We cannot recommend Melissa and Simple Celebrations enough! From the very beginning of the planning…read moreprocess, Melissa was incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and such a joy to work with. She went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of, and her experience was invaluable throughout the entire process. On our wedding day, everything came together seamlessly thanks in large part to Melissa. She thought of so many little details that Adam and I never would have considered, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy every moment. Her guidance, professionalism, and calm presence gave us so much peace of mind. The rentals were absolutely beautiful and exactly what we envisioned. Everything was delivered and set up perfectly, making our venue look even more stunning than we imagined. Thank you, Melissa, for helping make our wedding day so special. We are so grateful for everything you did and would recommend Simple Celebrations to any couple looking for someone who genuinely cares about making their day perfect! -- Maggie & Adam

A Dream Wedding, Made Effortless, thanks to Melissa and Simple Celebrations!…read more Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but Melissa and her team at Simple Celebrations turned what could have been a stressful process into something truly joyful.

A beautiful setting for a wedding. There are several options for the wedding ceremony and…read morereception. While the setting is very nice, it is not very handicapped accessible. Restroom facilities are in a portable trailer with steps and are a bit apart from the barn. If the ground is wet, it would probably be slippery and muddy. The barn is not insulated, and if it is warm, they run big fans, which would be pretty loud. We were there on a chilly night and it was quite cold.

Disaster- not worth risking this experience vs him on a "good" day, because he did NOTHING that was asked of him. Really ruined the experience the kids were looking for. Sooo nice the 1st conversation, but he clearly has his own agenda; apparently HE knows what to play for a wedding(and very outdated..Dancing Queen, YMCA- really!?) Where to start...he asked for a song list, but only played 2 songs from it. Did not play what we wanted for the cocktail hour. Played a different version of the bride/groom song that they submitted and had practiced dancing to-again-REALLY?! PLAYED A SONG HE WAS ASKED NOT TO PLAY!!! Rude when questioned, and yes, smoked all night and left his butts in the yard. He wants a cookie cutter wedding where he can do loud obnoxious announcements all night; can not customize apparently. Made a bad mistake paying him upfront- no response when I asked for money back since HE DID NOT DO WHAT HE WAS PAID TO DO. Just a disaster, he ruined the atmosphere the kids were hoping, and PAID for. DO NOT RISK YOUR DAY!

Weeks later, Rick's behavior continues to disappoint with every dodged call and text. After being paid a $400 deposit and $1,000+ cash for the services that needed to be provided) Rick has a friend of his come with his son and they sit on their phones, not paying attention to any directions that were given and rehearsed months prior... ABC Disc Jockey is the pinnacle of a disappointing. A guest described their work ethic at the event as "Jabba the Hut and Peter Griffin, if they were screen-babies, scrolling TikTok". I would not recommend contacting ABC Disc Jockey for any weddings or parties.

Stay as far away from the Rochester Wedding Barn as possible!…read more They only good thing I can say about this place is that the venue is truly beautiful. Our wedding went off without a hitch, but that was mostly because my wife and I are amazing at planning + organization. If I didn't stay on top of these people every day for 10 months, they would have ruined our wedding. The barn owners have absolutely no idea how to run a business or provide customer service. They are by far the most disorganized and incompetent people I have ever had the displeasure of working with. They are deceivingly nice on the phone and in person, but impossible to get in touch with when you actually need them. DON'T BE FOOLED. They have absolutely no communication skills whatsoever, so if you want to have your wedding here, be prepared for A LOT of unnecessary stress, phone calls, misleading conversations, hidden fees, missing payments, lousy contracts, and a ton of ridiculous restrictions. Here is a short list of simple things the owner DJ/Dwayne and his brother David E. managed to screw up: 1) I paid 100% cash upfront and 3 weeks before my wedding, they said the payment went missing and that I was required to provide a receipt. Every time we talked to them we had to give them all our information as if it were the first time we had met. 2) They told us that cocktail tables, mounted industrial fans, and straw bails were included in the barn, as we saw on multiple tours. During our rehearsal 3 days before our wedding, the barn had no fans, straw, or tables, and we were told that was an extra cost. 3) They called us many times leading up to our wedding to confirm all the wrong information. They had no idea who our vendors were and even forgot who WE WERE a few times. They also call rudely late around 9pm - 11pm because the barn is a constant afterthought. 4) They did not provide any toilet paper or trash containers. We literally bought our own toilet paper and had to assign people to walk trash out to the dumpster without getting attacked by their guard dog next door. 5) They cannot do basic math. When I asked for a breakdown of costs for the tables, chairs, and linens, they denied my request. Finally, when they gave me the breakdown, it was incorrect. I only discovered this because I took the time to double check their work. They also don't let you choose your own vendor so they can make a profit!! 6) They provided us with about 8 different phone numbers and we could never reach them on any number. They take A LOT of vacations during their busy season. Every time we DID get a hold of them to confirm a time to meet at the barn they said "just call us on your way over because we might not be there". 7) They wouldn't let us do a sparkler send-off in the drive way because of fire restrictions even though there was a fire pit CLOSER to the barn that was allowed. Thankfully I convinced them to let us do it anyway. 8) No one was ever on the same page. Every time we managed to confirm something, someone else told us it wasn't true. It resulted in a lot of added stress for my wife and I that could have been easily avoided if the 2 clowns running the barn had any common sense or decency. 9) They surprised us with a $150 mandatory insurance policy immediately after we delivered 100% cash payment and signed the contract. David E actually demanded to be paid in cash from his brother while we were sitting right in front of him. It was extremely awkward for everyone. They seem to be money-hungry at every juncture, but provide no actual services. 10) They run a limousine service next door which seems to always be the priority. The barn, myself, and my wife, were always the afterthought, falling through every crack in the place. Considering the amount of money we paid for what we later discovered to be ONLY the physical space, I IMPLORE you to stay as far away from this place as you possibly can. Go have your wedding in a different barn because these people made every day leading up to our wedding an absolute nightmare. Everything went perfectly the day of the wedding, but it's hard to forget all the chaos and disorder that preceded our special day. I hope this review saves other couples from the stress and anxiety the barn owners caused my wife and I.

He arrived and took over the kitchen effortlessly, making the house smell amazing!! The ladies of the party all wanted steak entrees. I opted for eggplant parm as I don't eat much red meat. We were served Caesar salad and a cucumber tomato salad family style as starters. Fresh bread accompanied our meals and a delicious mixed berry dessert followed. Mark even cleaned up the whole kitchen, leaving it better than it was when he arrived! The prices were appropriate. He does add a travel fee which is completely understandable (we were 40min away). I wouldn't hesitate to hire Mark again for a special event!! Thanks for making the brides night spectacular :)
