As a current bride-to-be, I'm one of those seemingly rare girls who never daydreamed about my…read morewedding. Needless to say, upon getting engaged I was lost and clueless on how to plan a wedding. Sure, I'd been to a few but this was going to be My Day, not my friends' days. I had to find guidance. Enter The Not Wedding, a yearly event where brides and their moms/fiances/bridesmaids/family/etc pay money to become guests of a "wedding" that is put on by different vendors every year. The vendors treat this as a real wedding so you can see how they perform under pressure to please an extremely large crowd. I was very impressed. All three photography companies did an excellent job, all the event planners and decorators and bands and dress designers did amazingly incredible work. The best part about it? It features local folks like you and me. Second best part? If you go with many of these vendors, you'll know you're getting a customized wedding just for you. No cookie cutter weddings here! We found our caterer through this event, discovered a cake we weren't too fond of, found a vintage decorator to work with, and even reconnected with an old friend from long ago only to discover we a) live 5 minutes apart, b) we are getting married at the same location, and c) I really needed to contact her wedding coordinator and now she's also my coordinator. Lots of things that normally you'd pay money for tastings and trials but here was everyone's work out for all to see and it was only $35 a person. I saw bridal shows asking for more money and those are just places where run of the mill vendors from all over the place harass you into buying things. Give this a whirl if you want something fresh, fun, and YOU. If you have an extra long engagement, go twice! Vendors change out yearly and again, they are all local. Best way to get ideas is to see it all in action, hands down. They're now expanding to San Diego and Orlando this year, which is great news for brides in those locations!

LT Townson is a Goddess amongst wedding planners! She is patient, calm, well-informed and…read moreknowledgeable when it comes to planning a wedding. In the wedding business it's important to remember you get what you pay for. This has been the best money spent in all of my wedding expenses, so far. Bash came HIGHLY-RECOMMENDED thru about 6 different websites, so I reached out to LT, and made arrangements to meet with her. I fell in love the minute I met her, and signed her immediately. There isn't anything LT won't do in the best way possible, to make this day amazing. She's planning it all, including the rehearsal dinner and farewell brunch, blocking rooms, hiring vendors, booking formal wear appointments, monitoring our budget, monitoring our wedding Web site, save-the-dates, invitations, the list goes on and on and on. I don't know how she keeps it all together, and looking effortless! To date, she has schlepped us to numerous wedding venues, catering tastings, vendor appointments, kept me from melting down numerous times in the midst of planning my wedding, is on-track with all of my whacky requests and handles my micro-managing with absolute grace, stays in constant e - mail contact with me, and is definitely the calm in the storm. I still have 9 months until my wedding, and without LT and Bash, I'd be lost and probably in a mental home by now. I will most definitely update my review once our wedding is over, but for now, I'm here to tell you that Bash Event Planning, and LT are AMAZING!!! I owe this wonderful woman a fishbowl-sized cocktail when this is all over. ;)

