Book Barbara and Gerad now! I work in the wedding industry and I know the value of a planner but you really don't know what they do until you experience it first hand. Barbara comes with years of experience and knows this industry like the back of her hand. She guides you on vendors and will give you a realistic view of expectations. She was an advocate for me during our floral meeting. She got to know me ahead of time and what me and my fiancé like and don't like and our budget. During the floral meeting, she knew exactly what to ask for and how to articulate what we liked and didn't like. She saved us money just in that meeting alone! They made everything happen on wedding day and I had no clue when things were getting fixed (I messed up the seating chart and they used their resources and figured it out without bugging me during my hair and makeup). My family felt so much love from them and knew they could ask her questions or count on her to make things happen. Her company offers everything from limited service to full service and packages in between. I know there are so many wedding planners out there so you need to find the right one for you based on personality and experience. For me personally, I loved Barbara's years of experience and her ability to say no if it would not work and protect me. She was a mother figure for me and someone to really count on. I had a small wedding with no wedding party and my mom passed away, so her expertise and guidance and protection was perfect! Gerad on her team is amazing and a rockstar and so wonderful to work with. You would be lucky to have either of them as your planner for your wedding.

See all

Austin English Tea Company

You know sometimes it's really nice to get out of the city for an experience and this was one of…read morethose times. The Austin English Tea Company brings all of the aesthetics, ambiance, and flavors you'd expect in a proper British tea room. Spent a lovely Sunday Funday morning with friends celebrating Galentine's Day (albeit a day later) with fresh and yummy tea sandwiches, scones, clotted cream, mini, quiche, cream puffs, macarons, Prosecco, and more. We had four pots of tea: Classic English Breakfast, Earl Gray, Peach White, and Coconut Oolong. It goes without saying that the English Brekkie and Earl Gray were perfectly brewed and delicious. The Peach White and Coconut Oolong were also perfectly brewed. The Peach White was fragrant and flavorful. Same for the Coconut Oolong though it was more fragrant with a less robust flavor. Still delicious. The tea sandwiches were served on perfectly fresh and soft white bread. Cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches are always my favorite, without question. The Strawberry Devonshire Scone was to die for! I really enjoyed the heart-shaped Rosemary biscuit that had a hint of parmesean flavor as well. The apricot Stilton cheese was flavorful and exactly how you want a Stilton to taste. Service was outstanding. The decor was brilliant, absolute perfection. The entire experience was reminiscent of tea rooms I've visited in England and Ireland. Looking forward to another visit soon! Note: the tea room is located inside Michelle's Patisserie in a shopping plaza---once you enter the tea room you're totally transported to another time and place of elegance, tea, & sweets.

The scones were divine. We all loved the peach tea, and the jasmine tea, along with the Earl Gray. We had the best time. We all agreed that next time we would bring our mother's and daughters with us. This place is a gem !! We had the most amazing bridal shower at Austin English Tea Company.

My "On Wednesdays, We Kayak" trips never disappoint, and this weeks route might've been my…read morefavorite. We launched from Emma Long Metropolitan Park and paddled about 7 miles along the Colorado River, passing stunning waterfront mansions and even a hidden, slightly eerie, dilapidated mock Renaissance village near the Pennybacker (360) Bridge. It was the epitome of Keeping Austin Weird! The adventure had a wild moment when we paddled down Bull Creek and encountered a very territorial swan guarding its nest. It charged several of us, we paddled faster than we planned. It was thrilling and hilarious. We paddled up to the The County Line on the Lake, where 16 of us exited our kayaks, ready to eat. They knew we were coming so our table set up ahead of time, which made a huge difference for a group our size. Service was quick, organized, and friendly. I ordered the ribs with a baked potato, coleslaw, and their fresh made bread, everything was spot on. The portions are generous, even ordering from the lunch menu, and I ended up taking leftovers home. This paddle has become a yearly tradition for us, rain or shine, and ending it here is part of what makes it so memorable. If you're kayaking in the area, stopping at The County Line on the Lake is an easy yes for good food, cold drinks, and a great place to relax. They even have outside seating so you can enjoy the river on milder days. They also have ample parking for cars.

The weather was nice, so we decided to sit outside in the patio, and you can see the water from where you sit. Good thing too because the inside smelled a bit weird. Service was okay. It seemed like only one waiter was working the area, so she was kind of busy. Sadly, there was hair twice in the mac and cheese, but the waitress handled it just fine, and lucky on the third attempt, there was no hair. The sausage had a nice little kick to it, which was nice. The mac and cheese was creamy, and the warm homemade bread with the honey butter was great; a touch of sweet definitely helps it. Not a bad place for lunch as they do give a decent amount of food. The homemade bread was an additional cost, and the sub for mac and cheese as well.
