Our wedding was last night, and I really don't have words for how supported we felt. Jen was there every step of the way, making sure we were prepared, calm, and even that we had food and drinks any time we needed them. She managed all the vendor setups, and the execution was perfect. Truly, our day was amazing and we could not have done it without Jen!

Incredibly disappointing experience…read more My fiancé and I had gotten to the point of finalizing a contract with Madison at Pearl Events for them to only tell us at the point of signing they could not take us on a client because they booked another client the night before. They waited until the meeting to tell us, meaning my fiancé and I both took time out of our work day for something that could have been an e-mail. They offered to provide recommendations, they were unable to confirm any availability. All in all a disappointing experience and poor business etiquette.

This is pertaining to their catering services for a private event…read more The food here is top notch. We were so excited to book them for our event. Their options for cuisine is all delicious and very creative compared to some of the other caterers in town. Highly recommend the pork belly bites, and Kailua pork wraps. The steak and braised short ribs are top notch entrees as well. For sides we enjoyed the wasabi mashed potatoes and carrots a lot. Recommend considering for catering services!

Quite disappointed in the two corsages purchased for daughter's prom. One was $50 the other $55…read moreplus delivery. Flowers are not fresh (as some of the main roses are fully bloomed and already wilting around edges) - one of the corsages smells like formaldehyde. It's as if they were made from leftovers from other arrangements. Per other reviews, their flowers may be amazing for weddings, special occasion arrangements, but very underwhelmed on the corsages. I will be going elsewhere next year. **Update - We were expecting a refund per the business, and has yet to happen. I have contacted the business twice and no one has called me back. I have also left two messages via their website contact form and no response. I thought they were going to make it right but they have failed to do so.

The owner did get back to me and apologize , as well as issuing a refund, which was nice.read more

Full-Time Employed Bride - Seeks BZ Events…read more Ladies listen. We think we all have it under control when it comes to our weddings. I understand this is the day we dream about our entire lives - But trying to plan a beautiful wedding on your own is insane. I have a full-time job and you will quickly realize that trying to plan a wedding while working full time is nearly impossible. So I consider myself so lucky to get passed along to Becky and her amazing team at BZ Events. She saved me from many a headache and stress. Here's why.... BZ Saves You Time: Here is an example. Instead of trying to search for a wedding photographer on my own, she recommended 3 to me bases on my style and budget. Of course she had a favorite in mind and at the end of the day, I ended up choosing that photographer. But I could have spent a lot of time away from my job meeting with photographers and other vendors, but since Becky knew my style and budget, she was able to point me in the right direction. BZ Saves You Money: The budget for the wedding WILL be the most stressful thing you deal with. But Becky and her team keep you on track. They plan the budget out from the beginning so there are no extra surprises in the end. And her expertise on what vendors are good and who you can trust will save you money. I mean, who wants to use a vendor with holes in their tents? Becky knows who to trust and capabilities on some great vendors in the Austin area. Whether it's flowers, lighting or that little extra touch, she will help you get the wedding of your dreams. BZ Keeps You Calm: It's the most important day of your life thus far. And you will be stressed out. But somehow, every meeting with Becky seemed to make me feel at ease and on the wedding day, all I did was sit back and enjoy my special day, without having to worry about anything. In the end I'm not sure I would have been able to keep my job, or my sanity, without BZ Events. Becky and her team truly made our day very special and we owe them a HUGE thank you for making it a day we will never forget!

I'll be writing a much longer review later about how great she's been, how she took the time to really understand our vision and get to know us, and how we couldn't have planned an Austin wedding from California without her.

She knows everything and everyone in Austin, and she really makes "crunch time" in the last few weeks a lot less stressful than it would be otherwise! We love you Becky and couldn't do this without you! Can't wait for the big day!

i highly recommend NOT shopping at winnie couture in austin!! i went with a friend of mine for her…read moreto try on wedding dresses and from the moment we walked in, it wasn't a great experience. there was only one other group in there at the time, but by the time my friend entered the dressing room, they were gone. the store is very small, which is fine, but when we walked in there were two female employees standing behind the desk, neither of which greeted us. there was a very small selection of dresses and we were told to pick what she wanted to try on. once it came time to try the dresses on, my friend was not offered any help whatsoever so myself and our other party guest had to go into the dressing room, which was very small, to help the bride. my friend absolutely fell in love with a dress and asked for a few different veils to try on and as she was putting them on, both employees stood behind the desk and laughed at her to the point that one of them was squatting down to try and hide. this made her immediately feel uncomfortable and she wanted to leave. she tried on one more dress and they again, laughed while behind their little desk. unfortunately, this led to my friend not wanting to buy a dress that she loved and when i asked the two employees if there was a manager i could speak to, i was told they were not allowed to give out that information. as i spoke to them to let them know why what they did wasn't okay, they just shook their heads and didn't speak. winnie couture is not a welcoming environment at all and i don't suggest any bride go there to try on dresses.

We had a week-long corporate meeting in Austin, TX. To save money, we decided to rent a house…read moreinstead of using a hotel. But getting food to the hotel would have been a challenge...either cook for ourselves or cater from a chain. Our host suggested we use an events chef and connected us to Becca Schafer and her staff. This proved to be one of the best parts of the meeting. The food was very fresh. She used local fresh ingredients whenever possible. She was sensitive to the variety of dietary needs for our staff: from vegetarian, to vegan, and beyond. They made from-scratch hors d'oeuvres served to us out on the patio. They also accommodated our schedule for dinner, flexing the time the meal was finished to accommodate our evening activities. The staff thoroughly cleaned the kitchen afterwards. We had to start an email list of our attendees who wanted chef Becca's recipes, which she graciously agreed to supply to anyone who wants them. Our staff meeting planner found the prices to be quite reasonable for sit-down meal costs. Lastly, you may be able to find other great chefs, but it's not always easy to find ones that were so enjoyable. Our staff had so much fun with them in the house, they insisted that Becca and her crew join us for a glass of wine on the patio. They joined in like old friends in our conversation, shared some fun stories, and were very genuine in their interactions with us. If you need someone to plan your event in the greater Austin area or beyond, Becca Events is a "must" to put on your list.

I highly recommend Becca Schafer Events for any event!
