*Review based on my impression from the venue tour*…read more First thought : wow, this surrounding view is nice. The drive to get to the venue after passing the gate reminded me of the other wedgewood wedding property I went to earlier in the year - nice houses, golf course, greenery. I can't follow directions and in an attempt to follow the instruction from the email, we went through the wrong entrance (aka side door), so for a few min it felt like we were playing escape room to find the phone that we were supposed to call. However, if you follow the instructions right, you should be able to see the fireplace right when you open the door. It's a nice grand entrance. The interior area is pretty nice, although it does look dated if you look closely. However, I feel like the layout didn't suit the vision of what we want for our wedding day. As for the ceremony area, I personally thought the indoor version looks/feels nicer than the outdoor version. The outdoor one would be easy access from the parking lot though. I loooved the bridal suite/getting ready area. The groom's suite was nice and spacious too, but has locker room vibe with hoops. The person (wedding expert) giving us the tour was very good at selling us the vision, giving detailed info, etc. As opposed to touring the venue first, eagle ridge gave us the run down and "sales/informational pitch" first. The sales pitch is v important for wedding venue shopping, so no negative connotation there. We ended up choosing a different venue: one main reason was the fact that we can't try the food first. We didn't feel comfortable locking in to an all inclusive venue that doesn't allow outside catering. The menu options look good enough, but how does it taste???? It would suck if we end up not liking the food during the tasting and having to settle for a "I guess this is fine because we have no other choice". We were ready to pay to be able to have the chance for trying out the food first. Unfortunately, that was not an option. The other reason was the fact that we don't have much getting ready time. If I remember correctly, you only get to go in the suites 1-2 hrs before start time. The club is only open to the members prior to that. Idk about other brides, but I personally would need a lot more than that if I'm doing makeup and hair there. The timing might be okay if you only plan on changing into your dress there.

Obviously, weddings are expensive and in our initial search for a venue I was so worried about finding somewhere beautiful that was worth the money. Carmel Fields is MORE than worth every penny. Alycia gave us our first tour of the property. She was extremely thorough and professional and answered all of our questions. During our tour, she informed me that they source the vendors to ensure a stress free day/experience. It sounded too good to be true, but it wasn't. After deciding to move forward, every interaction I had with the Wegdewood team was a world class experience. I do not say that lightly. They are all patient, kind, and so helpful. They go the extra mile to ensure your expectations are met and exceeded. Alycia was our coordinator for the event. She worked so hard to ensure that everything was perfect, and it truly was. I did not worry or stress about anything leading up to or during the event. Everything was organized and Alycia handled anything that came up. She was understanding and supportive and really helped with every aspect of the event. She is so professional and experienced and helped bring our vision to life. I am so grateful for her!! Moving on to the food... WOW. Out of this world. Every plate served was hot, fresh, and delicious. Our guests raved about the food. If you are reading this review and wondering if you should move forward with this venue, I highly recommend you do if you are looking to have a seamless, fun, and perfect event.

We went back and forth a lot to fine-tune everything, and she was always patient and helpful throughout the process.

I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend them to anyone. I absolutely loved everything they did

It's hard to believe it's already been almost a week since our wedding, and I wanted to take a…read moremoment to share my honest review of working with Lisa and her team at Expression Florals. When I first reached out six months before the wedding, Lisa personally gave me a call to go over my ideas and mood boards. She provided thoughtful, realistic feedback on what was feasible within our budget and even suggested alternatives that would elevate the look with her floral expertise. People always say your vision will evolve as you plan your wedding, and I didn't believe it until it happened to me. As a bride dealing with decision overload, I went back and forth with Lisa's team--probably nine iterations later--before we finally locked everything in. Through it all, Lisa and her team were incredibly patient, communicative, and kind. Just two days before the wedding, Lisa called again to ensure everything aligned with my vision. She even went the extra mile to confirm alternatives to a flower I didn't want. Despite sounding under the weather, she was still hard at work. Her dedication and passion for her craft truly shine through. On our wedding day, when my husband and I walked into the venue for our first look, our jaws dropped. Every detail we had discussed over months had come to life flawlessly. The florals were breathtaking, and our guests couldn't stop raving about them. Lisa and her team brought so much beauty to our day, and words can't fully capture how grateful we are. Their artistry and dedication gave us memories we'll treasure for a lifetime.

I got a call from the guy who runs that department a few days later saying that they were going to have really good sale starting on Monday and if I could come in and talk to him about it. I told him I would come by between 1 and 2 pm. I got there at 1:30 and there was no one in the door department. I was able to finally stop an employee to see if he could find the guy who called me. He couldn't. I stopped by the Pro Desk and asked if they knew where he was and was told he had the day off. He wasted my time for nothing. I'll still shop at Home Depot for some things, but I'll never deal with their departments that deal with items you can't just pick up off the shelf again.

Patty is absolutely amazing and I loved working with her!…read more I'm getting married in October in Carmel and was looking for a wedding planner to help me find wedding vendors, review contracts, and find a location for our rehearsal dinner and welcome party. Every Last Detail was the first company I called. I'm normally the type of person who calls around to explore options and find the best price, but Patty was so personable and made what felt like a daunting task seem fun so I booked her right away. I'm so glad I went with my gut because I couldn't imagine working with anyone else! Patty was very helpful and responsive. She also went above and beyond for multiple tasks. We live a few hours away from Carmel and wanted to plan a trip to visit some rehearsal dinner locations. We ended up planning this with only a few days turnaround time. I expected given the time crunch that Patty would give us a list of venues to check out based on our criteria, but she actually planned the whole trip for us! She introduced us to points of contact at each venue, scheduled each tour, and even mapped them out so we visited places that were in close proximity back to back and we didn't have to keep trekking back and forth between locations. It took all the stress off of planning and coordinating. I also know that finding spots that we would like was not an easy task in and of itself. My fiance, future mother in law, and myself all had some different/ vague ideas for the event. Patty did a great job finding locations that fit what each of us was looking for. We were so impressed, my future mother in law even hired her again after the fact to coordinate the day of the rehearsal dinner. I would highly recommend Patty and Every Last Detail for event planning!
