “vision” so much more with her fabulous ideas and suggestions. She was present at my rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception and was very hands on to ensure perfection. My Wedding was gorgeous and incident free and I have Ms. Bonny Bailey to thank for that!

What an amazing wedding! We are all so thrilled with the fairytale you pulled off. We could have never enjoyed this wedding without you. April, the choice of vendors was "spot on" and you saved us so much work!From the fresh flowers to the party all night, as the mother of the bride, I cant tell you how much I loved having you there! In fact, without all the stress, I too felt like a princess.Thank you for all you did and when Aaron is ready, The D-Tales will be his first gift!Thank you again for your professionalism and the fun you bring!Isa A.

I wanted to share my amazing experience with Bonny Bailey. I have had the pleasure of working with her for over the past year in planning my wedding in March 2011. Bonny has so many great qualities and she truly belongs in the wedding and event planning field! Some of the amazing character traits about Bonny she is extremely knowledgeable, professional, very responsive, organized and has had great suggestions to help me enhance my wedding day. She is has been so calm and patient with me during the entire process as I love to ask questions. I would without a doubt highly recommend her to any bride who is looking for an A+ wedding planner! Keri G.

There is no type of event that anyone can imagine that The D-Tales can't make into a reality. She listened to every crazy thought or rambling...and made the event special and one to remember.The most helpful tip I could give anyone in working with The D-Tales, don't be afraid to ask! You won't be sorry...

Bonny Bailey has not done an event for me, but I have known her as a friend for a number of years. She ia a creative, thoughtful, conscientious and thoroughly professional young woman. I know that if she is involved in your wedding or other special day, then she will do her ultimate best to make it perfect! And on top of all that - she can even teach you to dance!

The D-Tales is a fantastic wedding planner in Orlando. She makes the life of a bride so much easier as she helps plan the many details of a wedding day. If you are looking for a wedding planner, I strongly suggest her!She recently wrote an article on the importance of wedding planners for my blog. Please check it out: http://www.dswfoto.com/blog/tag/the-d-tales/

I am a wedding photographer so I know great coordinators - and I chose April. She is great. Bizarrely, I got nervous on my big day (although i do this for a living) and she was THE ONLY person who could calm my nerves. I could go on and on. You are in the best hands with April.

April is a very down to earth person. I am truly happy to have her as a friend. She is an amazing Event Planner. The D-Tales is the name of her company and it suits her well because she does not miss a thing. When you work with April, your special occasion will be a day to remember.

April is amazing, so talented and professional. Love working with her! Her visions are gorgeous and she's fun to work with.

April is a fabulous & creative event planner who breathes life into every event she works with. Working with her is such a joy, we highly recommend her services for your special day and beyond!

April is absolutely fantastic! She's creative and such a Do-er! Brides who are looking for top-notch coordination, amazing ideas and of course - brilliant details - should run to April! I love every moment working with her! Her energy can't be matched and she always knows how to pick up a shoot when it's starting to lose focus. She is absolutely amazing and I'd recommend her over and over again!

As an officiant, it's comforting to work with a professional wedding coordinator that practices the Association of Bridal Consultants protocol. April knows what she's doing and knows how to keep things running smoothly--which says a lot when it comes to the complexity of a wedding day. The best recommendation I can give is that April is one of very wedding coordinators that I'd trust to work my sons wedding next June. Do yourself a favor and give her a call.

April is great to work with. I recently did an event w/ her out in Deland & this was no small task. As soon as I arrived she was hands on to help & had everything we needed already in place. Through out the night she was there when needed & let us do our thing to make the party happen & the clients happy. She delegates well & is always there when you need her to be. Couldn't ask for more! I'll work with her any chance I get & you should too.- Frank Steel White Rose Entertainment

April is one of the most fun and professional coordinators in the industry. She is a down to earth person with awesome ideas.

I have always enjoyed working with April (The D-Tales). She really did an amazing job this past weekend so I wanted to take the time to write about her amazing attention to details (Irony? I don't think so!) The work she did for the event Saturday night was nothing short of incredible, and everyone was able to enjoy themselves, knowing she was 100% aware of what the clients needed as the night progressed. If you want it done right, call April, and listen to her as well- she thinks beyond the usual! Also, as the plans were set, and as party plans change unexpectedly, as they usually do, she adjusted as necessary without stress which is BIG! A+++++ to The D-Tales!

April is amazing. She worked all day until the early morning the next day and never complained. She was extremely organized and got the job done. She made the event an incredible success. She's fun, energetic, and great at her job. Chris and I can't wait to do another event with her :)

April Dorsey is everything you could ask for out of a wedding coordinator. She is organized, creative, attentive, and completely on top of everything. As a DJ we work with lots of coordinators and we've seen the good and the bad, I'm happy to let you know that April awesome! We look forward to working with her and I know you'll absolutely love her! We highly endorse April as she is truly on top of the D-tales :)
