Worst experience ever. You get what you pay for with this so called 'planner.' The owner of the company is incredibly unprofessional and has 'poor' judgement on the vendors she 'likes' to work with and pushes all of her brides to use. On our wedding day the planner dropped off the floral as she was also our florist, (do not use Oakes Fields Floral) and the flowers were the WRONG color. I asked for lemon yellow roses as my accent color for my bridal bouquets/boutioneers- she delivered PEACH roses. Her excuse- the extreme temperature drop. My wedding was in June in the mountains and it was 70 degrees when the flowers were delivered. I should also mention she had the flowers several days before the wedding and did nothing to rectify the situation. All vendors were 'supposedly' contacted by the planner days/week before the wedding to ensure they all knew what to do throughout the day/night. EVERY single vendor we had- was calling myself, my husband and father!!! My dad was getting calls from our shuttle driver minutes before he walked me down the isle. The Lighting and Design company (suggested to us by the planner) was also a bust. We paid to have the property up lit up to include the trees and barns outside of our tent (25 lights exactly)...Is that what happened- NO. The Lighting and Design team was calling me AS I was getting my hair and make-up done asking what color lighting I wanted-- this was ALL information the planner said she confirmed with the vendors. In total there were (6) lights placed in the tent, and NONE outside. Please note it was pitch black in the mountains and my guests couldn't even see where they were going to get to the restrooms/shuttle lines. Furthermore- the wrong table linens were delivered the day before the wedding- when I brought this up to my planner, her response was: I think it's a bit unfair to expect me to remember what linens you picked out a few months back." What??? Isn't that what I was paying for!? Catering- the food was great, but the vendor refused to remove the trash from the wedding site (they didn't have any room for it)--what??? So, my husband and I were at the reception site the next day picking up all of our guests/catering trash. Was this discussed by the planner and myself- no. I received a text the day before our wedding notifying me of the trash debacle. I purchased the Glass Slipper package totaling $2,200.00 and 95% of what was to be included, was not. The Owner is claiming to have given me a discount..not sure where the discount was added- but she sure took everything we paid her. The attire of the owner/planner was utterly embarrassing, and it shows in my professional pictures. She was standing in the most obvious places with her 'mens' hoodie and swimsuit cover-up. I thought for sure after she delivered the flowers and set-up the reception she would have changed into a professional outfit. Didn't happen. I should also note, my photographer will no longer do business with any brides working with Stilletto- this is due to how much Photoshopping/cropping needs to be done after. She left the reception briefly crying and told my mother that she felt horrible about letting me down. She sure did, and did not rectify any of her wrong doings. I should have known by the lack of reviews and dates of reviews she is not all she 'sells' herself to be. I would strongly encourage you to forgo Stiletto Events services- you will be promised everything up front, but once you sign the contract you are SCREWED. read more
