I also had a similar experience with another reviewer here on valentine's day…read more They seemed understaffed and they only had one server for the entire second half of the restaurant it seemed. I felt bad for him since it seemed like he was trying. The kitchen was also pretty understaffed since it took an hour for our food to come out. We ordered pretty simple pasta dishes too. We made reservations as well so it seems like management just didn't account for how much staffing they actually needed.

I had such a wonderful experience working with The Simple Luxe for my son's first birthday party…read morethat was farmers market themed! From start to finish they were incredibly easy to communicate with- responsive, attentive, and truly listened to what I wanted. Lisa and her team brought my vision to life, and it was even better than I imagined. What really stood out was their willingness to work within our budget without compromising on quality or creativity. They not only designed and set up all the balloons, backdrops, installations but they also spent extra time helping me decorate and design the farmers market with the custom gifts I made and/or purchased for my guests. The entire process felt stress-free and enjoyable. Everything turned out beautifully and we received so many compliments. I am truly honored to be The Simple Luxe's first farmers market themed client and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and kind vendor who goes above and beyond. If you have been following them on social media like I was and have an upcoming event - reach out to them and get a quote! You will not be disappointed!

Ann and her team made our wedding day go so smoothly and took such great care of us throughout the…read moreentire process. Ann was there as soon as my hair and makeup were finished and paid attention to every little detail. She noticed a few sparse spots in the front of my updo and immediately checked if I wanted them filled in so my hair would look fuller. She and her team also helped touch up my makeup throughout the day. After all the crying, one of my lashes was barely hanging on, but they were prepared and made sure everything stayed in place. Our wedding happened to be during the World Cup, and since we're both Norwegian-Vietnamese, we wanted to make our grand entrance wearing our Norway jerseys. Ann fully embraced our vision and even brought small Norwegian flags and Norwegian flag garlands for our wedding party. It made for such an epic and memorable entrance, and we loved it! Ann is kind, professional, and incredibly attentive. We felt so calm and stress-free knowing she was there taking care of everything, allowing us to truly enjoy our wedding day. Our friends and family absolutely loved her and her team as well. They kept telling us how amazing she was and how she always had a smile on her face throughout the entire day. We are so grateful for Ann and her team and honestly couldn't have done it without them.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Ann and her team. Hiring Ann was, without a doubt, one…read moreof the best decisions we made for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Ann was incredibly organized and detail-oriented. She held planning meetings with us weeks out to review and refine our timeline, kept every vendor in the loop with tentative and final timelines, coordinated certificates of insurance, venue layouts, and vendor agreements across our entire team, which included our photographer, content creator, florist, DJ, photo booth, hair and makeup, Korean paebaek ceremony team, and more. She even caught a last-minute detail in our paebaek timeline and proactively followed up with the paebaek vendor to make sure the ceremony flow and music were perfectly aligned. No detail slipped through the cracks. On the day of, Ann and her team handled all the setup and kept everything moving. This was especially impressive because our venue had a couple of hiccups, including being delayed on the venue turn and falling behind on meal service, but Ann calmly and quickly made the necessary adjustments to keep us on schedule. We barely noticed any of these issues as they were happening, which speaks volumes about how proactively she managed things behind the scenes. She truly absorbed those stressors so we didn't have to. Ann always kept us in the loop while simultaneously shielding us from the chaos that inevitably comes with a big wedding day. She was a steady, calming presence, and her communication throughout the entire planning process gave us so much peace of mind. If you're looking for a wedding planner who is thorough, responsive, professional, and genuinely cares about your day going beautifully even when things don't go perfectly, look no further than Ann. She went above and beyond for us, and we are so grateful she was part of our wedding. Thank you, Ann!

This review is for Suhainah and the BEL team who helped us organize our wedding reception…read more The day of our event, Suhainah and a group of 4-5 other women went above and beyond to make sure our wedding reception went smoothly. They coordinated with all vendors well, directed guests and made the experience stress free. Everyone was so sweet to us and our dog, Rocky. We brought Rocky to our party and they made sure she was taken care of the entire time. It was so thoughtful. Rocky says the team gets 5 stars!

