The arrangements were beautiful and so well thought out. The experience was worth twice what we paid and they will be my preferred event planner and florist in the future!

I was so grateful to find Moya through social media avenues. He was extremely responsive to us via…read moreemails and texts. He brought our vision to life and MORE! He gave us an incredibly reasonable price. He surprised us on the day of the event and even provided extra flowers and arrangements for our name card table. He has an eye for beautiful designs and elegant centerpieces and really listens to your interests. I gave him the chance to take the lead on our concept design for our wedding and he did a spectacular job. He made sure our day was stress free and even delivered our boutonnières to our hotel without question. My husband and I loved working with Moya every step of the way and he made our dream wedding come alive! Thank you to him and his design team, we will certainly recommend him to any and all of our friends and family in the future! He is a 5-star florist!

I highly Paul for any of your DJ needs! We found him on Yelp and Weddingwire and asked if we could…read morewatch him DJ locally to see how he performs and he provided us details on the time and location. He has a very simple and efficient set up with lights and sound systems. What was really impressive for us were the music videos that he played that went with the music. Once we saw that and saw/heard his transitions we knew he was the DJ we wanted. We had an unusual theme for our wedding, we did a costume theme "Talk Nerdy to Me" and Paul was not only happy to work with us, but he also had some awesome ideas on how to truly make it our own. With the video screen package, he was able to do movie/you tube clips and a slide show. When it came to getting strange and unusual music, Paul was able to do it with no issues. We asked for quite a few songs that were not in his database including traditional Chinese and Estonian Country music and he was able to get it with no issues. His online planning system made it really easy for us to put our Ceremony and Reception plan together. All of my guests LOVED the music choices. Part of it was our doing in putting together a song list, and part of it was Paul reading the party and playing accordingly. He even accommodated my niece's request for the Hokie Pokie. Don't take my word for it, Weddings are not the gigs he does in the DC area. Watch him in action and see for yourself. I feel that if other businesses book him on a regular basis, he is probably a good choice for your wedding. I am really glad I acted on this assumption, and had a chance to work with Paul. He has my highest recommendations.

Paul Garza DJed our wedding last Friday and did an amazing job. First of all, we only hired Paul…read moreabout a month beforehand because up until then, we thought my husband's friend would be able to DJ for us. At the last minute, he wasn't going to be able to get his equipment out to us in time so I found Paul and reached out to him. Paul told me he was available and met with us in person. He was reasonably priced and we couldn't have lucked out better for a last minute booking. Even though our friend couldn't DJ, Paul let him do all of the introductions which was really sweet. He even let our friend take the reigns and do a couple songs! Paul never felt like our friend was stepping on his toes and we really appreciated that he let us do that. Paul kept the party going from the beginning. I've had so many people since the end of our wedding telling me how great our DJ was. We had a weird mix of twenty somethings and sixty somethings with not much in between. Even still, Paul was able to judge the crowd and keep people dancing. I don't think there was a second all night long that people weren't all over the dance floor! His online portal is very straight forward and easy to use. I was able to put in many details and everything we wanted to hear was played at our wedding. Paul is also not one of those DJs that keeps interrupting songs to talk. He knew when it was appropriate to interject and when it wasn't. My husband commented that this was one of his favorite things about Paul: his professionalism on and off the dance floor. Definitely consider Paul Surreal Entertainment for your next event - you won't regret it!

Wise Films lets you do just that, experiencing the high of a tremendous day with their perfectly edited and filmed wedding videos. We went with the full package and have no regrets. Ethan packs so many incredible moments into his videos, including those that you didn't even realize were happening. Each time we watch these films, we find a new favorite moment or detail from the background. If you plan to have a fun wedding, I strongly encourage you to hire Wise Films. They will weave in your personalities and styles to the videos, while tugging at your heartstrings and making you simultaneously laugh and cry. Working with Wise Films is an investment in your marriage and in your family's continued joy and remembrance of your wedding day. It is the gift you can give your future selves.

If you book one vendor for your wedding, book Wise Films. I cannot say enough good things about…read moreEthan and Aaron Wise. I knew I wanted to book them for my wedding after I watched one highlight reel and they didn't disappoint. On the business side of things, Ethan is extremely professional and very responsive. Ethan sends you a questionnaire to better get to know you as a couple and sends you song options for the highlight reel. I think this is such a great idea because so many wedding videos have the same music over and over again. I also happen to think wedding videos are a bit cheesy, but I absolutely do not think that about Wise Films. They are shot so creatively that it doesn't feel hokey or cheesy to me at all. Both Ethan and Aaron were super easy to be around during my wedding day. They were nice, friendly and not too pushy. I forgot they were even there half the time and the shots they got were unbelievable. Your wedding day goes by so quickly, so I cannot recommend getting a videographer enough. And there is no better wedding videographer than Wise Films. I am in love with our highlights video and I can't wait to watch the full wedding video on our one year anniversary. Thank you Ethan and Aaron for capturing our day so perfectly that we get to relive it whenever we watch your film :)

Everything was perfect from the…read moremoment we arrived- our room was upgraded to the suite and our couples massage upgraded to a body treatment service- which was incredible. They have the most beautiful treatment room and most comfortable massage table I've even been on. The little touches are what put it over the top- the prepared charcuterie in the mini fridge- our preferred beverages stocked, rose petals on the bed, it was all very thoughtful and beautiful. You can tell Kelly takes a lot of pride in the integrity of the historic home and of her business. Ashley was wonderful too, they were excellent hostesses but did not hover and it felt very quiet and secluded- exactly what I needed! I hope to be back and make this a regular weekend or celebratory thing. The room service breakfast was also incredible. I highly recommend this hidden gem.

My husband and I always feel so welcomed here. Kelly is incredibly kind, accommodating, and inviting. Breakfast is excellent every morning, and they provide a daily charcuterie board to snack on, which is such a nice, thoughtful touch. We also loved that they have a fully stocked, self service coffee bar available anytime, featuring a great variety of coffees, espressos, teas, and even hot chocolate to suit whatever mood you are in. If you are looking for a place to unwind and relax, this is it. The staff is so friendly, and having spa services available right on site makes it even better. Plus, it is in a great location, just a short, easy drive into Middletown to grab lunch or dinner. This is the perfect place to truly unwind and recharge. Thank you Kelly for making us feel at home and for your generosity. Your warm and positive energy truly shows. We cannot recommend Beaver Creek enough.
