From the second we first spoke to Kenia, we could sense her sweet demeanor and passion for wedding…read morecoordination. She was SO organized and helped us think of things we hadn't even considered (which in turn helped save the day!). Even though we had just hired and expected her to be our "day of coordinator," she did WAY more than that. She helped us plan everything out and cover all the small details. She kept checking in to keep us on schedule and even helped us shop for some last minute vendors. She made INCREDIBLE signs that exceeded all of our expectations. She just went above and beyond in every way possible and made our day the most beautiful experience imaginable. Words cannot express how grateful we are to Kenia for everything she did for us!!!!!!!

What should I do when a certain event planner silences me from speaking my Truths about the issue…read morewe have following my wedding? Her "team" lost numerous items of decor: projector, chargers, my wedding gifts and some cards which had checks for gifts and then didn't do her job of setting the room up with simple instructions. The room looked like a hot mess. Her staffer was rarely seen, barely completed the "decor set up" as guests eagerly arrived and then after damaging my property, losing my property, they have gone radio silent after this morning post was removed. Why was it removed? There are vendors out here that screw up and/or do crappy work and people like me should be able to voice the truth about my interaction and people like me who spent their hard earned money on pin the tail on the donkey decorator should hold them accountable in front of their peers and customers, past present or future. I have disputed my charge for this so called planner, special moments event planner is their name. I posted tons of pics so I won't waste my time just yet BUT anyone can message me and I will be happy to forward the mess they have caused and the fraud in their services. There is no accountability. There is no customer service. There has still not been any communication about the issues outstanding with me and my new husband to the owners of this shop. The only replies I have received, you might also have received, and that is because they pride themselves on their nonsense reviews for couples who pay over $10000 for their services. (Your getting screwed!) she was definitely not worth the $1100 I paid her either. If you hear the name Shauna I promise just say NO. She doesn't take any notes, she doesn't have any decor abilities and surely is playing above her pay grade. It seems I'm the one who has to call them out on their shotty staff, services and owner. One may have won awards among her peers, but based on my post silently disappears, it is apparent that these reviews are rigged and the wedding mafia has struck again. Special moments event planning your a joke for the little people like myself. I would never have paid the rates for your services. I had high hopes cuz I was in a pre-wedding haze. Now I'm in post wedding battle. And let me also say my family friends and my new family and friends were the sole reason I didn't go 305 on their asses, while I yanked their vendor plates from their lazy hands. I'm sure this won't last an hour on the group even 2am but I'm hoping if I do it enough times and have my friends family also cut and paste the same reviews that we can break this stupidity of not letting everyday people speak their peace. I'm not going away on Facebook so as a result I will continue to speak the truths about the incompetence, unprofessional handling of client issues (valid issues) and then stealing my funds and very possibly my property (cards and gifts included). Think it's impossible to believe I think it's possible. I think it's real. I think it's a travesty. I think they are an overrated, overpaid, dive bar flunkie planners who proclaim #1 status but it's all about who ya know: wedding sorority who rules these groups. So before I'm removed yet again and kicked out from helping one person say NO, screw these idiots and their antics. I'm letting my credit card handle what they can for payment withheld. It's only fair as they lost damaged. Then I go to small claims. Two can play ball , so consider this is my first homefun. Just having one person read is phenomenal. One can only hide their truths so long. Good luck on your wedding dates ladies. Cheers and just say NO special memories event planning !!!

