This review is a little late but I ordered balloons from KD Sales in October for my grandsons…read morebirthday, since I live in Chicago I needed to do everything over the phone. They were not friendly, I spoke to two different people, once when placing my order and then again when confirming my order the day before the party. When placing the order the gentleman who I spoke to sounded annoyed, as if I was bothering him. I was asking for specific colors but seeing that they are a balloon supplier I didn't feel these were outrageous requests. . The color theme was blue, dark blue, light blue, white and sea foam. Basic simple colors 2 dozen 6 of each. When I arrived to my daughters the balloons were delivered and instead of dark blue they brought black. Seeing that I confirmed this order the day before I was annoyed that they got it wrong. In addition the women I spoke to when confirming was sharp and snippy I was barely able to get a thank you out before she hung up the phone. Now, keeping perspective, this was a child's birthday and nothing was ruined due to this error, I thought about calling but with my previous phone experiences I didn't feel they would be very responsive and why add to my irritation. I won't order from them again as there is a certain level of customer service you should be able to expect and unfortunately in my case KD sales made no attempt to convey even the basic customer service courtesies.

The tops of the shelves in the main showroom are topped with stacks of any kind of hat you can imagine. The back room has shelves and shelves of labeled cardboard boxes containing wigs, boas, gloves, costume jewelry and other props. There are many gag gifts here. You can find lots of little toys (bounce balls, plastic animals, cars, airplanes, etc.), perfect for filling gift bags for children's birthday parties. Stickers, makeup, party decorations...you name it, they probably have it. Be warned that the store is a little dingy and is not in the best neighborhood. That said, I have always found the staff very friendly and helpful. Appearances can be deceiving.

My husband had their Michigan Honey Amber. We had their signature appetizers, Bavarian pretzels and Beer cheese. The pretzels were bite-sized and paired with a significantly larger portion of beer cheese. The beer cheese is house-made dip and is creamy and infused with one of their craft brews. My husband had the blackened shrimp tacos. The tacos are packed with well-seasoned blackened shrimp and a refreshing slaw. The tacos were served on a blend of corn and flour tortillas, which were sturdy enough to hold up perfectly against the generous, packed fillings. Latitude 42 also operates its own micro-distillery, producing a signature Bourbon Whiskey, Gins and Rums, which are sold on site. The menu is extensive and offers a variety of handhelds, pizza and seafood options. There were many families while we were there. Overall, food and drinks were very good.

Located north of Battle Creek…read morein what feels like the middle of nowhere, you turn down a short drive that takes you back into a forest and suddenly a stately manor with beautiful grounds appears. I honestly felt like I walked through a wardrobe into a Narnia world. The small sign at the drive was a bit tough to see, so as your map tells you you're close, slow down and look for the Bed and Breakfast sign. The vibe here is full on beautiful Pinterest, French countryside garden chateau. Everywhere you look there is something beautiful to see, from the outdoor pavilion to the stately rooms inside. The ivy covered buildings and gardens bursting with blooms are great backdrops for any photos. The wedding I attended was on a super hot, sunny June day, but there were plenty of amenities provided to guests to alleviate the heat: shade parasols, handheld electric fans, folding fans, and plenty of cold water. This was such a thoughtful touch and really helped make guests comfortable. The mansion in the background was a stunning view for the short but sweet ceremony. Once the ceremony concluded, we were greeted by staff members with water and wine and were directed to a courtyard for hors d'oeuvres and an outdoor bar. There were areas of shade from trees and umbrellas, which was a nice reprieve from the sun. The food was all perfectly arranged and the bacon wrapped date I had was a delicious sweet and savory bite! Molly and Jenn were pouring drinks with big smiles despite the heat. We were ushered into the main reception area -- a beautiful, airy, open pavilion -- by a tinkling dinner bell! Dinner was delicious and all staff members I interacted with were incredibly polite and professional. I was really blown away by the details and care put into this celebration at this amazing venue! Hopefully I can attend another wedding there someday. If you need a beautiful place to get married, look no further than Greencrest Manor.

Working with Suzi and her team at Viavi for our wedding flowers was an absolute dream. Since I live…read morein Ohio and Viavi is in Michigan, there was definitely a leap of faith involved. I wasn't able to see everything in person beforehand, so I had to trust the process--but Suzi made that easy from the very beginning. She was incredibly easy to work with, communicated clearly throughout the entire planning process, and truly listened to what I envisioned for our wedding day. I shared only a handful of inspiration photos from my Pinterest board, and somehow she completely understood the look and feel I was hoping for. The flowers, which were grown right on her farm, were the most beautiful, whimsical blooms I could have imagined. My bridal bouquet felt natural, romantic, and thoughtfully designed. When I saw everything on our wedding day, I was blown away. Suzi and her team not only brought my vision to life--they exceeded it in every way. Our flowers were better than we ever could have imagined, and they were one of the most memorable and beautiful parts of our wedding. I can't recommend Viavi enough!
