Anita is a one of a kind person and mehendi artist. I first contacted Anita to ask about wedding…read morehenna, almost a year out from the actual event. She offered to meet up at a coffee shop for a trial run, then proceeded to hand draw templates incorporating exactly what I wanted my wedding mehendi to look like. She incorporated portraits of me, my husband, our cat, and favorite animals like elephants and peacocks. Not only is she exceptionally detailed, she is so kind and generous with her time. Anita spent 2 hours during my mehendi trial, 6 hours during doing my mehendi at my house, then another 6 hours doing it for others. She did all this with such a joyful attitude and desire to share her gifts with others. Anita really takes pride in her work, which is evident from the way she makes her own henna cones from natural ingredients and offers multiple versions to avoid allergies. Anita is exceptionally talented. On top of that, she'll bring energy, positivity, and innovation to any event you're hosting. She was wonderful to get to know and work with. Hope to see you again soon, Anita!

I'm composing this review after several years of marriage because I wanted to ensure that my…read moreassessment is not influenced by the intense emotions associated with wedding planning. I engaged Lilli's services because she claimed to have experience with my chosen venue in Aspen. However, when I inquired about my entrance, she couldn't provide a clear answer. On the actual wedding day, she seemed unsure of how I should make my entrance down the aisle. She later mentioned that she had given me options for the entrance just moments before I was due to walk down. Why should such a critical decision be left until the most nerve-wracking moment? Lastly, we had a flower girl and her mother who arrived late to the rehearsal, meaning we couldn't practice their roles. Lilli failed to communicate the necessary instructions to them after they entered, leading to the flower girl becoming upset and wandering aimlessly during the ceremony. When we confronted these issues to her next day, she said "if this is going to ruin your wedding, your marriage is not going to last" If you want to hear this after your wedding day, please hire her

Lilli Black is amazing…read more Me and my fiance have been planning our wedding recently, and we have been stressed to no end as our initial location fell through. We reached out to Lilli Black on a whim, not expecting a reply, as we are working with a very small budget. How wrong we were! Lilli didn't just reply, she replied at 9:00pm at night 10 minutes after my initial query. She even conversed with me for over an hour, providing me insights, general advice and really calming my nerves! The next day we were in her office! She gave us the full run down on a typical budget, potential place we can host it at, and completely different styles of wedding. We haven't even engaged her yet, and she was professional to the T, providing us insight in the spirit of good will. She has hosted 1000+ weddings and the experience showed in her candor, knowledge base and demeanor. At the end of the day, we didn't manage to book Lilli only because our first choice became available. We had imagined a beautiful outdoor wedding with a rustic reception that Lilli mentioned was definitely doable, even with our tiny budget. But if you want someone you can depend on, and someone that will be there for you when the wedding nerves start bulding, there's no one better than Lilli Black.

My family and I had a pleasure to work with Tamara just recently and I have to say that both her…read morepersonality and her work were exactly what I expected from a photographer. She is very professional and really knows how to show a story with her photographs. For a few hours she is part of your life and shows it from inside out in the most beautiful light possible- literally! Our photo shoot took place on a beach and even though, I'm not usually a very "beachy" person, I would not have done it any other way. Tamara was so patient and made us feel so comfortable and natural and the pictures turned out amazing! Not one of them looks staged- its like she knew exactly when to click to capture the most beautiful shots of our family. I have worked with a few photographers in the past and I am certain that Tamara will be part of our life from now on. Everyone can take pictures but not everyone can be a photographer and Tamara is most definitely the one. Thank you Tamara for capturing my family in such a special way!

Tamara captured our fall engagement session, as well as our entire summer wedding weekend (welcome party, full wedding day, & farewell brunch) - both in beautiful Vail, Colorado. Not only did Tamara and her assistant show up on time to all events, they dressed appropriately, were well prepared for any weather changes, and most importantly, exhibited great teamwork with other vendors (i.e. videographers). I could not recommend Tamara more, I am confident in her skills and know you will be just as pleased as my husband and I!

