It was so beautiful and now we have amazing pictures to keep as memories from our baby shower. Melissa was kind and flexible. She was creative yet cared about my input!

Melissa was so kind, encouraging, beyond helpful and guided me every step of the way! She is so creative and talented and helped create the most magical night! She really works so hard and is so involved in the fine details of it all and I really could not have done this without her! I feel like I was able to create a relationship with her thru the planning process and I personally think that's extremely valuable and 10x better than regular customer service! Above and beyond in the best way! Thank you Melissa, for answering all my questions so graciously and for helping me with ideas, making this all possible, and everything in between! It really blessed me and my family! I would absolutely recommend this company for any and all events! You will NOT be disappointed!

AN INCREDIBLE ROMANTIC EXPERIENCE!!…read more I recently came across "The Table Service" and instantly wanted to try it. Great customer service, both Gloria and Stephanie are very sweet and communicative throughout the entire process until the day of set up. They both accommodated to all of my needs and requests in order to make my date extra special. Definitely worth it and I highly recommend it!! As for the cheeseboard platter, I personally think it's worth the price, delicious and convenient. If you are looking for a romantic idea, look no further. The Table Service is a must and they guarantee to beat the average price! Guarantee! I am telling all my friends about it. -Jay

I want to start off by saying that I wasn't able to even experience their services due to very poor…read morecommunication and lack of clarification from their part as a business. As well as a lack of cultural awareness from their part. I emailed the table service about a giveaway for my child. (A giveaway posted on their story) They emailed me, misleading as to having been selected for the giveaway. Somehow contacting me was more of a step to be considered for the giveaway rather than actually being selected. ( I would have not bothered to even email anyone at all to ask about details ) They should have stated with the first email that they select who they prefer to pick for the give away. Suggestions : 1. Put a disclaimer / details about your needs for the giveaway. Ex: "We are doing a promotional giveaway! We set up one of our services and enjoy the set up for a gathering of your own! " I came up with that as I was writing this. Simple easy and the point. 2.Work on following back with phone, emails, text messages. Get in the same page of who will manage your communications as a business. Gloria, If you as a business owner cannot handle the communication tasks, hire workers to support you. 3. Be open and respect cultural belief in practices of the misuse of "teepees". I ask for no teepees. Actually asked for less of the service. I regret not being more direct of how you are appropriating a cultural and it's lodge but I didn't because I was hoping you would be culturally respectful. But since you took it to be defensive I'm saying it now. You are appropriating sacred symbolism to northern native folks. If that offends you imagine how it rightfully makes native folks uncomfortable that you offer it as part of your profit making. 5. Like I mentioned in our private messages, Do better at communicating your intentions when doing a giveaway. Lastly, remember you are in stolen native indigenous land. The least you can do is respect when someone isn't comfortable using your props for an event and you trying to spin it around and back out of a giveaway. Just don't do give away a .

This review is for Suhainah and the BEL team who helped us organize our wedding reception…read more The day of our event, Suhainah and a group of 4-5 other women went above and beyond to make sure our wedding reception went smoothly. They coordinated with all vendors well, directed guests and made the experience stress free. Everyone was so sweet to us and our dog, Rocky. We brought Rocky to our party and they made sure she was taken care of the entire time. It was so thoughtful. Rocky says the team gets 5 stars!

Horrible experience, stay away!…read more This is a review for Eliza at BEL Events for her wedding planning services. We met Eliza at our venue 8 month before our wedding date. During the first session she presented herself well, and she talked and bragged a lot about her 18 yrs of experience in event planning and stories about how she handles wedding situations. So, we thought she is the right event planner for us and signed a contract. After signing the contract and making the payment, she was very hard to find and we did not see the expected action from her side, and every time we followed up, her response was: "don't worry I will manage everything before the wedding day". We were asking for the basics of planning such as timeline, vendor recommendations (a few to choose from) and communications (which was part of the contract) but not no action except a quote of her own rental service. We were getting closer to the wedding date and her lack of action made us so worried and very frustrated. Eventually we had to get involved and did almost 90% of the work ourselves. She was very hard to find but even when we could talk to her, she would create more unnecessary problems to an extant that my wife had panic attacks after a few meetings we had with her. 2 month before our wedding she caused so much anxiety and frustration that we decided to end our contract with her and find another planner. Thankfully, our new planner was amazing and our Wedding planning went very smooth after that, and the event was as wonderful as we could imagine! With way lower cost than what Eliza had proposed! After I requested to cancel the contract she disappeared and never responded to our emails, which is very unprofessional. Here is a list of a few issues from our experience of working with here: 1- Accessibility: every time we had a question or needed to talk to her, it was taking several days until she gets back to us. With irrelevant excuses, like she would show me her busy google calendar! 2- Push to use her own services as vendors: Per her contract she had to suggest different vendors so we can choose. But since she has rental and flower services, she was arguing so much to stop us from even looking at other options! She charges unnecessarily expensive! By doing a little research, we found our vendors and saved at least 50% with same or better quality! 3- Nonsense arguments and rude attitude: In many occasions she was just insisting on holding the event the way SHE wants, without paying attention to our request or desire. Every time we requested something, her answer was: "I don't want MY event to be that way or I don't want MY guests to be that way"!!! With a condescending attitude emphasizing that "I have 18 yrs of experience and I know what to do"!!! Any simple request would become a long story and unnecessary argument. In one occasion my wife requested that guests throw flower petals while walking out of aisle, and she immediately said: "No!, you can't do that, I don't want my cleaning crew spend time on cleaning the petals"!!!! In another occasion Eliza was insisting on only using her recommended valet service (which was quoting more than double the price of the service we eventually used) and on top of it she was forcing us to rent extra parking lot out of venue and pay extra for shuttle service!!!! While the venue had enough capacity! And when I respectfully said: I am confident that the venue has enough capacity for parking, she got very angry and said: "in that case tell all your guests to use UBER and they can't drive their own car"!!! It was a nightmare working with BEL Events and I don't recommend her service due to lack of professionalism and decency in her business.

