Jessika and 36th Street were the absolute best. Planning a wedding alone was not something we…read morewanted to do, so we made the decision to hire a wedding planner, and we made the right choice. After we had everything planned and ready to go, Covid threw a wrench in our plans. Jessika jumped in and made it stress free for us, making sure everything was moved to a new date and handled the details with the vendors. The day of went fantastic as well. Jessika and team were so involved in everything and made sure that we could focus on each other and not on everything going on around us. I CAN NOT recommend her enough.

I am genuinely disappointed to write this review and cannot recommend Ren Newey or 36th Street…read moreEvents. Our kids hired this planner, and from the very beginning there were warning signs-but the scope of the issues that unfolded went far beyond anything we could have anticipated. From not remembering meeting the groom after a one-hour introductory call, to ongoing disorganization, to inconsistent and frequently changing pricing, the experience was stressful throughout. We were quoted inflated costs for items such as generators-significantly higher than what we were able to negotiate ourselves-and were directed to vendors whose pricing was nearly ten times higher than identical products available on Etsy. Despite being repeatedly reassured that all details were handled, several critical failures occurred on the wedding day. The string quartet never arrived because 36th Street Events sent their information to an outdated email address. Instead of notifying the bride, groom, or any parents about the mistake, recorded music was played without explanation. Requested site visits never happened, staffing was not confirmed, and as a result dinner was delayed by 60-90 minutes, guests had no water available, and the wrong song was played for the father-daughter dance. These operational missteps were extremely disappointing. However, the most troubling aspect was the unprofessional and at times blatantly rude behavior displayed by Ren toward parents, guests, and even the priest officiating the ceremony. Multiple guests approached us asking why the wedding coordinator was so dismissive and why, as family members scrambled to help guests during a sudden rain, she stood by and watched. Prior to the bride and groom entering the reception, Ren told the groom he should button his jacket so he "didn't look fat." All of the above are just a few examples of the disappointment. For an event as meaningful as a wedding, professionalism, organization, and care matter enormously--and sadly, these were consistently lacking. After our bad experience, I did see another similar review for Ren on this platform.

Event Envy, specifically Traci, was wonderful to work with in planning and executing my wedding…read more My husband and I had monthly calls with Traci where she not only helped us stay on track, but acted as a calming sense of reason. :) Traci really helped me narrow down my wedding ideas and coordinated the whole wedding day/reception. Because of the monthly calls and correspondence prior to the wedding, I completely trusted Traci to run with the wedding day festivities. She executed the plan flawlessly. Hands down, I would work with Traci again.

The ladies at Event Envy were the icing on top of my wedding cake, or cupcake in this instance. My…read moregroom described Traci as our guiding light during the planning stages (Yes, he actually said that). Traci helped us plan a wedding in Phoenix, while she was in Austin and I was on the other side of the U.S. The day of service was extraordinary. I didn't worry about a single thing. Traci and her assistant, Virginia, were professional, supportive, and kicked ass when necessary. The whole day was perfect, because they were there. Even if you have to hire a plane to get Traci to your event, do it! Thank you for making my wedding an absolute dream come true!

Def a great little spot for outdoor concerts…read more Not sure why more acts don't come thru here - it's smaller and more manageable than Stubbs and it has very nice bathrooms. We've seen the Strumbellas here twice and truly don't know why more indie acts don't choose this spot over Stubbs. The stage itself is small but the sound system is great and while I don't LIKE it, I definitely understand why they charge for their elevated back bar area (deemed premium seating, at $40 a seat, you get a reserved spot to park it for your event and a great view of the stage). On site there's a hot dog stand and for sure this guy has his supply and demand system down. He smartly uses a fan to waft the mouth-watering aroma of grilled dogs all throughout the venue. Vegetarians need not respond but I would love to find any meat loving person who can go an entire concert here without buying a dog...I'm waiting lol Seriously though, for $10 the dogs are juicy, smothered in good stuff and they absolutely SLAP. Parking sucks but that's anywhere downtown. Street parking if you're lucky, otherwise, they do have an event parking deal with a fairly close parking garage.

We quickly went through security and got our tickets scanned. You can see from pretty much everywhere and the sound was good! We got there right before she started so we just found our spot in the crowd and stayed there the whole time. I will go back! It smelled like popcorn the whole time so I assume they have concessions.

