I couldn't believe all the amazing details that went into the wedding. They not only handled each inch of everything handed to them with perfection but they also referred us to great vendors as well. We used Mobile Beauty Team for hair and makeup AMAZING! Floral sunshine for flowers and some others but I forget the names. Either way we were very happy and you will be too! They were quick with responding to emails and even quicker on the day of with everything. Thanks so much!

So many options to choose from, but should've got the lemon sorbet on a hot day, but this…read morepeppermint was pretty delicious as I crave peppermint if it's made right, and this was deliciously prepared. Happy with my choice, but getting the lemon next time. The options are all tasty and well made. I love the soft fluffy texture of the peppermint too. I'll definitely come here next time to try that lemon and some other samples and two scoops is huge and a cup! I guess I didn't need that much but I ate it.

We finished having dinner in the area and walked around to check out some of the shops. I was…read morelooking for a dessert spot nearby, and it just so happened that Dairy Hill Cream was right in front of us while we were at a crosswalk. It was around 6pm when we stopped by. It was a chilly evening, but that didn't stop me from wanting ice cream. I also saw that they offered a warm food option of a fresh donut ice cream sandwich. If I was more hungry, I wouldn't hesitate to get that. There was one friendly server at the time, who helped me sample a few flavors including cranberry cheesecake, lemon bar, and vegan salted caramel. Enjoyed what I tried and especially loved the creaminess of the ice cream. It was a toss up between cranberry cheesecake, which had these nice walnut pieces, and lemon bar with its cookie dough bits. The junior cup came with one flavor but it was an extra dollar for the second flavor. Ended up getting both, and it was so worth the extra $1.

I wish there were two rows so I could give Whitney 10 stars! She is absolutely fantastic. Whitney…read moreworked with my daughter, my wife, and I in planning our daughter's wedding for over a year. She was with us every step of the way.....bringing creative ideas, recommending vendors who could best provide what my daughter wanted, managing the budget and plan to ensure we were making the best decisions. Most importantly, the wedding was spectacular! Whitney took care of everything and ensured it exceeded all expectations....DJ, catering, floral, lighting, linens, ceremony.....all were terrific. My daughter was over the moon and many guests talked about it being the best they had ever attended. Much of that credit goes to Whitney.....and she is a joy to work with. If you need a wedding planner, I can't imagine one who would be better.

A second-person review, but valid, I believe. My nephew and his fiance just (two days, as of this…read morewriting) finished their wedding event. Having engaged Whitney from overseas, and having the added logistical complication of attempting to plan and coordinate the component wedding events via email, it's insufficient to say that Whitney managed to produce what turned out to be the perfect wedding. From planning through execution, the event was executed beautifully. Communication was excellent, any "hitches" were dealt with swiftly and with zero issues. All involved parties - and there were a LOT of us - were calmly managed by Whitney and because of that, we knew our roles to a "T". I don't know what her services cost but whatever they run, I've got to believe that they're worth it. For an event of this importance in your life, you can't go wrong working with Whitney.

He listened to what we wanted and offered suggestions for how to improve the flow and make things run smoothly without ever being overbearing. Their website contains planning forms and a huge music library that you can use to flag songs you do and don't want to hear at the wedding, and give any feedback you want. The mix of music at our wedding was just what we'd wanted and Stephen did a great job MCing and helping direct the evening along. We were on a budget (who isn't?) and found Media Jockeys to be very reasonable and a good value for our money.

I can't put into words how grateful I am that Katie Wilgus was our wedding planner for our wedding…read morelast month. After our first coffee meeting, I knew she is IT. She is super dialed into the wedding industry and was able to easily rattle off recommendations for vendors that matched our style, wants and needs. I also found her to be very thoughtful, strategic, smart, and extremely calm, not to mention super experienced. And the proof is in the pudding -- if you look at photos of her events, they are so incredibly beautiful, put-together and stylish. We were originally supposed to be married in May 2020, and having to put off our marriage several times due to the pandemic was a huge disappointment. But Katie stuck by us through two rounds of rescheduling and helped us through it ALL. She understands events and the industry so well that even though the pandemic was uncharted territory for all of us, her knowledge and gut instincts saved us many times. She was always quick to answer emails and phone calls, and there was never a loose end on her watch -- she is so organized and focused. And we could always count on her to be super honest and transparent with her advice; if spending money on something added a lot of value or made a lot of sense, she would tell us, but she would also let us know where we could easily save money. I was happy with every one of her recommendations -- vendors, decor, paper goods, everything! I will also never forget the many examples of kindness and empathy that Katie showed us, including literally HOLDING a plate of cheese and fruit for me to eat from between photos on my wedding day! Her compassion and positive energy are honestly humbling. When we were planning our event with all these masking and safety restrictions, I was worried that after all this work and all these postponements, the resulting event was going to feel like a compromise. But our day was honestly perfect and stunningly beautiful, and a lot of the credit for that goes to Katie. I am forever grateful and would heartily recommend her to anyone planning an event.

The moment we met with Katie we knew she would be perfect for us. At the time of our meeting with Gather Event my anxiety was high. I felt like I had nothing under control and wasn't sure how I was going to handle everything, but by the end of the meeting I felt much calmer and confident that Katie would make our day run perfectly. Through the entire process she was cool, calm, and collected. Her team made sure every detail was covered, thought about, and managed. They helped create our wedding timeline and made sure all vendors were aware of timing and facilitated those relationships from start to finish. I didn't have to think about much during the last couple of weeks before the wedding and what a gift that was; to be relaxed and confident before the big day! I am so thankful we decided to have Gather Event Planning be a part of our day. I received so many compliments on how smooth everything ran, and how perfectly calm the wedding atmosphere seemed. That was all thanks to Katie and her team. I couldn't have asked for a better day. Do yourself a favor, and hire a day-of-coordinator and make sure it's Gather Event Planning!

She managed all the day of coordination and any additional (and critical) tasks that we needed insight, direction, or simply the facilitation of, in advance of the event as needed. She is very smart, comes with a lot of experience and understanding of what it takes to get complex events put together and pulled off in a way that makes guests feel welcome, at ease, and ready to party...and give, as was the case for our fundraising event! Can't recommend her enough.
