Through the entire process they were great and quick about answering all one million questions I had without making me feel silly. We are still getting compliments 3 weeks later! A lot of our guests said that they knew food trucks were becoming more popular but had never seen a bar truck before and thought it was the coolest thing. It was decorated beautifully and the entire set up had so much thought and care put into it. Some things didn't go as planned on our end, but they handled everything perfectly and didn't miss a beat! Our signature drinks came out perfect and they had them ready for us as soon as we walked back down the aisle after being married. I definitely recommend them to anyone considering a mobile bar service!

From the beginning they were great at answering all of my questions and helping to build a menu perfect for my event! Everyone was talking about how great the food was. The honey garlic chicken and stuffed mushrooms were some favorites! Also the charcuterie pockets were so beautifully displayed. They do not need a kitchen, carried everything in for us and set it all up perfectly. I will definitely be using them again. Thank you!!!

What a great DJ service!! We had Joe as our DJ last weekend at our wedding and I had guests coming…read moreup to my mom to tell her how much fun they had and how great the DJ was. Joe did an excellent job as the MC of our wedding reception and accommodated all of my last minute changes. He kept the party rolling and our guests had an excellent time. All of the work I did with them prior to the wedding was super easy and enjoyable. I knew from the first time I got on the phone with Kimberly that they were the ones I wanted to go with. They asked all the right questions and seemed genuinely interested in my wedding. I would highly recommend Music Box and Joe for your wedding or other event. They did an excellent job!

They think of everything ahead of time and helped us put together the timeline or our wedding in songs. The online forms to fill out for song choices was extremely helpful and made things easy. Kyle was organized and professional and as weddings go there were a few hiccups and he rolled with the punches and was very quick to change things up if I requested it that way. He was personable and was respectful of the kind of evening we wanted to create. Thanks so much!

We turned to Nicola at Simply Brilliant when we realized that while we didn't need a full service…read morewedding planner, we did want someone who could help keep us on track with planning and make sure we were not missing anything important during the planning process, but especially to have someone who could be there the day of the wedding to make sure that we would be able to relax, and that no family members had to stress out over helping us instead of just enjoying our day with us. During the process, Nicola was very organized and professional, and was very accepting that we did not need her full services. But she did provide us with an excellent timeline of where we should be during the planning process, as well as provided us with solid vendor recommendations. Was also more difficult because one of us was organizing the wedding from long distance, and we very much appreciated her help in supporting our local family in accomplishing all our goals. Our wedding turned out flawlessly and we owe part of her to her organization and mindfulness. On the day of the wedding, she did an excellent job in making sure things went smoothly and that everything progressed on time, and worked well with our families and our reception venue coordinator.

Ryan Abney Event Design was the best choice for us and I knew it as soon as I met Ryan. I could…read moretell right away that Ryan was very organized, but also extremely friendly with a calming presence. When we started planning our wedding, we had no idea of where to start and didn't know the questions to ask. Ryan walked us through the process and helped us identify all the areas that we needed assistance. Ryan had suggestions for all portions of the planning and really kept our personalities and goals in mind as well as being mindful of our budget. We were in a unique situation where our first wedding celebration, originally planned for March 2020, was canceled due to COVID. Ryan helped us navigate a completely unknown situation and really took a lead in communicating with our vendors. We also had issues with our first venue and as it was unable to be used, she was able to help us recoup our expenses. Due to ever changing COVID regulations, we moved our celebration back until 2023. Once a new venue was found, Ryan worked with us to replan according to the new venue specifications so she helped us plan what amounted to two weddings at two locations. Our day was amazing. Everything was perfect and went according to plan. Ryan was available during the event for any needs, but her impeccable planning skills helped everything run so smoothly that we didn't really need anything. I had multiple attendees comment about how much they enjoyed the wedding and could tell it was a reflection of us as a couple. Even more importantly, my husband and I had an amazing time. I tell everyone that my favorite thing about the wedding, besides marrying my husband, was having Ryan as our wedding coordinator. She is amazing at her job and I felt like we all became close during the multiple years that we were working together. Having her involved in our wedding celebration was the best decision from both a financial standpoint and lowered my stress level immensely. We have recommended her services to friends getting married; they have enjoyed working with her too. If ever responsible for planning another large event, I would be hiring Ryan Abney Event Design immediately.

From the moment we met Ryan when she gave us a tour of the Belle Isle Boathouse, we knew that she…read morewas someone we could work closely with to plan our wedding. She was professional but also very laid-back, especially compared to other planners/event space managers that we met. After we talked to a few couples who worked with and spoke very highly of her, we had no reservations about hiring her as our planner. Ryan is hugely connected with event spaces, hotels, caterers, florists, bakeries, DJs, liquor stores, and event rental businesses due to her years of experience planning major events in the Detroit metro area. This meant discounts for us, excellent customer service from our vendors, and her experience with individual vendors meant we could be sure they were excellent and reliable so our wedding weekend was stress free. She was also appropriately hands off when we wanted to pick certain things on our own. Ryan is just incredibly experienced and that's the type of person you need to plan a big wedding. Preparations for our wedding weekend went seamlessly. We live in New York so with the exception of 3 or so in person meetings, all our communication was by phone, email, and text. She was super available and responsive and notified us if she would ever be away. She gave us deadlines to keep us on track and reminders when these were approaching. Everything was organized on our chosen shared planner document. Due to Ryan's organization and calmness, we never felt overwhelmed during our planning. When we had concerns such as our budget, we brought them up to her, and she was quick to address them, either via email or over the phone. She was easy to schedule these meetings with and helped us frame how often we needed them. She always had an agenda for each meeting so they were actually quick and productive. On our wedding weekend, Ryan ensured that everything ran smoothly, so we were able to enjoy our events without any undue stress or consternation. Of course nothing was perfect due to unforeseen family drama and the like, but even though a few things went wrong, we never even knew because Ryan took care of everything. Because she's such a professional champ with events, she had extra napkins and disposable plates in the car, things like that. Ryan managed all these extra details like hand making our table assignment escort cards and creating a beautiful display in the women's restroom with all sorts of toiletries, mint, floss etc. She also had extra napkins and disposable plates and the like in her car, just in case. Its these minor details that she managed in a 3 day event for 200 people that make her a total expert event planner. We would strongly recommend any couple work with Ryan for their wedding, or really any event. She was professional, diligent, experienced, easy-going and a pleasure to communicate and work with. She made our wedding weekend the best of our lives, and for this we will always be grateful and consider her a friend. We are happy to speak to any potential clients if you have specific questions about working with Ryan. Feel free to email at mikeandmaz2018@gmail.com.
