    my wedding cake featured on the front cover of my venue's magazine! best $400 i have ever spent.
    Ann H.

    this is a long overdue review, but here's to my 300th! i hope that speaks to how highly i think of this local business! whenever any of my friends in colorado get engaged and start wedding planning, i immediately recommend nancy best cakes to them! wedding planning can be so stressful and just crazy but nancy goes out of her way to make life easier for you and to cater to your preferences, down to every last detail. her cakes are the ultimate winning combination of delicious, gorgeous, and very fairly priced. for $400 (through an all-inclusive package at my wedding venue), i was able to customize my cake inside out. it was even featured on the front cover of my venue's annual magazine pamphlet. while every single wedding vendor i interacted with tried to nickel and dime me for everything, nancy did the complete opposite. she quickly found out that i was a dessert fanatic and that i was super excited about cake tasting. i couldn't decide on just one or two flavors of cake to try so she gave me a sampler of at least 12 flavors and icing/buttercreams (with variations in sugar content), along with 3 types of fondant. i was planning a wedding from out of town so the one day i was in colorado, i had to meet with all my vendors in back-to-back meetings. nancy was extremely understanding of my situation and had a brief but comprehensive meeting discussing my vision for the wedding and the cake. all the cake samples were beautifully packed up in a neat to-go box that nancy had prepared, so that we could take our time and figure out our favorites at home. i did my initial tasting 7-8 months before my wedding because i was so excited about the cake and nancy didn't pressure us at all into deciding anything at the time. she said we could even wait until a few weeks before the wedding to finalize the design and flavors. of course, when i got to be around that time, i had forgotten which flavors i really liked from the sampler. really, it was more like i couldn't decide because they were all amazing. and i'm not just saying that -- i have had plenty of wedding cake and they taste just like they sound.... plain, boring, wedding cake. but nancy's cakes are truly something else. anyway, nancy was glad to give me another giant cake sampler the next time i was in town for another full day of wedding vendor bootcamp. my meetings were so packed throughout the day and some were going over time and pushing into other meeting times. i was super stressed and worried that i might miss my flight back to texas since i still had to make a stop to pick up the cake sampler. as i was figuring out what to do, nancy completely read my mind, called me, and asked if she could deliver the sample box TO MY HOUSE. what kind of ridiculously amazing service is this?! i was so extremely grateful i was at a loss for words. soo as far as wedding planning, i became a crazy person and pinned everything on pinterest. i literally had a board for wedding cakes with 75 pins and in the end, my cake was a combination of 4 cakes and a different flavor cake and icing in not only every tier, but each of the 3 layers in each tier! you do the math. i think any other cake artist would have fired me as a customer but nancy was glad to do it and so genuinely nice ALL THE TIME. and on top of our hands down gorgeous cake (for which she supplied the flowers bc our florist was too stingy to), she also made petit fours for our dessert table -- FREE OF CHARGE. it was truly unbelievable and i can't even describe how great everything tasted. just check out the pictures. :) i almost wish i could go through wedding planning all over again and have some sort of second wedding/renewal ceremony just so i could get another cake from nancy! she easily beats out other cake companies that charge minimums of $1000-2000 and adds on fees for everything! nancy has been doing this for years and is such a pro. she delivered and set up the cake and desserts on the wedding day (with a gorgeous cake stand of my choosing that she included for free) and everything went perfectly. i truly could not have asked for more. as far as communication, ashley b's review is spot on. nancy prefers phone calls but even if you email her essay-length emails full of pictures and requests she will read every last word and make your cake exactly as you envisioned. i LOVE nancy best cakes!!! p.s. her photos on yelp, her website, and her photo book are really outdated (think 1990 camera quality) but i'll be posting some of mine here so you can get a true glimpse as to how amazing her work is!

