Exceptional Service and Attention to Detail!

I cannot recommend Creative Affairs Inc. enough! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make sure our daughter’s party was a success. Their attention to detail was outstanding—they answered every question I had (and trust me, there were many!) and, when they didn’t have an immediate answer, they quickly got the information I needed. It was such a relief to have a vendor who was proactive and communicative throughout the entire process.

They also provided invaluable guidance on the best ways to plan the event, offering suggestions that made everything run smoothly. On top of that, they gave me a list of other recommended vendors for food, rentals, decor, and more, which saved me so much time and stress.

What truly stood out was the personal touch they added. On their own time, they even made my daughter a beautiful gift box, which was such a thoughtful gesture. Additionally, they took the time to help me fully understand the contracts I had with other vendors, making sure I was comfortable with all the details and avoiding any surprises.

The list of things they helped with goes on and on—honestly, they exceeded all expectations and truly made the planning process a breeze. If you’re looking for a vendor who is not only professional but also caring and detail-oriented, Creative Affairs Inc. is the one to choose. We couldn’t have pulled off such an amazing event without them!

All the help i needed from planning to the big day!!

We loved working with Creative Affairs. Amanda made us feel comfortable from the start and we knew it would be a good fit. Dana was our planner and she really helped make my vision come to life. Gave a ton of recommendations on vendors, decor, and all around how to plan a wedding! She made us feel so comfortable in the process leading up to the big day. Going back and forth with the vendors, making sure contracts and invoices were set, making diagrams...everything! She was so accommodating on all of my last-minute changes and relaying everything to the vendors. On our wedding day Dana was on top of it all and kept us at ease during our wedding making sure we were taken care of and anything we asked of her. Everyone said it was the best wedding they had ever been to!!

Amazing experience from start to finish

We used Creative Affairs for our wedding coordination in April. We had previously hired a different company that wasn't a good fit and then met with Amanda and loved her and her team. We booked with Amanda and Caitlyn was our coordinator for the months leading up to it. Talk about a night and day experience of working with Creative Affairs vs. the previous vendor. Both Amanda and Caitlyn were organized, took notes, listened to our wants and concerns and guided us with great recommendations through the process. 2 other women showed up to help the day of our wedding and every one was equally as nice and on top of it. I am very particular and an interior designer by trade so attention to detail was important and each of the women on Amanda's team exceeded our expectations. I was able to enjoy the evening and not sweat the details. When we walked in to the reception tent reveal, everything was perfectly executed. Caitlyn was extremely professional and proactive when it came to getting all the other vendors for our wedding on the same page, and there were several! We cannot express what a positive experience this was. They deserve 10 stars!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
