Olga worked with us to help plan our fairy tale wedding when we were supposed to get married this May. Her suggestions were right in line with our style and her prices were very fair. When we had to pull the trigger on our big fat 500 person Indian wedding, Olga worked with us to design a whole new mini outdoor wedding this August. She helped transform a little outdoor gazebo into a beautiful wedding mandap, and truly worked with us on every detail until the last moment. She was very helpful when we had to postpone and let us move our deposit to a different day with no issues. When I asked for extra decorations last minute, she went out of her way to make it happen for us. I will definitely be using Olga and Prestige decor for all of our future events!

We hired Ginger and Peach (Andrea and Peri) for wedding coordination services at our venue, but our…read moreexperience was extremely disappointing and distressing. Throughout the planning process, they frequently complained about or questioned our preferences instead of offering helpful solutions. On the wedding day, they were not proactive with setup tasks and failed to assist with important logistical details. While they were somewhat helpful at the ceremony rehearsal, their support ended there. During setup the day before, they were supposed to stay and help, but one coordinator stayed for only about an hour, while my family and I were there for three. During that time, while we were rushing to get everything done, she moved slowly and unwrapped a few candles. She did not come prepared, ready to anticipate needs, or willing to take initiative. Their only meaningful contribution the day of the wedding was setting up the chairs that had been delivered. After that, they left the premises without our knowledge to go get dressed -- during a time when setup and coordination were still in full swing. Later, they also left during dinner service, which is one of the most critical parts of the evening for coordination and oversight. We later found out from our bartenders (who are also our friends) that the coordinators told them they "left during dinner to go scream to God for help." One of our guests also heard them shouting to God outside during this time. That comment and behavior -- combined with their lack of professionalism and failure to fulfill their responsibilities -- was deeply disappointing and inappropriate. Even worse, they complained about me to the bartenders, calling me a "bitch" and mocking us for practicing our faith -- all because I expected them to uphold their contractual duties, such as receiving the flowers and completing the setup. In the middle of dinner, Peri approached me -- in front of my entire table -- to ask about paying the bartenders. It was an incredibly inappropriate and disruptive moment, especially during what should have been a private and peaceful part of the evening. I later learned from one of the bartenders that she had already told Peri that the payment was taken care of, making the interruption not only unprofessional but entirely unnecessary. They also walked up to my sister-in-law in the middle of dinner to tell her to clean out the church, even though she was a guest and had no involvement in the planning. This task was part of the coordinators' own responsibilities, and asking a guest to do it was both disrespectful and unacceptable. Because they failed to coordinate as promised, my parents and brothers had to step in during the reception -- at one point even passing out cheese to guests themselves, something that should have been managed by the coordination team. There is no reason this should have happened, especially as I had hired six staff members to assist with the buffet dinner setup. Their behavior was unprofessional, disrespectful, and negligent. Instead of helping the day run smoothly, they added unnecessary stress and left us and our family scrambling to fill the gaps they left behind. I would strongly advise anyone to think twice before hiring this team.

There are so many choices that need to be made to make your wedding an unforgettable night…read more.. I can confidently say the best decision I made for my wedding was to work with Andréa and Parian of Ginger Peach to help me plan and coordinate my wedding. Let's set the scene... I'm an out of state bride planning a wedding from thousands of miles away. I'm overwhelmed with dealing with choices for vendors, dealing with work stress up to my ears, while simultaneously planning a two week trip to Japan for our honeymoon. I decided it was time for help. I joined a local Facebook group and immediately connected with Andréa who gave me thoughtful and helpful feedback that helped calm my anxiety-ridden state. I immediately knew that I wanted to reach out to her to see if her team was available. In a stroke of luck they were! Over the months that I connected with the Ginger Peach team, they were able to proactively connect with my vendors, ask all the right questions, seamlessly troubleshooted the problems that came up with ease (I forgot to pack my table numbers, the moms were very late to the ceremony, and one of my bridesmaids had to drop out to illness to name a few), they decorated for the day of my event, and even created my stunning centerpieces. I had the most amazing wedding day and I have received so many compliments on my wedding. Looking back I realize I had very little stress. I owe much of that to my decision to work with Ginger Peach. If you're on the fence, I urge you...or plead with you. Do yourself a favor and hire this team. When you look back you'll realize how priceless it is to have a team on your side helping to keep things running smoothly and ensuring you have the most fabulous day of your life.

When I changed my mind and decided I didn't want to leave God out of our wedding, I said that I would pay for and find the officiant. I admit I didn't shop around. My wedding planning approach was one and done. Once I found something I liked, I was done "shopping." I liked that Rev. Phil offered a free intro session before committing to his services. After the first one hour meeting, my husband also liked him and we were sold. We did the full package and I'd recommend it. The love story was definitely the best part of the service. It's true what the other reviewers said, people talked about that love story for weeks and months after the wedding. We were willing to make fun of ourselves and this really helped carry-off the fun of the story. Rev. Phil has a great knack for telling a story. Everyone was laughing, including us. So many of our pictures show me looking around to the crowd laughing at my ridiculous self and trying to make eye contact with someone mentioned in the story. We were also able to incorporate a touching candle-lighting memorial for my husband's deceased parents, as well as readings that were a mix of religious and secular. Rev. Phil is very detail-oriented and will give you explicit instructions and details about each part of the service. I found this helpful, as I didn't want to worry about all the details myself. As he says, he's the professional and will take the stress of this part of the wedding off of you. As a bonus, I heard he even "fooled" by super-Catholic mom by wearing his collar. No grief for no Catholic wedding! Rev. Phil really helped make our wedding a perfect, unique and special night! I'd recommend him to anyone!

If you are looking to hire someone to help make that day less stressful - I would NOT hire Misse Daniel.
