They truly brought our vision to life and made the entire setup feel so special and personalized. The quality of the backdrop was amazing--beautifully designed, vibrant, and the perfect focal point for the party. We received so many compliments from our guests, and it made for the most memorable photos. We had many changes throughout out party planning process which I felt really bad for but Lisa and her team were so easy to communicate with! They werepunctual, and clearly passionate about what they do. You can tell they genuinely care about making your event feel magical. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to elevate their event. Thank you for helping make our son's birthday so unforgettable!

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!

I had originally found a dance teacher through Groupon but the lesson was very random and didn't really have any choreography! So I was even MORE stressed after our first lesson as I felt I had learned nothing! I then assigned my fiancé to find a new dance teacher. Thankfully he found Elena who uses Lai lai dance studio which is walking distance from our apt in downtown Alhambra ! Her rates are the same as anywhere else (and she gives a discount if you buy a package of 3 or 5 etc) My fave thing about Elena is she immediately knew what we wanted. She listened to the song we chose thoroughly and asked us some questions to get to know us and she helped us choreograph a cute routine that went along with the song. Keep in mind we've only had one lesson but we've already learned about 1 min of our song!! Thankfully we want a short routine but she's really good at giving us ideas and getting our feedback about what we feel comfortable with and what we don't like so I really appreciate that!! She also doesn't pressure us to have a certain number of lessons. She understands that we're gonna busier as the wedding approaches! I really appreciated that. Anyways I would definitely recommend Elena to all my friends who need a dance teacher !! I'm excited for our second lesson!

TLDR: Improved technology, more modern look, still affordable…read more I had been meaning to check out this newly reopened bowling alley for a while now, so I'm glad I finally got to go! I'm not sure if it's being run by the same owner or if someone else took over, but the building looks much more modern now. It's a little bittersweet to see all the nostalgic pieces of my childhood gone, but it's hard to deny that it's for the best. Prices were still pretty affordable. The staff member let us know that there's a cheaper deal on weekdays, which is pretty normal for bowling alleys. There is clearly a lot more seating on the top floor. The addition of all the tables is really nice. I also noticed that they removed the extra TVs that used to either play ads or sports and stuff. They also got rid of all the pool tables that I never saw anyone use. The screens and control panels are all updated to this modern design too. Something else that was interesting was how the old bowling ball racks were moved to the side of the building to make room for bag hooks behind the people bowling. Although it's a good idea, it's kind of hard to watch your belongings when they're behind you like that, so it leaves your stuff kind of open for stealing. It's also easier to grab the bowling ball you need though because they're all in one place instead of spread across the whole building. The only thing that I kind of hate is the seating down by the alley. There's actually less seating down there with these standalone dining table sets replacing the old benches. Since our party arrived when there were many other people there, we only had one side of the lane while strangers were on the other side. It's just a little awkward to sit at a dining table with strangers like that. Not to mention, the seating arrangement left a lot of people standing and kind of made it hard to communicate with each other. In terms of bowling mechanics, I think the amount of time it takes for the bowling ball to return has been reduced significantly. I'm so glad we don't have to wait ages for the ball to return for the second throw! The machine also didn't seem to experience incorrect racking, which used to happen all the time here. Sadly, the screen does not tell you the mph your throw was at anymore. I always thought that was a very helpful feature, so it's a shame to see it go. Lastly, the floors seemed well cleaned and waxed. I didn't have to powder my shoes and felt like my bowling ball glided pretty smoothly down the alleyway. Overall, I think this bowling alley is nice. I'm glad to have an alley that's close to my house again!

The gentleman explained to us the pricing for bowling and it's reasonably priced considering that other places cost a bit more. Restrooms are well kept when I had gone. The only thing that was questionable were the shoes. It looked like they still used the shoes from the previous owner who managed the this location. Bowling balls are placed on opposite ends of each other when you go into the bowling area

The team consistently checked in with me throughout the planning process and they were so patient with me when I changed my mind 200 times. The day of the party was completely stress-free, so much that I forgot what beautiful details would be on display for my guests. When we arrived at the venue, we found everything in place, beautifully decorated. It meant so much to me that when I sent an idea to them, they always accepted it in addition to offering more ideas that would vamp up the vibe! I can't wait for my next party so I can work with these two again-highly recommend!!

We were planning a surprise 50th birthday for my brother-in-law at Steven's Steakhouse. The theme…read morewas black and silver and the venue was for 110 people. There was a stage that was the main focal area where both my brother-in-law welcomed and took pictures with his guests. The centerpieces were also balloon bouquets that doubled as "disco balls" when seen from afar. The whole ambience was causal elegance and looked stellar. Laura got there early (4:00 pm (on time!)) and was there at midnight to take everything down. She even threw in the big, lighted number 50 for free! She was thorough, polite, professional and creative. We got compliments from just about everybody who attended. I really don't have anything to compare her prices to, but we thought it was fair for the quality and service. Booking was quick and easy and she communicated before, during and after. We wanted balloon decorations, but she does all types of party decor. I'm sure we'll have more events that will need centerpieces or focal areas and Laura will be on our short list of party and event decorators.
