I rarely leave negative reviews, but after multiple events with this rental company, I feel…read moreobligated to share my experience. The biggest issues have been reliability, communication, and lack of accountability. On several occasions, deliveries were late, items were missing, or the wrong items were delivered. Every event seemed to come with a different excuse--truck breakdowns, driver issues, accidents, and other last-minute explanations. One event was held outdoors in a community backyard. The company failed to pick up the rentals after the event, leaving everything there for five days. I had to return the next morning to move everything indoors myself, which was extremely embarrassing in front of my client. At another event, they arrived with the wrong table covers and had to leave and come back with the correct ones, causing significant delays in my setup schedule. The final event was the most disappointing. We agreed that all rentals would be be delivered by 8:00 AM. By 9:00 AM, I still had not heard from anyone. When I finally received a response, there was yet another excuse involving a driver accident and lack of access to the rental inventory. The goblets we had agreed upon were never delivered, the table covers provided were not what was expected, and the napkins were sent separately through an Uber driver and did not arrive until 12:30 PM. My event started at 1:00 PM, leaving me to fold and prepare 110 napkins at the last minute. In addition to the service issues, the quality of many of the rental items has been disappointing. A number of the chairs appeared worn, damaged, or broken, which is not what you expect when providing rentals for professional events. I have also heard similar concerns from other vendors in the industry, including stories of major delivery failures. While I can only personally speak to my own experiences, the repeated problems I encountered make those reports believable. As an event professional, I work hard to create a seamless experience for my clients. Unfortunately, this company's repeated delays, missing items, poor communication, poor-quality inventory, and failure to honor commitments created unnecessary stress and negatively impacted multiple events. Based on my experiences, I cannot recommend this company. Reliability is critical in the event industry, and unfortunately, that is not what I received.

Melissa was the BEST Wedding Planner we could have ever imagined for our BIG FAT INDIAN-JEWISH…read morewedding day! I contacted Melissa after seeing Honey Bear Events on a website of vendor recommendations, but I had no idea that I would be meeting my literal dream wedding planner. Melissa came into my wedding planning process after we had another planner quit on us. While it was easy to initially feel embarrassed, Melissa made me realize this wasn't about us at all and the previous planner had her own issues that we could do nothing about. It was a blessing in disguise as I transformed from stressed about planning to EXCITED to be wedding planning with Melissa as my planner!!! She immediately made me feel comfortable and that I could trust her with all the tiny little details floating around my brain. When Melissa and I started working together, I was living in Boston planning my wedding that would take place in Santa Barbara the next summer. Melissa was so accommodating with my schedule and when we would talk on the phone I knew I could talk to her for hours in one go and feel so incredibly relieved after. I did the Full-Service planning package with her and she was so amazing at providing suggestions for vendors, setting up calls with them for me, and getting their pricing together, so that I could have a productive call with them. She would also prepare PowerPoint slides of my design vision that she would share with them on the call, so we could make sure they were on the same page about what I wanted my dream wedding to look like. One vendor in particular that Melissa found for me and was absolutely amazing was Pratto Paper Company. Lauren Pratto was an absolute pleasure to work with when designing my wedding invitations, day-of-stationary, and signage for the wedding day! Melissa went way above and beyond to create my vision of a mirror seating chart by working with Lauren and another vendor to build 3 giant mirrors that could stand on their own and then had Lauren apply the names in vinyl to the mirrors. I was BLOWN AWAY with how much Melissa CARED about my wedding and it really felt like she was just as invested in making my dream come true. Something I was looking for in a planner was someone who would communicate with family members that were helping with some of the wedding events/finances/etc. Melissa made me feel so at ease and handled these conversations like a breeze throughout the wedding planning process. She worked with my mother-in-law to plan a BEAUTIFUL rehearsal dinner with the most GORGEOUS FLORALS from Honey Bear Events. She worked with us to ensure all our deadlines were met and leading up to the last 2 weeks before the wedding, I didn't feel stressed at all like I imagined I would. Everything was taken care of and if it hadn't been, I knew Melissa had a handle on it. As we approached the wedding day, I loved that Melissa was my SUPERWOMAN. She immediately went to bat with the hotel when they tried to put me in a different bridal suite than what was initially discussed. She never showed me any stress she was under and made sure Kevin and I were having the BEST TIME! Everything flowed so well from the moment we stepped into the hotel on Friday. On Saturday morning (Wedding Day), Melissa had her assistant bring us bagels and ordered us coffee and juice to our bridal suite. She had already set-up a group text with my maids-of-honor to communicate with them the day of, and she was fully on top of all the vendors arriving for a 5-6am set-up time! Throughout the day she would come check-in on me, make sure I was eating, and again never made me feel like there was anything going wrong outside (a week later I would find out the hotel was a mess to work with). She and I are VERY DETAILED people and I can tell you that there was not a single detail forgotten that day. Melissa was there all the way until the last vendor left and we caught her when we were coming back from our afterparty. I wanted to give her the biggest hug and cry! She was the angel in my head that created the most STUNNING wedding I could have ever imagined. I am so sad I didn't get the photographer to take a picture of Melissa and I, so please make sure you do!!! You will never want to forget how Melissa and Honey Bear Events made you feel during your whole wedding planning journey!! I could go on forever with everything she did for us, but she is literal family now and I cannot wait to find the next big event for Melissa to help plan with me!! THANK YOU SO MUCH, MELISSA and HONEY BEAR EVENTS!! You were the BEST WEDDING PLANNER EVER!

We got married on 3/26/21 and from the day we hired her 1 year prior she was nothing but awesome. For starters, she is truly a kind person who knows literally all things wedding. My now husband and I are both resident physicians and looking back it's so hilarious to think how lost we would have been if it weren't for her knowledge. She made my life 1000x easier and addresses and fixes problems that you didn't even know or think you would have in a wedding. She always responded to us quickly and I know she saved us hours and hours of time by how helpful she was coordinating things for us. I must have changed my mind a hundred times regarding the decor or design of our wedding, and she immediately rolled with the punches and did everything possible to make all of that happen. We had multiple vendor meetings together in person despite being in a pandemic and she always brought her a-game to those. We never knew what questions to ask the vendors, but honestly, we didn't have to! Cortney literally runs the show and gets all the hard talking done so you don't have to. My parents, my bridesmaids, and even guests of the wedding kept commenting on how efficient she was at addressing and fixing all the little things that naturally happen during the day of the wedding. For example, the evening before our wedding rehearsal she asked me if I had a coat for the next day since it was going to be chilly. I told her I hadn't and literally right after the rehearsal, I received text messages from her at the mall with pictures of coats that she thought would look good with my dress. She really went above and beyond for us because at her core you can tell she really cares. She and her team will always hold a special place in our heart and we can't thank her enough for helping make our wedding as beautiful as it was seamless. Seriously a perfect day.
