We talked for 15 minutes and based on her experience and caring nature decided to meet with her. By the way, the other two never called back. My wife and I felt completely comfortable with Jamie and trusted her with my wife's special day. She made suggestions and didn't pressure us in the least. The big day was two days ago and we couldn't be more happy with the results. Jamie's team, Jackie, Megan and Cynthia, were friendly and efficient. The food was outstanding and several of our friends referred to our party as the event of the year!

The whole experience was wonderful, from start to finish! He is very professional, responsive and a heck of a chef! He truly wants everyone to have a great time and enjoy his culinary creations. We had asparagus wraps, meatballs (which were next level delicious!), jerk chicken (also a fav), and the oriental shrimp (also amazing), the caprese skewers and crabcakes. I'm telling you, everything was delicious and Daniel was personal and professional, and just perfect! Definitely recommend!

We were so excited to get the couch and it was even more amazing in person. The quality was great, it was in pristine condition, and was a really unique choice. Our clients loved the experience.

I will absolutely think of Copper Acorn for another rental in the future. I can't speak highly enough about it. Thank you so much Sarah for making our event so special!!

a day ago I have…read morebeen using Chef Mike's meal delivery service for about 3 weeks, and I get 5-6 dinners a week. I'd give him a rating of 6 out of 5 if I could. His meals are invariably nutritious, delicious , and attractively presented. There is plenty of food for a filling dinner for one. It is like going to a good restaurant each night. All I have to do is go to my refrigerator, pick out what I want and heat it up in the microwave for about 2.5 to 3 minutes right in its own container. There is a menu of 4 different dishes for each night, and the menu changes weekly. He offers touchless delivery at no additional cost right to doorstep each day M-F. I have tried a number of the national meal delivery services like Freshly. Chef Mike beats those by a country mile. Try them for a week. I am confident you'll be hooked.

I'd recommend Chef Mike for any function or event.

Hiring Brittany as our wedding planner was hands down the best decision we made during the planning…read moreprocess. From the very beginning, she was professional, organized, and incredibly thoughtful. She quickly understood our vision and priorities, and then went above and beyond to make sure every detail came together seamlessly. What really stood out was her ability to manage all of the moving parts with such calm confidence. She kept us on track with timelines, vendor communication, and budgeting, and on the wedding day itself, she was a true lifesaver--handling logistics behind the scenes so we could actually relax and enjoy the celebration. Brittany has a great balance of creativity and practicality. She had so many clever ideas that elevated the day, but she also knew how to keep us grounded when decisions felt overwhelming. Her vendor recommendations were fantastic, and her relationships in the industry made everything run smoother. Our guests kept commenting on how flawless the day felt, and that's 100% thanks to Brittany and her team. If you're looking for a planner who is detail-oriented, responsive, and genuinely cares about making your day perfect, Brittany is the one.
