We hired High Energy Mobile DJ's for our backyard wedding and our DJ Wes was phenomenal! He arrived…read moreearly, set up the microphone and audio for our ceremony, then tore down and set up for the reception after. He was great at listening to what we wanted and made sure to ask clarifying questions during the night to make sure everything went smoothly. I've had so many people tell me that Wes was the best DJ they've ever had at a wedding. He got people involved, jumped on the dance floor to show everyone how to do the wobble, and brought hats and props for a dance game. I'd recommend Wes to anyone looking for a great DJ. Communication with High Energy DJ's was great throughout the entire wedding planning process. Scott took a phone call in the beginning of the process to field some quick questions from me and then called a week before to set up final details. My only complaint was the fact that the entire process was a little low-tech. The phone call the week before to iron out details seemed a little clunky and I would have preferred filling out a form online with all of the song names and details for each part of the ceremony and reception. Overall, I would highly recommend High Energy DJ's to anyone looking for a fun and affordable DJ option.

We had the pleasure of having his employee, Craig, service our wedding and he was fabulous! He was fabulous, fantastic, energetic, kind, and every other positive word you could come up with! Craig killed it on every level! He checked in with me through out the night and was so easy going! We are thrilled that Craig could join us for our special day! He played some great hits and took requests and even got out on the dance floor a few times (which our guests thought was awesome!)! We got several phone calls over the next few weeks complimenting our DJ service! You definitely won't be disappointed and I HIGHLY recommend!!

Are you excited to fret over what flowers are going to be in which vases at the reception? Would…read moreyou rather dedicate all your waking free time to chasing down rental and florist contacts, or would you rather sleep? Fretting and chasing are not things I enjoy. So I had an EXPERT do them for me. Except for Sarah Sarbacker, those things are not fretting and chasing - they are thoughtfully planning and cheerfully contacting. Thinking about the BIG DAY, I did NOT want to be the one in charge. I wanted to enjoy and relax with my family and friends. And I forsaw the difficulty with a family member being in charge of all the details. That person wouldn't get to enjoy the day! Unless they were a regular bossy-pants, in which case I would not enjoy taking direction from them in the first place. Let me also tell you this: 15 minutes before our outdoor ceremony, clouds were gathering and the wind started to blow. Sarah happily and confidently crawled into the back of our car (where my MOH and I were staying warm) and asked to start the event a few minutes early because the clouds were threatening-looking. Oh a more pleasant woman I couldn't have heard this from! She even took a few minutes to tell a funny personal story and get my mind off THE WALK DOWN THE AISLE. She was a sea of calm. She projected absolute certainty and helpfulness. She does not dominate - she takes direction from what you suggest. She is a wedding FACILITATOR. I believe she is truly gifted in dealing with all different sorts of people, and yet she has a perfectionistic tendency (to get the chairs just right, to get the table centerpieces just right, etc...). She is polite, cheerful, and nothing seems to throw her for a loop. It was a perfect day. And Sarah Sarbacker was a huge part of making it so.

Literally can't say enough amazing things about Andrea!! She is truly the absolute best! Our…read morewedding would never have happened without her. I decided I wanted to get married on our family farm, a daunting task that she truly brought to life. She thought of every little detail (needed a generator, bathroom trailer, lights, mosquito treatment, valet, etc) and was extremely organized and thorough. She laid out a very easy to follow timeline, checked in each month with the tasks to focus on every month, gave suggestions of professional experienced vendors, but was also willing to go way outside anything she had done before and find new options. For example we wanted really adventurous food with a mix of thai/peruvian/mediterranean/vietnamese/indian and somehow she found the perfect caterer who could make it happen. Andrea is simply the best and you will be lucky to have her, I thank my lucky stars she was available on the date we wanted. She is worth way more than she charges. I cannot recommend her more highly.

My husband and I hired Brides On A Budget because we had a small budget to work with for our…read morewedding and had no idea how to plan a wedding on our own. I'm happy to give a five star review because Brides On A Budget helped create the intimate wedding of our dreams. We were married at the Overture Center in September 2010, a beautiful space we didn't think we could afford or even arrange. Our wedding planner, Laura, acted as the liaison and handled all of the paperwork, contracts, seating and table arrangements, even down to the color themes and handling of the guests all while being completely professional and friendly and honest. Even though it was a small wedding, I could not have done this without the help of Brides On A Budget. The list of vendors they work with was fantastic and we were able to get real deals on our wedding cake, our flowers, even the person who did my make-up the day of. Working with Laura was like having a friend do the dirty work; she was a great listener and was able to understand our needs after just one meeting. She was diligent about responding to emails and phone calls and because of her hard work, we were able to just really be in the moment and enjoy the wedding and the reception without the hassle of worrying about organization or writing checks or overseeing guests or meals. She helped make our wedding special and memorable and I would wholeheartedly recommend these services to any bride or groom to be.

Laura is amazing! We hired Laura because we were overwhelmed with the process, on a budget and…read morereally needed help. She helped us find the perfect vendors and build the wedding of our dreams on our budget. I can honestly say without her, I would have been lost. With her, we threw the most amazing party and our friends are still raving about the time they had. We gave her a few objectives and she truly was able to build the perfect wedding for us. I owe her a lot and if you are a bride who needs just a little help or a lot, she'll be the perfect fit.

WAIT. Hold up. How had I NEVER reviewed this amazing place?! *headdesk*…read more Let's back up to 2015....when I used their services for our wedding set at a barn in Poynette. I rented two windows for our buffet menu and seating chart. I could've rented more things, but I really had to do my best to hold back because they have a TON in their inventory that I could've used. Alas, the budget did not allow such a splurge. Don't get me wrong - they're not absurdly expensive. Personally, I would've spent too much because I don't know when to stop sometimes.... I opted out of the custom writing as I wanted to do it myself with my BFF/MOH as a fun project. Even though we didn't request their custom writing services, they did provide suggestions on what to use, which was super helpful! Staff was just overall very friendly and pleasant to work with. Pick up was super easy - it took maybe 5-10 minutes from driving up to getting it loaded. Drop off was even easier. I'm not sure when we'd use them again, but I do recommend them to friends who are seeking a vintage look for their special events.

My wife and I held our outdoor / tent reception wedding in northern Wisconsin and were having a…read morevery hard time finding a tablescape we were satisfied with. Then we found A La Crate and their amazing wood tables and everything fell into place. Tablecloth linen rentals are astronomical in price. For almost the same cost we could rent amazing wood tables from A La Crate (we took 18 of them) and didn't have to worry about packing up a bunch of tablecloths after the reception to ship back to the rental company. A La Crate made the drop-off and pick-up insanely easy. I highly recommend you visit their shop because, while their web site features useful photography, there's nothing like seeing everything with your own eyes. They have so much great stuff. We found additional things we didn't know we needed (great assortment of dessert serving trays and tiers) and fancy bride and groom chairs that set our spot out a bit from our guests. And it was all reasonably priced of course. I can't recommend them highly enough. I'm so grateful we found them, I honestly don't know what we would have done had we not.

Any photographer can take beautiful staged photos, but it takes a true photographer to capture her subjects' raw emotions on film, and Jen does just that! I always look forward to her event albums and the silly candid photos. (: ...By the way, did I mention that Jen also takes the most wonderful close-ups of food?! Seriously, I could eat her photos up. :Q Beyond that, Jen is very gracious and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to work with her in an actual photo session. Thanks for sharing your work with us, Jen!
