The Bastonished team were amazing! We came to them with a very interesting idea of having a themed wedding! A theme that could have quickly gone wrong! But the team delivered beyond our wildest dreams!! I would do it all over again if I could do it with this team!

Amazing Wedding Planner

My wedding planning experience was better than I could’ve imagined because my husband and I decided to hire Melissa as our wedding planner. She made a great first impression on our initial inquiry phone call especially considering we had no previous mutual connections. She has extensive experience, is super professional, very responsive, and has great working relationships with wedding vendors in the industry. She is great to work with and I felt, always had our best interest in mind. My husband and I were truly able to be present and enjoy every moment of our wedding weekend without any of the added stress that generally comes with the organization of the day. As a type A personality bride Melissa truly exceeded my expectations. I felt my thoughts, ideas, and concerns were always heard and addressed. Melissa and her team take much pride in their work which shows in how they conduct themselves and their performance. For the best wedding planning with an unimaginable wedding day experience book B Astonished Events, you won’t regret the decision.

“Oh, The Places You’ll Go” themed Baby Shower was the BEST!!

I am extremely happy with the help, support, and guidance that B.Astonished Events provided for my baby shower. From the beginning stages of the planning process, Melissa help me to personalize the theme of the Dr. Seuss book, ‘Oh, the Places You’ll Go’ and design a baby shower that was both unique and classy. She understood my desire to have a casual chic event and reached out to vendors on my behalf that could bring my vision to life. All of the vendors were professional, timely, and clearly understood the overall theme of the event, thanks in large part to the mood board, event schedule, and great communication provided by B.Astonished. This is the second event they have planned on my behalf (my epic wedding was also planned by them) and I would gladly use their services again for future events.
