    The little pigs are so cute

    Booked this petting zoo weekend activity at a nursing home today Sunday. Sarah and Jose are the best they came on time set up quick and they were friendly with the seniors & staff. Sarah was so sweet telling us all the pet names. She cleaned up after the animals. The whole two hours the animals were interacting and you can feed them which is such a cute and fun thing to do. The animals are well kept clean and it doesn't smell like a barn. We had a great time and we would definitely recommend booking them. Also they respond quick and overall great team!

    John was friendly and patient with me in getting me set up for the petting zoo. He was very responsive and even accommodated my request for a piglet the last minute. He showed up half hr before the scheduled time to set up. The animals were sooooo utterly cute and clean. The petting zoo was a big hit at my daughter's 9th birthday party and John made it happen for me. He was patient with the kids, and the kids were ecstatic and had a blast! If you're looking for a petting zoo to wow your party, I recommend them! Will definitely book again!

    This review is long overdue! Marshmallow and Kezz helped make my daughter's 4th birthday party so special! We were throwing a Bluey themed birthday party and had to have "Buttermilk" there (from the Markets episode). It was a blast!! All the kids loved having rides around the backyard and we got to take some amazing pictures!! If anyone is considering a pony / animal party.... As the host, be aware of heat and cold conditions.... Be sure to ask what their animals need and provide enough shade and water for the animals. We got a bale of alfalfa from the local feed store and donated it to Marshmallow when it was time for him to go. The hay was cool because the kids fed him a little bit and gave us a place for people to sit for pictures. The whole day was amazing! Thank you Kezz and Marshmallow for a memorable party!

    We love these guys so much that we've had TWO parties with them! The first one was my daughter's 3rd birthday and our second one was my son's 7th. They are punctual, nice, and the animals are so cute and happy! One of our favorite parts was the chicken who liked to sit on the pot belly pig. Such wonderful memories for our kids!!

    If you're a parent looking at options- this one is amazing bc they 1) take a reservation deposit so you're sure it's confirmed 2) bring their own tent for shade 3) bring food for the animals 4) kids are allowed to hold bunnies and feed animals. Not all companies do this! Fiar pricing. Prompt. Animals seem healthy and happy. Easy decision- we'd hire again!

    The owner and his assistant was very nice. I hired them for our 3 year old toddler's birthday party. They arrived on time and placed the animals. The animals were friendly, clean and so adorable. The communication was excellent throughout the entire process. I'm happy that I found them.

    Some of the beautiful cute animals from PonyParty4Kids!

    Phenomenal customer service, great selection of animals and John, the owner was punctual and kind with the children. We will definitely be hiring PonyParty4Kids again!!! Thanks John

    We loved our petting zoo experience! Baconator the pig was a great hit! Super friendly and communicative. The bunnies were so soft and cuddly Will definitely do it again and get a pony next time.

    Amazing!! Best mobile petting zoo, I'm so thankful I found this place. The animals were adorable, the booking was easy, great price and they even arrived earlier to set up and brought a fence and canopy in case of rain. The staff was very nice and the kids loved it. Thank you for making my son's birthday extra special! I can't wait to use this company again.

    The email I sent to the owner regarding the incident.

    TWO bunnies died during the party. One appeared to be sat on and injured by the pig. This bunny was not removed and ended up dying, most likely from overheating. The second bunny tried to escape (probably as it knew it was going to die from heat stroke), got its head stuck in the fence, then injured itself trying to get out. The bunny screamed very loudly and some of the guests were very upset. The younger attendant was super friendly and truly seemed to care about the animals. He was constantly trying to cool down the animals and keep them comfortable. I'm not sure why they didn't have a canopy or anything for shade. If it wasn't for the two dead bunnies, one of which we had to sit and literally watch die, this would have been a fantastic experience. The attendants commented that they have hundreds of bunnies at the farm. Clearly, two dead bunnies means nothing to this company. With so many traveling petting zoos available for about the same price, I'd seriously recommend going elsewhere until the owner demonstrates he understands how to care for his animals.

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.

I try to observe how they work with their employees and other vendors rather than watch the reaction from clients. I always think happy employees lead to very happy customers. In this case every team member worked well together even in the stress of the event as their was a definite time crunch because of strict venue rules. Everyone was supportive of each other and the results were supreme attention to detail and ecstatic customer/guest reaction.

Being that our company name is called Gatsby Chocolate, I thought it would be perfect to have a Gatsby-themed party, and Unforgettable Events completely delivered. Every single detail from our logo being projected onto the floor, to our logo on the bar, to our personalized name plates, was absolutely exquisite. Tashianna and her team are SO detail-oriented, and that's something I truly appreciate. They thought of everything. The entire event looked so gorgeous. The color palette was exactly what I was imagining, and everything exceeded my expectations. Working with Tashianna was SO easy. She was super communicative, and if a problem arose, she handled it gracefully. She kept me calm/sane during the whole process. Originally, I was supposed to plan this holiday party by myself, but a couple weeks into it, I realized I needed professional party-planning help, so that's when we hired Unforgettable Events. Tashianna picked up right where I left off, and alleviated so much stress. She communicated with all the vendors, had a schedule for the day of, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We truly couldn't have pulled this off without her and her team. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and I would hire her again in a heartbeat. She worked with our budget and found budget-friendly solutions that still looked high-end and luxurious. If you're thinking about hiring Unforgettable Events for a special event, just DO IT. You won't regret it. They're truly amazing, and your event really will be unforgettable.

    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.

