If you don't have at least $10,000 to spend with them, they don't care about you. We spent time going through the showroom with Cindy, meeting her at a storage facility because her space got flooded (not sure I believe that), and spent countless hours texting back-and-forth regarding what our expectation was and what we paid for. Come the day of our wedding, and what they deliver is not at all what we agreed upon. Well, it's our wedding, so what are we supposed to do but make the best of it in the moment? We reach out to Cindy the next day and ask to discuss the misses. She pushes us off until next week, because she is working on another wedding. Nice of her to show up to someone else's wedding but not ours. I guess we didn't pay her enough for her appearance fee. We get on the phone with Cindy the next week and explain to her all of the things that were done incorrectly (wrong arch, pipe cleaners exposed, poles and bases exposed, no one checks in/out with us at the venue, etc.). Cindy proceeds to tell us that we are misremembering all of the conversations that we had and that we should have contacted her when we noticed something was wrong. On our wedding day, this lady wants us to call her. Excuse me. What a joke. We're supposed to stop walking down the aisle to call her and say her work is subpar. Absolutely zero accountability from someone that got paid to provide a service. Save yourself the time, effort, headache, and lies. Work with someone else. Cindy and her husband are only in it for your money. They don't care about you.

RUDE RUDE RUDE! Do not waste your time! They broadcast weddings and do a great job but in all…read morereality it is not for American Weddings at all. This is an ETHNIC wedding decorator who is use to ethnic brides willing to dump at minimum $20,000. Note: this place was my top pick until I walked in saw the inventory and MET CINDY! Now where to start? Arrival. I had a 12p appointment I was early 11:45a was greeted. At 12p another car pulls up and she starts working with them on MY appointment time. Was told to have a seat while she shows this guy (who is already under contract) their inventory. She also mentions to me that they were late for their appointment. ON TOP of them showing up after me and then you take them in on my appointment time. It's a problem. At the beginning of the meeting after I had time to look around. First question I asked was this company focuses more on ethnic weddings. She said it's a 60/40 split. And proceeds to showing me "American" weddings. But use who they were marrying??? SOOOOO the wedding was still ethnic based. I was already lost. Before going to this location I advised that I had a budget of $2000-5000 for a simple 8 arrangement ceremony. Was told she needs $10,000 to work with. Mind you there was nothing in their inventory in my colors. Everything was gold. Hence ETHNIC weddings. It was clear that she had a base amount at $10,000 to do business which should have been said and I wouldn't have wasted my gas. Before looking at my "vision" as she asked me to send her. She was like you need $10,000 so I can work with that. I asked how would she know because if it wasn't MY wedding I could easily pull this off in $3-5000 including labor. But since it's my wedding I don't want to do any leg work. She said what I'm paying for is expertise. Now I know she full of it. She didn't at all look at what I was looking for before trying to quote a price. I was told that her brides easily spend $10-120,000 with her. Mind you THEY ARE GOLD MARATHON ETHNIC WEDDINGS. Any who. The woman "Cindy" was very rude and rushed me into making decisions. Only seemed to be wanting my money at this point. After we looked at her inventory, I asked for specific things in silver. She snapped and basically told me it was ugly and to change my wedding colors to use their GOLD items. Since when don't silver and white go together? But ok. So anyways she begins rushing me into paying. I brought the cash needed on the amount that was told to me over the phone. Which was not what she honored. I attempted to give cash. She told me to zelle the money and whatever payment I started with I would have stick with. Sounds pretty shady. So when I didn't have the cash amount based on the $10,000. She asked me how much money do I have. And then asked me if EVEN had money in my account. Are you serious?! Very unprofessional. I've paid every vendor cash at that. But at that point their business wasn't worth my money or time. She drafted a contract took a copy of my ID as well. When she read over the contract I stopped her on the first page. "Need 8 hours to set up." Excuse me?! The venue that was rented in full was $13,000 for 10 hours that's including my 5hour event time. So when I said well we can stop right there because I need to find someone that's a better fit. She gone cross out 8 hours and put 4 hours. And said she "thinks" they can get it done but cannot promise that. So this means they will still be trying to set up while guests are arriving. I said I do not need anyone rushing on my wedding. Then she had a smirk on her face and said "we don't need 8hours it's a generic contract for her ETHNIC weddings." Obviously there is a miscommunication completely. She said that she guess she would have to hire more ppl to help set up. Which means that it's probably her and another person setting up a wedding that takes 8hours and she is pocketing the bulk. I politely got myself up and left. I am happy that I didn't give my money. And upset I left without grabbing that pic of my photo ID that she had. In this $10,000 I would have still needed to get my bridesmaids to flip the room. And I would still have to pay the venue to rent their items including the stage. I don't understand the cost when the company has their inventory. Oooohhhh did I tell you guys the floating candle holders weren't clean that were on display. And she said she would need to hire ppl to clean them. Why wouldn't they be cleaned after use then restock them so that are ready. It was literally wax rings inside the glasses on display. Still confused on what $10,000 pays for?! Me too.

