This company saved my big day! I was stuck for a celebrant for my wedding and this company put…read moretogether the most poignant and personal ceremony at really short notice. The celebrant was warm and welcoming to all of our guests and our family and friends said that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. I'm delighted they are offering this personalised service as it is exactly what us needed in a changing Ireland.

I booked this company for a destination wedding in Ireland. As a foreigner, I was unfamiliar with…read morethe marriage laws and found all the different types of ceremony requirements and specifications a bit on the confusing side. After looking at the website, I thought they were legally able to wed us. I contacted them verify the legality of the ceremony and to set up an appointment. They sent me a confusing response and asked me to wait a month in a half to meet after the new year. So, I waited. When we finally met, I made sure to clarify with the celebrant, prior to giving them my credit card info that they were able to legally wed us. They told us, 'Oh absolutely. You just need to get a signature from the registrar the next day.' Sounds great....here's my credit card. However, after turning in my intent to marry to the registrar, she informed me our celebrant is NOT a legal officiant. I went back to their webpage and found the question/answers section and found were they blatantly say the ceremony is not legal. I immediately contacted them about this and asked about a refund on Feb 17th. Initially they flat out refused to grant us a refund saying their webpage clearly states they are celebrants not solemnisers. (Again, foreigner here...I'm not familiar with the legal discrepancies...and I made it clear that I was unsure of things in our meeting.) They even told me after this that someone else was interested in booking our celebrant for the same day as us and asked that we let them know as soon as possible if we wanted to move forward with canceling without a refund. Anyway....After about 14 emails back and forth with them and talking to three different people we were finally granted our refund. Which was also a bit of a hassle, because I paid them by credit card, but they said they could only do a refund via bank transfer. So, finally 3 weeks later my refund arrived in my bank account. And 2 days ago, I received an email telling me the bank transfer went through last week and asking if I could please update my yelp review as they felt hurt by the original content, because they take their business seriously and because they apologised for what was a misunderstanding. Uhmmm...no, no you did not apologize. You expressed regret and unfairness to myself and the celebrant. You copy/pasted the paragraph on your website where it states the ceremony is not legal several times over in different emails. But you absolutely made it clear that you felt the mistake was all on my part and took no ownership and made no apology at all. I will say though, that I did get my full refund back. Which I appreciate.....and yes, I have updated my review at your request.

My experience with Fab Weddings has been terrible. I was planning my wedding from the states so…read moreeverything was done through email. I was as specific as possible about the amber colored uplighting I wanted and sent photos of exactly what I wanted. Alison assured me they could do amber but on the day of my wedding they were hot pink. This did not work at all with the Gold Salon at Carton House. My mom tried to call them several times to see if they could come fix it and her phone calls were never returned so we ended up just having them removed by Carton House staff. I emailed them after the fact and was given a partial refund but not a full refund. They have yet to give me the remainder of my money back. Not only that but my photographer took the majority of the photos of the venue before the uplighting could be removed so a lot of my photos are ruined. I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone.

We booked a photo-booth with fabweddings for our wedding last November. Pictures were stuck into…read morethe book on dust cover pages by the photo-booth attendant. There was an image in the middle of each photo which we asked to change multiple times on the night, not only because its a terrible image but also because it was a same sex wedding. We complained afterwards but very little was done, the company offered to send out new copies of the images, that is all. By far the worst part of our wedding.

This is a top notch florist! I'm in the states and needed to get a funeral spray with very little…read moretime. I sent my contact info and Fionnuala at the shop called me within an hour and helped me through ordering the right flowers. She even had all the information on the person that passed away and where the flowers needed to go. There was a change in funeral homes and she made sure my flowers were not only picked up but then got them to the church on time too! This was a 4 foot spray so it wasn't that easy to manage. My family called me the next day and said the flowers were beautiful and very tastefully done. If you want the best in class service and products, order from Scarecrow Flowers!! Blown away by their care and help across the pond! Above and beyond anything I could have imagined!!

They do good stuff, the arrangements always look the part but I would quibble about the price, I've paid anything up to 65 Euro for a bunch of 6 roses - granted I was in a hurry and needed something impressive... I'll leave the details to your self to work out, suffice to say they did the trick!
