We brought snacks, appetizers, and drinks to the owner's house in Highland Park and had such a memorable night! It was so meaningful for the bride to make her bouquet, as well as the boutonnière for her groom. With careful instructions from staff, all of us, from ages 21-80+, had a delightful time putting all of the wedding flowers together! They turned out amazing and I highly recommend to any bride for her wedding day to choose this insanely fun and special option.

The idea of bringing the bar home sounded good, and I found Steven's website for mixology classes at home. It was definitely within our price range, and I worked with Steven to customize the drinks for the bride's favorite liquors (whiskey and scotch) that also worked with our art deco glamour, Gatsby-esque party theme. Steven was teaching a class, so his business partner Randi arrived right on time to do the set-up at our location, and she was just so sweet. I had a nice time getting to know her before the party started. Steven arrived a bit later, but was just there to observe; Randi was great at teaching! None of us had ever done any *real* bartending or mixologying (I think I just verbified a verb that was previously nounified...*grammatical mind blown*), and Randi was great at helping us learn the ropes. She also introduced all of the drinks really well, teaching us the basics of what makes a drink a cocktail, and the basic structure for how to experiment on our own (I found that part particularly exciting, and have even made a cocktail or two at home already!) I think the resounding favorite from the group was the French 75 - it was so good! Even our group's pickiest eater/drinker enjoyed her drinks, which is saying something! I would highly recommend Steven's business to anyone looking to do a home party! Very affordable, customizable, and just a ton of fun. It was especially fun with a room full of lightweights!

Not only does Steven give a brief history of the liquor or cocktail you would be working with, but you get to experiment (and try) both classic and modern versions of all of your favorite cocktails.

I am Samantha, an international student from China. As for a bride, I always wanted a Western…read morewedding ceremony rather that a traditional crowded Chinese one. When I studied at Pitt, I love the Heinz Memorial Chapel a lot so my husband and I decided to have our wedding there after my graduation. At first, I thought I could handle all the wedding details by myself to save the money but then I figured out that mission impossible. I would have my wedding, my graduation project and final research paper at the same time! I would be an insane bride! So we started looking for wedding planners and Shari was the first one we contacted. Her professionalism, experienced attitude and thoughtful consideration really impressed us. After a few comparison with other wedding planners, we had Shari's assistant Andrea as our wedding planner. Andrea is the perfect one. She is nice, easy to communicate, thoughtful and very professional. I have no idea of how an American wedding goes like and she was so patient to explain all the details to me. She helped the most when we picking up all the vendors due to my budget. As my husband was working in Beijing, China by the time I was preparing the wedding, Andrea was the most helpful one to me. I can't thank her more for spending the last six months with me. Without her effort, I couldn't have such a beautiful wedding. I had a wedding prepare folder with 12 wedding vendors lists and she was always there when we had to meet with them. We almost spent every week together. I did a dual-language wedding ceremony and reception as our parents can't understand English. Andrea and her team coordinated that point with all the other vendors and we made it! Everything went through so well and our parents were grateful and happy too. For the wedding day, I just felt a little worried of the wedding party as we were not familiar with the American wedding. I knew Andrea would take care the rest of my wedding and make it perfect. I was so busy and anxious by the graduation ceremony on the morning and wedding on the evening. She helped all the other things as we planned and all of a sudden the dream came true. Thank you Andrea for being my wedding coordinator and being there with more as a friend and a sister. I wish you the best as always. 我是一个在匹大读书的国际生，一直梦想有一个西式的婚礼，因为我和我先生都不是很喜欢国内那样有点乱哄哄的婚礼。当我们参观过匹大的亨氏纪念堂以后，就决定要在这里举行婚礼。一开始我还以为自己能操办所有的事情，但看了下计划以后觉得就是变成超人也没办法在同一个时间段内又要结婚又要完成毕业设计还有最后的论文，所以我们就找了Shari作参考。在了解我们的预算以后，她推荐了她的助手Andrea作为我们的婚礼策划。 Andrea是一个非常细心，有耐心和易于沟通的人。我和她说自己不了解任何美国婚礼的习俗于是她不厌其烦地和我解释每一个细节应该怎么做，又代表了什么。在这半年的合作中，因为我先生一直在北京工作，所以Andrea反而变成了我最亲近的朋友和帮手。我们几乎每周都有见面去挑选各种婚礼需要定的合作方或者谈论婚礼细节和安排。她非常为我考虑方方面面，我们很感动。 因为有些从国内来的宾客，包括我们的父母不懂英文，所以婚礼仪式和晚宴都是双语的。Andrea与所有婚礼团队都很尽力去完成这一点并且让这个婚礼完美。我在婚礼当天除了担心一些人员安排以外其他都没有操心。Andrea让我们的婚礼梦想成真。 我想如果在这边的华人朋友需要找专业婚礼策划的话，Andrea和Shari都应该是有经验的可以提高国际服务的专业人员了。个人认为，虽然婚庆的价格和国内来说是比较贵的，但是真的非常值得。整个美国团队都很专业，让我们很放心。也没有什么坐地起价或者多要服务费等情况产生。合同书说的是什么，就是什么。 谢谢Andrea的辛勤付出，祝好！

Sometimes life goes a little more quickly than you realize!…read more Shari recently helped us the day of our daughter's Confirmation. We decided at the last minute to mark the event with a little celebration. We only had a couple of weeks before the ceremony...the date just snuck up on us! Shari's consultation ensured that we didn't miss any details. Her recommendations and suggestions made the decision process so much easier...we could trust what she advised & just go with it because she has so much experience! The day of the event, Shari came early, coordinated with the caterer, & made sure everything was set. It was a blessing in disguise having her that day because the service went long. Some guests arrived before we even got home! The transformation in our home from before the ceremony to after when Shari had everything set up was amazing. We enjoyed the event that much more because she took away my worries about taking care of guests. Instead of rushing around, I was able to relax and enjoy our friends and family and some cake! I'm lucky to say Shari is a friend of mine, but my comments here are completely genuine. Her assistance was invaluable. She made the dynamic of the event much less stressful which was worth every penny...my husband will attest to that! Fortunately for me having an incredible event planner as a friend made it possible for us to enjoy this milestone in our daughter's life.

It was a great balance between dance party and organized games. Everything from musical chairs to a limbo contest and line dances like the macarena.
