A Perfect DISASTER

I almost didn’t write this review in order to avoid reliving the stressful nightmare that was my wedding planning process, but I felt that if I could prevent another bride from having the same experience, I should. This vendor turned the months before and even my wedding weekend into the most stressful time of my life, and I am far from a bridezilla. Problems in the months, weeks and DAYS before included: not confirming menu choices and options, repeatedly not returning calls or e-mails to the bride/mother-of-the bride, assuring us that musicians had been booked for the church and reception and then (after I called to ask the musicians a question) finding out SIX days before the wedding that they never had been – and that they were busy that day, forgetting to deliver the programs to the church, not printing out and putting the complete readings up at the altar for the ceremony as planned (yep, biiiig pause and and then…crickets), messing up the seating plan at the reception and then putting out empty seating envelopes for guests, serving different food than we had decided upon (though it was good), forgetting the bouquet toss…I could go on and on about their unprofessional work and unkind treatment towards us, but any bride should see from the above that they are not equipped to act as event planners. My advice (beyond not using this vendor for your wedding!) would be to surround yourself with wonderful friends and family and remember what is important – even with all the things that went wrong, our parents worked heroically to salvage the day and our friends proved that love and laughter really is all you need.
