Absolutely beautiful flowers!!! Cristina's arragements were outstanding. She is a joy to work with and extremely flexible. The flowers at the church, reception and for the wedding party were awesome and we received many compliments on how unusual and unique they were. My daughter told Cristina what she wanted, primarily eggplant and green color combinations and some rare flowers like lady slipper orchids, and she did wonders. The reception was at the Grand Hall in the Houston Museum of Natural Science which is a huge venue and not easy to beautify but the place was beautiful with the Cristina's magic from Fresh Blooms of Houston.

Gina baked the cakes for my daugther's wedding. There were just outstanding! The bride's cake was pale purple with edible orchids and so yummy. The real eye catcher was the groom's cake (red velvet) which was made as an exact replica of a James Coney Island hot dog box including 3 chili cheese hot dogs and tater tots. There were huge gatherings around the cake during the night and it was a lot of fun for the groom and his groomsmen to cut and eat. Gina did wonders with these cakes and we were extremely happy with the taste and looks of these cakes.

The Pictures provided the music for my daughter's wedding reception at the Houston Museum of Natural Science in late August. She had attended a wedding before where this band played and she was loved it. It was the only band she really wanted for her wedding. Great choice. We are still receiving compliments from our guests with regards to this band. Some of the comments are:
"Awesome band, could not believe that it was a live band and not Journey live"
"Worth whatever they charge and more"
"Best band ever" (this comment was from our wedding photographers who do go to weddings every weekend!)
Many people that would have normally leave before the end stayed because of the band. Thanks so much for helping make the wedding so much fun and memorable to everyone and particularly for the bride and groom.

Harmony strings quartet provided the music for my daughter's church wedding and cocktail hour preceding the reception. They are wonderful musicians and very flexible. They were gracious to share the church performance with the brother of the bride who played guitar during the processional. Melody is a joy to deal with.

I contacted Jessica within the last month of my daughter's wedding. This was a relatively large wedding with nearly 300 guests and a very large wedding party. I only wish I had met Jessica and her team the day my daughter got engaged! Outstanding services and personal touch. As soon as Jessica started working on our last month planning, I had absolutely no worries. She took care of every detail flawlessly and we just relaxed. She ran the church rehearsal, last minute details with the vendors, the reception along with the caterers (City Kitchen), found sparklers for a beautiful send off (a surprise to the bride) and even took care of arranging for the donation of the reception flowers to a nursing home. Since rain was in the forecast the day of the wedding, she bought 20 umbrellas to make sure that the guest would not get wet. Luckily, no rain came. We wanted to pay for the umbrellas but she would not take money for them. She was always prompt with calls, meetings, all services and every little detail. Green Lily Events and Jessica are real gems!