We needed to rent tables, chairs, and 2 different size pipe & drapes for our tea ceremony. I called the company on July 12 because their website was a little confusing. I didn't know where to write what size pipe and drape we wanted. The person who answered the phone just said "Hello?" so I wasn't sure if I was calling the right place at first. I asked if it was One Call Events, and they said yes. I asked my question, and they told me to request a quote via email. I wrote out and sent the email to them immediately after I hung up with them. I provided links to the items I wanted to rent along with how many of each, as well as measurements for the pipe & drapes I wanted. I also provided the date of delivery, date of the event, and date of pickup. I didn't hear back, so I called them one week later on July 19. The woman who answered said she had read my email and would reply with a quote in the next one to two days. I waited, and still no reply. I finally sent another email on July 24 to follow up on my quote request. I received a reply back exactly 30 minutes later asking for the delivery/pickup dates that I needed (I had included it in the original email) and if we needed linens as well. I wrote back to let them know the delivery/pickup dates and that we do not need linens. I did receive a response to my email. I finally called once again on 7/26 and spoke to a woman who remembered my name and my email, and she pulled it up while I was on the phone. She told me that they were out of the white chiavari chairs and only had gold & clear left. I said clear chairs. Shortly after I finally received the quote. It only took 2 weeks, 3 phone calls, and 2 emails. I might have gone with this rental company, however based on how unprofessional they were when I was only requesting a quote, I took my business elsewhere. How can I trust them to actually show up and deliver the rented items if they can't even get me a quote without me calling and emailing them multiple times? The company I went with literally responded the very next day after I requested a quote, and even called me beforehand to double check some of the details regarding the dimensions of the pipe & drapes. Not only that, they had the chairs I wanted: SILVER chiavari chairs!! I didn't want white, I only settled because One Call Events doesn't carry silver. AND the other company is cheaper by about $258. Bottom line, DON'T GO WITH ONE CALL EVENTS!!

From the very first point of contact with 1024 when getting a quote to literally the seconds before my bouquet toss when Trey found my flowers and handed them to me himself, the folks at 1024 were professional, responsive (even responding late on a Saturday night in the lead up to the big day!), highly organized and energetic. You can tell they care, and they are committed to being the very best. I even found out from my wedding venue that Trey scoped out the scene the day before! And, most importantly, the actual music itself was amazing - guests never left the dance floor and there was never a lull in the music or atmosphere, and never a bad pick. Trey was able to read the crowd and keep the party going. I actually had guests approach me in the days after the wedding asking for 1024's contact info for their own events, so be expecting an email! Plus, the price was completely on par with other DJs in the area (and I got a lot of quotes). Don't underestimate the importance of music at your wedding. Hire these guys and you'll be so happy you did. Thank you, Trey and 1024!

    If You Care About Your Wedding Day, I Recommend Looking Elsewhere…read more I don't write negative reviews lightly, but if sharing our experience helps another couple avoid what we went through, it's worth it. We hired this company over two years before our wedding and worked directly with DJ Mike the entire time. During those two years, we met with him, planned our reception, discussed every detail of our timeline, and were repeatedly assured that he would be our DJ and MC. He emphasized that, as our MC, his job was to keep the reception running smoothly so we could simply enjoy our wedding day. The company had us use their planning app, where I spent countless hours entering every detail of our reception--from announcements and pronunciations to specific songs timed down to the exact second they were supposed to play. I trusted that all of that planning would ensure our wedding ran seamlessly. Then, about a week before our wedding, Mike essentially stopped communicating with us. It wasn't until our hired coordinator contacted the owner just two days before the wedding that we learned Mike would no longer be our DJ. We were never proactively informed. My husband eventually received a message from Mike stating that he had been reassigned to a corporate event. After two years of building a relationship and planning our wedding with him, we were simply replaced at the last minute. We were assured Javier would take over and that he was "great." Unfortunately, that was not our experience. Nearly every major musical moment during our reception was wrong. My husband's processional song was incorrect. Our first dance was incorrect. My father-daughter dance was incorrect. The mother-son dance was incorrect. We had to stop our own wedding reception multiple times to correct the DJ. Think about that for a moment. A bride and groom should never have to interrupt their own wedding to fix mistakes that should have been prevented through preparation. The most frustrating part is that every one of these songs had already been entered into the company's planning app months in advance. Instead of using the detailed timeline we spent two years creating, Javier appeared to be working from a handwritten sheet of paper covered in scribbled notes. It left us asking one simple question: What was the purpose of the planning app if none of the information was actually being used? The mistakes didn't stop with the music. Despite confirming pronunciations with both us and our coordinator, names were still announced incorrectly. What makes this especially heartbreaking is that my husband's parents both have Alzheimer's dementia. This was likely one of the last major family celebrations they'll remember. Moments that should have been joyful and unforgettable were interrupted by confusion, corrections, and preventable mistakes. Those memories cannot be recreated. After the wedding, we contacted the owner, Monique, hoping for accountability and, at the very least, some empathy. Instead, we received what felt like a dismissive response. We were told she had conducted a "review" which concluded everything went well minus two songs. Our experience as the bride and groom was effectively minimized. We were also told that our coordinator wasn't present for the entire reception--as though that somehow explained what happened. Yet we specifically hired a DJ who assured us he would also serve as the MC and keep the reception on track. That responsibility didn't disappear because our coordinator stepped away. Mistakes can happen. What defines a business is how it responds when they do. Unfortunately, what disappointed us most wasn't just the last-minute DJ change or the repeated mistakes throughout our reception. It was the complete lack of ownership afterward. We were left feeling unheard, dismissed, and blamed for problems that should never have occurred. Your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event. You don't get a second chance at your first dance, your parents' dances, or the memories made that night.
