Wedding Planning
It was truly a pleasure working with Nicole Bishop from GlamFab Affairs. She will listen to your every need and create a package to meet your needs if she doesn't have one already. I could rely on her for anything and she made the planning process easy. She had a ton of resources that helped tremendously on our budget. The only issue with hiring Nicole was some concerns the day before our wedding and our actual wedding day. There were about 160 guests at our wedding and I think an event of that size was a little more than she could handle but I had other vendors and family/friends to ensure my entire experience and wedding day was perfect.
GlamFab Affairs responded with the following comments:
My company is well equipped to handle weddings of any size. We have successfully handled many weddings with 160 guests and more. We have never had a dissatisfied client before. Not all of our clients have taken the time to provide a review on this website but they have sent post cards, emails and notes. So this one review does not reflect GlamFab Affairs overall performance in the wedding industry. We strive for excellence and provide our clients with excellent customer service and professionalism. We make it our duty to stay proactive with our clients especially if it is a Rehearsal and Day of package. We do not have our hand in the planning process for the entire year, so it is imperative that our clients keep us up-to-date of any changes that will take place on their wedding day. When working with clients who sign up for our Rehearsal and Day of package, we do ask that our clients provide all the necessary information that we request prior to their wedding date. We also ask all clients who hire GlamFab Affairs for the Rehearsal and Day of package to either sit down with us and prepare an itinerary or have one prepared for us. We also ask clients to have written instruction that includes what time and when the other vendors are suppose to provide service and their duties for that day. We did our best to accommodate Darmika and her family to the best of our ability. She was asked a week prior to her wedding date if she was comfortable and happy with everything as far as our service and we were told yes, so we very shocked about her review. If there were problems or concerns Darmika had ample time to voice her concerns. Everyone that she felt was important in playing a role in her wedding had our toll free number and a personal cell phone number for contact. We made our self available to Darmika, giving her and her family permission to call anytime, which they made use of quite frequently even outside of my normal business hours. Darmika received a respond to all of her emails and phone calls in a timely manner. We offered to sit down with Darmika to create an itinerary but Darmika chose to do it herself. We were assured by her that an itinerary would be provided but it never was. We even reached out to her a couple of weeks prior to her wedding date and sent her a sample itinerary. We had to construct one based on the general wedding day events. We offered assistance to Darmika numerous times but was told by her that she has it covered. We were never given any of the items requested except for a program the day prior, which was insufficient to use in order to complete an itinerary; the only vendor we had contact with was the DJ who had a basic outline of what songs the couple wanted to be played and when. There was confusion between the DJ and the Band as to when they should play which we believed all should have been worked out prior to the event. Minor detail that matters would have been worked out by GlamFab Affairs prior but because there was no communication between the vendors we were forced to address them as they occurred. We had to provide the caterer with one of our itineraries, because they were never provided one either and they were confused as to what time events were taken place. We made several copies because based on our experience we knew that the other vendors would need one. We were also told that the photographer would deliver a large framed picture for the guest to sign and he never did. Although this was not a part of the package, we knew it was important for Darmika to have this momentum therefore we found an alternative method to attach it to the easel so her guests could sign it. Another issue that presented itself was the seating arrangement. No seating chart was provided which delayed the seating of the guests. We quickly separated the guests into two category of bride and grooms party as soon as a message was delivered to me from Darmika by one of the members’ of her bridal party. We reacted and made the necessary adjustments to an unorganized event and successfully accomplished last minute changes and requests. Darmika was very organized when it came down to the wire except 2 day prior to the wedding. When was contacted for information we were told that someone else would forward the information which took several contacts before the information was received. This should have never happened because prior to her wedding date she was contacted via telephone and also emailed requesting the necessary information to make her day a success. We did our best to address unforeseen circumstances, given the cards that we were dealt. We are equipped and accustomed to adjusting to any situation because no two events are ever the same. We believe in making sure our brides have a wonderful experience. Her wedding was very beautiful, they both looked gorgeous and despite it all they had fun. From our experience over the years working in the Wedding industry we have learned that no matter how much you go above and beyond to provide the best service possible, not everyone will be satisfied. We do appreciate all of my clients past and present opinion of our services. We are very thankful for all their reviews and they will be very helpful in the future.My company is well equipped to handle weddings of any size.

