After speaking with several wedding planners in Key West, I decided to go with Nika for our wedding…read moreplanning services and am so happy I did. From the start, Nika was very responsive and easy to work with. She understood our needs, and helped us bring our vision to life. She brought a sense of calm and a grounded perspective to our wedding planning. We got married at the Audubon House, and Nika was very knowledgeable about the venue, any nuances, as well as the Key West wedding landscape as a whole. Nika was genuine, honest, reliable, and a true pleasure to work with. I would absolutely recommend her services to anyone looking for a right-hand man on their wedding journey in Key West!

Nika did everything she could and not only booked us a new venue but provided more than j could ever imagine. i would've not survived thag week without her and our vendors and I am so thankful. it was the best day of our lives.

After a year of trying to plan my wedding by myself, I was quite literally in tears because I did…read morenot have the time or experience to plan a wedding. My husband and I were paying for everything without any help, and it was nerve-wracking building spreadsheets and watching costs rise. I finally gave up and looked for a package company. Then we found Say Yes in Key West, and I thank goodness! From the moment I called them for the first time, all my stress and worry melted away. They took care of *every single detail* for a beautiful wedding with all the touches that made the special day I've always dreamed of even more amazing! We ordered the Hawaiian Paradise package for $3,000 with a ceremony at Fort Zachary Taylor State Park's R2 location. This particular location had an extra fee of $500, but it was absolutely worth it. This location is a beautiful swath of beach, gorgeous rocks, tropical foliage, and the beach faces the sunset perfectly. It is STUNNING, especially when the sun is setting. I couldn't have imagined a more romantic place to be married! They managed the difficult steps of the ceremony setup and breakdown, ensuring that all the vendors arrived on time, and I didn't have to worry about a thing! They handled the arbor, decorations, flowers, chairs, chair decorations, officiant, musician, photography, wedding cake, a beautiful sign made by a local artist, a ginger ale toast, transportation to and from the ceremony, and more. It seemed like an endless list, and they managed everything perfectly! The florals were absolutely exquisite! Say Yes had Karro Florals provide the flowers, and they were the most beautiful flowers I've ever seen in my life! I was so worried they wouldn't be premium flowers, but WOW, they were stunning! They included so many floral arrangements, and draped the flowers and beautiful fabrics over a gorgeous bamboo canopy on the beach. It was SO PRETTY! They had the cake delivered directly to our reception at the Rooftop Cafe, and it tasted so amazing, everyone loved it! We ordered a two-tier cake so we could keep the top for our anniversary. Say Yes handled all the details and served as the middle man for all my requests, and throughout every stage of the planning, they never made me feel bad for being particular about something or trying to save money. They really made it so easy, and it was the most absolutely incredible dream wedding! Just like a fairy tale! I definitely recommend them, you will not regret it!

Out of all the wedding planners we interviewed, Nancy and Say Yes team offered us the greatest value. The best price, most honest answers, thorough knowledge and great connections in the area.

Willing to work with our evolving tastes and decisions. Most of all, incredibly honest, hard-working and kind.

Dont expect to be back here. Also meat lovers, this isnt a place for you and you will be made to feel awkward as we felt yesterday at breakfast.

I cannot say enough about how amazing Bernadette McCall and her husband John were as my…read morephotographers AND as my Day of Service Planner was for my wedding day. The combination was out of this world. As an out-of-town bride, I was very nervous. I personally have never been to Key West and prior to connecting with Bernadette, I had to rely on photos and online reviews to aid me in my wedding planning. As soon as I spoke to Bernadette on the phone, I knew I struck gold. She helped put my nerves at ease and shared such great ideas and perspectives that made me more and more confident with each wedding decision I made - even though I was over 1,400 miles away. From day number one Bernadette, walked me through the planning process to help ensure I was on track with my planning. We touched based ever couple weeks by phone and multiple times a week via email. She answered all of my questions timely and ALWAYS had photos she sent to give me a visual. Bernadette knows Key West very well and her eye for design and her ability to interpret the light has made for the most breathtaking photos and décor. Bernadette is so friendly and thoughtful. So much care and attention to detail went into each and every moment of the night. Bernadette knew I was on a tight budget but still was able to give me such elegance and glam. Bernadette took the time to get to know me and what I needed and was easily able to adapt to ensure that I was comfortable and happy. Every expectation that I ever imagined for my special day was far beyond exceeded. It has been a few weeks since the wedding and my husband, his family, and my family, are still raving about how flawless the day was and how amazing the photos turned out. I just can't say enough. I still think back over all the moments and am so beyond happy.

