    Sidney and the staff at Rave Reviews are truly AMAZING. They have a meticulous eye for perfection and their kind, calm demeanor is infectious in even the most stressful of times. Walking into the reception took my breath away. Sidney has a way of making anything and everything look nothing less than unbelievably beautiful. There wasn't a detail that went overlooked. Throughout the entire planning process I felt calm and reassured. Sidney and her team were able to translate our visions into a reality that was too good to be true. Rave Reviews also has wonderful, strong relationships with the best vendors in the area which made the planning even more enjoyable. I can't speak any more highly of Rave Reviews. Amazing, Amazing, Amazing!!!!

    Wendy is the consummate professional. Wendy planned my wedding, and more recently, both of my sons' bar mitzvah parties. Her work was phenomenal for all three events. Wendy is organized, efficient, responsive, and incredibly creative. She knows her vendors, and her advice is fantastic. It gave me great peace of mind to know that Wendy had my back every step of the way. Do not pass up the opportunity to work with Wendy and Rave Reviews - she is worth every penny and MORE!!!

    When I initially hired Wendy I thought she was a luxury to help me plan my son's Bar Mitzvah. What I came to realize in short order is that she was an absolute necessity! Wendy is knowledgeable, organized, responsive and seasoned. Her advice was always solid, and she was instrumental in bringing together an awesome team to create a fabulous party. I had peace of mind and confidence knowing that Wendy had my back. Thank you, Wendy and Rave Reviews!!

    Rave Reviews is AMAZING! I truly didn't have to worry about a thing. Anything that was on Rave Review's plate, I knew would be taken care of beautifully and that was such a weight off my shoulders during the crazy wedding process. They worked within my budget. They have great relationships with vendors and are respected by others in the industry and directed me to those who would give the most value and quality within the budget, with Wendy of RR helping to negotiate the best prices. RR more than exceeded all of my expectations. Everything was more beautiful than I even imagined! Wendy and her team are true pros in this business and can answer any question and help guide decisions along the way. If you go with RR, you will not be disappointed.

    Wendy Raab at Rave Reviews was my right hand through the entire process from start to finish. Looking back on the year and a half we worked together planning the wedding of our dreams, I cannot even imagine doing it without Wendy the Wedding Planner! She is organized, responsive, knowledgeable, experienced and extremely well connected in the world of wedding vendors which we quickly learned is invaluable. There really wasn't one part of our big day that she did not touch in some way and she was a complete joy to work with. She set up as many meetings as we needed to find the perfect fit in each vendor we partnered with. She helped us build our budget and more importantly, stick to it! She has years of experience and relationships to bring to the table and we even realized that so many of the vendors we hired know each other and have worked together many times before, so they all worked beautifully together. We never would have been able to put such an amazing team of people together without Wendy's connections. She thinks of absolutely everything and works to make sure your wedding is really a top notch reflection of who you are as a couple. We truly did have our dream wedding and it was in huge part to Wendy. I could never thank her enough, and I am honestly having a little separation anxiety now that is all over! Our friends and family actually have been RAVING about what an amazing wedding we had and I will be forever grateful for Wendy Raab and her team at Rave Reviews for every single special touch they put on our wedding day. It was perfect. Thank you Rave Reviews!

    If I could rate Wendy Raab from Rave Reviews a 6 I would. She helped plan my son's Bar Mitzvah weekend, which included a Friday night dinner, a Kiddush lunch, a huge evening party for 270 guests and a Sunday brunch. Everything went smoothly and the guests are still talking about how fabulous the party was.

    I enjoy working with Wendy. She is great to be around (and when you plan a big event you do spend a lot of time with your planner) . She is super well organized and she never misses a detail.

    Most importantly, during all of my events of the weekend, particularly the Saturday night party, I could just enjoy the party because I knew that Wendy would ensure that everything went smoothly.

    The name says it all! Our wedding was complete perfection because of Rave Reviews. Wendy was a dream to work with: she stayed within our budget, recommended vendors, but also worked with some vendors that we chose on our own. On the actual day, my family, groom, and I had not a stress in the world. If anything went wrong, I still don't know about it! Wendy takes care of it all! Wendy's guidance from the beginning brought our vision to life. Her taste is immaculate and people are still talking about the day! We are even being featured in Baltimore magazine!

    We cannot thank Wendy and the Rave Reviews team enough for making our special day even more special!

    Love love love Wendy! She is extremely knowledgeable, gives wonderful advice and has years of experience. Wendy was able to help us navigate vendors and choose the best ones for our needs. We have used Rave Reviews for several events and have never been disappointed. She is responsive and cool under pressure. All of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to!

    We worked with Wendy throughout the whole process and her team the day of and had an excellent experience. Wendy is professional and has great contacts in the wedding industry as she has been doing this for awhile. She knew what questions to ask the vendors and knew particular details that we would have never thought about. She provided wedding day schedules to the bridal party and was on top of all the last minute details. Her team was also great day of coordinating all the vendors and the event setup. Wendy made things easier for me throughout the whole process and I would recommend Rave Reviews as a wedding planner. Finally, we got our invitations done through them as well and they were beautiful.

    This company is professional and savvy. They have a great range of vendors and are anxious to create an event that suits your needs and tastes and dreams. I have 3 daughters and worked with Rave Reviews to make 3 weddings - each one was beautiful and unique to my bride.

    Our experience with Rave Reviews was positive from beginning to end. When it was all over, I wished I had another daughter so that I could do it all over again. And I would definitely have used Sidni Greenblat and Rave Reviews again.

    My daughter and I found Rave Reviews wonderful in helping us sort through options and come together with a perfect wedding. Their creative ideas were superior and they had excellent contacts and relationships with vendors who they recommend and use. They then assisted with our choices with the caterers, florists and musicians. They were invaluable on the day of the wedding when emotions run high. We couldn't have done this successfully without them.

    Rave Reviews is the best. We've used them for three big events now and they have made all of them spectacular. Aside from taking big tasks off your plate, they have a wealth of wisdom on small touches that you'd never think of yourself. They create classy, lovely, unpretentious, excellent events so you can have an amazing time before and during your celebration, and frankly never feel stressed -- which is pretty amazing!

    I, the MOB have planned another family wedding and my daughter, the bride is a very organized person who knew what she envisioned for her wedding. Even with this, having Wendy Raab leading the way as our wedding planner was essential to being able to enjoy our family wedding. Being available to help us to select the right vendors for us was a huge help. Wendy's staff was great with remembering all of the small details that were needed to be ordered in due time.

    As the week of the wedding approached, Wendy was available for what seemed 24/7 whenever we had a question or concern. During the wedding weekend, it seemed that Wendy and her staff was everywhere that we needed someone, even if we may not have realized it at that moment.

    As for any large event, there are always a few snags, but with Wendy and staff around, we were kept informed, but did not have to run around personally handling anything.

    Even though my husband first grumbled about having a wedding planner, as time came closer to the wedding, he saw the value of having Rave Reviews there with us.