I wish I could write a glowing review, but my experience with House of BASH fell far short of what…read moreI expected from a professional wedding coordinator. A wedding is one of the most important days of a couple's life, and the reason we hired a coordinator was so that we could be present and enjoy the day rather than manage it ourselves. Unfortunately, my family, friends, and vendors ended up stepping into many of the responsibilities we specifically hired House of BASH to handle. What makes this especially disappointing is that the written scope of our $1,800 "Something Old" package explicitly included vendor management, master timeline creation, rehearsal coordination, guest direction, reception flow, troubleshooting, and two experienced House of BASH coordinators. The sales process vs. the reality When I first inquired with LT, she was extremely upbeat and confident on the phone and described everything House of BASH could provide. I initially planned to use her for both coordination and floral/design services. The design process was one of the first places where I became concerned. I provided a Pinterest board with the aesthetic and ideas I wanted, and the resulting proposal largely consisted of images from that board rather than a developed design presentation showing how those ideas would be translated into our wedding. The proposal itself was difficult for me to follow and did not give me confidence in moving forward with the additional design services. I ultimately decided not to continue with those additional services and lost $300 associated with the design process. At that point, I decided to handle much of the design myself. Communication and professionalism Once we moved into the planning process, my experience was very different from the initial sales call. Communication with LT was often blunt and made me uncomfortable asking questions. I was told things were "unusual" or "not what [she] experienced in years in the industry" when I asked questions or made decisions differently from how she typically runs weddings. I also worked primarily with an assistant throughout much of the planning process. When we had our venue walkthrough about a week before the wedding, the assistant asked questions about details we had already discussed, including linens and cocktail stirs, even though we had already confirmed we were not doing those items. More importantly, the questions that mattered most to the actual flow of our wedding were not discussed in the level of detail I expected from a coordinator. The package we purchased specifically included vendor management, master timeline creation, and two experienced House of BASH coordinators, so I expected the team executing our wedding to be very familiar with our plans. Timeline and preparation I chose to build our master timeline around our photographer's schedule because photography was extremely important to us. LT repeatedly described my approach as "unusual," and I felt pressured to follow her preferred way of doing things. Ultimately, I stayed with the timeline that worked for our photographer, and I am grateful I did because it allowed us to get the photographs that were important to us. The bigger issue was that I felt I had to prepare extensively for the coordinator rather than the coordinator preparing us. We created our own comprehensive wedding binder containing our timeline, vendor information, ceremony music, meal assignments, substitutions, and day-of instructions. We printed copies and distributed them to our wedding party and family because we wanted everyone to have access to the information. Despite that, even in the week leading up to the wedding, the coordination team was still asking questions about details such as ceremony music that were already clearly documented. The rehearsal Our rehearsal was scheduled for 11:00 AM. My wedding party and I were there on time, but LT arrived at approximately 11:08 AM. Eight minutes may not sound significant, but the package specifically included rehearsal coordination and leading the ceremony rehearsal so the wedding party would know where to be and when. I had not been given a clear answer beforehand about which coordinator would be present, so I personally had to call and text to figure out who was coming. That experience did not give me confidence going into the wedding day. Wedding-day coordination and vendor management This is where the difference between what we purchased and what we experienced became most apparent. Our package specifically included vendor management, oversight of vendor setup, coordination with catering, management of the day's timeline, guest direction, reception flow, and troubleshooting. Unfortunately, my family and I ended up stepping into several of these responsibilities. Catering and vendor meals Our vendor meals and substitution meals were clearly documented in our wedding binder. On the wedding day, LT did not know which individuals were su

To my…read moreknowledge, he left more than 40 minutes before the dancing began, which resulted in many special family moments on the dance floor being missed. As the bride, I was focused on managing countless responsibilities throughout the day and should not have been expected to track down the videographer or ensure he remained to capture key moments of the reception. While the DJ did follow the playlist instructions we provided, I found myself having to approach him multiple times to ask that certain activities during the reception be announced. Beyond the introductions, there was very little interaction with the guests. The reception lacked the energy and engagement I was expecting from a wedding DJ, and there was no real "hype man" presence to encourage participation, keep the crowd involved, or help create a fun and lively atmosphere. While we did receive some good photos, there were several issues with the photography experience that left us disappointed. The photographer was very adamant about who would be included in our photos, and we repeatedly had to speak up to ensure our family members were included. There were also specific shots I requested that do not appear to have been captured. For example, I asked twice for a photo of the "I Do" wording on the bottom of my heels, and I am fairly certain that photo was never taken. There was also another requested photo in front of a group of people that was not captured. Throughout the day, the photographer seemed focused on her own vision and ideas rather than asking if there were any additional photos or moments that were important to us. While we followed her schedule and directions, very little effort was made to personalize the experience or make the photos feel reflective of who we are as a couple. My husband and I have fun, goofy personalities, but the overall approach felt very rigid and overly formal. We would have appreciated more flexibility, collaboration, and interest in capturing our personalities rather than keeping everything so structured and uptight. Owner tried to intimidate into erasing reviews and would talk down to me not accepting the the business really did mess up Other than continuing to explain what I'm unhappy with and what was missed, I don't see how you can really help me. I do not want digitall adjusted photos. can't get my day back or recreate the moments that happened. On top of the missed shots, reception photos, and fun dancing moments, those memories cannot be captured again. After sharing the link with friends and family, I've received messages about things that were not photographed. It's upsetting to hear this from others, and it validates everything I have expressed throughout this process Definitely not worth a single penny that was paid .