    HI Nancy!! We thought you were an exceptionally nice person. For our first meeting we were drilling you about your services because we wanted to ensure we got the right person. You were so professional and kind. When we did the sampling I could not believe what you did for us! You provided 3 different types of fondant to try. 3 frosting flavors, and several different cakes to try. We were floored at how much cake you gave us. I appreciated that you actually made us a small cake of what our wedding cake would look like. That was super amazing! We had a hard time deciding on a flavor because they were all good. We wanted a cake that was affordable, yummy and very beautiful. Your carrot cake and lemon cake was super moist and very good. Thanks for doing all the different combinations for our wedding cake. Our guests stated, "wow, that cake was good." I loved the look of our cake, and the quality. You truly are a remarkable person and I will miss talking with you. You have a heart for this business and I can see that you love what you do. Thanks again for providing us with a great cake. In the future, you will be hearing from me so you can make me another yummy cake!! I wished they had a way to upload pictures so people can see what you did for my wedding. it was such an elegant cake.

    If I had only one word to describe the wedding cake Nancy Best Cakes made for us, it would be PERFECTION

    I cannot recommended Maramor Events & Entertainment more! I hired Gabriella to be my wedding…read morecoordinator and she made the process so easy. We had a backyard wedding so there was a lot of coordinating between vendors and Gabriella made it seamless. She was always willing to answer my hundreds of questions, she put together a wedding inspiration board to help with decor and colors, reach out to vendors for quotes, and so much more. The day of our wedding, Gabriella and Frank made our day absolutely perfect. Both my husband and I were able to relax and not stress about the details the day of because we knew Gabriella and Frank had it covered. They created binders that had all the vendor information, day of timeline, venue layouts, etc. that they gave to us and the other vendors so everyone was on the same page. They set up all our centerpieces and put out all the decor we had gathered for the wedding. I added some pics because they did amazing. I didn't have an exact idea what I wanted so I told Gabriella to use her creative freedom and I loved it. I had also mentioned to her that I forgot to order a sign for our guest book the week before the wedding and she immediately offered to make one for me and bring it the day of. They made sure we had a drink and/or food in hand throughout the whole night and handled any questions from various vendors or guests so we didn't have to. My dream day would not have been what it was without all their help.

From proactive, detailed checklists and periodic check-ins to developing last-minute contingency rain plans, Mariah thoughtfully helped execute our vision to a T.

I deal with a lot of vendors and I knew my same-day request (on a Saturday no less) would probably be met with cranky "not possible in the timeline" responses. Instead, I met Jolene on the other end of the phone. What a warm and positive person! She immediately took on my problems with grace and alacrity. She not only solved the heaters and blanket asks but also added so many details that I would never have thought of. Baskets to hold the blankets. Blankets tied with twine. Additional black napkins in case someone was wearing a dark outfit. Found local wines and beers. Just extremely thoughtful in everything she did. My event was not big or expensive. I'm from out of town so I'm probably not a repeat client (wish I could be!). And I had a very last minute weekend request. And Jolene pulled through 110%. I would trust her to plan just about anything. You'll be in the best hands.

I learned sooooo much from Phillip, I wish I would have taken notes, (bc there was room on the backside of the menu), just another small detail that makes me want to book again!!! I can't wait till I plan a trip to Vegas, as I will be booking them again. Oh and did I mention the whole staff wore masks the whole time! It was safe, delicious and fun!!! Definitely worth the price!

He wasn't wrong! His whole team was professional and so much fun to be around. The limo picked us up & Angelique (our hostess) educated us about cannabis and terpenes & food pairing with it. Our first stop was at High Country Healing, where Joe (budtender) overwhelmed us with buds, jars & smells! He made us feel so relaxed We stopped at the eatery to meet with our chef and have an appetizer. He was absolutely amazing and food was scrumptious! Next we went to our private wine tasting & pairing with Susanne (Frisco Wine Merchant). Another great fun educated lesson, she was a hoot! Then we went back to the eatery for our delicious entree & dessert. Also, we had the best Fall scenic route. We LOVED everything about it! We would love to do it again!
