Our first dance in the Dance Hall

I had my wedding at Shady Springs Party Barn back in April 2013, and I couldn't have had a better experience! The day went flawless and the food was fantastic!!!! I couldn't have found a better venue in Austin for our special day! The cost was reasonable and the owners are such a delight. We only used the dance hall, inside eating area, and we had our ceremony under the giant oak tree! But they have all sorts of other activities on the property that you can pay to use (pool, zip line, etc.) I would highly recommend this venue for a country style outdoor wedding!

Kelly & I looking on as we watch Lindsay & Dan get married!!!

See all

Jessika and 36th Street were the absolute best. Planning a wedding alone was not something we…read morewanted to do, so we made the decision to hire a wedding planner, and we made the right choice. After we had everything planned and ready to go, Covid threw a wrench in our plans. Jessika jumped in and made it stress free for us, making sure everything was moved to a new date and handled the details with the vendors. The day of went fantastic as well. Jessika and team were so involved in everything and made sure that we could focus on each other and not on everything going on around us. I CAN NOT recommend her enough.

I am genuinely disappointed to write this review and cannot recommend Ren Newey or 36th Street…read moreEvents. Our kids hired this planner, and from the very beginning there were warning signs-but the scope of the issues that unfolded went far beyond anything we could have anticipated. From not remembering meeting the groom after a one-hour introductory call, to ongoing disorganization, to inconsistent and frequently changing pricing, the experience was stressful throughout. We were quoted inflated costs for items such as generators-significantly higher than what we were able to negotiate ourselves-and were directed to vendors whose pricing was nearly ten times higher than identical products available on Etsy. Despite being repeatedly reassured that all details were handled, several critical failures occurred on the wedding day. The string quartet never arrived because 36th Street Events sent their information to an outdated email address. Instead of notifying the bride, groom, or any parents about the mistake, recorded music was played without explanation. Requested site visits never happened, staffing was not confirmed, and as a result dinner was delayed by 60-90 minutes, guests had no water available, and the wrong song was played for the father-daughter dance. These operational missteps were extremely disappointing. However, the most troubling aspect was the unprofessional and at times blatantly rude behavior displayed by Ren toward parents, guests, and even the priest officiating the ceremony. Multiple guests approached us asking why the wedding coordinator was so dismissive and why, as family members scrambled to help guests during a sudden rain, she stood by and watched. Prior to the bride and groom entering the reception, Ren told the groom he should button his jacket so he "didn't look fat." All of the above are just a few examples of the disappointment. For an event as meaningful as a wedding, professionalism, organization, and care matter enormously--and sadly, these were consistently lacking. After our bad experience, I did see another similar review for Ren on this platform.

Savvy Events will make your special occasion go as planned!…read more We decided to hire Savvy Events to be sure that someone could oversee our entire wedding. Our venue already came with a day of coordinator and our caterer had specific instructions for decor. However, we wanted to make sure that all those hours we spent getting everything just perfect for our wedding, actually turned out that way and not misinterpreted by something written down on a sheet of paper. We sat down with the Savvy Events team to review all of our décor before purchasing it all. Lisa and her team suggested some slight alterations to keep the theme consistent. After a couple of small changes we got all of our stuff in and completed all of our projects. We sat down with Savvy Events and all our other vendors for a final coordination meeting to be sure the timelines would work and that all the décor was going to be setup as expected in vast detail. Lisa even had to do some additional follow up with our DJ to make sure that everything went as expected. On the day of, all vendors knew not to bother anyone in the wedding party with any questions. All questions would be asked directly to Lisa and she would make any alterations to décor or timelines as she deemed fit. We could not have been in more capable hands! Our wedding day went fully stress free. Not a question was asked about what goes where or what we wanted to do about this or that. None of our parents had to lift a finger or be bothered with décor questions. Everything got setup correctly and all our guests enjoyed themselves immensely. Any kind of event you have planned is only as good as it is setup and run. You can stress yourself or your family members out with the details or entrust Savvy Events to make sure that all your precious moments actually happen! Events like your wedding only happen once. Do yourself a favor and get the most out of your special day by letting a professional take care of the details and live that day with a smile for the camera!

