We love The River Plantation and Tiffany! It was our dream venue and everything was amazing! From the first interaction, Tiffany was nothing short of professional, friendly and extremly helpful! We loved the venue but working with her made the entire experience top notch! She responded to emails or phone calls in what seemed like minutes and made us feel like we were the only wedding she was working on everytime we spoke. I can not say enough about how easy she made everything for us!
My husband and I and our families stayed at the Manor House for the weekend of our wedding and then had the reception at Hunter's Oak. We were catered to from the moment we stepped on the property Friday until Sunday afternoon when we left! Ann, the housekeeper at The Manor House, went out of her way at every opportunity to make us feel relaxed and taken care of. She was a fabulous addition to our weekend!
Our ceremony was incredible and luckily the weather held out. There was a chance of rain that day and so Tiffany had a tent set up on the property of the Manor House in case the showers began. I am glad we didn't need it, but to know that she had everything covered just in case speaks to her effort to make everything as perfect as can be.
Our reception at Hunter's Oak was incredible. Food was spectacular, service was wonderful and guests couldn't stop talking about it then and now. My mother has received a multitude of phone calls from guests thanking them and raving about the entire wedding. Tiffany and The River Plantation made our wedding weekend spectacular! We are blown away with how amazing our wedding was!

Wilhide's provided exceptional flowers and service! Our wedding coordinator and the wedding venue staff said they were blown away with the centerpieces and quality of work that Wilhide's provided for our wedding ceremony and reception. They commented on how they see wedding flowers and decor nearly every weekend but when they walked into the reception tent they knew that it was a top notch florist that had worked on our wedding. Charyl was extremely helpful and willing to do whatever was needed to make us happy. She went out of her way to make us feel wonderful about using Wilhide's. We are so happy we chose Wilhide's for our flowers!

My mother and I purchased our dresses from Annapolis Formal. Dora and Flavia were extremely friendly and helpful from the first day I walked in to look at dresses. It was the first dress shop we visited and Flavia probably gave me 20 dressed to try on. Even though I found the dress I ended up purchasing, I still wanted to check out other places. That night when we got home, I called Dora to tell her how wonderful the staff was at their shop and how they shined in comparision to some of the stuffy, rude and unfriendly staff we encountered at other bridal boutiques.
We eneded up going back to Annapolis Formal, purchasing my bridal gown and then my mom purchased her dress from them as well. Service was professional and personal. They met specific requests and made me feel great! Anna the tailor was so sweet and helpful as well and finished my final fitting changes in less then a week!
I have reccommended them to several recently engaged friends and think they were by far the best place to buy my dress!

Bialek's is awesome! The guitarist for our ceremony (John Ware) and the DJ for our reception (Dan Goldman) were professional and fantastic! Dan kept the music pumping and the guests on the dance floor! He met our specific requests and was always accomadating. John Ware provided beautiful acoustic music prior to, during and after the outdoor ceremony. Guests commented on both Dan and John's performances and expressed how impressed they were with both of them.
What guests didn't know is that just days before the wedding our orginal guitarist became extremely ill and was hospitalized. Not only did I receive an immediate email from the orginal guitarist (from his hospital bed) but that email was immediately followed up with a phone call from John Ware, the new guitaist, and an emails and phone call from Bialek's explaining the situation but also providing a solution.
I am extremely impressed with the effort on their behalf to make sure everything was perfect. I spoke to John that night for quite a while to discuss my vision for the ceremony and he made me feel very relaxed about the switch.
We "shopped" a few other DJ before finding Bailek's. We ultimately chose Bailek's after meeting with Dan and feeling at ease with him and having compared prices we thought they were a great value.
My husband, my parents and I are very happy that we chose Bailek's!

Allison and her team are fabulous! We have received SO many compliments from the day our invitations went out! We also used Allison for table numbers, ceremony fans and Mr./Mrs. signs and everyone who sees their work raves about it. We are so thankful that we were introduced to Allison and are extremely pleased with all of her work! They ROCK!
