Freddy and I are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Bakari (Events of Amuse)…read more Bakari and his team were extremely professional and provided quality customer service. They went above and beyond the call of duty. Bakari definitely understood the assignment, it's because of Bakari that we had an extravagant wedding. The decorations & flowers were flawless, he was so much fun to work with, and everything was on point. Not to mention that our wedding date was on his Birthday. Bakari & (Events of Amuse) made us feel like a part of their family, and made sure my wedding was Magical!!! I wish I could give 10 stars Highly Recommended!!!!

I absolutely recommend coming to Mr Cohen. I'm in the military and I don't have a lot of off time…read moreto take care of business outside of work. Mr.Cohen was very professional and flexible with our limited time. I called him and he contact me back within 30 minutes or less. He even then agreed to meet up with me and my wife the same day for a short ceremony and then went as far as to give us a few minutes of marriage counseling. I truly appreciate him for taking the time out of his day to help us in such a short notice.

Of all the things that can…read morego crazy on your wedding day, these guys were cool, collected, and they made sure everyone had fun. They even played baby shark at the request of my flower girl and managed to get the entire room up and doing the dance! They have a photo booth which was another major hit. Patrick designed my own logo and they printed the pics on the spot for the guests! We had so much fun! They covered the ceremony music as well and I had very difficult requests! Without Amplified Events, my wedding could have been a disaster. But these guys saw when things were going awry and they jumped in to help and pulled it all together! *If only my photographer was as good as these guys were! However, they made up for it and then some! When they noticed he wasn't taking the right photos, they even helped take pics with their phones and sent them to me. They didn't have to, but Patrick and his team saved the day! Now, they're my ONLY choice for all of our events - both personal and professional!

Let's just say they will get you on the dance floor, whether its your groom's grandma or your boring boss, they will get them on the dance floor. If dancing is not your concern, the atmosphere and vibe will always be stress-free and entertaining as the DJs are excellent crowd pleasers for all ages. It is definitely a plus that they can add a photo booth and/or a game show to your package. I would not look any other way...check these guys out!

During Hurricane Helene, unfortunately, thousands of people in the community suffered power…read moreoutages. I rented from Augusta Special Events Tent and Party Rentals and was unable to pick-up the items I purchased. I paid for the rental in full. When I inquired about a refund, I was told that the full amount, not deposit, was forfeited. The male representative of the company, Dudley expressed zero concern which was very disappointing, especially while there are so many in the community who are helping each other get through this devastating time. This company lacks empathy. I of course will never do business with this company again. I hope there are other companies that can provide better service so no one else has to use their services either. If I could rate this company with a lower rating, I would. POOR Customer Service.

I would give the vendor a rating of 1 star. The fees for…read morethe rental furniture were fair and competitive but the behavior of the owner-manager was atrocious!! When I first visited the store on a Saturday morning I talked with the assistant [Tyler, a decent gentle man] and listed the items to be rented. I mentioned that we would like the furniture to be delivered on a Saturday morning and picked up on Sunday around midnight after the wedding reception. Tyler told me the weekend delivery and pickup charges would be higher than standard and he will let me know the exact cost after talking with the boss {Mr. Dudley] who was out that day. A few days later I went to the store to put in the deposit and met Mr. Dudley. I told him we may need the delivery an hour earlier [10 am] and pickup time may also be a bit later. Weeks later I called to make a few changes to the order and told the gentleman [named John with a friendly voice] who answered the phone that I was able to arrange with the wedding venue manager for furniture pickup on Monday morning instead of Sunday midnight. He put me on hold to talk to the manager/owner [Dudley] and then confirmed the reduced delivery fee and the revised bill. On Saturday, the day one of the event Mr. Dudley came to deliver goods on time [10 am] but made it very clear that he had to sacrifice some family business to accommodate the early delivery, and that the dismantling/ pickup has to be on Sunday night starting at 11 pm on the dot. I tried to tell him we already discussed the Monday pickup arrangement with his office and the time as well as the revised bill was agreed upon with his acquiescence per his office staff. He refused to listen and accused me of interrupting him and threatened to stop the delivery and call the police if I continue to talk to him. He became agitated, and in an abusive condescending style [with a distinct disdain and undertone of racism towards Asian Americans] told me he doesn't want to see or talk to me anymore. Later that evening during serving dinner our wedding planner and catering staff noticed that 100 pieces each of the forks and spoons ordered from ASE were not delivered and we had to rush to procure them from an alternate source. Mr. Dudley later claimed those were delivered and we just missed them [unverifiable to us]. His behavior the next day, the wedding and reception day, was more outrageous and atrocious! He showed up at the venue in the evening around 9 pm and told the event coordinator he would start dismantling the stage at 11 pm and must pick up all supplies and leave the place by 12 and we must make sure there's no delay in his schedule. When informed about this I immediately came out from the reception hall and told him the reception party would take at least till midnight to wrap up and asked for his cooperation and told him we would pay for the extra hours as stipulated in the contract. In a raised voice he demanded cash payments on the spot. We didn't have cash on hand and offered a check payment instead. He was in no mood to listen and called on the security guards at the premise [paid for by me] and demanded I go away and not talk to him anymore. Sensing his disruptive, arrogant, uncompromising attitude we decided to bring the ceremony to an early ending. We closed the bar and with an apology to the distinguished guests present [including the Honorable Ambassador and Consul General from a big friendly Asian country] proceeded to stop the music and the dance and allowed him to start the dismantling process. This extremely arrogant, abusive, and outrageous conduct that I was exposed to could not and should not go unchallenged. I was humiliated and intimidated in front of many folks in the venue [Savannah River Pavilion] during an ongoing wedding ceremony and reception. It was the most devastating, dehumanizing life experience I ever had in my 40 years of residency here in Augusta. I feel obligated to provide a factual review of my experience with ASE in public media and report to relevant business and government agencies for the benefit and awareness of future clients considering doing business with ASE. There are many competitive business outlets here that know how to treat customers with decency and respect and no one deserves to be humiliated and intimidated while receiving a service they are paying for. If this gentleman is incapable to change his awful, rude behavior towards customers he should retire or else the business would be destined for shutdown sooner or later.