Amaris is passionate, organized, calm under pressure, knowledgeable and NICE! She's extremely professional in every way. My bridal party loved her. My vendors enjoyed working with her and my family was in awe of her ability to make my vision come to life. Amaris helped me plan my wedding from start to finish. She assisted me in picking every vendor. Although she had her own recommendations, she didn't push them too heavily on me (although we did pick a few of her highly recommended vendors). She was available by phone, email, in-person meeting, carrier pigeon (lol) at any time of day. She ALWAYS had her notebook/planner with her and kept track of all of our contracts and notes. I never ONCE had to take notes myself or keep track of the details. She also didn't work alone. Be weary of any coordinators who do everything by themselves. Something is likely to be missed or forgotten. She has a whole team of staff who assisted in bringing in my decor, setting it all up, AND CLEANING IT ALL UP! I did not have to lift a single finger AT ALL. Even with the best laid plans, issues arise. At my wedding, people showed up without rsvp-ing. Amaris scouted out additional tables and she had extra table cloths, center pieces etc that she brought with her (bc she's always prepared). She created more seating in the blink of an eye so that my guests were accommodated. When I walked into my bridal suite, she had a beautiful bucket of champagne and sparkling juice for my bridal party. She also moved constantly in the background! She handled all questions, comments, concerns with grace and never became flustered. Lastly, she made my vision come to life. She has an entire floor in her home dedicated to ALLLL things wedding. A storage facility for tables, vases, flowers, table cloths, chairs etc. she was able to do a LIVE mock-up of my centerpieces on the table. When I asked to see many different table cloth combinations, she had them available. SHE IS AMAZING! I asked for a broach bouquet and she had a breathtaking one waiting for me when I arrived at the bridal suite. She is amazing at what she does and you will be lucky to have her. Lastly, she handles various budgets but never allows anything to look cheap or basic. Her design suggestions are diverse but always classically beautiful.

We did not have much money and our budget was about $1800 for 80 guests. When i first came to Brandi, she made me feel very confident that i could trust her and that she really cared about what I wanted on my big day. As time progress, Brandi begin to not answer my phone calls and emails ( which will make any bride go berserk!) When we finally touch basis, she told me she was having a lot going on in her life and she apologized. So, i said to myself "ok well everybody goes through things, whatever let's proceed." Every time i met with Brandi, she had me thinking she was gonna be at my wedding and reception to serve as and overseer to make sure everything was perfect. WRONG! She didn't tell me until 3 days before my wedding day that she wasn't gonna be there. Also, one day while i was at work, i thought about the candles for the candelabra and wondered if that was included with it. Well, i'm glad i asked! She told me that they were not included and I asked her why she didn't tell me this b/c my wedding is in 6 days. She said that she thought i knew. Also, detailed instructions listed in the contract were not carried-out. My servers were confused and not only that, they begin to pack up and take up my tablecloths at 8:45!!!! Who does that!! Overall, my wedding and reception was a disaster and there's NO WAY I can get that day back! She seems to cater to the ones that has more money to spend which is very inconsiderate and thoughtless. If you have over $5,000 to spend, go right ahead and book her b/c she will POSSIBLY make your day forever fabulous. But if you're a bride on a budget, I would NOT recommend her.
