My husband and I used Soiree for both our April 2014 wedding and for my December 2013 bridal…read moreshower. Before I get into a detailed review, let me just highly recommend Soiree upfront with 5 stars! My husband and I live on the East Coast, but were getting married in Spokane. When we were looking for wedding coordinators, we had reached out to 4 in the Spokane area. Within 24 hours, Jessica had responded and given me price quotes. Two other companies I never heard from, and one got back to me a week later. Since we lived so far away, we knew communication by email was key, and Jessica was on top of it. Jessica was always quick with email turnaround times, and she was always available for a phone call or meeting when we were in town. She gave us a very reasonable price quote, so we hired her for point of contact and day of coordinating services. Jessica was so organized, calm, and friendly throughout the entire process! She put together an itinerary, receipt, etc, and I didn't have to organize anything on my wedding day. She also worked with various other family members of mine, who were each trying to coordinate some aspect of my wedding. When I first reached out to Soiree, I didn't think I wanted or needed a coordinator, but looking back, it is hands down the best money we spent! I cannot recommend the Soiree team enough. For the bridal shower, Jessica's partner, Ali, came up to my mom's house, set up the entire living room with decorations, and coordinated the caterers. It went off without a hitch and was fantastic! Overall, I cannot recommend Soiree enough, not only because of their amazing work, but because of their constant and consistent professionalism. A big bonus was that they were willing to work within our budget and tailor their services. If you're a bride who worries about schedules, details, etc, hire Soiree!! Even if you're not, hire Soiree to help ease the overwhelming wedding-day scheduling issues!!

They stay after the ceremony and give rides to guests and they also take excellent photo's of all the carriage rides and guests riding which they mail to you in a CD after wedding. The rides and pictures were a huge hit with the guests. They really helped make our wedding magical. The pricing is very fair and reasonable (which is really saying something in the context of wedding pricing!) and in my opinion an excellent value. I would recommend them to anyone that wants to make their wedding just a little bit more magical.

This makes for natural looking photos. Her work is amazing. Her photos always turn out absolutely gorgeous. She has such attention to detail and a great eye for capturing the perfect moment. I always love the photos! We have had her do family photos, newborn photos, Christmas photos, and first year photos. More recently, her main focus has been boudoir photography. I finally pushed myself outside my comfort zone and had her do my photos as a gift for my husband for our fifth wedding anniversary. The whole experience was fantastic. Hair, make-up, access to her wardrobe, and the session itself. I felt so comfortable in the most uncomfortable situation with Amber. She is absolutely perfect for this type of photography. I had fully anticipated picking myself apart in the photos, not the photos themselves, I knew her photos would be beautiful, but me. However, when I saw them I didn't. She didn't edit me out, not my stretch marks, not my cellulite, not my scars. It was me and I thought - "wow, I look quite pretty." She is worth every penny and I couldn't be more grateful for her helping me get a glimpse into seeing myself how my husband does.

I'm in the process of shopping for sperm, and there are a lot of cryobanks to choose from! I chose…read moreNW Cryobank because they're far and away cheaper than any other cryobank I saw. I know price shouldn't matter that much, but So, the price is great. What about the rest? NW Cryobank doesn't have as easy a user-interface as some of the more expensive cryobanks, but they're still pretty good. You can search by all the normal characteristics, and the free information on each donor is definitely detailed enough to give you a solid idea about who you're picking. I had a couple of questions about filling out their registration forms, and when I emailed them I got an almost immediate response. I haven't been using this sperm bank for very long, but based on my experiences so far I like them a lot, and would recommend them to anyone looking for some sperm.

Go straight for IUI is what I would tell my past self when starting to be a client at NW Cryo. A…read moregood place to find out more about other people's experiences is the donor sibling registry searched up along with the name of any bank you may / have ordered from. I think it is awesome this works for some people at home. For me it took IUI. Many years and thousands spent, one success with their help, would have loved another, but it is what it is. In retrospect, temp charting consistently may have upped the odds. The reality is, from my research, each donation is divided into up to four units to be sold. Their site saying a donor has a reported pregnancy may not be accurate - I suspect they fudge this if he has a child from a relationship (based on cinflicting data when I asked). What also worked on my one success was realizing that I would have better luck if I selected a donor who had a great track record. While the company itself does not provide this, occassionally other clients will share and that donor will still be in stock. I was more than willing to reduce my candidate pool to increase our odds and that worked beautifully. Unfortunately I was never able to replicate all those factors again, and I believe NW Cryo has hit a couple bumps in the road as far as modernization. Their prices are good, but my doctor said to plan for five or six IUI's to get one success. If doing it at home doesn't work after many attempts, it no longer feels like a convenient, dignified, value. I read somewhere that a doctor said it would take 80 vials for your average fertile woman to get pregnant (not just here, most banks). I no longer feel it is a reflection on my fertility that around 20 vials over 11 years yielded one success. Other clients are generally supportive and a wealth of information; doctors and banks are more apt to treat their steps in the process with rote indifference, perhaps they can't summon the same level of caring or enthusiasm because for them the more vials you buy, the better, regardless of outcome.