Horrible experience, stay away!…read more This is a review for Eliza at BEL Events for her wedding planning services. We met Eliza at our venue 8 month before our wedding date. During the first session she presented herself well, and she talked and bragged a lot about her 18 yrs of experience in event planning and stories about how she handles wedding situations. So, we thought she is the right event planner for us and signed a contract. After signing the contract and making the payment, she was very hard to find and we did not see the expected action from her side, and every time we followed up, her response was: "don't worry I will manage everything before the wedding day". We were asking for the basics of planning such as timeline, vendor recommendations (a few to choose from) and communications (which was part of the contract) but not no action except a quote of her own rental service. We were getting closer to the wedding date and her lack of action made us so worried and very frustrated. Eventually we had to get involved and did almost 90% of the work ourselves. She was very hard to find but even when we could talk to her, she would create more unnecessary problems to an extant that my wife had panic attacks after a few meetings we had with her. 2 month before our wedding she caused so much anxiety and frustration that we decided to end our contract with her and find another planner. Thankfully, our new planner was amazing and our Wedding planning went very smooth after that, and the event was as wonderful as we could imagine! With way lower cost than what Eliza had proposed! After I requested to cancel the contract she disappeared and never responded to our emails, which is very unprofessional. Here is a list of a few issues from our experience of working with here: 1- Accessibility: every time we had a question or needed to talk to her, it was taking several days until she gets back to us. With irrelevant excuses, like she would show me her busy google calendar! 2- Push to use her own services as vendors: Per her contract she had to suggest different vendors so we can choose. But since she has rental and flower services, she was arguing so much to stop us from even looking at other options! She charges unnecessarily expensive! By doing a little research, we found our vendors and saved at least 50% with same or better quality! 3- Nonsense arguments and rude attitude: In many occasions she was just insisting on holding the event the way SHE wants, without paying attention to our request or desire. Every time we requested something, her answer was: "I don't want MY event to be that way or I don't want MY guests to be that way"!!! With a condescending attitude emphasizing that "I have 18 yrs of experience and I know what to do"!!! Any simple request would become a long story and unnecessary argument. In one occasion my wife requested that guests throw flower petals while walking out of aisle, and she immediately said: "No!, you can't do that, I don't want my cleaning crew spend time on cleaning the petals"!!!! In another occasion Eliza was insisting on only using her recommended valet service (which was quoting more than double the price of the service we eventually used) and on top of it she was forcing us to rent extra parking lot out of venue and pay extra for shuttle service!!!! While the venue had enough capacity! And when I respectfully said: I am confident that the venue has enough capacity for parking, she got very angry and said: "in that case tell all your guests to use UBER and they can't drive their own car"!!! It was a nightmare working with BEL Events and I don't recommend her service due to lack of professionalism and decency in her business.

It turned out even better than I could have imagined. Planning a party can be overwhelming especially with my son's theme being a bit challenging but Jamie was able to help make it happen in just a few weeks. She was incredibly organized, attentive, creative, and always willing to help with every detail. The party was a success! She's very experienced in party planning and works closely with many vendors she can refer you or recommend. All my guests had a great time but most importantly the kids had so much fun. I honestly could not have done it without all her help. Her dedication, professionalism, and genuine care made all the difference. I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to host a special event. I like that they have the outside patio great for food vendors and extra space for additional seating. If you're considering having a party here, you will be in good hands. Thank you, Jamie and your team at Xo Event Space for making my son's birthday so memorable!

Our family recently celebrated our son's HS graduation party at XO Lounge. We had a wonderful…read morebeginning-to-end experience that included incredibly responsive, thorough, and professional communication with Jamie--the main contact in charge of booking, planning, and operational oversight. On the day of the event, Hope, Hai, Lola (bartender) and the remaining staff were unbelievably helpful, accommodating--and integral to our efficient set-up and smooth execution of a successful celebration. XO Lounge is a very posh venue with modern décor. The nightclub vibe and setup provided the core foundation--that minimized decorative needs for our graduation-themed event. Our event hosted approximately 150 guests--that we comfortably housed in the smaller nightclub event area. Despite opting out of seated dining, our area easily accommodated our guests with the use of the booths and lounge-style sofa set-up for central-space seating. We still had surplus space leftover--that was allocated for the dance floor and bar area. The nightclub further opens into an enclosed courtyard--allowing for additional cocktail tables, bar stools, and lounge-roaming for our guests. Our party featured a standard photo-booth setup with an 8-ft props table--as well as a 360-spinning video-booth in the front entryway lobby area (just to the left of entrance). Our 360-video-booth included an inflatable enclosure--that successfully fit in the entryway alcove. Our rented XO Lounge space features a stage with a floor-to-ceiling TV-grid. This large multi-screen TV--along with dozens of TVs lining the entire room-walls--cycled a slideshow of our graduate's photos throughout the evening. XO Lounge further features a full PA system, DJ plug-ins for surround sound (you must provide your own DJ/music/equipment), full nightclub equipment (e.g. spinning disco-ball light machines, fog machines, laser strobing, etc.), full bar & bartender staff, etc. I LOOVED that XO included all the needed tables of various lengths and sizes--with fitted fabric *tablecloths* included. Fabric tablecloths may seem like a minimal feature, but fitted cloth coverings elevate a sophisticated aesthetic while alleviating the patron from the added costs for these supplies. Hope oversaw our function and was so attentive--always offering to help with literally *anything*--to reduce stress for the hosts (I really appreciated that!). The venue was surprisingly affordable--with a nominal outside-catering fee; the staff were professional and delightful; and the party space and outdoor-courtyard areas fit our guests, photo/video-booths, food vendors, Welcome table, Sweets table, and largescale Balloon Arch. XO Lounge features one-stop-shop booking and planning services for all party needs, (i.e. catering, decoration, DJ, photo-booth vendors, etc.)--though we did not partake of these additional offerings. Hosting an event on this scale is stressful (IYKYK), but this venue and staff minimized the stress and streamlined our experience for a fantastic celebration. Our family would definitely book with XO lounge again for future event planning needs--and would highly recommend to our friends, family, and others. Our guests had the BEST time; and we had a GREAT PARTY celebrating our newest grad!
