Recommendations

Wonderful experience! - An Eventective User

Arrived at the venue and it was all set up, ready to go, and it was beautiful! Our hostess introduced herself and was available the whole event to answer questions, take care of every aspect of the event arranged with the venue, and to make sure the Bridal Shower had everything promised and needed! Highly recommend!
