Are you not a dancer? Do you and your future husband have no dancing experience whatsoever? Then,…read morePhillipa is for you!! Phillipa did an AMAZING job working with my husband and I on our first dance. Not only is she extremely patient, but she is VERY professional and really loves working with all levels of dancers (inexperienced dancers included). Phillipa met with my husband and I four different times. When she first told me that we would have an entire dance perfected in four sessions, I laughed. There was no way that my husband and I (two inexperienced dancers) would learn an entire routine in four sessions. She proved us wrong! Not only did we have our entire first dance perfected, but we had a blast each time we worked with her. After each session, she typed out the lyrics to our wedding song (You Are the Best Thing by Ray LaMontagne) and the dance moves that went along with each line/stanza. She doesn't charge by the hour and spent as much time as we needed perfecting a particular dance move. She is extremely affordable and is flexible about meeting you for your dance lessons. Our guests really loved our dance and could not believe how flawless our dance turned out. The first dance can be stressful, especially because you know all of the guests' eyes will be on you (not to mention the videographer and the photographers). Having met with Phillipa to teach us our first dance helped alleviate some of this stress and we had a great time dancing the night away! We would definitely recommend using Phillipa to help with your wedding dance! Meghan and Nick

I cannot say enough about how great our experience was with Phillipa. My husband and I wanted to…read morelearn some moves for our wedding dance and we originally went to a community school ballroom class that ended with Tom and I thoroughly bored and angry with each other. We then luckily found JiveRoc. Phillipa came to our apartment and ended up choreographing our entire dance. Tom and I had so much fun after the first lesson we couldn't stop practicing after she left. She was wonderful. Our dance was challenging for us, but not too much that it wasn't enjoyable or hard to remember. At the wedding it was a complete success and all of our guests couldn't believe our dancing skills. Phillipa also gave us some tips for dancing with our parents that helped a lot too. I loved working with Phillipa. She was such a fantastic dance teacher. We know have moves to use when on a dance floor anywhere. We are so much more comfortable. Thank you JiveRoc!

The elements of surprise kept the guest excited to see what else they could find. Fruits, cheeses, meats, nuts, crackers, candy and more. I LOVED the white strawberries.There was even a meat & cheese clock for NYE! She added candles and other decor to elevate the look. Gold, silver, black and sparkles really gave a chic, NYE look. To top everything off, she added a fire display! Marijana also brought decor for the room. She added black and gold roses and beautiful balloon designs. All of the party guests raved about the grazing table and the overall look of the party. I was so happy to work with Marijana again. She is professional, creative and very reliable.

She is a true artist and I have complete confidence in her work. I just tell her the theme of the event and I am confident she will create something special. I also had the opportunity to attend a few events she decorated, I love how she works with fresh flowers and makes everything look beautiful and high end, it really makes a difference. Her attention to detail and her ability to capture something distinctly personal about every client result in a very unique and personalized decoration and that is what really sets M events apart from others.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Storybook! Our goal as a couple from the beginning was…read moreto choose vendors we really hit it off with. After interviewing several wedding planners, we met Lisa. The initial meeting was when my husband found out he had mutual friends with Lisa and when we decided that it was a perfect match. Lisa is incredible at what she does while juggling many other projects. With that being said, we never felt we were a burden or she was too busy to answer any questions we had. We had SEVERAL moments where we were in over our heads and Lisa was quick to pick up the phone and help us navigate through every detail. She was able to suggest other vendors we were in search of and dining options to fit our every need. She's professional, responsive, kind, understanding and most importantly, GETS IT DONE. Erin, one of the other planners on the Storybook team was part of our Wedding Day as well and she couldn't have been more a DREAM. She was quite literally at my side for the entire day until I walked down the aisle. Let me also mention we had 6 flower girls that were running around in excitement and Erin handled the chaos with such compassion & grace. She is professional, organized, empathetic & completely ON IT. She provided me with everything I needed and had forgotten in the few remaining hours before the wedding almost instantaneously while easing my mind until the doors opened. Our wedding would not have been the same without Storybook. I honestly don't know how we would have pulled it off without these women. We had 16 people in our bridal party, 6 flower girls, 3 ring bearers, our ceremony musicians cancelled 3 days before our wedding, I had blisters the size of my toes the morning of the wedding. I could go on and on about my worries.... but it all ended up PERFECT because of Lisa and Erin. Throughout the process, I never had a doubt in my mind that it would be perfect, but I'm here to tell you that these ladies pulled it off to be more than I could have ever hoped for without a hitch. It was an absolute pleasure working with them!

Joni has the perfect combination of an eye for detail and style. You can trust she will go above and beyond. To be honest, we weren't sure if we needed a planner when we began the wedding planning process and now we don't know how wee would have pulled off a wedding without her. 10/10 recommend.
