    There are two parts to this business, the planning services and the decorating services. I wish I…read morecould rate them separately because they were night and day experiences. The decorations that were planned out after our meeting were really great and turned out exactly as I wanted. The table settings, gift table, buffet line, and other decor were really beautiful and went extremely well with the theme. She got the vision perfectly and really made sure it was what I wanted. One drawback was that she was late to almost every appointment I had with her which left me waiting around. I haven't hired professional decorators before but it was pretty darn pricey for renting the items. If I had just used the decorating services and nothing else I would have had a good experience. Unfortunately, I opted for the full service planning package as well and even now, long after the wedding is done, my biggest regret was spending a big chunk of my budget on the planning. I had more stress over how much I was paying for the planning and how little I was getting than I would have if I'd opted to do it solo. For getting the highest package offered I thought I'd be sitting back and making final decisions while they did the leg work of finding the best options for my budget, reminding me of what needed to be done, checking in with me to make sure I was doing ok, etc. That didn't happen. I was the one emailing to make sure I was doing what was needed or asking if I could have info on the vendors that needed to be hired yet. They did schedule a few of the appointments for us to meet with vendors and attended some of the early meetings but they offered so little input and help in the meetings that it felt unnecessary for them to be there and I finally stopped asking them to come or even to schedule anything for me. Every project to make items for the wedding was on my own, I could have had their help or had them make the items for an additional charge of course. When it came down to 3 weeks before the wedding and I hadn't heard from them about anything in over a month I got really upset. I felt a lot of tension between us for the remainder of the experience which was unpleasant. On wedding day things did not go anywhere near as planned. I thought it would be the job of the wedding planner to make sure everyone was running on time, getting things done that needed done, solving last minute emergencies, but after seeing them once upon my arrival to the venue I didn't see much of them at all until after the ceremony. I was in the bridal suite getting ready and didn't get any reminders of time, updates on how things were going, or help keeping unnecessary people out of the bridal suite. I was assured I had all the best vendors but that wasn't exactly the case either. The DJ that was highly recommended by the planner couldn't seem to figure out timing, played the wrong song twice for our first dance (I had provided a CD, all that needed done was to push play) and they didn't seem to listen at all to the kind of music we wanted since we requested top 40 and country and started hearing a lot of electronica and club music. (Not the planner's fault but not sure how they are so highly recommended.) I had asked the planner to meet the baker when she delivered the cake and to keep the desserts in the fridge until the dinner service started so things wouldn't melt in the heat. This wasn't done at all, so our guests started eating the small desserts before the ceremony even started and the wedding cake was melting and extremely hard to cut and handle. I had forgotten to assign someone to cut the cake (another service not provided in the full service package) and when a family member asked her who would be doing that she was told, "the bride was supposed to figure that out", and the planner walked away without helping. In addition to all of this, I heard interesting things after the wedding about the decorator drinking with the bridal party. I have a problem with this for two reasons. 1. They are not guests, they are hired professionals and should not be drinking on the job. Especially not asking my new sisters-in-law to take shots. 2. That alcohol was paid for by me and was intended for the guests, not for the people hired to put on the event. All in all I was extremely disappointed and, more than anything, upset that I felt that money was wasted and could have been put to much better use elsewhere. I honestly still can't understand all of the glowing reviews I'd seen at the time and should have listened to the negative reviews. Weirdly, the other negative reviews I saw months ago no longer seem to exist. I'm sure every experience is different for every bride but I didn't get what I thought I was paying for and would recommend that anyone thinking about a planner should ask tons of questions to make sure you are going to get what you want. I now get to look back on this part of the wedding experience for the rest of my life with regret.

    Hands down I believe I had the most beautiful wedding in Boise, all thanks to Delicate Designs!

Diane and her team treated my wedding like I was a family member and went above and beyond to make sure no one had to lift a finger the night of our wedding. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone!

Brandi was great. She had monthly planning calls with us and thought of things we would have never thought of. She created timelines and coordinated with all the other vendors ensuring everything was organized and COI's were turned in promptly. The day of the wedding she was in the ballroom from 10am to 10pm working with everyone. She also did the floral for the wedding, and I must have had at least 20 people tell me how amazing the flowers were on the arch and sweetheart table. She ran our wedding rehearsal in the backyard of a relative's house, and everyone loved her. She has lots of experience and knows what works and what doesn't work. We had lots and lots of questions and she had an answer for everything with examples of what she has done in the past and what works well and what doesn't work. Her advice is priceless. I highly recommend Boise Events. My daughter's wedding was FABULOUS!

    I do not recommend going with this company. The owner of this business is the very two faced. My…read moreexperience with Brandi the owner was less then ideal. She they a fit the day of rehearsals literally slammed a door in front of my wedding party and parents so embarrassing. She also recommended her DJ who left during our ceremony and the sound cut out. Then the Caterer she recommended came in leggings and worn purple t shirts. I was appalled. This was a wedding. Unless you want to deal with Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde I would stay far away from this place or any other business she owns.

    Well so much for being called a party barn.... these people need to have a lil better people skills…read moreand not be so rude! First off trying to find where this place is at night is almost impossible. The entrance isn't lit up what so ever. So many rules that you don't know about. Some friends had a dog on a leash and the owners come running out saying "you better get the f'n dog off our property!" Didn't know dogs weren't allowed... but to come storming out of their the house and start cussing?? Come on. Be a lil more professional as business owners. Other friends had left as well because of how they were treated and spoken to. If you don't want people in your so called barn then don't rent it out!!!! Find somewhere else to throw a party. Should rename this place Idaho party pooper!! Ha!

    Bad business practices... I called to request a booking, and they refused. I wanted to book the…read morefacility for my daughter's high school graduation party in June. They said that was "wedding season" and the number of people I was expecting, around 20, wasn't nearly enough because they charge by the number. I asked if they were seriously refusing to book me, and the man I was talking to said yes. He said I could have it if I wanted to pay $1,000 which is what they charge for weddings. Wow!! so, unless you are looking for something in the off season of what they consider their money making time of year, don't bother. They were rude. On another note, I was at the place for a summer BBQ. The people that run the facility have a house on the property. Not only did they come over to the party and help themselves to the food and beverages...one of them got sloppy drunk...they sat in their backyard watching the party and the invited guests. The people having the party didn't know them and didn't invite them to be a part of it, they just included themselves as guests. Very weird.
