Testimonials

Thank you for everything you did! Even though the day was cold and the rain never stopped, we had an awesome time. You really went above and beyond by whipping us into shape, trenching through the mud puddles, and by being awesome overall. I know we were probably difficult at times, but you were a true professional.

Thank you for everything! You've been a lifesaver. Joey and I were able to relax and enjoy this process with the comfort of knowing you were keeping track of the details.

You were total grace under pressure! We'll be delighted to recount to anyone who asks how diligently and energetically you smoothed out all the possible confusing moments — you were a real trooper, creative and balanced, when the storm was about to hit, and then especially when the power went out! Never saw so many candles, the show went on — and the crowd of dear people made their own electricity! Yours was the kind of on-the-spot cool and help that made the party happen! Many people told us that this was the best wedding they ever attended — for keeping the process moving through thick and thin, take a bow! All the best to you!

Thank you so much for your help with everything. Our wedding was a bit of terror from the beginning considering we were doing all the planning from out of state and we had so many different vendors involved but it turned out to be spectacular! Even with the rain, we wouldn't have changed a thing. Thank you so much for your help with tying up loose ends prior to the event and for helping us through the actual event. I thought you were incredibly meticulous and aware and very much on top of things. I definitely couldn't have done it without you Janice! So thank you again.

Grant, my parents and I cannot thank you enough for your professionalism and the time you invested in our wedding. We couldn't imagine having done it without you. We have not only received compliments about your work from the wedding party but also other vendors!

We absolutely loved working with Janice and think she was by far our best wedding investment. We can't recommend her highly enough. Though we had planned many of the details, her questionnaire and pre-wedding planning meeting highlighted many of the details we hadn't considered. I didn't want the wedding over-planned, and we wanted to keep things relatively simple and we wanted a reception focused on dancing and everyone having a good time. Even with things this simple, I did want things to "magically fall into place." Obviously, magic doesn't happen by itself — enter Janice, our magician. She is extremely organized and kept me (who is creative but not a 'structure' person) on track. She asked us great questions and gave us great advice. Her wedding day timeline was great because it forced Clark and me to leave the "vision" temporarily to address the details and get on the same page (literally). Our wedding went off without a hitch, and I attribute much of the credit to Janice and her attention to detail. We had a fairytale day/evening, and we loved every minute of it because we could enjoy it, knowing the details were in good hands. She understood our vision and ran with it. We loved working with Janice (have I said that already?). She was the perfect partner for us.

We would like to thank you for the extraordinary work you did for our daughter Maria's wedding. You handled every detail with calmness and efficiency. You are a very detailed young woman who helped us get the wedding off the ground in two and a half months.

I want to acknowledge what an outstanding job you did! You demonstrated your flexibility with the last minute change in ceremony location and the surprise pies provided by Michael's mother. You were outstanding in the way the flowers were moved from one location to another to take the best advantage of each arrangement. Everything was done efficiently. I really appreciated the quiet way you kept me informed and on schedule. I was amazed how quickly and effortlessly everything was packed up for us and brought to the front door for loading. It was truly a beautiful evening. Thank you so much. I shall certainly recommend you to others if I have the opportunity.
