DIGC really is an open canvas with a lot of flexibility. Whether you want to be inside or out, or a combination on the large back covered patio, this is an excellent location. Full of beautiful views and yet very private, this place offers it all at a fraction of what others have. With the right people this place can trullly take on any look or transformation and yet still provide the best of environments.

I can not say enough about this caterer. I knew within a moment of meeting Lauren, that Catering by Design was for us. From the flexible menu, to the visual creativity, everything was perfect. Not afraid to try new things, or to step completely out of the box, there is no other caterer who could have provided such a wonderful, plated dinner. I have received numerous compliments on the efficency, professionalism, and overall quality of the food. I will definitely use this caterer in the future for all my catering needs. You do, trully get what you pay for, and i wanted the dinners to have the look of an upscale creative gourmet restaurant and i got just what i had hoped for and more. Because above the excellent food and amazingly gorgeous presentation, the service and staff went above and beyond our wildest expectations.

We have to say that our experience with Becky has not ended as our event has passed, but rather we look forward to many more years of life and having becky to document those moments for us. I personally am into photography, and so i knew or at least thought, finding someone with unique vision and style would be a challenge. And then we met Becky and from that moment have not been dissappointed in any way. And although we only have 16 photos from the wedding, as we are waiting on the rest, if we only had those 16 i would be more than happy. Those few were more than i could have hopped and have captured the feeling, and the closeness of our wedding. And as a photographer myself, the money we spent, although high for some, is not trully a lot when one actually sees the post-event process and all the time consumed after the event that goes into the art which are Becky Johnson photos.

I have to say, that for me, your event was an amazing experience. The amount of love and care between you two and your families made my journey that much easier. It was straightforward and beautiful in every aspect.

I thank you both for making me a part of your day and a part of your lives. And Erika, I plan on having you in front of the camera more, rather than you behind it!!!

I have to say that we have had many compliments on our cake, on both the taste as well as the creative design. And it really was beautiful, however, i guess it just wasnt what we expected, and maybe we misunderstood the design as it was proposed to us. Additionally our flowers i believed were to be sugar flowers and yet instead we ended up with fondant. But like i said, it was beautiful and very good, even if it wasnt what we expected.

RJ is the total package. Beyond his extraordinary talent with music and keeping people moving and the crowd alive, his production crew aspect saved what would have other wise been a drab and colorless wedding. The uplighting he provided, at a fraction of what other vendors charge, made all the difference for us and made everything look and feel so much warmer and intimate. Additionally, his misting fans made quite an impact and helped to allieviate the heat and missery of an outdoor june florida wedding. Without a doubt, i would recommend him for any event, and his professionalism as well as his personality and ability to see the event from every angle, really contributed to what we are being told, is one of the most beautiful and enjoyable weddings anyone has ever attended.

I have to admit that during our process of planning, the invitations and printed item costs felt heavy to me. But this was ONLy due to my ignorance on the stationary end. Andrea printed all of our stuff from the SAve the dates, to the table names and menus, and i can not tell you how perfectly every item flowed throughout our wedding. From the designs to the final product everything was A+. I can not convey how many compliments we have received on the invitations alone. And they were trully a work of art. It is because of the quality of service, the creative expression and the value we got that we will continue to use Paper Presence for all our future stationary needs.
