As a long time client, I can say Sara and her team are the best! She takes away the overwhelm I…read morealways feel when planning parties. She and her team were so helpful during our last party. Where I am normally running around filling people's drinks, refilling ice and cleaning up plates, I found I could really enjoy our guests and participate in the celebration. It's so worth it! Once you have their help, you won't want to try doing it without. We don't have to do it all ourselves! Thank you Sara!!

Sara and her team have helped me with several milestone themed parties over the years. For each…read moreevent, all elements for a well organized celebration were meticulously managed ie theme, menu, cocktails, mocktails, event timeline, set up, photography, live music performances, bartenders & food servers, to ensure that our plans were met. And, her special crew made the clean up (especially clearing plates) silently effortless, allowing us to continue enjoying our guests & not worry about the stressful details. A complete cleanup was handled with precision, too. All food put away, dishes washed and floors vacuumed. Merely heading to bed after the last guests left was made possible by this organized team. Overall, Sara cultivated a finished product that was beyond our expectations, delivering an amazingly unforgettable experience for our guests.

Just wanted to share about my experience with Rachel. If you've ever heard of the term "Swedish…read moreDeath Cleanse" then you know what I was going for. Basically, I'm tired of living in clutter. I want my house to be organized and that organization to be sustainable. I had not been able to figure out how to do that on my own, nor found anyone who could provide a system for me that I could live with. Rachel was able to not only help me get organized, but made me painfully aware that I had a lot more clutter than I knew. The best part about my experience with her service is that when she leaves you are equipped and motivated to keep going and you learn so much from her, but not only is your home left in a very livable organization, but you continue to use what you've learned even after your sessions end!

We worked together so i could make organized piles and donating items. Once she had my concept she did a lot on her own. We had fun together and she did a great job. We then did all my drawers and master closet and shoes. It was great getting this done. If you aren't a closer or cant donate a perfectly good sweat shirt that you haven't worn in 30 years. She can help de clutter and organize. I recommend.

We used Alexa for our most recent holiday through Europe and over all the experience was good. The…read moreprivate connections and greeters at the airport took all the headache out of travel. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 would be that I don't feel like the trip was very tailored to our interest. It would've been nice to have a call before the trip and go through the itinerary. This is mostly concerning the driving tours, while it is a nice idea to get a driving tour through a new city, it's not the most pleasant when you can not see any of the attractions you are learning about. I also feel like I had to be the one initiating the contact with Alexa, and then waiting (sometimes days) for a response. For the price paid I would've expected more catering to the client. My last concern would be that I canceled the second of our driving tours, 3 days prior for the reasons mentioned above, additional it was over 100 degrees and the tour was in a vitiate fiat, and the tour was not canceled. Wasting the driver and guides time. While Alexa's services did make our trip easier, in the future I would choose a more experienced travel agent who takes time to cater to clients wants and is more responsive.

Alexa is the ultimate secret weapon. She planned the ten day trip of a lifetime to Japan for my…read morehusband and I. Tokyo, Hakone, Kyōto and Osaka. We gave her a budget and she ran with it. She organized private transfers where it counted most, scored reservations at gorgeous hotels in the best neighborhoods, booked walking tours with really fun and interesting locals and selected the best seats on the Shinkansen for viewing Mt. Fuji. She was flexible with our specific requests and gave us some leisure time to explore on our own. The app she uses is massively helpful, and includes interesting and useful information, etiquette or otherwise, for traveling in specific countries. We felt so taken care of, and when our flights home hit a massive snag and delay due to weather, she immediately jumped into action to make sure we got home safely and efficiently. We are grateful to her for her expertise and professionalism, and would absolutely recommend her services if you're looking for a truly special and unique travel experience.

Marla and her team at i-deal-lifestyle are nothing short of miracle workers! I can't say enough…read moregreat things about my experience working with everyone. They have been professional, flexible, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. I received a follow-up from my inquiry very quickly, we met for an assessment, and it was to easy to handle the payment for their services. I was a bit anxious (haha, that's an understatement- I was freakin' out!) about letting people "see behind the curtain" but they made me feel incredibly at ease and didn't make me feel judged for years of clothing build-up and lack of organization. The best part was how self-sufficient and autonomous the team was, which made all the difference for me trying to juggle a demanding job and childcare, etc. The team will work with YOU to understand how you function in your space- and then make sure that whatever system is put in place supports your usual routine!! Here's the key: they do this so the work they do can be easily maintained going forward. This is an investment into your home, your wellness, your sanity, your relationship... and so much more! We're already booking I-deal-lifestyle for the next project - our Kitchen! My only regret is having not called them sooner. In the meantime, I will be diving into Marla's book, The Clutter Remedy, to be reminded of what I've learned so far, and to keep up my beautiful and organized space. I've only read the first chapter and I am already just so happy that I invested into myself. Thank you Marla + Team at I-deal-lifestyle!

