Every time I called Jessica to change something or if I had questions in general, she insisted that I come in and see. Finally when I made my mind up, Jessica was there to reassure me that everything would look gorgeous(she talked me out of a tacky table cloth!)
The day before my wedding I took all of our favors and other décor and Jessica and Kyle were there to tell me everything would be fine.
The morning of my wedding, I went down to the venue to make sure nothing else needed to be done(my ocd), Jessica and Kyle both shared a bottle of champagne with me to tell me everything would be fine.
Thanks ladies for such an amazing experience!!

LaMalfa was amazing. They took care of every detail. The venue was beautiful, apps and champagne were delivered to my bridal party to enjoy between photos after the ceremony. They handled every phone call and item I wanted in the room with pleasure. It was absolutely perfect. Every one of my guests raved about it being the best wedding ever. And the food was freaking amazing.

Joe and I got married Nov 17 2018 and I have to say that Martin Lamalfa and his team made our day the most beautiful and well planned wedding, it was even better than I imagined. Everyone raved about the beautiful Venue and the Delicious food. Martin and his team went above and beyond and I dont have a single negative thing to say. Professional and courteous and most helpful from the biggest to smallest concerns or questions I had while planning. Martin was also very accommodating to all of our wants,concerns and needs. I would recommend Lamalfa over and over to anyone that wants a Beautiful wedding. Thank You Martin for making our day as special as it could possibly be.