Artsy Face is fantastic! We have had them at 4+ block parties and will definitely have them here…read moregoing forward. The artists are kind caring and take their time to understand what the kiddos would like. The face painting is beautiful and professional quality. All the kids in the neighborhood came back in line for a 2nd And 3rd time to get a few more paintings on their arms after their face was filled. We recommend Artsy Face to everyone. One more thing, the artists are low maintenance. All they need is a water source, shade, a table and 2 chairs. We set them up on the porch by the garden hose and that was perfect. 100% recommend. We have also contacted them through our elementary school to do very large events with face painter, balloon artists, caricature drawing and glitter tattoos. All the professionals are super sweet and kind to the kiddos, even those that need a few minutes to decide. Thank you Artsy Face for making all our events over the top and amazing.

Kate also did my flowers. My flowers turned out great. However my schedule for the day of the wedding was very off we had about 3 hours before the ceremony were all my bridesmaids and groomsman were just sitting out in the open for everyone to see including my self. We could have started to get ready much later to avoid this. Also Kate did not help with gathering any of our things after the ceremony or even ensuring everyone was in the correct spots for the ceremony. In good of that the set up of the reception that we had planned was not followed through on the day. I did not feel supported by Kate on the day of the wedding. When we needed her my bridesmaids had to search for her to help us. I felt like the only reason why my wedding happed was because of my family and friends. Also Kate was supposed to take over communications with my vendors the last month before the wedding and that never happened. I confirmed with all my vendors and paid them. I would not recommend bello and blue to anyone as a wedding planner, as it was very expensive and they did not follow through on their actual agreement.

Imagine your perfect wedding. Now multiply that by 10 -- that is what you get with Bello & Blue!…read moreWe had the most perfect and romantic winter wedding ever, thanks to B&B. Way above and beyond our expectations! After interviewing a handful of wedding planners and extensively reviewing profiles of candidates, we decided to hire Lindsey for our complete wedding planning needs. She vastly stood out due to her ability to bring beauty, uniqueness, and charm to fruition in her event design aesthetics. Lindsey is extremely organized and knows event planning better than I imagine anyone else could. We would have been overly stressed and completely at a loss if we did not use her full-service package. She has exceptional taste and a classic & fresh perspective that allowed us to see more BEAUTY and LOVE in one day than we could have ever imagined ourselves! Lindsey and Kate designed stunning floral arrangements and decor set in a private residence that Lindsey found for us in Winter Park, CO during the winter. From the bride and groom's perspective, the planning process while working with Bello & Blue was essentially stress-free and very enjoyable. We were updated regularly and met with Lindsey frequently to make sure things were going smoothly. She has a list of preferred vendors she trusts and she will even negotiate prices on your behalf when working with them. She presents vendor options based on how your style matches with theirs and she will facilitate the meetings with key vendors so that she stays in the loop. We have so many great things to say about Lindsey, but we cannot put them into a mere review. All we can say is that she is the sweetest, most caring and professional person we could've ever trusted to plan the biggest party of our lives! If you are anxious about planning your dream day, look no further and trust her to bring your DREAM to LIFE more beautifully and seamlessly than you could ever imagine!

From start to finish her communication was prompt, she was very professional and when my wedding day came I could not have asked for more. The wedding day can be a stressful time and she did not add to that stress. She was able to manage my huge family and my rowdy friends and captured beautiful photos all at the same time. Not only where the photos beautiful but they were artistic. Shanna was able to capture the smallest details to the largest moments. When I go through my photos I feel like I am reliving the day and all of the emotions that came with it. She knew exactly what style I was looking for and went above and beyond what I could have imagined. Her editing skills are very impressive! My husband and I really enjoyed working with her and would recommend her to any one. Go with Shanna if you want quality photos and a stress free event/shoot. I added some photos that show her artistry, her vision, her attention to detail and her ability to capture the moment.

She captured our love and relationship better than we could have ever imagined. She also captured so many moments between our guests that made our hearts melt (our grandfathers meeting and shaking hands for the first time, cousins playing, couples dancing, etc). Before the big day, Shanna went to various locations to help us find the perfect first look location and talked with us multiple times to make sure we were all on the same page. On the day of the wedding, she was so organized and made sure everyone was where they needed to be for family pictures. There were also very few moments that she needed to take us away from our guests for pictures which allowed for maximum time for fun!
