Valentines Under The Stars

Robin cohosted an intimate Valentines Date night for us this year and I was so impressed! They took care of every little detail and clearly put loads of love and thought into this event. From the yummy food, to the table decorations, desserts, games and more... they planned it all. I would absolutely trust her to plan my next event!

Blessed Bride

Robin and her team made sure my day was perfect! She truly listened to me and captured the vision I had for my special day. Robin kept me calm during the stressful days of planning and reminded me of the big picture - I was marrying my best friend regardless of the type of flowers I picked! She also was very aware of my budget and made sure I got everything I wanted for the right price. You will be in great hands with this lady by your side! Love you, Robin!

Three weddings, so far

Robin and her Team made all of my wedding dreams come true! I am a busy gal, and probably the only person in the world that does not use Pinterest. So, I gave Robin my notes and drawings on some napkins, and she ran with it! It was a country fairy tale wedding. Her attention to detail is amazing and she went over and beyond to make our day perfect. She has also planned and perfected two of our three daughter's weddings. One was a destination wedding and one was a country chic wedding, both were also perfection! I could not say enough how much we appreciate Robin and her amazing Team!

Robin was amazing from start to finish. I would recommend her to anyone needing assistance planning an event. She is very responsive and organized. I wasn't a fan of how the sign in tree turned out, and she went back to the artist and had it redone until I was happy. She doesn't do it alone though. Her team was just as wonderful with the decor and they were so friendly and helpful during the wedding.

It was a privilege to work with The Robin's Nest for many reasons. The bride requested an outdoor vintage-country wedding and after exchanging a few photos via Pinterest with Robin, she knew exactly what the bride wanted.
Her work and attention to detail exceeded our expectations in many ways. She saved the day with her quick thinking and problem solving skills. We forgot to mention to Robin that certain floral arrangements were needed and she made them literally minutes before the wedding began. The bride was missing her garter and Robin made one out of leftover lace just before the ceremony. She worked tirelessly outside in 90+ degree weather for several hours with a smile and a calm attitude. She even assisted the caterer when needed. The flowers arrangements, topiary balls, bouquets, and boutonnières were beautiful, precisely what the bride wanted and more, they had that special, unique touch.

Her experience and passion are evident in her work. She was always accessible either through phone calls, texts or email. She is a professional who is kind, thoughtful, warm and funny. Her witty personality makes her a joy to work with.

It was an incredibly enjoyable experience and we highly recommend using The Robin’s Nest.

Robin went above and beyond what was expected of her, and made my special day exceptionally amazing. I had no concerns or worries during my wedding planning experience because Robin made sure to take care of every small detail, which lets be honest are the most important ones. Everyone commented on how beautiful everthing looked. I would definately recommend her to anyone who wants an elegantly and tastfully done wedding.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
