I proceeded around the store with my daughter when she touched a balloon and the lady yelled at me with a very rude tone said can you not let your daughter do that in disgusting manner? Or maybe one second when my daughter touched the balloon so I did not see her do it and then stopped it right away of course. There was no reason for attitude towards me as a first-time customer or customer at general display definitely needs better customer service as not one single person there helped. I proceeded to leave as I wasn't going to give this business my money as I was planning on buying over 2000 balloons for a giant event that I will not be using this company.

Employees and owners were super rude!! I bought a balloon…read morefor my daughter's bday. They forgot to put a bag around the balloon when I purchased. The balloon literally popped in my car 10 minutes after buying. They blamed it all on me and wouldn't replace it. She told me "there should have been a bag around it." Even though they didn't put one around it. Made me pay 1/2 price for a new one bc "Helium was so expensive!" The $20 worth of balloons wasn't the issue. The issue was the customer service and the way they treated the customer. I'll never spend another dollar at this place and honestly dont think anyone else should either.

They also have other scents that are meant to make experiences. It seemed like the shop had more available options for the more popular products.

Howdy, ranger. Ranger Station is a locally owned, Nashville fragrance house-- specializing in…read moreluxury candles, colognes, soaps, room sprays, and diffusers. Scent notes range from fruit and amber to wood, spice, and smoke. Located in the heart of the 12 South neighborhood, this location offers an in person experience to sample each aroma collection offered and see all of their iconic products in person. The interior is very modern, clean, high-end, and aesthetic. The service was friendly and professional with one worker offering to tell us about their vast collections, seasonal scent, and encouraging us to sample the encased candles on display. I purchased the sandalwood + bergamot candle. Each candle is priced at $39 which is steep for their small size; however, the smell, quality, and branding is impeccable. When burning, this makes my entire apartment smell like luxury. The high-end candles are a premium soy wax blend poured and packed here in Nashville. Each candle vessel also doubles as an 8 oz lowball cocktail glass, complete with the classic Ranger Station logo. They are each packaged with a box of matches and a recipe card for a signature cocktail that pairs with your chosen scent. Upon checking out, we were prompted to sign up for their loyalty program. You receive point for every purchase, which lead to exclusive discounts and coupons. We were also told this allows emails to be sent notifying of special promos or early access to new releases of fragrance collections. We even got a free vinyl sticker complete with the stylish branding and identifiable hat graphic. Whether you are a local looking for an elevated fragrance, a tourist looking for a souvenir, or a friend looking for a house warming gift-- Ranger Station should be your first choice. The fragrance house offers high-end scents for all occasions and high-quality candles for all connoisseurs. You will receive great service and a great product. It is such a gem in the Nashville area, and I will be back! Later, ranger.

Harlan Ruby is a super unique party store. They offer unique party supplies. You will find boutique…read morestyle party accessories here: not what you would buy at your chain stores. I love supporting local businesses. As for the balloons from VroomVroom, these are adorable. They are a splurge. I debated making my own but decided I didn't want the stress and once I looked at the cost of buying supplies I would need and the time I would spend, I decided to just go ahead and place the order since it would be the "wow" factor when people walked into my home for my party on May 1. To have VroomVroom install, your order must be $600 at minimum. I believe I spent around $380 so I didn't go for the install and just picked up my garland - which the owner did carry out to my car for me. It was beautiful and full. It was SO easy to hang. I attached the garland on 2 places on my banister in my foyer. Photos attached. May was definitely a busy time for them and they are booming in business. I went in person to pick out my balloon colors and place my order face to face. I also placed my order weeks in advance because I know the spring is so busy for party vendors. I'm so happy I went for it and ordered these. And the garland lasted for 3 weeks! I then took it down and let a friend use it for a party she hosted. The balloons had gone down some but were still adorable. Now just remember- these balloons were inside, in a climate controlled environment. I'm sure if outside and in extreme temps, they wouldn't last long. But what Balloon would? I will order again for a special occasion and love the backdrop and photo opportunities!

It's quite aesthetic with bright lighting and wide, airy spaces. There's plenty of seating to enjoy food or the vibes. I got some boba and swung by Five Daughter's Bakery AKA the bakery with the 100-layered donut / cronut which takes three days to make. If I was hungrier I would have tried out of the restaurants. One point of confusion is the parking. It's technically free, but you have to register inside to get a voucher after scanning a QR code posted outside. The marketplace is not a particularly busy area unlike downtown, so I'm not sure why the marketplace has to make it so complex. I'm not sure there are many people parking and walking off...

Because I'm intent on walking…read moreeverywhere, I walked here from Vanderbilt and that was probably a crazy idea seeing as I was literally the only person walking on Charlotte Avenue. Anyway, there's free parking buuuut I guess you have to jump through a few hoops to get it (there's literally nothing else around so why not just allow people to park and come in?) A good amount of stuff going on in here: you can find clothing (more on the conservativ/athleisure wear side of the spectrum), gifts, snacks, a salon, cycling classes, coffee, a Mediterranean food stand, an Italian restaurant and more. I feel like I've barely scratched the surface! While I didn't try any of the food options besides the gourmet popcorn place (which is surprisingly affordable for gourmet popcorn!) I loved the drinks I had at both Eat Bubbles (boba, matcha etc) and the irresistible Pont Neuf wine bar (both of which I'll review separately). And perhaps best of all: they have great seating areas throughout in which you can set up shop for working remotely, drinking your drinks, eating your snacks... so have at it!
