What a gorgeous place for a wedding! I know this building probably has super rich history but I…read moredidn't really get too much info on that. All I know is that one of my dearest, best friends from FL got married here and I was honored to be part of the ceremony and celebration! When we went in for the rehearsal my first thought was man, I shoulda brought my wedding shoes to practice up and down the stairs. Well, for all my nerves and lack-o-balance, surprisingly it was fine on the wedding day. I really liked the center stairs leading to the stage and in the back of the room was a gorgeous balcony! It's so hard to picture the actual thing when it's just rehearsal but I felt as though it didn't need much visualization. Behind the stage area was 4 small dressing rooms which was perfect for us to get ready, into dresses and final touches (we had already done all our hair and makeup at home) There is also toilets in the little rooms which was SUPER. My friend's grand entrance was from the upper balcony (where there really is no hiding space) and the rest of us were walking from the side stairs going down to the first level (where the cocktail hour would be) Right after the ceremony, we did group photos while the staff transformed the room from service to party. They did a wonderful job and very efficient to make sure that everything was set and ready to go. This is such a beautiful place for a party (cocktail hour downstairs with the sitting space in front of the 2 fireplaces was also excellent) I really couldn't imagine a better place to have an indoor wedding. VERY intimate yet with enough space to spread out. Staff was amazing. It was a perfect venue for the perfect day. 31day Yelp Challenge 7/31

So. Being an event manager, planning my wedding was not easy...I have very high expectations, and…read morenot a super high budget to match. So what do you do?? How do you find the perfect wedding venue?? Well - we stumbled upon the Renaissance Place. And they were one of the more expensive venues. However, they weren't a hotel (which was important for me), and the building's character was just breathtaking. After visiting 100 more options, we decided, this will have to do. Then we met Mike. And from there, our wedding just soared!! He was so helpful in explaining the different ways to utilize the venue, helped me understand how my guests would be accommodated throughout the day and assisted me with any questions or concerns that came up during the planning process. He was extremely responsive and made me feel like I was the only wedding he had this summer (which I knew was far from the truth) Come the day of the wedding, I was completely comfortable handing him all the details and logistics ... and then I could focus on me and my husband. We had A BLAST!! Every one of my guests commented on how much they just loved the venue, how the staff was so friendly and went above and beyond to make each person feel important. Our day was absolutely perfect. And I can't imagine how I could have enjoyed it if it weren't for Mike and the Renaissance Place. We are forever thankful for the memories that will last us a lifetime!!

Are you excited to fret over what flowers are going to be in which vases at the reception? Would…read moreyou rather dedicate all your waking free time to chasing down rental and florist contacts, or would you rather sleep? Fretting and chasing are not things I enjoy. So I had an EXPERT do them for me. Except for Sarah Sarbacker, those things are not fretting and chasing - they are thoughtfully planning and cheerfully contacting. Thinking about the BIG DAY, I did NOT want to be the one in charge. I wanted to enjoy and relax with my family and friends. And I forsaw the difficulty with a family member being in charge of all the details. That person wouldn't get to enjoy the day! Unless they were a regular bossy-pants, in which case I would not enjoy taking direction from them in the first place. Let me also tell you this: 15 minutes before our outdoor ceremony, clouds were gathering and the wind started to blow. Sarah happily and confidently crawled into the back of our car (where my MOH and I were staying warm) and asked to start the event a few minutes early because the clouds were threatening-looking. Oh a more pleasant woman I couldn't have heard this from! She even took a few minutes to tell a funny personal story and get my mind off THE WALK DOWN THE AISLE. She was a sea of calm. She projected absolute certainty and helpfulness. She does not dominate - she takes direction from what you suggest. She is a wedding FACILITATOR. I believe she is truly gifted in dealing with all different sorts of people, and yet she has a perfectionistic tendency (to get the chairs just right, to get the table centerpieces just right, etc...). She is polite, cheerful, and nothing seems to throw her for a loop. It was a perfect day. And Sarah Sarbacker was a huge part of making it so.

Literally can't say enough amazing things about Andrea!! She is truly the absolute best! Our…read morewedding would never have happened without her. I decided I wanted to get married on our family farm, a daunting task that she truly brought to life. She thought of every little detail (needed a generator, bathroom trailer, lights, mosquito treatment, valet, etc) and was extremely organized and thorough. She laid out a very easy to follow timeline, checked in each month with the tasks to focus on every month, gave suggestions of professional experienced vendors, but was also willing to go way outside anything she had done before and find new options. For example we wanted really adventurous food with a mix of thai/peruvian/mediterranean/vietnamese/indian and somehow she found the perfect caterer who could make it happen. Andrea is simply the best and you will be lucky to have her, I thank my lucky stars she was available on the date we wanted. She is worth way more than she charges. I cannot recommend her more highly.

Blue Fancy (BF), unfortunately, did not meet our expectations. I don't think it's necessary to go…read moreinto detail listing all of the things that went poorly, and I, of course, want to give them credit for the things that did go well. Context: we are both from Wisconsin, but are currently living out of state with stressful, time-consuming jobs, which is why we wanted to hire a planner. Our budget was lower than what I'm guessing BF is typically used to working with (less than $60,000), so I'm not sure if that was a factor. We got married in Fond du Lac and most of BF's contacts/experience is in the Milwaukee area. We had a backyard wedding at our family members' homes (a small ceremony at one location and a larger reception at a second location) over a holiday weekend. We hired BF 1.5 years prior to our wedding date leaving plenty of time. Pros: -BF was very helpful with providing structure (a to-do list, timeline) and recommending vendors. -They were insightful when finalizing the rental company contract in terms of backyard wedding details that we would not have thought of. For example, generator needs, water hookups, etc. -Day of set-up. They provided us with 3 team members, which was incredibly helpful with setting up chairs, tables, a few decorations, etc. Cons: -All together, we had a total of 3 planners. Our first planner quit and our second planner had to take a step back due to a serious personal matter. This resulted in poor communication, confusion, and stress. It was often unclear who was taking lead on what and we felt the team did not have the bandwidth to actually manage our wedding. We constantly felt like we had to double-check everything and take care of things ourselves because it was unclear who was doing what and we did not want things to fall through the cracks. Despite this, things did fall through the cracks. For example, we did not finalize our catering contract until 1 month prior to the wedding, which ended up being $8,000 more than we originally agreed because we had no other choice. Additionally, the band that BF recommended pulled out 6 weeks prior our wedding. This was not their fault and they found a replacement within one week, but this was still stressful . -They seemed to take a 'copy and paste' approach as in they just replicated what they did for previous weddings instead of really listening to what was truly important to us. More of a you fit us instead of we fit you. For example, although they provided recommendations for vendors, we ended up having to find some on our own because their recommendations did not align with our preferences/budget. Examples: photographer, videographer, and hair & make-up team. When we mentioned wanting a videographer within a certain budget, we were told this was unrealistic and received no help. We did find a videographer within our budget and he did a great job! So happy we found him. -Poor attention to detail. This was pretty concerning and prevalent throughout the process. A couple of examples: (1) they neglected trash removal and only had solutions for the Milwaukee area when we brought it to their attention. We ended up coming up with a creative solution on our own; (2) at the rehearsal dinner, the lead planner did not know the location of where to tell the hair and make-up team to go the following morning (day of). In sum, we're hoping our experience was abnormal. Nonetheless, we never received an apology, acknowledgment, or a thank you for using their service or any sort of contact after the wedding, which we find unprofessional. We were extremely sympathetic to the series of events that were out of their control, but ultimately, the way it was handled was subpar and the planning process/day of execution was stressful. We wish them the best and hope things are improving.
