We worked with Tiffany for our engagement and wedding pictures and words cannot describe how…read morewonderful she is. She knows La Crosse extremely well and knows all of the perfect spots to take you for the type of pictures you are looking for. She is so kind, respectful, and communicative. We needed to postpone our wedding and change the venue due to COVID and she was very accommodating and reassuring that everything would work out - and it did! I was feeling pretty insecure about how I looked since I had gained some additional weight after COVID and she was very kind and understanding of my concerns and met them with kind words and reassurance. She knows how to make you feel comfortable with a camera in your face. We also had an extremely large family photo that we wanted to take (including 13 children) and she was up for the challenge and was able to wrangle all of those children flawlessly. I know that she is moving away from weddings to free up her weekends to focus on family, but no matter what the occasion is, Tiffany is a fantastic photographer and an even better person! We consider ourselves so lucky to be one of the last weddings she photographs.

My parents, my husband and I hired Weddings by Nancy for our wedding in Sept of 2012. At first, I…read morewasn't even sure we needed a wedding planner, but after picking an outdoor site for both the ceremony and the reception we decided that a planner might indeed be necessary. Most of our planning was done with Jill, and though their name is Weddings by Nancy, I want to make sure to point out that if you end up working with Jill you will in no way feel that you are not getting top notch service. I loved working with Jill. One of the things I love about both Nancy and Jill is how calm they are, they will greet you with a smile and a hug and I never saw either of them ruffled, even by my frequent changes or indecisiveness. I was nervous that by working with a wedding planner that somehow I would feel like all my inspiration that I found and wanted to implement would be changed or somehow feel less "mine", but Jill really helped me feel like we were planning this together and allowed my ideas to shine through. That being said, if you are completely lost on what you would like for your wedding they would be a blessing too. One of the things they do really well is providing you a few ideas at a time as to not overwhelm or confuse you. Weddings by Nancy also designed our wedding invites and escort cards. We received countless compliments on them. They were fantastic. Outside of the execution of decor, I found the assistance of a wedding planner to be particularly helpful during the catering meetings. Making a custom menu was much easier with a planner helping guide the conversations. It was also helpful to have a planner along at the florist meeting to make sure we covered each arrangement needed. Having a wedding planner was essential for our outdoor location because I wasn't aware of the little extras we might need, for example, a generator, a tent for the caterer, or insurance for the bar. Weddings by Nancy also helped us organize shuttles for our guests which would not have been possible without their help. The knowledge and expertise of Jill and Nancy in these areas was invaluable. If you are a detailed budget person you will appreciate the budget that is given to you right away and updated regularly by Weddings by Nancy. I have often heard people complain they went way over budget, in the end, we did go over budget, but it wasn't because of Weddings by Nancy, they always offered solutions to keep us on budget, we just chose to keep all the flowers, or serve champagne, etc. On the day of the wedding was when it became 100% obvious that there was no way that the wedding of my dreams could have been executed without Weddings By Nancy. I was beyond pleased with all of the decor. As I mentioned earlier, I was nervous that somehow I would feel that it wasn't my ideas, but that wasn't the case at all. In the end, I felt like it was my ideas, their suggestions and expertise, and a whole lot of Jill and Nancy's sweat and hard work that made the day perfect. The wedding of our dreams was put to life. On the day of the wedding I was able to wake up and just worry about getting ready, there was no setting of the room, or decorating to be done on my part, all I had to do was show up. Weddings by Nancy on the other hand was there from 6 am until well after the last bus left. All in all, I think anyone would be lucky to have Jill or Nancy assisting them with their wedding.

I am a busy business owner and was feeling a bit overwhelmed with all of the detail that goes into planning a wedding. It was also important to me that my friends and family did not have to work on my special day. Nancy is a very warm person and made me feel like my event was her only event. My wedding was very small and intimate but she took care that everything was just as special as any large wedding. Sadly, my parent were unable to attend my wedding. Nancy made the disappointment of this so much better. She did everything that a mother would do with her daughter during the planning process and on my wedding day. I felt as though I was her family. She was very accommodating to my availability for meetings, sometimes working late nights and weekends just to work with my schedule. She was also quick to answer my email and phone calls. She was professional in every way! Even under last minute changes that threatened to damper my wedding day, Nancy remained calm and offered satisfying solutions to any problems - truly going out of her way! Nancy and her service is absolutely priceless! I can't put a price tag on it! Truly, the BEST investment I made in my wedding! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

His style is very photo-journalistic and much less about posing you for a million shots in positions you would never actually sit or stand in. I have so many photos from my wedding that take both my husband and I back to the exact moment and emotion. Porter is also what we like to call a "photographer ninja", he was everywhere at all times but most of the time you didn't feel his presence which is why people look so natural in their photos. Finally he really listens to what you want and makes sure to document everything. I could not be more pleased.

The pricing was terrific in comparison to other quotes I received, so I was a little nervous.

I hope to never have to make a yearbook again, but would gladly work with Blossom!

When I was searching for vendors for our wedding, finding a DJ was the one I dreaded the most. Most…read moreof the DJ's I found in the area where we were going to be married were cheesy, car-salesman-like, pushy, and over the top. I just wanted someone who would help keep the reception moving and keep guests on the dance floor, that was it. I just couldn't find anyone that we meshed with personality wise. Then I thought of Abby. Abby and I have known each other since college and I knew she was a respected DJ, but hadn't considered her for our wedding simply because I thought it would be too far for her to travel. When I reached out to her, not only was I surprised that she was ready and willing to make the trip across the state but that her prices were far better than the local DJ's I had talked to. Abby and I had some conversations via email, getting details of our wedding sorted out and giving her an idea of what we had planned. Abby then suggested we meet in person closer to our wedding date to finalize the details and ensure she had a vision of what we wanted for our day. From the start, Abby was professional and knowledgeable, asking me great questions and providing me with solid advice from her years of experience with weddings. On the day of our wedding, Abby was a saving grace. When our catering was late and I was panicking at the head table, she came up and reassured me that everything would be okay and was flexible with our schedule for that evening's events (i.e. first dance, speeches, etc.). She knew I was counting on her to keep the evening's events moving along so she even went up to the catering staff to get an idea when the food would be served. I was so relieved to have her there and know she would do a great job. Our guests loved the music and we had people on the dance floor the entire night. Abby took many requests from our guests for songs. Abby has several different packages to offer and even can provide ceremony music and colored lights for the reception. I can't recommend Abby enough!