I had such a wonderful experience working with The Simple Luxe for my son's first birthday party…read morethat was farmers market themed! From start to finish they were incredibly easy to communicate with- responsive, attentive, and truly listened to what I wanted. Lisa and her team brought my vision to life, and it was even better than I imagined. What really stood out was their willingness to work within our budget without compromising on quality or creativity. They not only designed and set up all the balloons, backdrops, installations but they also spent extra time helping me decorate and design the farmers market with the custom gifts I made and/or purchased for my guests. The entire process felt stress-free and enjoyable. Everything turned out beautifully and we received so many compliments. I am truly honored to be The Simple Luxe's first farmers market themed client and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and kind vendor who goes above and beyond. If you have been following them on social media like I was and have an upcoming event - reach out to them and get a quote! You will not be disappointed!

We also wanted to include our late dog in the design, and she incorporated him so beautifully. Seeing the attention to detail in their previous work is what convinced us to move forward, and all of our guests were blown away by how everything turned out. Jasmine was also a pleasure to work with. She was very communicative, easy to talk to, and made the entire process stress-free from start to finish. She really listened to our ideas, gave us time to make decisions, and helped us stay within our budget. Huge thanks to the setup and cleanup team as well. They were punctual and respectful of the time we had the venue booked. My wife and I would definitely recommend The Simple Luxe to anyone (if it's within your budget). Their hard work and dedication to their clients truly shows in their work.

Hands down one of the most creative, dreamy, special ways to spend my mom's 50th birthday. The…read moresurprise was for her, but I was extra surprised myself. Booking the event was extremely easy, I read other reviews about the planners not reaching out prior to the event, but the truth is that you don't really need to hear from them. All of the plans are in writing when you sign the agreement, the location and time are set prior to the date (also in writing). The day the event, the crew reached out and let me know they were setting up along with texting me a location pin. The Picnic Collective went above and beyond with the details. The flowers were beautiful, the grazing boards were delicious, everything was absolutely beautiful! I purchased the sandwiches for each guest and they were yummy. The only extra things I brought myself were a cake and alcohol. (mini champagne bottles and seltzers along with a trash bag to keep the alcohol bottles out of sight :) They provide pretty glass looking cups and it made us feel extra fancy. The blue tooth speaker was a nice touch to set the mood with music. Overall 10/10 I would hire them again for another special occasion. I was so happy with everything. If your picnic is at the beach like most are, I recommend arriving 30min early, plan ahead because parking is a mother. For reference I worked with Kristen and she was really fast at replying via text.

One thing that would be helpful would be the communication after requesting and placing a deposit. Everything was done online via email, but I would have loved to actually speak or text with a live representative during that time and after they asked for the final payment before the actual day. They also asked for a tip prior to the day, but we opted to tip on the day because again, I had already paid for the entire experience before the experience. Thanking God it all worked out!

My husband and I were so lucky to work with Katie at B&B as our planner throughout this process, and she was such a blessing to have in our corner!!! To start, she provided great organizational resources that immediately made everything feel like it was manageable, with her detailed checklist really being the backbone of this entire process for us. We really looked forward to our check-ins with her because not only were they productive, but always a collaborative effort between us and her. She always made us feel heard, and when we had an idea, nothing ever seemed impossible to execute, as she helped us figure out how to make things we wanted happen. We opted for her services about a year out from our wedding day, and through every step, check point, and to-do list item, she walked us through anything we needed and always delivered when we needed her and even above and beyond. In addition to how supportive she was throughout the planning process, she also coordinated our whole wedding day flawlessly. She thinks of how things are going to be executed seamlessly and does the work of problem solving with you beforehand so that the day goes as smoothly as possible, and that it did for us. She's extremely professional and also did wonderfully at communicating with our vendors to ensure we were all on the same page. The success of our day is largely due to her being our planner, and we recommend her x100000. Thank you, Katie!!!