We chose the vendor package, which included the in-house photographer, and DJ among other things. While the convenience was appealing, several issues occurred throughout the day. To start, our centerpieces only covered 8 of the 10 tables. This may have been an oversight on my part, so I'm not placing blame on the venue for that. The ceremony itself was beautiful, but there was an issue with the music for my entrance. I chose the same song for both my bridesmaids and myself because there was a specific part of the song I wanted to walk down the aisle to. I had previously asked the wedding planner if the music could be looped if timing ran long, and she assured me it could. However, while waiting in the bridal suite with my dad, I heard the part of the song I was supposed to walk into come and go. I was later told that my niece and nephews took longer walking down the aisle. I completely understand that kids will be kids, but this was something we had discussed beforehand to prevent exactly this situation. Our photographer did a good job overall, though we are still waiting on the final photos. However, he forgot about the "first touch" moment I had planned with my husband until one of my bridesmaids reminded him. At the reception, there were multiple issues with the DJ. He switched the entrance songs for my husband, myself, and the bridal party. We used the provided app to carefully create our playlist, but it seemed like it was not followed closely. He also did not fade out the songs for our first dance or for my father-daughter dance as requested. Once open dancing started, he began playing songs that were not on our playlist and that many of our guests did not recognize. Overall, he seemed unprepared. As for the wedding planner, she was helpful during the planning process but did not seem organized on the actual wedding day. We had arranged for a coffee cart during cocktail hour. When the barista finished for the evening, he prepared a bag with coffee items for my husband and me for the next day and said he would give it to the wedding planner. However, the wedding planner left once dancing began. When we were leaving, we remembered the coffee and asked my mom to retrieve it, but she couldn't find the coordinator to ask about it. If one or two small things had gone wrong, it would have been easier to overlook. But the number of mistakes throughout the day left a very disappointing impression for both my husband and me. If you are looking strictly for a beautiful venue, Aristide is stunning. However, based on our experience, I would not recommend purchasing the vendor package, as we did not feel that our plans were executed with the attention to detail we expected.

I reached out to Dallas Palms via email on April 10, 2025, to share our concerns privately. As of…read moreApril 22, there has been no response, so I am posting this review to help inform other couples. We held our wedding on March 29, 2025, with over 500 guests, including many who traveled from out of state and internationally. While the celebration was memorable in many ways, it was due largely to the hard work of our family and the patience of our guests. Unfortunately, there were several issues with the venue that significantly impacted our experience. * Venue Access: We were promised full use of the Bellaire room, but only received access to half due to construction. We were not made aware of the final changes until the day of the event. This impacted layout and vendor setup, leading to unexpected additional costs. * Power Accessibility: Several electrical outlets were not functioning, creating complications for our vendors. * Restroom Conditions: Restrooms were not cleaned or maintained during the event and lacked hot water. Multiple guests brought this to our attention. * Weather Contingency: A tent was discussed in early planning as a complimentary option in the event of rain. We were later told--one day before the wedding--that it would cost $10,000 and had to be arranged a week in advance. Unfortunately, it rained during the event, and no coverage was provided. * Safety Concerns: During the rainstorm, staff began mopping the floors while guests sought shelter, and no wet floor signs were posted. This created safety concerns. * Seating Plan Issues: A detailed seating chart and layout were sent via email and reviewed during our walkthrough. On the wedding day, the plan was not followed. When we asked for clarification, the coordinator - Cathy, said she never received it, despite email confirmation on March 11th. * A/V Services: We paid $811 for six TVs to display our short film and seating plan. The TVs were non-functional during the event, and the on-site technician was not present. We were informed for the first time that our external DJ was expected to manage the venue's equipment, which was not part of the agreement. * Security and Staffing: We were told there would be two security officers, but only one was present. Several tables, including key family seating, were missing. The day-of coordinator, Cathy - was unavailable at critical times, and our family had to step in to support logistics during the storm. We paid over $35,000 and took many steps to confirm details in advance, including sending a comprehensive planning booklet and email follow-ups. Despite that, the event day was marked by disorganization and unfulfilled commitments. Our wedding was a once-in-a-lifetime moment. We had hoped for a smooth and professional experience. I'm sharing this review so others can make informed decisions when selecting a venue for such an important occasion. (Please check Google Reviews if you'd like to see supporting videos)

We reached out privately and never received a response. I hope this helps others make an informed decision.

We worked with them for about a year and a half, and they were so patient, open minded, and incredibly detail oriented the entire time. They really listened to what we wanted while also keeping us organized, on track, and making sure everything still felt elevated and classy. Katie and her team were always there to answer all of our questions and truly became our biggest advocates throughout the entire planning process. They even took the time to get to know our parents, which meant so much to us, and helped build trust with them along the way. It made the whole experience feel seamless and supported for everyone involved. They also went above and beyond in ways we didn't even expect. Katie and her team helped us find venues that weren't even on our original list and somehow just knew what would be the right fit for us. Katie has this amazing ability to light up a room and make you feel confident in every decision you're making together, which is honestly one of the best things you could ask for in a wedding planner. What meant the most to us was how much effort Katie and her team put into understanding all of our wedding rituals. Having an Indian wedding, this was really important to us, and they took the time to learn, respect, and execute everything so thoughtfully. It made us feel so seen and taken care of throughout the entire process. Katie and her team really went above and beyond with every detail that went into our wedding. I remember people asking me if I was nervous, and I would always say no because I fully trusted Katie and her team to pull off the best wedding weekend possible, and that is exactly what they did. They helped us build our dream team of vendors, and everything came together so seamlessly because of them. Anytime someone asks about our wedding weekend, we always say it exceeded our expectations and that is all thanks to Katie and her team. Could not recommend As You Wish more!
