She was a total professional to work with, and went above and beyond what I even expected (as it is clear she truly cares and is passionate about her job). I wanted an invitation suite that wowed my guests and set the tone for my amazing Napa wedding, and she certainly did that and more. Her artistic abilities are amazing, and I am so grateful she was a part of my experience. Thank you, Belinda!

Working with Belinda at Lucky Orchid Designs was one of the best decisions we made in planning our…read morewedding. From the get go, Belinda was an overall pleasure to work with. I had looked at invitation suites online and nothing really captured the vibe I was going for. She took our ideas and vision and truly brought them to life. The process was collaborative, iterative, and fun! Belinda was communicative and flexible the entire way through. Her design skills are impressive and everything she came up with was just gorgeous. We got multiple unsolicited comments from guests that it was the most beautiful invitation they had ever received. She took the stress out of planning and crafting many of the day-of stationary details as well. She went above and beyond. I would HIGHLY recommend Lucky Orchid Designs for custom stationary for your big day!!

This review is a year over due. We wanted a grand hanging floral centerpiece with a chandelier in…read morethe center but didn't expect it be so expensive. We narrowed down our search to a handful of florists then interviewed 3. The Wild Fleur was only 1 year old by the time we interviewed Marissa in September 2021 but it was her energy, passion, prompt response, & her ability to work with our budget that made us choose her. Marissa is such a kind-hearted soul who's really passionate about what she does. She was detailed-oriented and made sure that she provided every element that we wanted. She gave us great practical advice and was always upfront about everything. We ran into many issues (i.e. vase shipping delays) but she was able to work through all of them. She is also very proactive in coming up with a solution. For example, we wanted a draped backdrop with our neon sign along with some florals. The neon sign is heavy and can't be attached to the wall so we had to find a sturdy enough material to hang it on. Marissa offered to repaint her wooden frame to match our theme and/or rent a metal stand from a fellow florist. Although we found an alternative solution, she just goes above & beyond in any task or challenge that's brought to her attention. On the day of the wedding, we were a bit concern since we were given a tight window for set-up but Marissa & her team did an excellent job! When we walked through the doors and saw the hanging floral centerpiece, we were in awe. All the flowers from the table centerpieces to the sweetheart table were so beautiful & lush as well! The arrangements along with the pops of blue tulips were perfect for our winter wedding theme. Not only that, Marissa was so generous in providing us complimentary bud vases for our welcome table/seating chart area and even used the extra smilax around the staircase entrance. We cannot compliment, thank, or recommend Marissa enough!

Marissa is super friendly and she has a great scene of colors and knowledge of florals. We worked…read morevery nicely throughout the whole progress from generating the ideas, color palette, timeline, to finalized floral board. I love my florals on my wedding day! The flowers she used were what we had decided to use. She went with the types of flowers I love and not any other cheaper substitutions. We had 27 centerpieces and every single one was well designed and looked so gorgeous. Thank you Marissa, we definitely love your flowers and we had a great time working with you!!

I've always adored Melissa's work! My work as a balloon decorator has brought us together at many…read morebeautiful celebrations. Her designs are beyond fabulous and just sing! I don't know how to describe how pretty and striking they are. I've hired her a few times, my daughter's weddings, both her Civil Service and also the actual celebration a year later. The florals were GLORIOUS and i started to cry when they arrived. Honestly, they took my breath away! My guests were raving and spinning them around to admire each and every blossom. I also want to mention, because I've recommended her to many of my most discerning clients because the work is as I said, really beyond STUNNING! However, another perk is that Melissa is so lovley, warm and kind. From the first conversation you feel nurtured and pulled into her beautiful world. She understood our vision each time as if she could read our very thoughts. Every interaction left me feeling like she enjoyed and genuinely appreciated being a part of our family's celebration. I can't recommend her enough and I want to add that the splurge of ordering extraordinary floral design from Melissa is 1000% worth every single penny!

When I first made the decision to hire a professional organizer I reached out to the Organizer…read moreGuys. Steven wasn't able to take my job but referred me to Joy Perkins from Omnibus Organizing and I'm so glad he did! From our first interaction Joy was responsive and able to accommodate my hectic schedule. During our initial consultation I knew right away Joy was a person I wanted to work with. A former school teacher, Joy has the perfect mix of patience, cheerfulness and "let's get to it" attitude that put me at ease. If she has judgements, she keeps them to herself and makes the whole process feel fun. My project was a second bedroom that had turned into a bit of a junk closet and was no longer really usable on account of all the stuff I'd haphazardly thrown in there. Joy actively listened as I explained my work/life and hopes I had for my stuff and the room. Following the initial consultation she told me it would take a full day and that she'd bring two other helpers. By the end of that day I'd have my room back. I got that and a lot more. On the day of, my three organizing angels turned up with clear boxes, garbage bags and all the necessary supplies for serious organization. They set up a folding table in my living room and hauled everything out of the second bedroom. During this time I was not needed at all. That's one of the things I really loved about working with Joy: I could do my own work whilst she and her team set about to organizing and they'd simply call me in when they needed my input. I'd taken the day off thinking I would need to be much more of an active participant and since that wasn't the case, I had plenty of time to do laundry and take care of other household chores. The organizers finished the second bedroom faster than expected and moved on to organize my bathroom, pantry and bedroom closet. When there was still a little more time left they worked on a small part of the living room too. By the time they departed, I had a nearly empty second bedroom with a super organized closet finely tuned for my extensive travel and pernicious packing. Not to mention a better bathroom set up and a really good looking pantry that finally made sense. I also rediscovered many things that had been "hiding" in amongst my disorganization! It felt like Christmas at least three times that day. My household, as a result, is much more harmonious. Turns out, you get a lot more than organization when you hire a professional organizer as talented as Joy! I recommend Omnibus Organizing without reservation.

