We were referred to Darlene by the funeral home, where we had been attending a meeting, after a full day of travel from out of town. Darlene met us at her shop, and led us to a sitting area. We never felt rushed as she consulted with us about what we needed and offered suggestions. The prices were reasonable. The shop itself was inviting and well cared for. This business is one of Erie's hidden gems. The service was client-focused, professional, and compassionate. The beautiful arrangements arrived on time at the church the following morning. We are very grateful for this referral.

I am writing a partial review and will complete this review after the event, but wanted to get it…read morestarted and have no idea how to do drafts. While planning my grandson's birthday party - we decided in addition to the bounce house - we'd need some tables and chairs as well. After looking through the phone book and realizing that we knew someone in the business - we called G & E Tents, Tables and Chairs. Bob (owner) was very friendly and took the time to explain every thing to me. The prices seemed VERY reasonable and it sure beat me trying to come up with enough tables and chairs for everyone. In fact - I was surprised that the cost of renting enough tables and chairs for 50 people was in deed a rental price and not some absurd price where I could have actually purchased the stuff. They also no longer allow people to pick the items up - which I was NOT looking forward to doing. I have enough to do without worrying about picking the things up myself - and getting a truck and all that crap! So knowing they are delivering the items to us ahead of party time makes things much easier for me. As well as picking them up afterwards - saves me a ton of time and maybe a back injury! I will update this review after the party, but for now - I wanted to get this one started. FYI - After looking at the review for this business, I noticed a filtered review. Though it was positive for the company, it appeared to have come from the owner of the company. For anyone who knows the owners - it appears that the owner was trying to give some free advertising and stated, "Great Tents, Excellent Service!". I contacted the owner and was surprised at what I learned and realize that though the comment was positive - it was not from the owner. In the Yelp community and for some people who look at reviews, seeing an owner comment doesn't normally sit well. So though it appears to be something good - for some - it is not good nor is it a proper way to conduct business and therefore may opt not to do business with them. Today 8-9-13 the chairs and tables were delivered to the party location. They were delivered ahead of schedule and I was not there to pay as promised, but they simply said they'd collect when they picked the items back up instead. So far - my review reflects excellent service, friendliness and professionalism. 8-10-13 - ok - so the chairs and tables are still there - not quite sure when they will be picked up, but I can go ahead and finish up this review. The tables were decent - some had cracks in them, but they were black, which is an awesome color that went well with the super hero theme! The tables were good - no construction issues. However, they were not the cleanest of tables and table clothes were needed to cover them up. Even a wipe down with bleach didn't get them clean enough - SO - make sure you have a roll of something to place on each table. We used red, which again was perfect for the super hero them. Overall - I will give this one a 4 star review. In order to get 5 stars those tables really need to be cleaned up and all the chairs should be in good condition.

We used G and E Tents for our wedding May 30th at Lake Erie State Park. I originally wanted to use…read morethis company, but knew I needed a dance floor so I looked at other options; ended up back at this company and just made our own dance floor. They are polite and easy to work with. They showed up on time at the park and made sure the tent was where we wanted it. We set up the tables and chairs after they had left. Everything was in good condition. A few of the chairs were dirty so we just wiped them off. We used the white wedding chairs so I'm sure they're hard to keep clean. I looked at quite a few options for tents tables and chairs, and they had the best deal. If you have a few people to help set up the tables and chairs and have a plan where you want them to go, you'll be all set!

Bounce About Inflatables - this business came to us highly recommended and after talking with the…read moreowner I realized that she puts safety where it should be and being a safety professional myself - that meant a lot to me. The bounce houses that Bounce About Inflatables carry are all of the larger size - this helps with preventing incidents from too small a bounce house. They also provide a cover - this helps with rain and shine. With a cover it prevents your children from being sunburned. They also set up the bounce house and take it down themselves - this ensures that every thing is set up correctly and there will be no worries of any problems during the party. The safety doesn't end there - their stock of bounce houses are also made right here in the USA - eliminating inferior and cheaper bounce houses you may be looking at elsewhere - again SAFETY MATTERS!. I know I may sound like a salesperson for this small business, but I'm not. I had to add this business to Yelp as I was not able to locate it. I have yet to actually have the party to know how things will actually work out for us, but wanted to get this review started. I will add too it after the party. However, the two drawbacks I have found with this business is that they are swamped with business and if you want the biggest and the best - call early and reserve your choice. Also - it would be nice if they would get into renting tables and chairs as well. I'd like more of a one stop shopping. So we shall see how this one does as far as ratings after the event is over with - for now they are doing a super job! OK - the party was a super success and the bounce house - TIGER - was super amazing and offered hours and hours of endless memorable fun. Though there were a few very minor incidents - there was no blood shed or broken bones encountered in the Tiger! The construction of this bounce house was amazing and what we put it through was just as amazing. There was not one single thing that would have made this bounce house better. We had over ten children of various sizes and some grandparents, parents, aunts and moms and dads that were easily accommodated by this bounce house as well. It was delivered and set up well in advance of the start of the party - giving my grandson some extra time to get use to it with just mom and dad. It turned out to be one of the coolest places to be on a blue sky and sunny day - almost like there was a small air conditioner in the bounce house itself - amazing! This business really knows how to do business and their new additions really make this Bounce About Inflatables THE place to check out for your next party! Due to the price, the safety features, the fantastic customer service - great friendly professional people, and the memories with pictures that this business was able to provide earns it my five star review!

Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience trying to work with this photographer…read more I initially reached out to him through Instagram because I was interested in hiring him for a very meaningful photo session with my dog at the Erie Rainbow Bridge for the future cover of his book. I never received a response to my Instagram message, so I eventually scheduled a video consultation through his website. For the first scheduled consultation, I admittedly was about 10 minutes late getting on the call, and I completely take responsibility for that. I rescheduled the consultation for the following week and made sure I was there on time. I waited more than 20 minutes, but the photographer never joined the video call. I then followed up by email and received no response or explanation. There also doesn't appear to be a phone number provided to contact him directly, so there was no way for me to simply call and find out what was going on. If there was an issue because I was late to the original consultation, I would have completely understood if that had been communicated to me. However, not showing up for a rescheduled video call and then not responding to my email is, in my opinion, very unprofessional. A simple email letting me know he was no longer interested in taking the job would have been sufficient. I was genuinely interested in hiring him and was looking forward to discussing the session. Unfortunately, the lack of communication and failure to show up for our scheduled consultation left a very poor impression, and I will be looking for another photographer.
