I was initially very nervous to hand over my wedding to her as I had spent SO many hours on all the details but I'm SO glad that I did. She executed it with such attention to detail. I mean she was even replacing candlesticks as they were burning out! It was so helpful having her there to navigate the ceremony rehearsal the prior day and then making a weather call the day of. Her and her team worked SO hard to make all my wedding dreams come true. Whenever an issue came up they were very quick to fix it. She was extremely adaptable and no problem was too big for them to solve. My seating assignment were hand written cards that they had to so meticulously hang each card with lots of different adhesives. They kept us on a tight timeline even though all the speeches were WAY longer than they were planned to be. I'm so grateful for her an her team and she is such a pleasure to work with.

The crew that arrived to help (server, bartender) couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. Honestly! It was literally ZERO stress for me.

Without a Hitch made our wedding day such a beautiful success! Our wedding planning was plagued…read morewith constantly changing COVID regulations and I was full of anxiety about how our big day would go. Allison and Sarah could not have been more comforting and proactive. Over email, phone, and video call, they put my mind at ease and I felt so prepared the day of my wedding, no matter what restrictions were in place. Allison could not have done a better job the day of. She built a great rapport with my family, bridal party, and the venue's event manager to ensure the day ran smoothly. She knew the schedule and set up like the back of her hand. When the timing of certain day-of activities changed last minute, she made sure to let me know of the changes and the night went on without issue. If it were not for COVID and my anxieties around how it would affect our wedding I likely would not have looked for an outside coordinator- our venue did provide one that began to work closely with us (and Allison) in the month or so before the wedding and I truly believe she would have done a comparable job in the day-of execution. But it's the long term commitment to the planning process that makes Without a Hitch special. And while our venue did not host many weddings during COVID, Without a Hitch planned so many, and had the experience and suggestions that made the wedding feel as normal as it possibly could. For any of my friends planning weddings at a less conventional venue or just want more support, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Without a Hitch, and more specifically Allison!

I would turn to Without a Hitch for any major event and know I can trust them to care about the details as much as I do.

Wedding day came and everything was perfect. From the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to the reception the team worked hard to make sure everything flowed so perfectly. They kept the energy high without missing a beat. Our dance floor was filled the entire night. They say people always remember 2 things at a wedding, the food, and the music. I can say with my whole heart that choosing ATOC was the best decision. Thanks to Dave our videographer, we are able to relive our special day over and over for years to come. We got our edited and unedited videos back and he captured every moment perfectly. If you are on the fence about having a videographer at your event..., DO IT!! You will not regret it! I cannot recommend ATOC enough! They truly helped make our wedding day unforgettable!! Thank you ATOC!!

He didn't stop moving and was running around the whole place inside and out getting all the guests involved. We asked for fun and that is what we got. There were engaging, different games, line dances (that he taught all of us) and great music. Everyone danced the night away!!! Professional service, reasonable pricing, and incredible talent!!!

This review is long overdue, as our wedding was in July, but Addie was so absolutely freakishly…read moreincredible to work with from beginning to end I wanted to be sure I had time to give her the stellar review she deserved (and add photos!) My husband and I were married in Boston this past July and Addie came recommended by another photographer-- I AM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL. We had a pretty fantastic wedding, and a lot of things went well, but by far the best decision I made was reaching out to Addie and having her with us on our big day. From the moment we reached out Addie was incredible thorough, sending over a timeline and spreadsheet which immediately won me over. Her meticulous planning continued over the course of the next couple of months, up until wedding day. Addie came to my condo to get ready with the bridesmaids and her assistant went with the boys. Addie is so, so easy to be around and does a perfect job of speaking up and getting people to do what they need to do, and blending into the background during important moments like the ceremony. Her personality is eternally positive and reinforcing and such a pleasure to be around during such an anxiety-provoking day. We were so satisfied before the pictures ever even came in-- and then they did. HOLY COW is all I can say. She is an absolute master of her art. The pictures from our wedding are beautiful, and carefully chosen, and capture intimate moments, quiet details, and scenes from the party that catch people in the midst of a high-jump, or boogie down. I have relived our wedding day several times over simply by going through the hundreds of photos Addie provided. Her package is reasonable and worth every penny-- she goes over and above to satisfy her clients. I truly cannot recommend Addie Roberge photographer with enough zeal. If you need someone to capture a day--be it a momentous one, or a quiet intimate one--Addie is your girl. (Photos attached by Jacqueline B.)

