Everything came together wonderfully. I was disappointed that we couldn?t afford a chic place like WOW, but once everything came together I was so happy with it. There was nothing amiss and they did everything I asked for. Plus you can't beat the price. One thing that really pulled it together though was chair covers and table runners which they do not provide, otherwise the chairs are ugly. The food was yummy and everyone liked it. I also like the dance floor and it is very large.

This place is BEAUTIFUL. The acoustics are great and it needs very little decorating because it looks so great! The only problem is that if people are unfamiliar with this location, it can be very difficult to find. I recommend having balloons and a sign to alert people where they need to turn off from the main road.

My other favorite vendor from my wedding. First let me say I love Cary and Stephanie?s style. My engagement pictures came out amazing. Cary has a wonderful way of keeping up the energy even though it is such a long day. He stayed pretty much for the entire reception even though his time was up. We started with pictures at the Moonrise Hotel and because he had never shot there before, he went the day before to scout out the area. I am beyond excited to see the pictures.

Angie was very pleasant to work with. Her prices are great! She arrived on time to drop off the flowers and since she had extra flowers, she made extra bouquets and such at no charge. The flowers were BEAUTIFUL and stayed beautiful for a while afterwards! I loved them so much and they looked great all day and all weekend afterward. The only thing is that she had a flower for my hair and it wouldn't stay in because it was supposed to be put in with straight pins. I am sure there must be a better way.

We got 150 cupcakes in our colors from Sam?s. The dessert was not a huge priority for us and Sam?s got our order correct and they were yummy.

I never hear about this DJ mentioned on the board, but he was wonderful! He came highly recommended from a couple of vendors. He was not cheesy or annoying, he played a lot of the music we listed and nothing that I vetoed. He read the crowd really well and there were always people on the dance floor.

Aimee did a great job with playing the harp. She was super nice and very accommodating. The sound was beautiful and my guests loved the music too.

Doug and his wife were nice to work with. They were unable to come to the rehearsal due to a previous commitment. Everything was satisfactory.

They arrived on time and the limo was very nice. The people I had to contact for setting everything up were matter of fact. I had to contact them to make sure they received everything. I booked very early and did not have any info on pick up locations or definite beginning and end time. About two months before the wedding I called to add more time to our contract and I realized I needed to change the times. They refused to change the times (I wanted 1:30-6:30 and had it ending at 6). There was no conflict with any other client, they just said it was the owner?s policy. The next day a manager called and changed the time for me, but it was a hassle that I shouldn?t have had to deal with considering I was trying to give them more money.

My hair looked great and stayed up all night. She will travel as well so that was a big plus too.

Everyone told me that my makeup looked wonderful and kept asking who did it. It looked great all night. I had two trials. Erin does very natural looking make up. At my first trial, it looked really nice in person, but when I went home, I took a few pictures and it didn?t even look like I was wearing anything. I told Erin of my concerns and she was really nice about it and we did another trial and although it looked heavy to me (I hardly wear any make up) and I wore fake lashes, it looked great and showed up really great in photos! She also travels and I was very happy with my make up and felt pretty.

Erin was super nice. She came to Hendri?s to scope it out since she had never worked there before. The lighting looked awesome and was totally worth it. There was a patterned light shone on the ceiling which was kind of blinding people who stood in the wrong spot, but it looked great too. Lighting really makes a huge difference.

Pamela has so many colors. I used her for chair covers, sashes and table runners. It really pulled the look together and was totally worth it. She is terrible at returning phone calls. Definitely email her and if you don?t hear from her in two days, email again.

By far one of my favorite vendors of my wedding experience. After I had to fire my first coordinator, Yara and Mindy were available to work with me. I am not sure there are words to describe how awesome and invaluable they were. Yara has a way of making everything calm and soothing. Nothing was a problem. By far, hiring them was the best decision that made the wedding as stress free as possible.

At the last minute we decided to take some dance lessons (to specific we only had time to take 3). This place is out in St. Peters, but well worth the drive. Dave ? the owner, is great! He is nice and very good. They just opened their studio a bit ago so they are running great specials. I highly recommend him.
