I am so glad I did. The cheese puffs are good and very rich. A layer of crème cheese w pesto sandwiched between like a Parmesan puff pastry. The beef Wellington were small round balls filled with what my husband described as pot roast. I thought it would be a small piece of tenderloin with the duxelles wrapped in puff pastry. The meat was a shaved beef. At $36 a dozen it definitely not worth the money to serve at a party. All in all, I would not buy again. They won't make it to my holiday party! I am sure their catering is wonderful but the individual frozen apps are not worth the drive!

He is one less thing at your party you need to worry about because he is a sure thing! Truly, he is a whole family favorite!!

What a fun performer. I came across him at the Park Ridge Kiwanis annual pancake breakfast, where…read morehe was doing some entertaining mostly for the kids but definitely for the adults as well. It's through him that I heard of the Central Street Busker Festival that took place the next day and his line was loooong! Most recently, we went to his show last week that the Mt. Prospect Public Library held for spring break. That was very very well attended, with a long line of folks waiting to get in (and that's with all of us registered to attend!), but the show was a lot of fun. He did a little magic, a little comedy, and some fun balloon tricks. This guy has been doing this all his adult life--unless that's also a joke and part of his act--but regardless, he's great at his job. I'm looking forward to seeing him again and my little one having the chance to pick her balloon creation on her own.

The space itself is relaxing and would be a great spot to hang out, but the wine didn't quite match the atmosphere. The options I tried were fine, just not memorable for the price point. The food choices were also pretty limited, and since you can't bring your own snacks, it felt a little restricting. Nothing was terrible, but nothing really stood out either. It's a nice place to sit and enjoy the view for a bit, though I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to come back.

Jenny is more much than a coordinator. My mom had a small stroke about 6 weeks before our wedding…read more Jenny went from day-of-coordinator to a life raft. I will never forget, after sending her the email explaining my mom's situation, Jenny calling me almost immediately - literally just offering her ear. After letting me express all my fears, tears, and anxieties - she got to work. She encouraged me to take a beat to feel all the feelings, and then insisted we have another call a day or two later so I could "brain dump" everything wedding on her. Jenny was able to take that unorganized, jumbled mess of a phone call and spit out a highly detailed, actionable, and prioritised to-do list that broke down not only what I had to do, my husband had to do, but she took on things that MY MOM was supposed to do. I cannot tell you how much this was appreciated - it makes me teary eyed just thinking about her kindness and how she went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was a spot of brightness and hope amongst the dark weeks leading up to it. Sure enough, my mom recovered beautifully - was not only AT the wedding, but dancing a speech-giving with the best of them. Thank you, Jenny, for believing that would be so - getting us to the finish line and just overall being a wonderful human.

Jenny from Blue Moon Events was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding…read more Although we hired her for a day-of coordination package, the support she gave us in the months leading up to the big day was absolutely invaluable. Her regular check-ins kept us on track, she helped us stay organized, and she personally recommended nearly all of our amazing vendors. She also constantly made sure we were doing okay and offered help wherever she could. She truly went above and beyond. When the wedding day arrived, Jenny and her husband Jeff took over and everything went off without a hitch. We didn't have to stress about a single thing, which meant the world to my wife and me. We were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment thanks to them. I would recommend her to absolutely everyone. She is a total pro and an absolute joy to work with. 1000% worth it

We had a large wedding party (21 people) and an even larger wedding (260) and everything went so smooth. If there was a problem at the wedding I certainly was not aware unless it was a question Lena needed our opinion on.

I cannot say enough good things but I will say without Lena I would have been stressed the day of the wedding instead of enjoying every second of the day. Best decision ever using LMV Consulting.

I cannot say enough on how Lenamarie made my day more than just a fairy tale wedding. When planning…read moremy wedding it was so stressful I didn't even know how to even start but she held my hand the whole way through including months after the wedding to ensure I was completely satisfied. She not only listens she is sincere when you request anything to make sure you feel comfortable and secure that everything will go absolutely perfect. We had our wedding in the traditional Greek church and she even knew what was needed from everyone, for example.. She went to the church days before to check lighting, environment, set up and even spoke and coordinated with church what is expected. She noticed the lighting in the church is a lot dimmer than most churches and she made sure to speak with the videographer and photographer to ensure they understood what setting they would be dealing with. That is the definition of going out of the way for her bride. Another amazing thing she suggested after going to the church was for me and my husband to do a "look before" we walk down, she suggested this because in the Greek tradition we do not speak or do vows so she thought it was a good idea to take pictures of us before church so we can talk, take any pictures we want and get the anxiety out. This made the time of actual church such a stressful and easy going processes. For our reception I demanded to have it in my parents back yard and she was all for it educating us on what backyard wedding entails and I had no idea it is a lot more work but she did everything to make it perfect. I can't thank her enough for making. a day I remember for the rest of my life. I promise you hiring Lenamarie will be the best thing you ever do for yourself and your wedding. Thank you so much Lenamarie!!!