I contacted this lady from Alankar wedding decorator for my wedding decoration. Please stay away…read morefrom her. She is the worst vendor I have ever met, she lies that she can do any kind of design. First conversation she would make is, ask for her competitors quote and says I can give you lower price than them. She never suggest any new design or make any effort to show on new designs all she wants is about her competitors picture and quote so pathetic. She has no creativity all she does is just copies her competitors and tell she does it for less. When I asked her lot of questions about her style design, and if she is confident on doing new designs she got lost and started saying you are fake, you are a cheap client, you have no budget and she started barging me with lies. She even said I'm accusing her and playing dirty games she said I know who you are. Oh god it was non stop just stay away from this lady. My parents looked at her texts and were very upset, they called her immediately, no one picked up and voicemail was full. I had to block her. She has lost her mind. We decided to go with other decorator. It's unfortunately I contacted her Below in her comments clearly shows that she is lying. I have no time for her nonsense and she is a big liar. She has nothing new to offer just asks for her competitors quotes and copies them

Shobha Shastry is amazing. She runs and IS Alankar, and is completely, your safety net…read more She ran my wedding in July, she did all of the decor, she gave me contacts, she gave advice to the white Irish girl whose in-laws live in San Diego, while we planned the wedding in Massachusetts. Sometimes she's a little hard to get a hold of/to get to call you back, however she ALWAYS comes through in the clutch. She is a very busy lady, and has at least 1 wedding every weekend, but when it comes to the date of your event, you feel like you are the only one. I don't know what I would have done without this woman, I shudder at the thought. I can't thank Shobha enough for all of her help, her calm demeanor, and her keeping me sane.

Let me start by saying that Marx Entertainment provided both DJ services and Photo Booth services…read morefor our wedding. We were very unhappy with the DJ but happy with the Photo Booth set up and staff. My husband and I had DJ Craig for our wedding in September 2023. We had two meetings with him beforehand were we discussed how we would like the night to run. In addition to a list of "must-play" songs (something we were encouraged to complete), we discussed how we would like our table-dash, anniversary dance, alumni photo, and private dance to operate. We also noted on multiple occasions during both calls that we DID NOT want a lot of remixes. Unfortunately, we were disappointed with how DJ Craig managed all of these aspects except for the table dash and private dance. Here is where our issues lie: - Out of our 30 or so must play songs maybe half were played. - As laid out on the Marx Entertainment website we chose a "last song" for the dance floor. DJ Craig played the song we designated as our last song as a way to open the dance floor. - The first 30 minutes were exclusively remixes and bad ones at that. It got to the point where we said something to DJ Craig, and while the music did get better, he still continued to play remixes. Honestly, a Spotify playlist would have been better. - The anniversary dance was something DJ Craig suggested and we loved the idea. However, instead of doing what he had described to us where he starts calling people off the dance floor after some dancing and starting with short time increments, DJ Craig called for anyone married for less than 5 years to leave the dance floor after approximately 20 seconds. People hadn't even REACHED the dance floor to start dancing at that point, including the parents of the groom. Not to mention we are a young couple and that kicked more than half of the people off the dance floor in one sweep. - College alumni photo was announced at a very weird time and very rushed. Just felt awkward - We were immediately asked once the lights turned on to provide a positive video review for DJ Craig. This was extremely uncomfortable and we gave dishonest feedback during it. We would NOT recommend him. Like I said previously, the Photo Booth staff was excellent and we loved the book they made us. We also had no issues with booking or prior communication with Marx. While the set up and logistical execution of the event went well we didn't feel our opinions were considered at all in song selection and that the fun mini-events we had throughout the night went poorly
