We could not have done this spectacular birthday party for our daughter without Rachael! We had a…read morefabulous at 14 birthday party for our daughter Emma at the Goggleworks in Reading. Our daughter wanted to have a "teen nightclub" themed dance party for her 14th birthday! At that age it's really challenging to find a venue for a great party that is safe and supervised, but also, crazy fun! Rachael helped us put together a party that was the "talk of the school" event! Everyone was buzzing about this party! Rachael, with the help of some other fantastic companies, like LEO party rentals, and BELLY caterers put together a very reasonably priced and very trendy dance party for Emma and her friends. It was so easy to plan, and even easier to sit back and enjoy the kids having a fantastic time! We couldn't have planned this terrific event without her! Rachael helped us coordinate with everyone. She sat down with me to brainstorm many times before the party, and took care of everything. The tiniest of details were covered! All of the event was kept within a very reasonable budget! We would also like to send a thank you out to the Goggleworks for their terrific, and very trendy "loft" like room, for the party location. The dj " DJ JG" John Gosselin was also a fantastic addition to the party! He knew exactly what music the kids wanted to hear. Everyone danced the entire night! Thank you Rachael for making this night so memorable for Emma, and us too! If your thinking of planning a party for your teenage daughter you should contact Rachael! She will really impress you!

Great to work with!…read more I can't say enough about Shumaker. They did the lighting for our daughter's wedding and it involved last minute changes due to the weather forecast. I called them on Thursday (wedding was Saturday) and they were so obliging, even though they had other weddings that day, too. The day of set up, they called me from the site because they saw an issue with the tents that were being set up (a different company). They discussed their concerns with the tent people and together they worked it out perfectly. This was above and beyond Shumaker's call of duty. It rained on the big day but all was well because of Shumaker! Great people to work with!

We recently had the pleasure and privilege of working with Dustin Imhoff of Shumaker & Associates…read moreEvent Planning for our daughter's wedding at the Casa di Fiori of the Inn at Leola Village on 6/6/15. From inception to execution, Dustin was the consummate professional, working diligently to ensure that our daughter's dreams of an "in-door garden wedding" came to fruition. Seeking input from us, our wedding planner, Briana Dixon of Nouvelle Weddings, Kaci Willwerth, the wedding coordinator at the Inn at Leola Village, and Tracie Boyer, the Inn at Leola Village's floral designer, he was able to transform our ideas into reality using his amazing design talents. Beginning early in the morning of the wedding day, he and his team brought trees, bushes, plants, flowers, soil, mulch, sod, stone pavers, bricks, fountains and landscape lighting inside the Casa di Fiori, transforming it into a truly magical venue that really had to be seen to be believed. The result exceeded even our highest expectations and there honestly was not a single thing that could have been improved upon. Every guest commented on the amazing "fairy tale garden" atmosphere of the venue. Needless to say, we were delighted with all aspects of our interactions with Dustin and his team and we are confident in stating with certainty that if you are in need of a motivated, talented, creative and quality-driven event planning team, you need look no further than Shumaker & Associates! - Ann & Bill Unwin, York,PA

Scott connected with us quickly and efficiently, and answered all of our questions in a timely fashion. His initial meeting with us was very thorough so we got to really share with him our vision.

On the day of the wedding, Scott performed our wedding exactly how we pictured it - with warmth and and respect for the day, but without it being too serious. It was perfect.

Where do I begin. From the very first email and phone call with Louise I knew that I had called…read morethe right folks and that we were on good hands. Louise was so knowledgeable about their product and after hearing about my event she was able to recommend the perfect tent and layout for the size we needed. Louise was ALWAYS available by phone or email to help when I was making changes or asking questions. They also supplied us with the linens and they were beautiful and turned out exactly as I had hoped. We had a little hiccup on set up day, which was totally my fault yet the team came back out the next day and fixed is for us. As a result we had a beautiful looking tent. I HIGHLY recommend these folks for your tent needs.

I could even forgive the out dated style and yellow wall paints if it wasn't for one thing. Omg. Omg. The music, the music. For some reason we could hear loud music in our bedroom/hotel room the whole time but from around 12 am - 8 am. We heard it when we checked in and the next morning, while my husband was still asleep. When I say loud, I mean we could understand every word in every song that played. I am assuming it was the music from the restaurant, but after paying over $270 per night it is something I would not expect to happened.

100% would not recommend based on our family's experience. My sister was planning her wedding while…read morepregnant and was under a lot of stress throughout the process. She repeatedly expressed feeling like she was handling much of the planning responsibilities herself despite hiring a wedding planner. There were also questions directed to my sister regarding responsibilities such as steaming tablecloths, cleanup, and logistics for ice/cooler storage, which added confusion and additional stress because these were tasks she believed would be handled as part of the planning/coordinating services. Payment had been made in full by the end of April, and approximately 40 days before the wedding, services were withdrawn after a family member contacted her to ask for updates on the planning progress. Since then, communication regarding refunds and coordination during the transition to finding a replacement planner has been limited, which has made an already difficult situation more stressful. Overall, this experience did not meet expectations, especially given the timing so close to the wedding. I tried posting this on her facebook to warn others and in return i was blocked.