We would highly recommend working with Bernadette and Family Affair! We planned our destination…read morewedding in Key West from a long distance and needed more suggestions and support than most. From our first call, we had a ton of amazing suggestions to think about and it only took a few detailed conversations to get ourselves to a fully formed, personalized plan for us! Day of was incredibly smooth - we barely had to think about anything (yet still felt like we had the day to enjoy with our family and friends)! The decor looked fantastic and the team already had a great relationship with our venue (First Flight) so everything was so seamless. Bernadette's recommended vendors all delivered (flowers, officiant, photographer) and her team of assistants (particularly Jenna and Irisha) were incredible support throughout the day. Very grateful to this group for making our special day so enjoyable and gorgeous!

I was lucky enough to find Eric for our 110 person wedding in North Georgia. I am so, so happy that…read moreI did because Eric was THE most important person at the wedding (other than my groom of course!) Eric came to the wedding with his working shoes on - he was incredibly engaged and ahead of schedule the entire day. Instead of coming to me with questions as I was getting ready, he came to me with solutions and updated me on the process of his work. Not only did he act as our day-of-coordinator, he also acted as our florist last minute! I had put my mother in charge of arranging our DIY florals from Costco, and Eric immediately saw that the situation required a professional hand. He arranged everything in the most beautiful way, and we received compliments on the flowers and greenery all night. My only regret with working with Eric, as I told him, is that I didn't hire him for the entire wedding weekend! I can't recommend him enough - THANK YOU Eric!!

Working with Eric was by far the worst and most stressful part of our wedding experience. Far from…read morealleviating our troubles and making our lives easier, it became apparent the more we worked with him that he didn't have a high level of attention to detail, dropped the ball on a number of things, and simply wasn't executing at close to a high level to help us "plan" our wedding. Eric only had a few key responsibilities: (a) day of coordination and (b) sourcing a handful of vendors (hair/ makeup, videographer, DJ, and florals) -- we planned everything else ourselves.  Despite this slim list of responsibilities, Eric was unreliable, not proactive, and unapologetic: 1. After taking our full deposit for the hair and make up stylist, Eric failed to follow through on the contract and never booked the stylist. We found this out two months later, right before our supposed trial appointment (for which we had to fly in out of state) when we reached out to the stylist directly and learned that Eric had never followed through on the booking. There was no apology and we were left scrambling to book the stylist ourselves. Thankfully, she was still available on our wedding day but we couldn't believe that Eric failed to book her after taking our deposit. 2. Eric failed to properly coordinate audio during the day of our wedding. First, he failed to tell the DJ to set up a speaker outside for our ceremony and, even worse, he failed to inform our videographer that a string quartet was to perform at our ceremony. Accordingly, our videographer did not bring any mics for the quartet and we have learned after the fact that none of the audio of their beautiful performance was captured.  Eric's response to this was to have us ask the quartet to re-record their entire performance -- which we found to be unhelpful and completely unacceptable. 3. Eric's idea of preparing vendors was to circulate a "day of" itinerary -- and little else. This left our photographers and string quartet emailing us for details in the lead up to the wedding. He also failed to provide us and our hotel with the names / contacts of the shuttle bus drivers for the wedding day, leaving us and all our guests in the dark about when transportation would arrive. Hiring Eric as our wedding planner is the largest and only regret we have during our entire wedding process. We hope other couples look elsewhere for their wedding planning and coordinating needs (or just plan it on your own).
