The staff is amazing and actually did a great job of helping me feel calm right before my ceremony. I wish I could give them a 25.star rating. It was just absolutely amazing. We have a go-to photographer of our own, but really wanted a secular ceremony without all of the fuss. I didn't have to worry about a thing. Tell your guests where to go, when to show up, and they do the rest! You just get to show up and look pretty. Everyone was great about contacting us and they were able to play my music of choice at a reasonable volume. The ceremony was beautiful, the officiant was great, and the event host made everything run beautifully. My husband and I are so happy we found The Vow Exchange. It made the day virtually stress free!

Their cake is SO GOOD, seriously THE BEST. I've never had an order go wrong and they are simply kind to work with. Highly recommend this little shop in Parkville.

Warning: LONG review. I truly cannot say enough good things!…read more Michael did a wonderful job coordinating, planning and DJing my April 2014 wedding reception. Yes, he played music, but even more, he performed the role as our reception coordinator. Like many brides, I originally thought that I needed to hire someone who could just play music. After seeing many positive reviews of Michael's services online, my fiance' Justin and I met with him in person. During our meeting, we realized that Michael was the real deal and that we needed to work with him. Michael explained how he would do much more than just play music -- he would help with planning the reception events with us, he would routinely meet with us throughout the whole planning process, he'd make sure the flow of the entire event made sense, etc. And he did exactly that! We Skyped with Michael on one occasion and also met in person on a few occasions. We also met at our reception site with Michael so he could plan out the event details, the location of the grand entrance, etc. Throughout our planning, Michael also was very prompt to respond via email whenever I reached out with questions, ideas and concerns. Michael told us time and time again that our job as the couple was to just enjoy our reception; his job was to make sure that it ran smoothly. And Michael kept that promise. Justin and I danced, mingled, enjoyed our food, and had a wonderful time at our reception. We never had any question about what's next, where do we go, aren't we supposed to cut the cake at some point? When we needed to perform a specific task at our reception, Michael found us and briefly gave us a reminder. On the music side of things, our dance floor was crowded the entire night. Of course as the bride and groom, we were busy talking with so many people, so we were not on the dance floor too much. Following up with one of the bridesmaids next day, she said, "I was on the dance floor the whole night!" Michael's planning and organization services combined with his DJ expertise was worth every penny. I would absolutely recommend him to any bride and groom looking for a DJ -- and then some. We will forever be grateful for the contribution he made and the hard work he put in on our very special day.

If you are planning a wedding, read this FIRST!…read more I am a high functioning OCD type of person, and when we decided to get married with only 2 and a 1/2 months notice I went into overdrive planning. We identified a location and starting tasking friends and contacting vendors within a week, but I quickly started to get overwhelmed with the amount of effort. I was trying to juggling working full time, traveling for work and planning a wedding with next to no notice when my best friend begged me to find a day-of wedding coordinator. I turned to trusty Yelp to help me out and was sad to see the lack of reviews for wedding vendors. However, I did find one review for Buffee Ann and saw I could contact her for a quote. She quickly replied and when I decided not to move forward was sweet in her response to my poor life choices. Only a few days later I changed my mind and she encouraged me to skype with her before making another bad decision. I am so glad I did! From the start Buffee was energetic and encouraging while also allowing my strong personality to dictate as much as I could of the planning process. I have to say at the end of the day, hiring Buffee to help me out was the BEST IDEA EVER! If you're planning a wedding, get help from the very start. Buffee offered suggestions for vendors after we ran into challenges with a few of ours, and we realized she would have been a savior if we had used her from day 1. She worked with our bartending service to help resolve a difficult issue and found me someone to help with my hair (which received numerous compliments). Buffee even offered to add some much needed make-up to my very ungirly self. To say she was a fairy godmother would be an understatement. If you're looking for help with planning anything, go no further. Buffee Ann will take care of you, be your cheerleader, and provide excellent suggestions for local vendors.

But finding Buffee and Magical Moments was a huge stroke of luck. She helped us figure out exactly what we want. It was the perfect mix of making sure we got the wedding that we specifically wanted but she also knew when we were unsure about something and she always pushed us in the right direction. We both really cannot say enough good things about Buffee. She made our wedding, something both of us always dreamed of but figured we could never have, the most amazing day of our lives. We're an LGBT couple and especially living in the midwest you never really know how people are going to be or if they'll even want to help you, but Buffee and Magical Moments made our wedding seem so important to them and made sure we found the vendors who would best serve our needs. If anyone ever asks me for advice on wedding planning I'm sending them to Magical Moments immediately.

Hello! I would like to be transparent and say that I did not end up using Brandi all the way to…read morecompletion, but I will say that from our first call we connected and I can tell that she is a really good hearted person that means what she says. I am in California, so not super close to her (haha) but she assured me that it wouldn't be an issue. I needed some help for my husband's 50th birthday party. I have 3 year old twins so I wasn't sure how much I was going to be able to do on my own. She immediately sent me ideas for a theme on his birthday and discussed finding venues. I also started going to work looking at venues because I was nervous she wouldn't really know the area out here. I ended up finding a few and she called on them immediately. She booked me a tour of two of the venues I wanted. I ended up picking one quickly and she immediately put down the deposit for it. At the same time as she and her team were working on my event, i was working on it too coincidentally. I guess I had more time than I thought I did! I ended up really enjoying the process of researching vendors, reaching out to them and then when it came to booking them, I would kick them back over to Brandi. That's when things got a little slow and I jumped on them. She did let me know that she's not slow, I'm just really fast lol... I guess what I was really in the search for was a day of coordinator because I LOVE doing the planning (I hadn't realized that before though). I asked to cancel the contract for the reason that I was really just doing it all myself. No testament against her! She did have files and files of things she was working on for me. I just am a rush rush get things done now kind of person. She has a good heart and will make events beautiful I'm sure! Very willing to work with the client as you can see from below!

We put a deposit of $750 in June of 2024 for a wedding that we are having in October of 2025 just so we could hold the date with out committing with any sort of contract. We did not sign any sort of contract though out this whole process. After a week later, my fiancé and I decided to have a family member handle the coordination because they offered. We then reached out to the company for a refund since it was over a year in advance and we didn't sign any sort of contract. We were initially denied a refund completely, but after a dozen of ghosted emails, we were finally told by Brandi that she would only refund $500 of the initial $750, even though she did not lift a finger. As of January 2025, we still haven't even received the $500 that was promised. Completely shady and unprofessional business practices. I will make sure to let all of my relatives, friends, etc know that they should avoid this company to keep their money safe.