(SINCE POSTING THIS REVIEW I HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS CALLS & TEXTS FROM MARLA THAT ARE HARASSING &…read moreTHREATENING, EVEN CALLING MY EMPLOYER) I used Marla and felt the job and talent was oversold. Marla is quick to brag about unrelated job credentials. I should of known then. I have used professional organizers before and was very happy. Never a problem! *Further, I am insulted buy her comments & insinuations after posting this review which are absurd and lame excuses. No one babysat my teenage son or my little girl! And for 30 hrs?! Really? This woman is nuts! Even one of her workers told me she was crazy!) My nanny and my other hired workers witnessed her poor service and commented on it every time. Yes, MY NANNY who was full time -child care for my daughter was always present- Not strangers I hired to unpack & organize my home. Absurd! The college girls chose to play with my daughter. It wasn't anything I asked for or preferred. I hired them for a specific job totally unrelated to my kids- what an insult to suggest otherwise. And, I did assist when asked- wasn't sickly or absent- just exhausted after this drama experience. *Based on Yelp reviews I decided to try Marla for a 2 bed, 1000 sq ft move into a 3 bed, 3 bath 1700 sq ft brand new, high-end gated community home 15 miles away. The job was to pack my home, move me into the new home, unpack and organize my new home so that I could be moved in quickly and not interrupt my work schedule. Marla assured me they were trained and could do this seamlessly without having me manage the job or interfere with their work. It was all clear and agreed prior to hiring Marla. No surprises on my end. I am a busy, professional single mom so I had no issue paying for and hiring a professional to make my life easier. **I wasn't seeking a cheap solution rather a much needed professional service. I have no problem paying for quality. If I was looking for budget I would of hired the desperate men in front of Home Depot! Marla was never present and although her team is very nice, they are NOT professionally trained organizers. Her team is just young college kids who did pack my house quickly... That was great but NOT organizational pros. Proof is in the photos I will attach to this review. (Somehow photos were taken off Yelp?! That's suspicious!) they just showed lack of organization- nothing more. Marla suggested I use her team to actually move instead of a moving company. The move was to be expected with their limited moving experience however I was still satisfied. Didn't feel money was wasted. I saw the labor and effort however it was nothing to refer or brag about. Things changed once I moved into the new home. It was agreed to unpack my home and make my home look very neat & organized. Marla bragged of feng shui experience and other ideas I liked. Her team packed my home so I assumed by the labeled boxes they would know where things basically belong... Being a professional organizing company. Basically unpacking consisted of just opening boxes putting items alla wherever, and leaving piles of boxes and trash in front of the home. I had to re-do the unpacking and organizing that was done. Even a simple linen closet is linens taken straight from the box, not refolded. Looked like they were flung onto the shelves. My kitchen was unpacked by the nicest girl but items were not well thought out as they were put away so the flow of the kitchen is totally off. Things were unpacked without any thought. No order. The crew claims they worked hard and the house didn't have enough space however this is a much larger home then from where I moved- double in size in an upscale gated community. My prior home was not cluttered and was a much smaller space. I had very little stored in garage so the excuses were not adding up. I understand moving is challenging but this was a job going downhill quickly. The unpacking and organizing was not high quality at all. My new home was left with boxes still in the garage pilled high and furniture never made it to the correct rooms. After 2 days of unpacking with Marla's company I decided to cancel the rest of the work. I just wanted them out! I feel after nearly $2000. That this was absolutely unacceptable and unprofessional and I was being duped. Over promised, over sold and under delivered. I didn't want to continue paying them for sloppy work although would have continued to pay them to finish the job if they were worth it. A professional moving company would of been less expensive and would of done the same quality of work or better...I was looking for ORGANIZATION & QUALITY and willing to pay for it. Since Marla I hired a real certified company and the difference was monumental

They both did a wonderful job, paying extra attention to get everything clean. I was so happy that they could come out on short notice since this was a last minute surprise I decided to do.

She was comprehensive and timely in her response to our requests. We love that she has a U.S. phone number for our friends / family to contact, in the event of an emergency. Her in-country contact was helpful as well. Since we received confirmation for some business appointments at the last minute, her associate (quickly!) facilitated transportation arrangements. Also, I'm glad she recommended the luxury bus service between Ankara and Istanbul. Our chai-wala was so kind, making the 6-hour trip comfortable. We highly recommend Mehmet Korkmaz, our Cappadocia tour guide, and and Yusef the driver. Both are uber-friendly. Mehmet smiled while he answered the seemingly thousands of questions we asked. Yusef taught us how to speak Turkish -- at the 'truck stop,' although we probably embarrassed him. :D
