How do I even begin to write a review for Paula Marrero and her wonderful staff, of Marrero Wedding…read moreand Events? In a word, Paula was a lifesaver. She not only managed virtually every logistical aspect of the event, but she helped hugely in navigating the emotional and psychological rollercoaster surrounding the planning of a wedding, and exponentially reduced the overall stress level. Paula is also one of the hardest working, and most professional people I've ever done business with. She was chief advocate, coordinator, negotiator, friend, and shrink all rolled into one! One doesn't fully grasp the magnitude of the multi-faceted coordination and attention to detail involved in planning a successful wedding, until you're in it. We were so grateful to have had Paula's years of knowledge and expertise guiding us, especially since there are no do-overs with a wedding! Plus, she knows just about everything there is to know about finding the best vendors that match one's style and budget. Every one she had us work with was perfectly suited. She completely understood my daughter and her husband's vision, was super responsive and very flexible. She allowed those of us involved with the planning to breath much easier. The proof is in the pudding, and all our guests said it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to, even weeks after the event. Best of all, the bride and groom had a blast, and wedding memories that will last them a lifetime! Lastly, I will say that Paula is one of the NICEST and real people I have ever worked with. She's a straight shooter and her sense of humor and personal support in every way made her so fun to work with and both my daughter and I now consider her a friend. As my husband said repeatedly during the wedding planning, "Hiring Paula was the best money we spent on this wedding." Truer words could not be spoken! If you are hiring a wedding planner, this lady is simply the best there is, hire her immediately, you'll be very happy and grateful that you did!

I worked with A.G Productions in July 2009 at the C.U.R.V.E. Fashion Show. Her team made sure I was set up and comfortable with my placement the moment I arrived. To date, I am in contact with Alicia. She is a great resource to our community and an excellent source for networking. I look forward to future endeavors with A.G. Productions.

When I arrived at the Hibernian Hall I was promptly introduced to Alicia and she explained what she was hoping to obtain for photographs. While the guests were arriving I had a chance to observe and photograph the setup. In the right hand corner was a bar serving drinks and to the left of the bar a fruit, cracker, and cheese table. Along the far right side were vendors selling jewelry and other fashion accessories. Once the lights went down and the MC appeared on stage you could feel the excitement starting to build and that excitement didn't stop until they tuned the lights back on. I was impressed with the way the fashion show flowed. It appeared seamless from one set of models walking the runway to the entertainment between sets to the next set of models. It appeared that all of the models, all of the guests, everybody was relaxed and enjoying the event. I know I did! I thought AG Productions did a great job. Brian Brawn B.F.

Our wedding event was so much fun. Everyone had a great time, a big part of that was DJ Nate and…read morethe team behind him, Siagel Productions. We were impressed by his MCing skills as he was able to keep the crowd entertained through the night. He also played a good mix of music through the night honoring the diverse tastes of the crowd. We had shared a bunch of custom playlists with Siagel for reference, and we felt that DJ Nate came prepared as he was able to build a great evening using those references. The dance floor was buzzing all the way through, all thanks to him. Big thanks to our Event Coordinator, Paige, as well for creating the perfect sequence of play for the night, it flowed really well as we successfully kept the interest of all folks in the crowd. She was very responsive and adaptive during our communication leading up to the event. We are the happiest of customers and absolutely wouldn't have any qualms about recommending Siagel to everyone we know. -Amilie and Saurav

After helping us postpone our 2020 wedding, Siagel helped make our October 2021 wedding the actual…read morebest night of our lives. Jodi our event coordinator was by my side for 2+ years to ensure every unique detail and bizarro request was handled, and helped me keep our vendors in check. Siagel handled all the lighting, invitations, dance floor, audio (both ceremony and party), and day of coordination (along with the after party). And as someone who had a very specific vision for my wedding, having Jodi walk me into the reception room during cocktail hour to see how it all came together in the exact way I dreamed was one of the most memorable moments of my life. The after party for my wedding was also a 1000/10. The music was ON POINT thanks to Michael and they even worked with our band to transition from the live music to the DJ. People didn't stop dancing for hours. They even brought CO2 guns which brought the party to the next level. I of course never want to get married again but I would repeat this party every weekend for the rest of my life if I was able to.

I emailed back and forth with the musical director a few times (Rebecca) and we settled on a string trio to perform for our ceremony and cocktail hour. I really had no idea what songs I wanted to have played, and Rebecca gave some great ideas and guidance along with samples to listen to (also on website). Rebecca made the whole process of song selection very easy. The day of the wedding the musicians were at the site early, and they looked professional and kept a low profile. Most importantly- the music was beautiful. We honestly couldn't have asked for more from the performers, and the price was reasonable for the service provided. Highly recommended!
