Absolute Perfection -- Beyond Anything I Could've Imagined!…read moreI wish I could give 10 stars. I cannot say enough incredible things about this company and about Ashley. I've worked with several event and décor vendors before, and while many were great, none have ever come close to her level of creativity, professionalism, and excellence. Ashley is a true creative genius. She brought my vision for my engagement party to life and elevated it far beyond what I imagined. The décor was breathtaking! Every detail was thoughtful and flawless, and our guests were blown away. I've now used her multiple times in the past year, and every single experience has been above and beyond. I've recommended her to friends and family because I genuinely only trust their events in her hands . That's how exceptional her work is. She also accommodated my last-minute requests with her complete grace and enthusiasm, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. It truly felt like she cared about my event as much as I did. I will never use another décor service again. If you want someone who exceeds expectations, delivers stunning results, and treats your event with the highest level of care, book Ashley. She's simply the best.

I reached out 5 days before my event and she was able to fit us in and the results were fabulous! She responded quick to my message, we texted a bit about what I wanted, communication was great. She arrived around 8am to set up (party started at 1) and came back the next day to get all her things. Price was very reasonable esp compared to comps. And best of all, I was free to do other things instead of spending hours decorating & making balloon arches. I would chose them again in a heart beat!

Each year for the past 5 years (I've lost track now) we have contracted Do an Event (better known as Kevin Cohee) to handle our complex tent setup on the south steps of the Capitol building. Hundreds of legislators and staffers pour in for 4 hours to experience the sights and comfort of the beauty industry environment that Do an Event creates for us each year. Each year Kevin brings a unique twist and look to the tent on the steps...always intimate, fun, and fashion forward. The name of our event is "Welcome to Our World" better known in the beauty industry as the 'WOW' event. Aside from the wonderful stylists, estheticians and nail technicians that serve our guests, the staff of Do an Event is an integral part of why WOW becomes even more WOW every year. Every detail of our event is anticipated and handled with grace and ease. Kevin makes my job easy. It's great to be a hero to our client, and in great part it's Kevin's hard work that makes us appear so. I see another reviewer said they give 110%. I'd score even higher.

I can't wait to collaborate again in the future.

From our very first meeting, her passion, creativity, and attention to detail were clear--and the final result was beyond anything we could have dreamed. She took the time to understand our style, our cultural traditions, and the overall aesthetic we were going for--and then elevated it to a whole new level. The set up was absolutely breathtaking, with florals arranged so thoughtfully it felt like something out of a dream. The aisle, the centerpieces, the welcome decor--it was all cohesive, elegant, and completely us. We highly recommend Nikki and NC Event Designs!

I was frantic, calling people from Yelp, trying to find help. I reached out to Keith in the evening, crying, asking if there was any way he could provide the chairs and tables I needed. He acted immediately. By the next morning, everything was delivered--no hesitation, no excuses, just kindness and action. Ever since that day, I've used his services for all my events. He is dependable, responsive, and truly a wonderful human being to work with.

If you haven't booked Carolyn yet you should!…read more Immediately after meeting her I felt comfortable. She arrived exactly on time, set up in like 2 minutes and literally worked her tail off for 1 1/2. We had way more kids than we were expecting and she made these awesome detailed balloons for every kid and even managed to do face masks for 15 kids in like 40 minutes. She agreed to stay 30 minutes over our arrangement (I paid her) without missing a beat. All of my guests commented on how amazing the balloon creations were. She was worth every penny! Will use her for other events for sure.

I sent contact information via the website and ultimately had a conversation with Carolyn on 10/14/2024 for a 11/22/2024 event. She confirmed space, time and availability and confirmed the date. At no point did she mention any other needed communication, including a contract or deposit to pay. I thought this was odd, but she assured me all would be fine. It is now the day of and I spoke with her this morning to confirm everything. She said she would send me an invoice, told me what time I could be there and even asked if our artist would be willing to host these events regularly. An hour later I get professionally crafted email (which she has NEVER spoken to me in this way) telling that since I failed to get this event approved or send in a contract or pay beforehand AND because she is double-booked, my event is summarily CANCELLED. I have promoted this event, collected payment and to cancel with less than FIVE HOURS to go is not just unprofessional but is close to criminal. Carolyn refused to answer my calls, her staff hung up on me and all she did was send me an email stating she has to be "fair and consistent". Fair to whom?? Stay FAR AWAY from either of these businesses as they are NOT well run!

The man (I forgot his name) who came to set it all up was very nice as well. Some of the balloons at the bottom eventually popped but it was ridiculously hot when we had the party and considering how high the temperature was, most of the balloon garland stayed intact. The pricing is also not ridiculously high compared to others. Cons: Communication could have been a little better. The owner, Jessica, is sweet. We did, however, encounter communication mishaps such as delayed responses and some confusion and part of it was my mistake as I still haven't updated my Yelp account to my current legal name. We got that straightened out but communication still didn't improve much. I understand we're all busy (especially their weekends) but I wanted all the details and planning squared away ahead of the event to get it out of the way. It was anxiety-inducing for me. Overall, it was good working with them.

Words are not enough to express the level of customer service we experienced with Shelah and her…read moreamazing staff. From my initial inquiry, Shelah was responsive and helpful. The original date was taken, but she called me back to let me know the date had become available, which immediately showed her attention to detail and willingness to support. I was given one month to source a venue that met all of my client's requirements, and this event space offered that and more. My client needed a venue close enough to the conference location, while also being accessible for guests traveling on their own. 1422 The Blvd checked those boxes. Let's start with communication. Shelah was prompt, helpful, and willing to work around the clock to ensure all of my questions were answered in a timely manner. The client portal was also great. Everything from scheduling a virtual tour to booking an in-person tour was simple. I was able to view the property through the 360-degree venue tour, which honestly sold me. When I arrived for the in-person tour, I was curious how it would work since I am used to touring with a site manager. But I simply texted Shelah, the door opened, and we stayed on the call while she helped orient me through the space and answer my questions. The venue was clean, open, and an easy blank canvas for about 100 guests comfortably if seated. What I really liked was the option to merge the indoor and outdoor space with the beautiful glass garage door. I wish we could have used it for this event, but we plan to come back next year and hope to open the space up then. They also have ample parking, with overflow parking behind a beautiful wooden gate that is closed off from the public. I especially appreciated that the private entry was able to accommodate an executive coach bus for 36 passengers. That was a logistical concern for us, but Shelah and her staff helped provide the best route to prevent congestion on the main street. Having her staff onsite was extremely helpful. I also appreciated that we did not have to source outside equipment rentals. The venue offers rentals at an additional cost, and if you know anything about planning events, you know delivery and pickup fees can add up quickly. Having rentals onsite helped us avoid those extra fees and created a cost savings of a few hundred dollars. I would definitely recommend using their in-house rentals. They also use HoneyBook to manage contracts, invoices, communication, and rentals, which made the process easy and organized. On the day of the event, we hired Shelah's staff to assist with setup. A lot of our staff were coming from out of the area and did not have the capacity to assist with setup. I shared with my client that utilizing the venue staff would save us time, and I'm so glad we did. We were able to share our desired floorplan, receive feedback on the best layout, and arrive to the event with everything already set up. All we had to do was place arrangements on the tables and set up the welcome sign. All vendors arrived before both my client and I did, and with remote access, they were able to set up before our arrival, which made the day run smoothly. This venue is truly a hidden gem. The pricing was competitive for the value, and the location is excellent--central to downtown, about 8 minutes from Arden Mall, and approximately 10-12 minutes from downtown Sacramento. I look forward to working with Shelah and her team again and will definitely be sending clients her way.
