I love Kismet & Clover. They are so talented, in a non-pretentious, genuine way. One might be…read morewondering what the heck they do. Basically, they offer a few different services, including rentals (we're talking antique furniture, mismatched vases, suitcases and other gloriously vintage goodies for event decor), as well as full event design. I went with the latter for my recent wedding, and hired Jessica to take the reigns when it came to decor for my event. Working with her was the perfect amount of collaboration for me. She listened to all my Pinterest-y ideas, took note of my dream theme, and ran with it. Every once in awhile we'd be in touch; she'd ask me my thoughts on burlap and other things, and pin decor ideas to my Pinterest board. I helped with some of the crafting (but honestly not that much) and worked on my own little projects for the day. I can't imagine what my day would have been like without her and her husband! A hell of a lot more stressful, I'll tell you that much. I also really appreciated their emphasis and support for other local artists. I could have ordered a zillion things on Etsy, from artists based in the U.S. and further (which I have no issue at all with, yay for Etsy!), but Jessica opened my eyes to a myriad of local Calgary artists who are doing amazing things in our city. I was thrilled to spend much of my wedding money supporting local artists. Let me just conclude with this. I was so, so touched by the little, thoughtful details she came up with. The decor was a perfect, symbolic marriage of both my new husband and I. If you want a wedding with charming, thoughtful decor and don't have the first clue where to start - check out Kismet & Clover!!!!! I recommend wholeheartedly.

From The Newly Wed Husband Who Doesn't Care About Decorations:…read more I never would have guessed I would be writing a review on a wedding decorator, but I owe it to Jessica & crew. I wasn't involved in planning the theme, colors and decorations (cause I'm a guy and my input is invalid), and that was okay with me. My wife claims Jessica was a breath of fresh air to work with and my only concern was the price (which was extremely reasonable and WELL WORTH IT). What I experienced from Jessica's end was on the day of the wedding. Unfortunately there were some flaws in the logisitics at the venue, the space was cramped, and the venue manager was bat sh*t crazy to put it nicely. Jessica took all the stress away from my wife (and as we know, a happy wife = a happy life), and made the event flawless, memorable, and an absolute delight. I can't say enough good things about Jessica and her help. The decorations as I'm told were beautiful and full of character. What I noticed the most was how much she cared, and how much she wanted to make our day better. Thank you Jessica! - The careless husband

We had a verbal and written contract with Louise for day of co-ordination for our wedding. She…read moredidn't fulfill what she verbally promised and what her website states - a stress free wedding day. While other vendors were telling her not to call me with little details, Louise still called. She mixed up all aspects of the wedding songs (processional and bride and groom introduction into the reception) and then blamed the DJ then tried to blame us saying we never sent her the list (when the DJ had the list she forwarded to him). She almost sent the children of the wedding party down in the wrong order, the venue she set up was a mess (she blamed the hotel for not being at her beck and call - when she had hotel, DJ and my friends helping her - obviously can't get it done herself). She said she doesn't have the proper insurance to use her personal vehicle to run "work errands." Was having a drink at the wedding (not sure if this is general practice - especially when she claims she had no time to sit down). Decor wasn't set up how it was discussed and I even sent her pictures (also she suggested me buy items she didn't use because she "didn't know what they were for") the guest book pens in a vase next to the guest book - "I didn't know what those where for, so I didn't put them out" so our guest signed our black guest book pages with a black pen she put out. Top is ALL off we had paid her to stay an extra 2 hours to clean up our wedding decor - she left. Her excuse is that she checked with the hotel (a server or bartender) to see if they were okay with taking it all down. When in fact she had talked to the event service manager about this specifically and was told that the hotel IS NOT responsible for taking those items down, also in the contract with the hotel which Louise had a copy of. So at the end of the night we were ripped of $$$ and had to take down our wedding decor. 3 of the 4 vendors had negative things to say about her. She didn't inform our photographers of changes to the sched and they almost missed the garter/bouguet toss and the Chinese dragons that came through. 2 very big events during our wedding. Denies that any of this is her fault - CANNOT BE TAKEN FOR HER WORD or CANT FULFILL HER CONTRACT. Her website promotes her wedding, with testimonials from her husband. Don't be fooled.

Strongly recommend AGAINST doing business with this company…read more Beaufair Weddings & Entertainment was hired to provide the DJ and MC services at our wedding. Eric Fairlie sold himself quite well producing awards and videos, as well as letters of reference. All of which we would now question the authenticity of. The manner in which Eric conducted himself that evening was unprofessional, disrespectful and not at all in line with the quality of service he led us to expect. It seems that Eric is a very talented sales person but the actual ethics and integrity in which he and Beaufair holds their business are certainly questionable. There were several concerns brought forward to Eric and Beaufair Weddings & Entertainment, of which not a single one was acknowledged. Instead they simply stated that they had done an internal review and came to the decision to decline our request for a 50% refund of monies paid. These concerns included things such as making announcements to our guests such as a country music and cell phone ban that he was specifically asked not to say, not adhering to timelines set, and refusal to play songs requested on the night of the wedding despite the fact that they had been agreed to previously. Not only were we as the Bride and Groom unsatisfied with the performance but our guests were left feeling insulted and discriminated against. Multiple commitments failed to be kept and the communication from Beaufair was severely lacking. In their own contract under the guarantee and refunds it states that the policy covers "a significant lapse in service quality". That is exactly what we clearly outlined to Beaufair and which they refused to acknowledge or do anything about. Additionally in the contract it states that "Beaufair will always attempt to resolve an issue initially through other means" there was no attempt for resolution attempted by the individuals or company.

Loved working with Eric and his public speaking and organization of the day was fantastic - Thanks so much :)
