We were on the hunt for pumpkins one weekend. On the drive home we saw a sign for this place, so we…read morespontaneously pulled in. There's lots of parking after you drive down the gravel road, and we were directed to a spot by attendants. They were very nice and helped us return our cart at the end. I immediately loved the adorable decorations, the colorful wheelbarrows, the pumpkin displays, and all the family activities. They had campfire sites sprinkled throughout the central area where you could buy smores supplies and make a smore after pumpkin hunting. They had a few snacks and a hot and cold cider available. Tickets to the corn maze were available at the purchase desk, and there were also lots of great photo stands around in case you felt like being a pumpkin-head. It was very well thought out as far as it being a one-stop family autumn fun festival. They had two large patches with multiple varieties of pumpkin types with varying ranges in size, color, and shape. As is customary for me, I found the wartiest, ugliest one for myself, and the husband of mine found the biggest and most pristine. If you didn't want to cut your own, they have many displays you can sample from. Prices were displayed based on relative size, which I like way more than the trouble of weighing. Overall, it was a fun holiday experience.

Bellevue Botanical Garden is a beautiful place. And the fact that it is always free too! It's open…read moreevery day even holidays! To be a small botanical garden, there's a nice walking path and many, many beautiful flowers and plants to see. There are often local community events hosted here. Activities for the young to adults. They have classes that you can find and sign up for on their website as well. And the classes are affordable!! You may even see people taking wedding photos here because again it's beautiful. The park is ADA friendly. The path is dirt and pebbled but can be navigated with a wheelchair. There are bathrooms on site and a small shop. I have never purchased bulbs or plants from here but I know there is a big community around that. The coffee shop in the garden can get busy. But a benefit is we were able to charge my husband's wheelchair there on a visit. While the park is open every day, the coffee shop is not. Definitely this should be a spot for all locals. And not just a one time visit either.

Once the entire family met up, we climbed back into the car and headed to Bellevue. Not sur if it was due to the time. But we were surprised there was a lot of parking available. We spent a good 2-hrs here which included getting lost and finding other street entries into the botanical park from a school and from other busy street corner at the bottom of the park. Nice and shaded, quiet little creeks, plenty of seating for those that were inspired to journal, plenty of elderly people using this time to exercise and stretch. We enjoyed the different areas like the swinging bridge, the Japanese garden and even the little cafe they have there. Fairly priced items and plenty of tables to enjoy a refreshment and snack. By the time we were done, the gift shop was already closed. So I took the opportunity to drop a donation into the box instead.

From the initial meeting,…read morewe could already sense their attention to detail and wanting to provide us with the wedding entertainment we dreamed of having for our special day. From day one Tristin, worked with us and provided us with the smoothest planning process. Our wedding was a destination wedding and several accommodations had to be made, but Tristin made the process simple and easy. We wanted a band that would be interactive, engaging, and entertaining for a night to remember. This bands provides all that and more. They have several different costume changes, great sound and entertaining engagement throughout the night. They have choreographed songs and get into the crowd engaging with all the guests. They kept all of our guests on the dance floor all night begging for an encore as they ended. Our guests were even chanting "best band ever". To this day the band is something guests have highlighted from our wedding when they speak of memories from it. I cannot express how amazing they were to work with. Tristin makes sure to take any planning and stress completely off your plate. Overall, the band is truly incredible and will provide the best level of entertainment you will want from a live band at your wedding. They have a great song list and amazing mashups they perform. We are so incredibly happy we chose them for our special day and can't thank them enough for providing such incredible memories for us and our guests

From the very beginning, Tristin was so helpful and accommodating, and made sure that we were involved in every step of the planning process. She was also very responsive to our questions and requests (always answering within 24 hours), and went above and beyond to make sure that our wedding was everything we wanted it to be. On the day of the wedding, the band was even better than we could have imagined. They had so much energy and enthusiasm, and the dance floor was full from 8:30-11pm. Our guests kept raving about the band and asking us how we found them. Their style of singing mashups felt like a DJ - we never once were bored of a song or felt a lull in the room. One of our guests is a professional musician and echoed how impressed he was - it was clear they took the time to practice the songs and flow ahead of time. We would highly recommend The Afterparty Band to anyone looking for a great wedding band. They are professional, talented, and they really know how to make a party!

I'm definitely the target market when it comes to magic shows/tricks - they blow me AWAY and I can't ever figure out how it's done! However, I'm convinced that Mark may actually just be a wizard because the stuff he does right in front of your eyes is phenomenal. He does all sort of tricks - visual, mind, predictions, etc. If I found out Mark was having a show that was something ridiculous like 4 hours long and a $500 ticket price, I would buy. Seriously. That's how great this guy is at what he does! Blown away doesn't begin to describe how excited I was about Mark's performance. Can't wait to be able to get the chance to check him out again!
