We had an absolutely beautiful wedding. All of the designs we picked came to life beautifully on the day of. The food and cake were absolutely to die for and we received so many compliments from our guests about this as well. We absolutely loved Michael in the design studio as well as Abby our day of coordinator. My only grievance and reason for not giving 5 stars is the communication during and after the planning and wedding day. We had to ask for things to be updated and fixed multiple times before things would be addressed which was a bit frustrating. One thing that really upset me was the fact that I had to correct the company at least 4 times in the months before the wedding that the bout count for the boys was wrong in the contract and was ensured it would be fixed. Eventually the count was fixed on the contract but come wedding day they were short 2 bouts and when I brought it up to the planner she was seemed quite unapologetic and in a rush to do other things. My photographer ended up making some with the leftover babies breath from my girls hair. This company will produce a beautiful wedding with all of the bells and whistles but can work on their communication with the bride and other family members, we are paying quite a bit of money after all. Check check and check your contract and you will have smooth sailing! Would recommend this venue
