My fiance and I had gone back and forth on the idea of using a close friend or relative for our…read morewedding officiant but after having our wedding I am SO glad we decided to go with a professional and more importantly, Megan! She is detail oriented, professional, personable, authentic and has a wonderful personality. People kept telling me before the wedding that things will go wrong on the day of your wedding but Megan was not going to let that happen for the ceremony. When I arrived at the venue Megan had pulled me aside with concerns around the ceremony stage as our flowers were placed with little room left for my wedding dress train. She took control, consulted a friend and already had a solution in place to moved the arrangements around *THIS is what going above and beyond looks like and it doesn't stop there. The florist was waiting for the rest of the wedding party to arrive so they could place the boutonnieres and hand out the corsages but Megan could sense the florist was a bit overwhelmed and jumped right in taking charge letting the florist know it would be no hassle at all for her to take the flowers and pass out/pin herself. During our family portraits Megan had found my husband and I to deliver us our specialty cocktails (which were much needed at this point haha). There are so many other small details I am missing from the phone meetings, vow review beforehand, handling our very loud wedding party during rehearsal and before the wedding ceremony. As for the most important part of the day... the ceremony. The words she read really hit home when you are standing up there ready to say I do and she spoke with such grace it was absolutely beautiful. IF you are between officiants this is YOUR review telling you to book Megan. From the bottom of our hearts we thank you for being there for us in every way on our special day!

Wonderful experience from start to finish. Megan is extremely responsive, communicates well, and…read moremost importantly gets the job done tailored to each couple's unique needs. We had our main wedding ceremony out of state but mistakenly realized that we needed our marriage license completed by an officiant registered in state, and the courthouse ceremony process is time consuming (requiring an in person appearance to even make the appt, and then only offering times that are during a typical workday to conduct these ceremonies). Megan was able to perform our ceremony very efficiently knowing that we did not want a lengthy process (and were already wedded). We completed the entire condensed ceremony and papers hassle-free and in one sitting. She charges a really competitive price as well (the best I found after inquiring multiple officiants on Yelp). I would highly recommend her if you and your partner are stuck in a tricky situation like ours! Thank you Megan!!!

As a semi-retired DJ myself with over 45 years experience spinning in clubs and doing private gigs…read morelike weddings, reunions, corporate affairs, etc...I think I know a good professional DJ from an amateur. Brandon Stray is among the top tier in northeast Ohio and beyond! What makes him and his company stand out is their ability to custom tailor the entertainment package to YOU, just as the company name implies. The staff includes DJs who each have their own niche and will be matched to the style of your event from soft cocktail to classic disco to hard-rockin' to country-western to karaoke as well! Be careful of DJs who bring home speakers and inadequate sound gear and try to fill a room with clean audio. If something doesn't break, the distorted audio will leave you with a headache. AAYE uses only professional gear from companies like RCF, Electro-Voice, JBL, and others. And it goes beyond just music. To complete the atmosphere, Brandon has one of the largest light shows around, rivaling that of some major national acts. Or he can create an intimate mood just as easily from his huge inventory of lighting fixtures and effects. So if you don't want to worry about this critical aspect of your next event and really impress your guests, you need to talk to Brandon. He takes personal pride and attention no matter how large or small your need and will create not just an event but an experience! Take it from me because he does it just the way I would!

I wish I could give Brandon more than 5 stars. This experience was perfect. Even from months before…read morethe wedding, his client portal made it easy for us to select our songs. From mic'ing our string duo and officiant at the ceremony to providing excellent music and services at the reception, Brandon was amazing. Brandon's energy day of, made sure no one was sitting all night! He went above and beyond after finding out that the servers forgot to pour champagne at the tables for our toast and took it upon himself to grab some bottles and start pouring. He was very flexible when it came to changes in the time line and any request we may have had. Brandon made us feel like he wasn't just a vendor but a friend.

Heidi of Heidzillas was my day of coordinator for our wedding in May. Planning from out of town had…read moreit's challenging moments but having a resource tapped into the network of local vendors made things much easier. Heidi made sure the day ran smoothly and to our plan. She didn't try to alter our ideas and she appreciated our less traditional approach to some elements. The day of the wedding she effortlessly made sure all of the other vendors arrived on time and were set up properly. I can't recommend her enough. If you are looking for help planning your wedding you must call Heidi for full service or for day of coordination, you won't be disappointed.

As the planning proceeded, I realized how much I depended on Heidi for her expertise, advice, and wisdom. While this was my first wedding, she was experienced. She truly "understood" our (the parents' and the kids') visions and all our personalities and made everything seem manageable and possible. She gave us perspective and more importantly, made both the planning process and the wedding day memories to cherish. Heidi was amazingly organized, anticipated all our needs, worked well with all the vendors, and was to first to send us professional-looking photos of the venue and ceremony. She went beyond what most of my friends' planners had done. Heidi is the best! We look forward to our next daughter's wedding (whenever that may be) just so we can work together again!

Food was anywhere from warm to cool (no heaters on any of the dishes), they had a band that was playing the type of music you would expect at a wedding, none of the food was labeled and you couldn't tell most of it apart, children playing in the aisles between tables bumping into people and tables, coffee ($2.00) and pop ($3.00) were not included in the price of the tickets and had to be purchased seperately. We got there at 1:30 pm (it ran from 11:00am to 4:00pm) and they were already running out of deserts. Avoid this place and go to Bob Evans or someplace, don't waste your money here!

Jacki and Mioara tailored their services to our needs and helped guide us through our preparation and special day with such care. Although our wedding was much larger than their usual ceremonies (100 guests), they took us on in stride.

Jacki took the time to really get to know us and our relationship to create the most glorious ceremony. Mioara captured our day so perfectly with photos we will treasure all of our lives.