I already provided a rating for the services of GlamFab Affairs after my wedding on 8/28/10. I actually wanted to follow-up on the response from Nicole Bishop. My comments on the service of this wedding planner were honest and sincere. I am very shocked at the detailed response and find it imperative to clarify my previous feedback. My only issue with the service of GlamFab Affairs is that Nicole showed up to our wedding rehearsal 1 1/2 late. The entire wedding party including myself and the groom were on time and the Officiate had to begin without our wedding planner because we were on a strict timeline. Nicole arrived late and was unorganized once she arrived. She was not in appropriate attire and several people noticed this. My mother spoke to Nicole right after the rehearsal and addressed my concerns. On our actual wedding day, Nicole was in charge of ensuring the broom was brought to the altar at the exact time during the ceremony and when this time came, Nicole was nowhere to be found. I personally gave the broom to Nicole with direct instructions on when to bring the broom and she was missing during this time of the ceremony. My Godmother had to run around to find the broom and I still have no idea where Nicole was at this time. There was a gap in the ceremony and we all had to wait for the broom because my wedding planner was missing in action. Whether some of the details in Nicole's response were true or false, the fact remains that she was hired for the day of and actually wedding day and did not do her job 100%. I may have been a little delayed on providing some information to her (as every busy bride would be), but it was Nicole's job to deliver on the above and she did not. This is why I gave the rating I did. I tried to keep it solely positive but the response required a little clarification.

Wow what can I say other than everything was fabulous and what I really expected. Glamfab Affairs is the best couldn't have done it with out you guys. The entire staff was so warm and very helpful in organizing my wedding and making sure that everything turned out very beautiful. I didn't have a thing to worry about because I knew everything was in great hands. I want to give a special thanks to Nicole it was so delightful to work with her. If I had to do it all over again I would still choose Glamfab Affairs to help me plan my wedding. Everything was so organized from the ceremony to the reception, all my guest were provided with printed out directions from the church to the reception site. The cocktail hour set up I heard from my guest was so beautiful. Now for the reception everything ran so smooth from the first dance to the last.
Thanks GlamFab (love that name, so unique)

Having a planner was so valuable to me. I hired Nicole at Glamfab Affairs and she helped me with discounts and kept everything running smoothly. I didn't think I would need a wedding planner until I started looking at everything that needed to be done. Keeping track of everything became so overwhelming and stressful, I am so glad I hired her. My wedding went so very well it was everything I dreamed of.

Planning the most anticipated day of my life was a full time job in itself until I heard about GlamFab Affairs. My wedding was months away; and what seem like a little girls dream is now becoming a nightmare. My initial hopes for our wedding (I thought) were beyond what my budget and time frame would allow, however after my initial conversation with my planner Nicole I felt at ease that the wedding would be just as I imagined as a child. Every detail on the day of our wedding exceeded my expectations- from the decorations, to the flowers, catering, and service- everything was impeccably executed. Throughout the day and in the days that have followed, I have received comments and compliments on how well our wedding ran, how unique the decorations were, and how great the overall atmosphere was to both my guest and family members. Most importantly, I felt assured throughout the planning process and on the day of that I was in good hands and my dream wedding was finally a reality (no pun intended). My husband was a bit skeptical initially in hiring a coordinator, but he agreed that it was all well worth it in alleviating the stresses of planning and for the day of for him and myself. Nicole did such an amazing job in allowing us to truly enjoy our day. We had so much fun and I do not think I would have been as calm and prepared without her. I feel that my planner and I collaborated well, communication was always clear, and her creativity and talent brought my ideas/"vision" to fruition. Overall, I highly recommend GlamFab Affairs to any soon to be married couple.
