I placed an online order for a "get well" arrangement from out of state to be delivered to the…read morelocal hospital. While I know the photos online are just an example of what they can do and that they need to work with what is available seasonally, I do expect the result to be close. I was very unhappy when I received a photo of the results from the recipient. I looked nothing like the online image. I chose the arrangements because it looked bright, cheerful and full of flowers that are easy to get. What was delivered was a dull, baby's breath and greenery filled arrangement of lack luster flowers. I haven't received a confirmation of delivery so I called to make sure. The person who answered seem to know of the order but kept saying "delivery for tomorrow" and I had to correct them it was for today. They then said of yes we got it and will deliver. She couldn't tell if it had been delivered but luckily another person in the room was able to tell he it had been fulfilled. I once used a florist in another city that not only sent a confirmation of delivery but in the confirmation message sent an photo of the actual arrangement that was delivered. When sending something to another person long distance it is hard to rely on someone else to get it just right and unfortunately for this time they failed.

We cannot thank Megan enough for capturing our special day so perfectly. The day goes by so…read morequickly, and she has provided us a lifetime of memories through her work so that we won't forget a single detail. She scoped out multiple locations in Petoskey, at different points in the day to determine where and when each picture would turn out the best. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was so flexible and patient with our huge wedding party and families! Her professionalism, attention to detail, and eye for the perfect shot make her the perfect wedding photographer. We could not be happier and would absolutely use her again! Thanks again! -Colleen & Blake

Any help would be appreciated .

When my niece said she wanted barbecue for her wedding ("I want people to get messy!") I was…read moredoubtful. When my sister (her mom) hired Chef George and His Team at Abundance Catering, she said they were "The Best Caterers in Leelanau County." I was still doubtful. But that's because I'm a doubtful kind of guy. My doubts were erased on the day of the wedding. Abundance was amazing: professional, calm, clean, clear. The food was absolutely incredible. When we asked for applause for the chef, the audience shouted "YUM!" (That seriously happened.) The Pineapple Bacon Appetizer is so good I want to have sex with it - or in it - or both. The food was pure and specific - so healthy. The vegetarian option was REALLY good and I am not a big fan of veggie options, being a meat kind of guy. And yeah - the barbecue was incredible. If you go on The Knot, you will find lots of grand reviews. I will review there, too. Most say the following: "Best wedding food I've ever had." This sounds like hyperbole - it's not. It's seriously the best wedding food I've ever had. These are really good people - professionals that take pride in what they do. I would hire them in an instant - and plan to for my upcoming 60th birthday celebration. Huge kudos. Hire them immediately.

What a great guy to be around!…read more Paul is calm, funny, easy to talk to, and...(obviously by these reviews), a great photographer. We called only a day in advance, yet he squeezed us in after a day of THREE different photo shoots. Long day for him! Even after having so many photography jobs (and us telling him not to rush), he had our photos to us in just two days. The photos are BEAUTIFUL and most importantly, real-looking. Instead of doing a lot of editing, he used the natural light during the photo shoot to our advantage and I was wowed when I ended up liking every photo he'd taken. Would definitely recommend!

He did the basic DJ-ing well but…read morewhat struct us most about Patrick was his attention to detail both before and during the wedding. He arranged two Skype calls to really understand our personalities and what we wanted from him and was in constant contact throughout the lead up to our big day. During the wedding he was excellent with the guests but also went above and beyond with my wife and I. He pretty much waited on us hand and foot, getting us food and drinks when we were getting our pictures done and constantly checking in to see if there was anything we needed. We would highly recommend A+ Event Entertainment to anyone as we were incredibly impressed with Patrick and the service we received. Thanks again Patrick for contributing to such a great day!
