We were so absolutely glad that we hired Angela to help plan our wedding. Normally I wouldn't have…read moreconsidered hiring a wedding planner. But my mother wanted a slightly more elaborate wedding than I would have planned, and I was in an unfamiliar city, and having trouble finding resources. She helped me pull the wedding together in two months, with a very satisfactory price tag in the end. Now I think that if you can find a good wedding planner to work with, nearly every wedding should have a wedding planner. After all it's a fairly complicated event, with so many things that can go wrong; and by definition the couple planning the wedding usually have little experience with planning weddings. First, Angela is an enthusiastic, down to earth, sensible, real person. I got the impression from other interviews I did that among event planners, these are valuable and somewhat uncommon traits. Still, of course, she's got that glamorous side. She's amazingly effective, with a great sense of style of her own, and also very able to work with your style. She's well connected and excellent at digging up new resources, including those with good prices. She takes your budget seriously, and with her ability to comparison shop you get more bang for your buck. I really do believe that the money she saved us paid for her fee, and of course her help went far beyond resource and bargain-finding. Absolutely worth it. My only complaint was that she was stretching herself a little thin. I would have rather paid more, and gotten more of her undiluted focus and energy. But that was in retrospect--of course when we first hired her we were skeptical of the whole thing, and her affordable fee was reassuring. Also if you can hire your wedding planner further in advance of your wedding than we did, I'm sure that would make everything smoother! Our wedding was a fantastic, fun experience--not everyone can say that--and it was in large part thanks to Angela.

My boyfriend had booked through Manprit for our friends wedding in Jamaica. With the months leading…read moreup to the trip he was diagnosed with a severe condition. We communicated everything to Manprit with the worry that he may not be fit to fly. She let us know that a reimbursement could happen and also requested a dr note that he did fulfill for her from his specialist. She continued to take the rest of the payment from him. So here we are, months and months of chasing her through emails looking for an answer and being ignored to the point where I had to find her on Facebook to get a reply. He's been on leave from work and especially during these financially trying times, you can imagine the stress. She continues to point the finger at WestJet when I've spoken to them on numerous accounts and they've confidently let me know no refunds are issued through them but to be discussed with the travel agent. Unfortunately we made a rookie mistake and didn't get everything in writing (some conversations were had over the phone) but who would think you'd get screwed over like this. Bottom line, Manprit I expect some type of integrity from a women who owns her own business. This isn't how it's done, It's down right criminal what you're doing. Be a women of your word. Can't speak to her wedding planning half but guests tread with caution when dealing with her.

Everything was very elegant and beautiful. My cousin was very particular about it all and she never once complained...

I had heard good things about this business but maybe that was just because they don't have much…read morecompetition. I found out about them at a wedding fair, where I took a flyer that listed various discounts. The first problem I encountered was that the quote I was given didn't include the advertised special prices. In fact, I had to fight to get the discounts. I should have known then not to trust them. But I loved the artificial willow trees I had seen in the flyer. Each tree was constructed of a trunk wrapped in black fabric, with thick curly willow branches spray painted black and attached at the top. the one they had in their studio was 14 feet tall but they promised that they would have six 8-foot trees ready for my wedding. The trees (and their descriptions) were put into our contract and it was one of the tings I was most excited about. At our wedding, however, they brought large vases containing a few curly willow sprigs. They looked nothing like what they had shown me and our reception looked very sparse. I was too busy that day to address the issue and we left right away for our honeymoon. We got no monetary compensation for the poor substitution they gave us and never received an apology or explanation. I was very disappointed with their dishonesty and lack of customer service. Don't hire these people for your wedding.