I honestly expected to be working my butt off last Friday night (May 29, 2015), but I didn't have to lift a finger! She let me do a bit a decorating, but only because I begged! When my daughter said she was hiring Meredith, I was concerned that it was an unnecessary expense, however it was the best money spent on the wedding!!! The best part was the final hour of the reception when I just got to sit and watch Meredith load the van! Jessica was also wonderful and helped us so much. It was a beautiful night and I really appreciate how professional they both were! Leave the heavy lifting to these wonderful women!!!!

I generally don't write reviews but for Johnell I think she definitely needs an appreciation!…read more We reached out to Johnell for my 3 year old's birthday party recently. We hardly had two weeks for the event day and Johnell worked day and night to get everything planned and coordinated according to the theme of the party. She provided great suggestions like the claw machine, face painting and a magician. It was tough to get a magician in that short time period but she did her magic to find the best one for the event and it was great! All our 50+ guests who attended the party raved about how well the planning and coordination was done for a 3 year old's birthday. It wouldn't have happened without her! She also helped with my baby shower back in early 2020 when Covid didn't hit us yet. My husband worked with her to throw me a baby shower and it was amazingly done. That baby shower event has made us reach out to her again because we knew she will do an excellent job and can trust her because she puts her heart in every event that she takes up. Thank you so much Johnell for all the efforts and an outstanding work even with such short time that you had.

But after reading some suggestions that if you don't get a coordinator at least designate a family person, friend, relative, dog to be the wedding manager.... I had second thoughts. Thankfully, that's where Mandy came in. Modern Whimsy is amazing. There are not words sufficient enough to describe how incredible Mandy and her team were. From the very beginning Mandy was attentive and helpful far beyond what I expected from a coordinator, let alone one that we were getting at a discount for a prize we won and for just day of coordination. She went FAR above and beyond what I think any one person would do and she was instantly a friend in the end. The details she stayed on top of were just incredible and perfect. Letting go of the reins for this OCD person was difficult, but I couldn't have asked for someone better to trust with my vision and allow to orchestrate the wedding of my dreams. If you're getting married and don't want to have to worry, stress, or cry on your wedding day, hire Modern Whimsy. The best investment we've ever made was for that peace of mind on our wedding day. Honestly.

We just finished having our wedding in Austin and worked closely with Mandy on day of wedding…read morecoordination. From the first moment we got on the phone, we knew she would be great. First off, Mandy's experience means she thinks of all the small details you might forget. In the weeks leading up to our event, she came to us with small questions that had a big impact. She also did all the background work to organize details like flower delivery, scheduling conflicts and floor plans for the caterer. She was also able to help with a few etiquette questions that we had - always a plus. For the rehearsal, that attention to detail had her even pointing out small details like moving a microphone so people could see us kiss. She came to the hotel to drop off and pick things up in advance. She made herself available during the process via email, phone and text - all the ways we like to communicate! During the entire process Mandy was upbeat, helpful and made us feel like our event was as special to her as it was to us. Fees were also right in line with what I expected - excellent value for money. Now, we just need to find another event that she can help us to plan! Would love to work with her again.

Kandi with KR Creations created my invitations and programs for my recent wedding. My family and…read morefriends are still talking about both my invitations and programs! I later hired her as my coordinator after firing the one that I had up until 3 months before my wedding date. Kandi not only created very lovely stationary for my wedding but she came on board as the coordinator full speed ahead. My compliments on Kandi are very high because she works very well under pressure and you can count on her to get the job done! She made sure everything that I had envisioned happened with the exception of a few things but none of my guest knew what was missing because when she was given "lemons she made lemonade"! There's no such thing as a perfect wedding but I believe that your day will be close to it as possible when you're dealing KR Creations! When you think or hear event planner or coordination you usually think expensive but believe me it's well worth it! Call KR Creations and Kandi will give you a complimentary consultation so you're well aware upfront what her fees are. KR Creations services are affordable, with the work that was done with my event my husband and I feel that she may not have been paid enough for all of her hard work that she did for our wedding!

Our responsibilities leave us spread so thin that in order to try and plan a party or EVent of some type for our employees is merely impossible.

I mean EVentfullATX was spot on EVerything! Facebook EVent page, evite's, RSVP's, Follow-up's w/ vendors, etc. The honest truth of having someone as pleasant to work with as Jessica and the experience to finally just get back to your team members and not have to worry about the things that drive you insane when planning EVents. No preparations, No confirmations, No follow-ups, No clean-up or payouts, No break-down, etc. Simply show up, enjoy the time you have with dear ones and get back to why it is you do what you do day in and day out with the people you love to work with! That reason alone should be worth getting onboard. I simply can't recommend EVentfull ATX enough! CHEERS!
