They are overpriced and force you to hire a bartender to serve drinks (beer and wine) you personally provide. They lie to their customers and tell them that "in the state of florida you need to have a licensed bartender to serve drinks." That is a LIE, in the state of Florida you do not need a license or permit to serve beer a wine... actually a bartender doesn't even need to have a license to serve liquor in Florida. They are lying to their customers. We were hosting a memorial.. not a wedding.. this wasn't a party and our experience with Celebrations made everything more stressful than it already was..... AND they serve soggy crostini.... They made us buy food too! Many of the people who helped with the memorial have worked for catering companies... The crostini was dated for the day before.. Our "bartender" said they were made in the morning... Another lie. What a joke of a company.

Besides the amazing taste and presentation of the meals, the customer service and attention to details is astounding. Both years, we have run out of plates or cups or whatever it may be. Terra remains calms, makes you aware and works to find a solution. I never see a bead of sweat! I'm a crazy planner and I like to come up with my own menu and man, Terra brings it ALL to life without a 2nd thought. She is thorough, focused and so real, I appreciate it so much. This will be one of the best teams you'll ever get to work with so book Dos Mamas to be WOWed!

Dos Mamas is a small, homey, and pretty busy cafeteria / restaurant. They have a pretty decent…read moreassortment of burgers, sandwiches, grilled items, bottled and draft beers and Cuban sandwich... Yes, they have a good Cuban sandwich. I visited Dos Mamas during lunch and they were slammed. Even though the place was packed, and the TV was on, it wasn't too loud. The food was fresh, full of flavor, and obviously prepared when we order it. The fries are really great! Both my friend and I ordered the Cuban sandwich, so I cannot comment on any other item..... Their Cuban sandwich was made pretty damn close to the real thing. It had the right bread, ham, sliced pork, pickles, spicy mustard, Swiss cheese, and then pressed with butter on the outside (the butter was applied before being pressed, which gives it that sweet and slightly overcooked taste... Hell yeah!) The only other place where a semi-decent Cuban sandwich could be purchased in Gainesville was Hogan's Heros, but they have started to lax their standards. I give Dos Mamas 3.5 Stars. Review will be updated after my next visits.... there will definitely be other visits! Oh, almost forgot, Parking is a pain in the _ss... Get there early and even then you will have to park across the streets in a dusty lot (watch out for trucks and industrial machinery... try not to get run over).

Ashley was wonderful throughout the entire process, she was quick to answer messages and questions, and was a joy to meet in person for the board drop-off. She created such a beautiful plate for us to enjoy, and helped us create a fun Valentine's day memory for our family. I highly recommend her for events, parties, or just to make the everyday feel special. :) We also hired her recently to create a birthday board for our daughter's birthday, it turns out beautiful and was so delicious!

Many attendees went out of their way to note that it was among the best meals they've ever had at a wedding. It's also worth noting that the morning breakfasts at the Inn are wonderful and everyone is so nice and thoughtful. When I saw they were now doing to-go meals, we made plans to visit Gainesville to pick up some shrimp and grits, mac and cheese casserole, garlic parmesan mashed potatoes, and bread. The entire meal was spectacular and the mac and cheese is some of the best we've ever had. I can't recommend them highly enough.

We hired this business to do the uplighting for my wedding reception. Twinkle Nights originally…read morequoted about $15,000.00. After one of my vendors who coordinated this aspect of the reception called this price out as ridiculous, Twinkle Nights immediately reduced the quote by about $10,000.00. Subsequently, I reduced the quantity of lights needed by 25%, and Twinkle Nights reduced the quote by a nearly proportional amount, which meant, in the end, we paid about $4,500.00. The only way to square the initial $10,000.00 reduction is that Twinkle Nights was trying to scam us, which is consistent with the rest of our experience with them. Without our knowledge, Twinkle Nights, subbed out our event to another company. The employees of that company showed up on wedding day with cheap uplights. I have been told by a vendor who works in event lighting that these lights could have been purchased--not rented--for a few hundred dollars total. While the event was beautiful, the lighting was absolutely not what we paid for and did not achieve the effect we contracted for. The colors were off and many of the cheap lights broke before the event even started. Worse still, a representative of Twinkle Nights was at my venue during setup. When this mistake/breach/issue was noticed by other members of our vendor team, the Twinkle Nights representative apparently said that she hoped I wouldn't notice. Two days after the event, another vendor told me about all of this; at that point, I still hadn't heard a word from Twinkle Nights. In fact, the only time the company apologized to me was as a Google review reply. The only positive thing I have to say for this company is that when confronted and informed that I was very willing to sue, they eventually issued a refund.
