They are all very helpful when getting there, keeping things on time, and making sure everybody has what they need. The couple also said good things about them.

We cannot say enough good things about The Brix and their team. From our very first tour to the end of our wedding night, they were knowledgeable and supportive. We chose some of our vendors from their recommended list, which was super helpful to have! Once you book your date, you are given a plethora of useful information. There were so many times we referenced this during the planning process. On the day of they are super helpful when your vendors get there.

Her professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail truly stood out and made such a difference for us. When our wedding day finally arrived, everything ran so smoothly, and we were able to fully enjoy every moment without worry.
