From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and genuinely enjoyable. I shared a very specific vision (including a rendering), and they brought it to life exactly as I had hoped -- truly spot-on. The colors, proportions, and overall balance were perfect, and the final result matched the concept beautifully. The balloon display elevated the entire event, and we received so many compliments throughout the evening. You can really tell how much care, creativity, and attention to detail goes into their work. I couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out and would absolutely use them again for a future event. Highly recommend!

She responded to my questions quickly and was always willing to adjust our invoices or provide recommendations. They are also the most affordable company I've found in the DC area. On site, the catering team went above and beyond to ensure our events went seamlessly. I have never had guests compliment the staff and the menu as much as they did with St. Germain! As the event coordinator, I appreciated that Ceecho, Donal, and Johnny checked in with me throughout the event, quickly adjusted to the schedule changes, and were efficient and helpful throughout the set up and tear down process. I highly recommend Saint Germain for our next catered function in DC! We will be a repeat customer for sure!

Not only did they make me feel comfortable and excited with their presence but Kia also helped with our timeline in a way that made everything go extremely smoothly. When him Conor and I. Had a meeting couple weeks before the wedding. We were struggling with the timeline of everything and how we're going to incorporate the Persian ceremony with American ceremony and Kia was able to explain how it will be done so effortlessly. As for the actual music, we sent a couple ideas what we wanted the night to be like in Kia couldn't be more perfect in his effortless djing and MCing. And Farzan was a tremendous add, I am so happy We have also had him to compliment Kia. Everyone we spoke to after the wedding could not stop raving about both of them. Also both of their extremely positive attitudes was a cherry on top- they were truly a huge part of the night and couldn't have gone as smooth as it did without them. I need Kia to make a playlist on everything he did because OBSESSED. My maid of honor getting married next year also using Kia also said she is now soooo excited to use you guys!

I'll definitely be seeing them again next year.

Why all of this fun you ask well it's because they have a great team of party entertainment to cheer them on and actually they (particularly one of the gals who looks like actress Maria Conchita Alonso back in the day) is dressed kinda of like a cheerleader complete with Go-Go boots which gives adults like me something to enjoy. They provide music, songs, professional DJ, party lights, clowns, costume characters, face painting, contest and games, photography, puppet shows, and a whole lot more for up to a couple of hours to give your little ones a party to remember. I must say that they did wrangle up all the kids and kept them entertained for a long time well at least they weren't jumping on me and I got a chance to eat some food. They gave a nice interactive show involving all the kids and kept them busy. A few tears came about when Elmo came out, always same reactions with Santa too. They watch them on TV and in the picture books but yet face to face with the characters they get scared....... I don't get it..... anyway my friends thought that they were great I thought that they put on a nice show for the children everybody was happy. They arrived on time did a great job and I don't think their prices were too high at all but they have different packages available so adjustments are made to suite the needs of the event. So good entertainment group for kids at least 2 and up they also adjust activities to medium age of the party goers and they even get the adults involve with the little games too so be ready to look crazy but it's all good.

Overpriced, lots of stress…read more We found out about L'ambiance and Priti through our wedding planner while preparing for our wedding Dec 2020. Covid ultimately shut down our event. As a result, we had to eat a portion of the cost of flowers for the event as well as needing to contract to use them for when we rescheduled. This was fine and we ate that cost. When we were able to finally manage to get all vendors to agree on a new date, we found out that l'ambiance increased fees as now the wedding would take place in the summer. Keep that in mind when planning. Priti was busy and unable to meet with me in person to actually start planning until maybe 10 weeks before the rescheduled and larger wedding. We went back and fourth many times on ideas and ultimately finalized our contract merely two weeks before the wedding. At this point, even if I didn't like the pricing, there was no time for me to even shop around for anyone else. There were many little mistakes/fees added such as any supplies they had prepared to use for the canceled dec wedding and the prices of things were not consistent between contracts. (My advice is to print each proposal bc you cannot refer to the previous to see what she was charging, so if one price was negotiated down, something else was "mistakingly" increased to recoup costs) Also the week before the wedding she realized her system had made a mistake on the contract and needed us to re-adjust yet again. Just extremely stressful and didn't really foster trust from my perspective. Ultimately, the finished product was fine. There were things that she claimed to take "artistic" liberties on but that mostly looked like they ran out of flowers plus she never ran those "liberties" past me. For someone spending 30k + divided between two events, she never connected with us after she got her money. When you are doing your budgeting, also add that you will have to provide a lot of hotel rooms for her workers even if the venue is only 1.5 hours away from her office. Also, some of her workers were found to have crashed our wedding and got drunk off our open bar and were found puking behind the event location. I'm glad they had a hotel nearby to sober up to break down the decor on Sunday morning. She will deny this. In the end, I would advise that you carefully review your contracts and that no matter what you agree and sign for, vendors can/and will change it last minute as there is no contract police to help you on your wedding day. Also, be aware that anything custom made for your event you will pay exorbitant pricing for and you will not be able to keep it without paying an even bigger price to take it off her hands. Long story short, end product was fine, sure, but very overpriced. Be prepared for a lot of miscommunication back and fourth and last minute contract changes as you will find many mistakes. Very stressful process.