They did a remarkable job back then so when I needed a little fine tuning I didn't hesitate to call them back and they came this weekend.

This will be the best money you have ever spent!

Despina saved the day when my Lusona failed me ... I believe that's a theme among some of these…read morereviews. Lesson learned, but only 4 days before my wedding (!!) She was quick, confident, conveniently located at her home in Alamo, friendly, created a bustle when Lusona told me it was "impossible" ... I could go on. I literally took my dress directly from my final fitting at Lusona straight to her doorstep at 7pm at night. I only meant for her to add a bustle, but she was so appalled with their work that she fixed the neckline/straps for free as well. She told me she "couldn't" let me wear the dress as it was, which was true, it was basically in tatters with the sewn in cups already falling out. It's always nice to find a place that values quality workmanship, not just a profit these days. I'm honestly not sure what I would have done if I hadn't found her.

I found Despina through Clarissa's Bridal. She helped me the day I came and made me feel very…read morecomfortable, at the time I had some extra weight and had a bad experience at another shop so was not coming in with high hopes. Despina was very nice throughout the whole experience, and I really appreciated that she was protective of me as the bride, and what my opinion was of the dresses compared to those that came with me. I walked out of Clarissa's that day feeling great about my decision, for the most part due to her. Her experience proved valuable, as she did not try to put dresses on me that were not figure flattering. I also went to her for the minor alterations and bustle that I needed done. All of it was done to the standard I had hoped for at an affordable price. A few weeks before the wedding my mom noticed a little rip in the lace on the side of the dress when I was trying it on. She didn't tell me this to save me the anxiety, but she took it back to Despina and she fixed it in about 20 minutes without any problems at all.

Where do I even begin!…read more Enchanted forest theme for a teen milestone birthday and how does one pull that off!! I'm so grateful to have stumbled upon Tasha's business IG page Savvy Chic Events. What caught my eye was some of the adjectives her reviewers used were 'sweet', 'warm', 'kind', 'patient', 'dedicated'. How do you have all that while putting together an event when anything could go off at the very last moment I thought. I reached out to Savvy Chic Events via phone, a couple text messages and an email ensued. It took just a phone call to know how invested Tasha is in knowing YOU to understand what you are and what your likes or interests, your thoughts or ideas on your event are. As a parent I was involved to the extent of picking the right people to make sure this celebration was eventful! Tasha politely asked if she could speak with my teen and have my teen involved in the creative process. From understanding the theme to picking a venue, touring the venue a couple or more times, working with the vendors, color schemes, accents (the silver colored moon is a story by itself), the decor, the activities, the favor picks & it's display, music arrangements, the food & the signature drinks, creating custom menu, drink, dessert boards , making sure everything worked into the given budget, communicating back and forth between the texts, phone calls, emails - I mean many many times just to make sure you have a PERFECT magical experience! I have often joked around and said Tasha has a soothing voice- you can't really say no to. She is utterly patient, very very giving into the process, has the sweetest voice and the kindest heart. She gives it her ALL- it almost seems like it is HER event with all the running around, the working tirelessly behind the scenes, the numerous trips she makes to see places or to meet people. She builds this beautiful kinship between her and clients. It is not only the event but the onset or the prelude to the event that Savvy Chic makes it memorable.

We did meet with other flower vendors but none compared to what Renee could provide us. She is super nice and helped us a great deal with planning out our flowers, since my husband and I aren't so knowledgeable about flower arrangements. I am such an indecisive person myself (as a bride, not good!) so she was a great help during the planning process. On the day of the wedding, she dropped off the bouquets at my hotel suite and I was amazed because they were so beautiful! My bridal bouquet was exactly how I pictured it, and the bridesmaids flowers were great! The altar flowers were beautiful as well. She didn't just cover all of the flowers for us either...she also provided the chair covers at our reception for a great price! We're so glad we booked Renee for our flower needs. We definitely recommend you look into her services for your wedding! Thanks so much Renee for being a part of our special day!
