Angela was absolutely phenomenal. She was always at my disposal especially given that I was planning a Maryland wedding from Texas and my fiance now husband was deployed to Iraq.

I am the bride who appeared on "Who's Wedding Is it Anyway". The eposide is titled "Here comes the Groom", featuring me and my husband, in addition to the homosexual couple. The eposide orginally aired in June, 2007 (2 months after our wedding date) and has aired EVERY MONTH since then. My husband and I continue to get approached by stangers who have seen our wedding on TV. The wedding in which ANGELA served as my coordinator. The wedding in which the announcer says "Baltimore Wedding Planner, Angela Haynes". So Mrs. Disgruntled Bride, please get your facts straight when posting a negitive ad/complaint against someone. You can check Angela's website to view my comment on her services, posted in May, 2007, a month after the wedding. My wedding was a DREAM come true. It was classy, elegant and extravagent..everything I always wanted. This would not have been possible without the extraordinary services rendered by Angela. She is a dynamic wedding planner, and I feel so bleesed that she helped us plan our special event. Mrs. Disgruntled Bride, you can visit the style network's website (mystyle.com) to check the eposide number and schedule.