If you are thinking of saving the expense of a wedding planner and trying to do it all yourself…read more.. DON'T!! First, Special Moments are most affordable you will find for what they offer. Second, it is well worth the expense to have expert wedding planners like Tammy and Petra take away all the stress on your wedding day so you can enjoy every minute of it... cause it goes by quick! I didn't even know the cops showed up in response to a noise complaint, or that my dad was late getting to the ceremony to walk me down the aisle! We never ran out of anything, and all the vendors did what they were hired to do, so we didn't need to manage a thing. We could just enjoy our special day with our family and friends. Finally, whatever it costs to hire them, you will get every penny back through their excellent recommendations and vast inventory. They saved us thousands of dollars by recommending an amazing caterer at a per person cost that other vendors couldn't believe he was charging. And their vast amount of decor inventory for every taste saved us hundreds of dollars on new decor - plus who wants the brain damage of having to sell it all on Craigslist after the wedding? Petra is one of the hardest workers I know, and I wouldn't trust anyone else with the most important day of my life. She was on top of everything at all times, and the day could not have gone any smoother. And she deserves an Emmy for the most memorable part of our day - when she helped play a prank on our best man by telling him I wasn't coming. Thank you Tammy and Petra for making sure our wedding was the fairytale wedding I had always dreamed of! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VQsz9cS-_zKAlBQcBzwEc70ErfD3dYvt/view?usp=sharing

My wedding was at the Pensacola park East location. I would have changed the time to maybe 3pm…read morebecause of how bad traffic was around 4:30pm that day. It was on a Saturday but even leaving at 4 pm to be there by 5pm, and I was only 15 min away but it was still not early enough! Consider having your wedding earlier if you decide to book a wedding with this location in Pensacola. Took about 1 hr to get to my wedding! One other mishap was the violinist was late but probably due to traffic, she was a ok violinist but I wish the music was louder, the waves from the ocean were loud so you could not really hear the music that well. She also played the music I picked in the wrong order. Other than that everything was good! The set up was beautiful! Weather was perfect! Something is always going to happen on your wedding day and I hope this review will help other people with their wedding plans:)

I highly recommend Shannon Crona Wilson and Table 6 Productions! Soon after my fiancé proposed to…read moreme, I reached out to Shannon to discuss hiring her to be our wedding planner. I'll admit that planning a wedding is out of my league. Additionally, I work part-time and I'm studying to be a psychiatrist. My husband is a biological scientist and conservation planner, which requires him to frequently travel. Not only did we not have any idea where or how to begin planning a wedding, but we also both have very little free time. From our first interaction with Shannon, we were extremely impressed. In fact, our first interaction with Shannon was on a Friday night since that was the only time that our schedules allowed us to talk with her. Throughout the nine months that we worked with her to plan our wedding, Shannon always communicated with us when it was most convenient for us - including nights, weekends, and even holidays. Because we live in Tallahassee, FL - the location of our wedding - and Table 6 Productions is located in St Petersburg, FL, Shannon communicated with us by phone and email. Shannon worked with every vendor involved in our wedding, which included negotiating and securing contracts with them. Although Shannon was working outside of the area of our wedding venue, the planning process was seamless. Shannon listened to our ideas for our wedding, and she then turned our dreams into reality. We have no idea if Shannon was working with other couples during the time that she was planning our wedding, as she never mentioned it. Shannon gave my husband and I VIP treatment, making us both feel like royalty. Since wedding planning is about your big day, why wouldn't you want to feel like you are the most important couple in the world? We set an original budget, which Shannon strived hard to adhere to. We did exceed it, but that was only by our choice. Shannon was very conscientious with regards to our budget, and she made recommendations about rentals and other aspects of our wedding that were not necessary in an attempt to stay within our original budget. Again, we only went over our original budget by choosing to have specific elements in our wedding that were not originally discussed with Shannon. Three months prior to our wedding date, Shannon made a trip to Tallahassee, FL to meet with all of our vendors, my husband, and myself. Several of our vendors mentioned to us that they were impressed that Shannon came to meet with them in person, as that is rare for other wedding planners that they've worked with - including ones who live in our area. In fact, all of our vendors and everyone involved in our wedding informed us how friendly Shannon was and what a pleasure she was to work with. Shannon's knowledge of the wedding industry, coupled with her attention to detail, allowed her to execute every aspect of planning our wedding with flawless precision and class. There is no possible way that our wedding would have come to fruition without Shannon's help. Over the course of planning our wedding with Shannon, we became so close that we consider her more than our wedding planner - she is valued as a member of our family. We utilized Shannon and Table 6 Productions for full-service wedding planning, which was the best decision we've ever made. On the day of our wedding, we enjoyed relaxing and spending time with our friends and family. The only thing that we had to do on our wedding day was show up to our venue and marry one another. Shannon coordinated every aspect of setting up for our wedding with our vendors, as well as the clean-up that took place afterwards. Several of our friends and family members who attended our wedding later mentioned to us that they wish Shannon was their wedding planner when they were married. They added that they had never seen a wedding flow as smoothly as ours did. To say that my husband and I are pleased with the service we received from Shannon and Table 6 Productions would be an understatement. Shannon exceeded our expectations and created the most memorable experience of our lives. We are forever thankful!

