He always made himself available, whether in-person, by phone, email or even text. He was flexible, accommodating and really seemed like he cared about our wedding being a success. We never felt like just another couple on the calendar. Dawson also did our florals and did an incredible job. He went above and beyond to meet the vision we had in mind. We even had a professional florist as a guest at our wedding and she commented on how impressed she was by our florals. Evening looked absolutely exquisite and the day went so smoothly. Would absolutely recommend using Highpointe Estate as a venue and Dawson as a florist.

Words cannot explain how much I loved our whole wedding experience at HighPointe Estate! From our…read morefirst tour with Dawson, to floral consultations and our final walkthrough, to the actual day of everything was perfection. We went with their all inclusive contract and I truly cannot recommend that enough! The whole planning experience was seamless and went SO smoothly compared to some of the horror stories you hear from other couples. I really was not stressed during the whole process, which was much nicer than my expectations! Everyone we met and worked with on staff was so kind, polite and professional so if the absolutely stunning venue didn't sell you (which, how could it not)- let it be the staff. We truly had such a pleasant experience with everyone there. Dawson is flexible, understanding and is quick with communication- which is something I greatly appreciate. HighPointe also did our florals and boy howdy... be ready to see your pinterest dreams come to life and be a million times better than expected!!! Dawson works magic with the floral arrangements and has such a good eye for detail. There were a few design details I couldn't make a decision on and wanted to make a game time decision, but the day of I decided to let him and our day of coordinator make those decisions and I am so glad that I did because everything looked so much better than in mind! Overall, I really cannot imagine getting married at any other venue and I am so excited to get our photos and video back so I can relive the day at this gorgeous venue over and over. Thank you so much to the HighPointe Estate Team!!!

I had a venue booked for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary... then came COVID…read more The venue cut to 50% capacity, which made it too small. I had to cancel and re-think everything. The venue needed to be large enough to accommodate distancing, catering and food service was sketchy since many places closed, local restrictions were fluid and I didn't live in the city where the event would be held. At one point, I thought we wouldn't be able to celebrate more than having a small dinner. It was discouraging. Then I found Milestone Memories and Events. I had a good feeling about Geri after our first phone call. The second call confirmed my initial impression. I needed someone with experience and good judgment that I could trust for advice. After all, large events take hundreds of decisions and bad choices can create bad experiences for all the guests. To give context, the guest list was 250 people. Given the circumstances, I estimated 100-150 would attend. The final RSVP count came in at 140. This was not a small event and we pulled it off in four months! Here are just a few highlights of my great experience with Milestone Memories: - We developed a budget, and came in under - They got to know us and designed decor and settings to match (my mom loved everything!) - Everything LOOKED AMAZING, tables, center pieces, lighting, photo backdrop, entry tables - All the logistics like how people enter, move, exit, accounting for seating, everything was great - They found the venue, catering, music and negotiated many details so I only made major decisions. I can't tell you how important that is because it can be overwhelming dealing with multiple contracts when the event is personal. - They took care of my parents and were so thoughtful of all their needs on the day of the event - Excellent communication throughout Geri and her staff are genuine, caring people and I'm so thankful we met. Don't misunderstand, she's a skilled project manager and straight forward communicator that will take care of business! What I mean is she thought of details that I could never have thought of. For example, she created a space for my parents to rest before the event and stocked it with a beautiful snack tray. She arranged a "Grand Entrance" which turned out amazing. My parents had a "first dance", and I mean they had never danced in public before, even at their wedding. This was Geri's idea and it made such an impact! This is the longest review I've written and it is still too short. What a great 4 month journey this was with Geri to create such a memorable celebration for my parents! People are still talking about it a week later. I still get emails and texts complimenting how great it was, and we have the best pictures to help us remember. Here's are a few things people are saying: "elegant", "fun", "relaxed", "beautiful", "amazing!"... My mom and dad loved everything! After working with Geri and her team for 4 months, I 100% recommend them to anyone needing a spectacular event!

I would definitely recommend this place for any event. We saw some deers around the property, that was cute!

Good way to also give something special back to all the families who took the time to come. Parents loved watching their kid have an opportunity to ride and have fun. Affordable.

Aaron brought the jams. Heard about him through my venue, Mercury Hall. Thankful for that referral!…read moreAaron was prompt in his responses and went through everything in our consultations. He even followed up multiple times when I was too busy with other wedding stuff. He kept the jams going and was able to adapt to my last minute requests (like when I asked him to redo the garder toss song ). My siblings all used their friends to DJ their weddings and I'm so glad I picked Aaron. He even brings his dance lighting which made it even more legit. Great job Aaron!!!

