We booked the candle-making session as a couple and were assisted by two young women who unfortunately did not seem very welcoming or engaged. During our session, they had personal conversations directly in front of us, including comments about how they did not want to be there. That made the experience feel uncomfortable and unprofessional. For the cost, I also expected a more extensive candle-making experience with a larger variety of options and scents to choose from. The selection felt very limited for the price. The music was definitely the best part of the experience and created a nice atmosphere. Unfortunately, based on our experience, I would not return.

Upon my request I was notified 30min before before their arrival that they were on their way, which was greatly appreciated. When they arrived there was a small issue with the screen door and the couch fitting through the door way. They actually went so far as to remove the door, get the couch in, and replace the door all within about 10min! Overall a great experience, and will definitely be back with any furniture needs I have in the future.