I could not be happier with my wedding day and I owe it all to Shannon Wilson!…read moreAn experienced and well connected wedding planner can make your money go a long way. She helped me stay on budget without having to make any sacrifices. She was so easy to communicate with-It was like having your most competent girlfriend (the one that also happens to have all the connections) laser focused on bringing your dreams to reality. She helped me sort through the countless vendors and matched me perfectly with each one based both on personalities and expectations. Shannon kept all the contracts together, reminded me of due dates for payments, and coordinated timelines with all the vendors. My husband and I got to sit back and enjoy the planning process, because we knew we had a professional to steer us in the right direction. Each taste testing or mock up was like a fun date that only brought us closer as a couple. Shannon helped ensure that everything was to my taste and I thoroughly enjoyed one of the most memorable days of my life. I don't know what I would have done without you Shannon!

From the moment I met Vilma, I knew that I found someone who is passionate about what she does…read more Vilma welcomed me to her office, shared with me the services that she can provide and assured me that I would be able to enjoy my wedding day, while her and her team take care of the logistics. Throughout the planning process, Vilma communicated in a timely manner, took all of my pinterest photo inspiration & asked clarifying questions to ensure that my vision was coming together. Vilma's team carried out our ceremony rehearsal and executed the day-of, without a hitch. And if there was a hitch, we couldn't tell. Everything from our floral designs, modern wedding arch, cocktail tables to our reception centerpieces exceeded our expectations. The flowers were fresh and popped with color. And the ceremony and reception space felt romantic and modern, which is just what we wanted. Thank you, to Vilma and the team at Cherished Ceremonies. We would live our wedding day over, 100 times, thanks to your services and beautiful creations!

Let me start by saying that I never had a Pinterest board for my wedding or any specific vision or…read moreinspiration. I had NO CLUE what I wanted. My husband and I were originally thinking that we were going to do it all ourselves- I realized that would be impossible for me to do on top of attending medical school in a another state. I began researching wedding planners and I stumbled upon Jennifer's Instagram. We got in touch and after speaking with her, I called my (now) husband and said we HAVE to hire her! We booked with Jennifer for Design and Event Management. It was the best decision that we made. Jennifer planned and organized tastings, the design presentations, and other meetings around when I could be in town and we didn't have to worry about a single thing. She handled all contact with the vendors and helped us tweak anything we were concerned about. If we needed a recommendation for other vendors, she always had a list ready for us. She went out of her way to stay in touch with us, to get another quote or vendor, and to make sure every single detail was absolutely perfect. She provided her wisdom and recommendations which we really trusted because Jennifer is truly an expert in her field. When it all came together in the final presentation, I knew that it would be beautiful- but it was still hard for me to see the complete vision in my head. It didn't all truly hit me until the day of- as the vendors were setting up and Jennifer had everything coordinated down to every single floral arrangement and furniture piece. Walking into my ceremony was truly breathtaking- all of our guests have commented over and over that it was the most beautiful wedding they have been to. We used the same venue for ceremony and reception, and the room flip was flawless. Before the guests came in, I commented to Jennifer that I have no idea how she sees all of this in her head and makes it happen- and that is truly how I feel. My husband and I keep saying to each other that we wish we could experience it again. We did not worry about a SINGLE thing on the day of our wedding. We were able to focus on our marriage and enjoying our food, drinks, cake, and the company of our guests without a single worry about flowers or tables or chairs. If you are looking for someone to make your day unforgettable- look no further! I have said this to anyone who asks and I truly mean it: I never had a dream wedding until Jennifer planned it.