Aaron was the Dj for our recent wedding on April 16 at The Allan House. Leading up to the wedding…read morehe was extremely helpful providing us with a music worksheet and talking on the phone with me and my wedding coordinator multiple times making changes and giving suggestions. We had quite a few songs that weren't your normal song requests and he was more than accommodating. The best part of having Aaron as our Dj was how much he rolled with the flow the day of. It was raining the day of our wedding and unfortunately the tent was leaking Into the area where he was supposed to set up. Our ceremony was delayed over an hour so it cut into a lot of our dancing time. He was able to set up in a different location no problem. After we finished all the ceremonial items I gave Aaron the thumbs up and he immediately kicked up the music and got everyone dancing for the 45 minutes or so that we had. I felt like even though time was short all the songs we really wanted were played and everyone had a great time. Would DEFINITELY recommend Aaron for your wedding or special event.

We wanted to keep everyone shaking it on the dance floor all night. We immediately knew Jeff Hudson was our guy; he was patient, creative, and thoughtful. As an added bonus, he was able to add some amazing string lights to our venue, just as we envisioned. Jeff with Spacecraft Entertainment brought the heat (it was a cold wedding night) and then some. At each step of the way, he helped us curate the perfect playlists for the pre-ceremony music, ceremony song edits, cocktail hour, and reception. He seamlessly blended our diverse musical taste and somehow found a way to take our guests on a majestic dance journey. The dance floor was packed all night and he ended with the perfect song, which ended up providing some great videos and pictures of our night. I hope we get to work with Jeff in the future and may need to throw another party just as an excuse to make that happen. We can't recommend him enough!

Overall: We invested a lot of our time searching for Hana, and working with her to carry out our…read moresmall wedding. While we do appreciate her time and all the work she did, we cannot recommend Hana as a wedding coordinator because of her unprofessionalism. Please read below for why. For more questions, please reach out to us: noobebe0710@gmail.com. We hired Hana as our Day-of Coordinator for our wedding with 40 guests on October 5, 2024. We only hired her for Day-of Coordination and not Full Coordination since we were on a budget, and I, the bride, took on most of the planning with the help of my groom. We chose her over fourteen other candidates we thoroughly interviewed, where we spent about an hour for each interview. At the time of interviewing and hiring Hana for the job, she was very enthusiastic and thorough in explaining her role and the additional things she could assist with. Here are her assigned roles from our contract: I reviewed how each role went during the wedding: P for positive on what she did well. Our constructive feedback is below for what could've been done differently. P: She was fun to work with and very easy to reach before the wedding, even during times when she was sick. I was living out of town and the groom was living in Austin while planning, and most of our communication was virtual. She always tried her best to execute the vision we had for our wedding. Timeline management: Ensure the wedding stays on schedule P: On our wedding day, she was punctual and ensured she was the first person at the venue, making sure everything was organized. Rehearsal: Attend and coordinate the wedding rehearsal with the officiant to make sure everyone knows what to do when P: During our Rehearsal Lunch on October 4, 2024, she helped us coordinate our wedding entourage along with the DJ, which was very important to us since we wanted our plans to be executed smoothly. Venue walkthrough: Oversee the final walk-through of the venue P: She attended the venue walkthrough on September 19, 2024 and met with our photographer. Decorations: Ensure all decorative items are in place P: She did well when directing the setup for the wedding ceremony. She also assisted other vendors with logistics, whether it involved decorating or setting up for the reception. Vendors: Manage vendors when they arrive and confirm their setup locations and arrival times Ceremony: Line up everyone for the ceremony and cue the officiant and musicians for key moments P: She was able to tell us our officiant was late and she tried her best to contact him. He arrived on time. Reception: Coordinate the couple's entrance into the reception Cleanup: Oversee the breakdown and cleanup of the venue P: She made sure the venue was clean as the wedding concluded. She helped direct what happened with the wedding decorations during the cleanup afterward. Our decorations went to different cars. Even if some of our family members didn't give her the keys, she carried decorations to the cars. She tried her best to make sure the decorations went to the correct car. Communication: Keep everyone involved informed so the day runs smoothly Areas for improvement: For example, she could have contacted our other vendors such as our wedding cake vendor and DJ during the wedding planning process to ensure better synchronization on the wedding day. We understand that we only hired her for Day-of Coordination and not the full service, but we hired her believing that she would still assist with "some part" of the planning. It was very important to us that she proactively contacted our vendors so we wouldn't have to worry about the logistics. We also wish she had given clearer instructions to the vendors about our specific requests and expectations. Although my husband and I also discussed our expectations with her, it should've been written into the contract. Unfortunately, it didn't feel like she made much effort to contact them in advance. While we provided the vendor's contacts the day we hired her--almost two months before the wedding--there was no evidence that she reached out to them in a timely or consistent manner. This lack of communication became evident when our DJ made a few mistakes during the latter part of the wedding ceremony and parts of the reception. While we know this isn't entirely Hana's fault, we strongly believe that better coordination with the DJ could have prevented these mishaps.We also should've advocated having a meeting with Hana and DJ a week before the wedding to go over the final timeline since DJ Abner had a big role in the timeline. After the wedding, we tried reaching out to Hana for clarifications and feedback. We called, texted, and emailed her multiple times to set up a simple discussion, but she didn't respond promptly--or at all--for several weeks. When she eventually did respond, her email was not apologetic, nor did she acknowledge any responsibility for the mistakes or mishaps.