Super professional and meticulous to detail, I can't say enough about Get Savvy Events.

Meredith from Clearly Classy Events went over and beyond all of my expectations. My daughter lives…read morein California and had to do things by phone. I honestly expected to be working my butt off last Friday night (May 29, 2015), but I didn't have to lift a finger! She let me do a bit a decorating, but only because I begged! When my daughter said she was hiring Meredith, I was concerned that it was an unnecessary expense, however it was the best money spent on the wedding!!! The best part was the final hour of the reception when I just got to sit and watch Meredith load the van! Jessica was also wonderful and helped us so much. It was a beautiful night and I really appreciate how professional they both were! Leave the heavy lifting to these wonderful women!!!!

I generally don't write reviews but for Johnell I think she definitely needs an appreciation!…read more We reached out to Johnell for my 3 year old's birthday party recently. We hardly had two weeks for the event day and Johnell worked day and night to get everything planned and coordinated according to the theme of the party. She provided great suggestions like the claw machine, face painting and a magician. It was tough to get a magician in that short time period but she did her magic to find the best one for the event and it was great! All our 50+ guests who attended the party raved about how well the planning and coordination was done for a 3 year old's birthday. It wouldn't have happened without her! She also helped with my baby shower back in early 2020 when Covid didn't hit us yet. My husband worked with her to throw me a baby shower and it was amazingly done. That baby shower event has made us reach out to her again because we knew she will do an excellent job and can trust her because she puts her heart in every event that she takes up. Thank you so much Johnell for all the efforts and an outstanding work even with such short time that you had.

Def a great little spot for outdoor concerts…read more Not sure why more acts don't come thru here - it's smaller and more manageable than Stubbs and it has very nice bathrooms. We've seen the Strumbellas here twice and truly don't know why more indie acts don't choose this spot over Stubbs. The stage itself is small but the sound system is great and while I don't LIKE it, I definitely understand why they charge for their elevated back bar area (deemed premium seating, at $40 a seat, you get a reserved spot to park it for your event and a great view of the stage). On site there's a hot dog stand and for sure this guy has his supply and demand system down. He smartly uses a fan to waft the mouth-watering aroma of grilled dogs all throughout the venue. Vegetarians need not respond but I would love to find any meat loving person who can go an entire concert here without buying a dog...I'm waiting lol Seriously though, for $10 the dogs are juicy, smothered in good stuff and they absolutely SLAP. Parking sucks but that's anywhere downtown. Street parking if you're lucky, otherwise, they do have an event parking deal with a fairly close parking garage.

Scoot Inn is an Austin staple for live music and other events. I am often impressed with the…read morequality of the sound no matter the genre, it's just grand. They have a couple of bars and a kind of VIP area that costs extra. It's just a simple outdoor music venue that does what it should, provide the best show experience it can (and does) for attendees. My most recent visit was for Greg Casar's campaign kickoff and the folks at Scoot Inn did a stellar job.

She added tons of great ideas to our plan for decorations, and masterfully executed our plan. When we walked into the party, if took my breath away!

Company Owners & CEO's:…read more There's not enough time!......PERIOD! Our responsibilities leave us spread so thin that in order to try and plan a party or EVent of some type for our employees is merely impossible. I can't stress enough how much weight was lifted off my shoulders when I contacted Jessica and requested her services. She literally asked me 6 questions and BOOM!! I mean EVentfullATX was spot on EVerything! Facebook EVent page, evite's, RSVP's, Follow-up's w/ vendors, etc. The honest truth of having someone as pleasant to work with as Jessica and the experience to finally just get back to your team members and not have to worry about the things that drive you insane when planning EVents. No preparations, No confirmations, No follow-ups, No clean-up or payouts, No break-down, etc. Simply show up, enjoy the time you have with dear ones and get back to why it is you do what you do day in and day out with the people you love to work with! That reason alone should be worth getting onboard. I simply can't recommend EVentfull ATX enough! CHEERS!
