What I saw here was: A big positive experience from the time I drove in to the time I left. The valet staff greeted me well and quickly before taking my car. The pickup was also very simple even though I left as many people were coming in. The ironic part of this visit is that I had been here (called GiGis) 48 year's ago for a wedding celebration.) The venue had clearly been updated and mondernized. It was really very nice here. A manager greeted me and was extremely helpful directing me to my room. There were two upstairs both large and clean. The room was lovely and beautifully decorated for the event which was a nice combination of Red & Yellow. For my very limited time here it was a wonderful experience. KUDOs to all the wonderful people at Verdis!!

I've worked alongside many staffing companies over the years and I must say, Janeen and her team were the absolute best!!

On top of that, her personality and warmth made her a pleasure to be around. Thank you again Janeen and team for all your hard work and dedication to making this wedding a huge success!

Will try to give my honest feedback from my experience with Rahel. I got the entire package from…read moredress, makeup, and photography. I will say I had a great experience with hair/makeup and dress but photography was such a horrible experience. We saw sample pictures beforehand and decided to go with Rahel but the pictures we actually got were no where near what we were given. I will preface and say that we were pre-warned that we were double booked that day and were not going to get the main photographer,however, I am not just upset at the quality of photos but just the lack of professionalism that followed. We ended up taking studio photos that day with the main photographer which actually were edited and came out nice, however, the pictures taken at the venue were terrible with the other photographers. Many of the pictures looked like we were inside a club due to horrible flash. Many pictures we were washed out with flash directly in our faces. Not just that but barely none were edited. We just got a photo dump of nearly 7 gbs of just raw pictures. We hired photography to get professional pictures but we just ended up with a photo dump of just raw photos and terrible ones at that. The worst part is I tried emailing the group about my concerns 3 times with NO response and am just amazed at their unprofessionalism with their clients. I guess once they have your money they just have no regard for you. If at least there was some dialogue about the situation I don't think I would have been as upset but the fact that before the wedding they were very responsive to the silence that followed afterwards is just what is very upsetting.

Stylish Events was one of the best vendors that saved my day. They delivered everything they…read morepromised and so much more under intense time constraints. When my venue, Leonard's Palazzo, did not have the chairs I requested, Stylish Events gifted me their chairs to use. They also provided complimentary cake decoration- my cake looked beautiful. My guests took home the floral decor in bubble bowls which doubled as ceremony decor. They said it was the most stunning wedding set up they have ever experienced. Stylish Events offers both in person and virtual appointments and they are also available on Saturdays. I selected them as my only floral vendor because of their flexibility, large collection of real work examples that they've done, and absolutely breathtaking floral designs. I worked with Sunny for over a year and he is a true professional. I presented a color scheme for my florals and he brought the vision to life.

I did not have to reach out to Stylish during my wedding week. They did exactly what we discussed and were on time.

I received countless compliments on both the jaago and reception!

I got married in October and hired Khadeja due to a friend's recommendation. At first, she was very…read morepolite and kind. After we booked her, however, things went radio silent. She had "other brides" she was tending to, and I understood. However, when my time did come, she dropped the ball on the following tasks: -communicating with my bridal/groom party in a timely and professional fashion -arranging the table numbers (many complaints from guests) -transporting my wedding portrait to the venue without hassling me -family pictures with bride & groom at reception -communicating with respect to stressed out family members (M.O.B & cousins) *and most importantly, failing to hire a back up assistant so she wasn't overwhelmed. Her assistant cancelled last minute, understandable. But this is where professionalism plays a big part. As a person who is not in the industry, even I know it is common sense to have someone on standby for such hiccups. She was accommodating to me when it came to my nerves, however that not the only thing I needed accommodations for. A little tip, a client never wants to see her Coordinator feeling bombarded or flustered. This experience was not worth our money.

I would definitely recommend her for any event.

Hiring Shirley as our day coordinator was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We had…read morea big wedding with 250 guests and I was anxious all the way up to the day of the wedding, but I was surprised by how much fun we ended up having at our wedding. I would say one big reason is because of Shirley who was there with us every step of the day. I knew I wanted a day of coordinators who are not only bilingual, but also know the Chinese wedding customs. We had many Chinese guests and family members who did not speak English, and this was the first wedding of parents from both sides. I wanted to make sure we have a good time, and our parents are also well taken care of since we will be too busy to tend to them. We had all our vendors booked before hiring Shirley so we booked the classic package. For this package, Shirley started working with us about 6 weeks before the wedding. She introduced herself to our vendors and made sure they had the itinerary before the wedding, attended zoom meeting with us when requested, and she was quick to respond to our requests and questions. Our wedding included elements from both Chinese and Western weddings, it was a 14-hour day including getting ready, gatecrashing, two tea ceremonies, photoshoots, a first look, ceremony, a quick first dance practice, receptions, and three dress changes (7a-11 pm)! With so much to do, we had a tight itinerary, and Shirley made sure the right people was at the right place at the right time so we are on schedule. She communicated with our wedding party on what's next on the itinerary, and guided our parents through the itinerary. Shirley did a mini rehearsal with our parents for the ceremony and reception introduction on the day, and made sure they were there to see our first look through the window without interrupting our own moments. We highly recommend Shirley to anyone who is looking for a wedding planner or day-of coordinator.

We did not know exactly what a Chinese and Vietnamese wedding fusion would look like and Shirley had some valuable experience to guide us. She was very honest and told us right off the bat if something wasn't going to work and how we could work around it. She did not pressure us to use her floral and decorating company, Jelo, but we did because it was so beautiful and flexible. She is very accommodating and knowledgeable about the wedding industry. Without her, we could not have planned our wedding so beautifully and although it was mentally draining to plan the wedding, Shirley definitely took a load off! Definitely consider hiring her if you are planning an Asian wedding!

I went with my Gut ... speaking w/ Mason was honestly a refreshing experience, he was not trying to up sell me, he was providing services, that he knew that i would actually need.

I had him take care of the music w/ DJ Xciti & a custom banner 8x8 for the red carpet & bring his c02 machine gun. Mason's communication and customer service was unbeatable. He did everything & i didn't even feel him there. Everyone that has done parties, knows its a lot of work, but if you hire Events By Mason you will not regret it.

We came across Exquisite and we were not disappointed. I asked around as I knew some people who had used Exquisite and they had nothing but great things to say. One of my bridesmaids went to multiple weddings with Exquisite as the DJ/MC and she said they always did a great job. Communicating was super easy with the team throughout the process. What i really loved was a few weeks before the wedding, Cathy hopped on what was supposed to be a one hour call, but ended up being close to two just so she could fully understand my wants and needs. She's also so hilarious! I'm so glad we went with her as our day of coordinator - it was super helpful. Overall great company to work with!
