I don't think they allow access to the stove top burners, but the ovens and everything else if fair game. There was also free parking at the hall, and if there was no more space in the lot, there was street parking. The customer service was also great. I was able to call and ask all the questions I needed to before booking. I spoke with Frank to reserve the space. He was courteous, effiicient and helpful. All the other guys there helped to show us around the space and answer any additional questions that we had, and made sure we had a primary facility contact the day of the event. There are only a couple of things that I wish were different: I wish we had more time to set up ahead of the party. We were only allotted an hour. You could request an additional hour of setup for a fee. I can't remember how much. I felt as though we had to scramble during that hour to get everything set up, but once we did, everything looked great. It would also have been great if the sound system was up to date. I wanted to play music from the Spotify playlist that I put together for the day, but the equipment was outdated, and even if there was a way to set it up, none of us (staff included) knew how. Other than that, everything was great, and I will definitely be back for future functions.

I…read morefigured I had plenty of ideas, a good sense of design, and thought I could manage my time well enough to get things done when things needed to be done. Looking back now, I can't imagine this past year without Alexis and her team at the Little Things. Alexis is cool, calm, and collected. She has an incredible eye and seemingly limitless patience. She gave me the space to design specific elements of our wedding while providing her expertise at every turn. Her high standards have helped her build a network of vendors who truly bring their A-game. My fiancé and I definitely put The Little Things through the ringer with our out-of-the-box interactive displays and AV set up. Alexis took it all in stride, remaining positive, managing our expectations, and meeting every challenge presented and exceeding expectations throughout. If you view wedding planners as a "nice to have," and not a "necessity," I would change your thinking. There are SO many things that can come up, and they would have easily derailed us many times in our planning if it were not for Alexis who acts as part wedding planner, part therapist throughout the process! ha! When you look back at your wedding, if you're like us, you will constantly be bringing up amazing memories, and you will find yourself saying "Imagine we didn't have Alexis."

If you're beginning to plan your wedding and you're looking to be creatively engaged but not…read moreoverwhelmed by the process, it's time you meet with TLT. If you value design and love beautiful detail but don't have the time to chase every email or treat your wedding like a second job, it's time you meet with TLT. If you have a bunch of ideas in your mind of who you and your partner are, and how you want to present yourselves as a couple, and want a planner who can understand you better than you understand yourself, it's time you meet with TLT. If you want to enjoy the process of planning your wedding as much as your wedding itself, run, don't walk, to TLT. Alexis & Kayla were by far the most important and most valuable decision we made for our wedding. After following TLT on IG for some time, I knew I liked their high-end, laidback vibe, and from our first conversation we were bowled over by how those traits translated to the people behind the scenes. From early days with thoughtful questionnaires into every aspect of our identity, Alexis and Kayla began the journey of getting to know us better than we knew ourselves, and helped us establish a mood, a design aesthetic, and a way of working together that made the year of planning our wedding a true joy. What you can expect from working with TLT: monthly meetings where you will laugh until you cry, a meticulously organized online checklist of to-dos with assigned owners and gentle and timely reminders, to be presented with teams of vendors who match your vibe and price point (you can always suggest your own vendors and TLT will vet them too), never having to send a single email to a vendor (!!!!), a sense of comfort knowing that everything is IS THE BAG, and in the critical days leading up to the big day and including the big day itself - being able to be present and enjoy this once in a lifetime experience. Alexis and Kayla helped us author our first big creative project together as a couple and will be lifelong friends. They assembled a squad of the COOLEST, most hardworking vendors we could imagine, and we will be forever grateful. If you are on the fence about working with a planner, DO NOT HESITATE to take the leap with TLT. They are worth their weight in solid gold.

I was referred to Kyle through a former co-worker who is also in the event planning world. I was originally looking for help navigating some minor things with my baby shower. After my Mom and Mother in Law heard about Kyle's work (and saw some pics), they hired her to take on the full event. Kyle brought our combined vision to life, my "baby shower at a brewery but make it spacious, accommodating, and cute - oh and I want a balloon arch" idea turned into this beautiful event in the pictures. Kyle worked hand in hand with my Mom on everything. Considering none of my family is local, this was such a huge help to have someone who knew exactly which vendors to use. The cupcakes! The cookies! And oh my god the food! That was all Kyle. Every idea I had she ran with. And concern I had, she handled. Oh and on the day of the party, she coordinated everything, also stepped in to make sure I had great pictures and was our impromptu paparazzi. Thanks to Kyle, we had the baby shower that people are still talking about. Can't wait to have another event where we can have Kyle work her magic.

From the beginning Darlyn was understanding and incredibly helpful. She was able to make all the small details outdoors chairs, linen, napkins including a backdrop that I literally asked for a week prior. She went above and beyond to make it all happen. On my wedding day I had a rough start the weather was completely not in our favor to the point we were on the verge of not being able to make it. Darlyn waited to see what could be done with my outdoors ceremony. Weather turned around somehow! And everything came through one thing that stood out to me is how personal Darlyn took all this. Her sister and mother said at the very end when they were picking up the items how beautiful I looked which was so sweet but how Darlyn cried and prayed for the weather to turn around and that filled my heart because i definitely needed that. So to end this I want to thank Darlyn and her team for making this day Run so smooth. I will forever remember this. Thankyou Odelee D.
