A-1 Party, Tent, & Tool

It is like this silver foil rainbow color I fell in love with. They just have the best and most unique stuff. Don't sleep on them. They stepped it up this year.

we began looking at fall 2021 dates. By happenstance our dream venue had a cancellation September 19th so we jumped on it. This left us with a little less than three full months to plan, invite guests, secure vendors, and deal with all the stress that planning entails. We began our search for vendors with photographers, and after interviewing 9 photographers we kept coming back to PPE. They had a great portfolio and seemed to have a good eye along with an understanding of style. Before we decided on a photographer we also began the search for a videographer. We knew we wanted a ceremony video, along with some kind of overall day video. We were also considering finding a live streaming service or a videographer who could do a live stream for us. Well who did we come across again and again – PPE Events. We ended up going with the storybook photo package because we liked the story telling aspect of getting a curated photo album. We also chose the full video package. The name escapes me though. It included everything we wanted from the videography side though. We were able to also add a fisheye photobooth, and a live stream package and got a really good package discount. The photographer was early and stayed late. We spoke with them on the phone the week before our wedding and went over a list of pictures I wanted including my family shots. They were helpful in giving me guidance on locations for pictures, and the second lady we had there had a really funny personality. There was a point that the second lady (Nicole I think) even ran to Starbucks for my ladies! They went above and beyond. The office seemed organized, and the online planning forms were pretty easy. I was not super impressed that we had to wait until so close to the wedding to get assigned a photographer and then wait so close to the wedding to have that shot list conversation. The videographers on the other hand were right on time, and were more in the shadows of the photographers. They had us do a few posed things but overall they captured us in the moment. This was very important to me as I imagined my wedding video being a collection of little moments through the day and not a splattering of posed and curated shots. It honestly was about the same as far as communication. The guy streaming the ceremony ended up being the same guy that also ran the photobooth. I spoke with six companies that did fisheye photobooths and not only was PPE the cheapest – they offered us more options. After we got our pictures we were able to add props and things to our pictures right at the booth. They had it setup to text the pictures and gifs to our phones. I also was able to download all of my pictures from that same link so there was no waiting on them to send me them after the event. The streamer/booth guy was named Justin and he had such a crazy fun personality. I am a huge dancer and we also had a great DJ but I spent so much time in the photobooth on my wedding night. They also went above and beyond and provided the metal things with the red velvet rope, the circle stickers on the floor, and hand sanitizer. The quality of the picture was amazing. I think the photobooth was the cheapest thing we got from them and it had the most immediate impact on the entire event.

ouldn't hang right and we had to hang it a different way we told them when we returned the parts and they did nothing no sorry or discount

different people helping me and so I had heard different things, BUT they did an amazing job. Wanda was great and delivered my stuff and was so nice even though we were still adding things on and taking things off last minute. They by far had the most variety of colors and options to choose from. I could not have planned this without them. My reception ended up looking PERFECT in Tiffany blue and literally, even better than I pictured it to be. I am still obsessed!!!

could imagine! They handled everything with ease and never acted stressed or complained about the countless things we asked of them. Instead they were always positive, adapted to every idea we had, and made our dream wedding a reality! If you are looking for coordinators who are extremely organized, great communicators, and are flexible enough to adjust for last minute changes (including tropical storms) Weddingly is the way to go!

riend she gave them a big thumbs up. I reached out to about 4 planners and not only were they the most reasonably priced they were also the fastest at getting back to me and staying in touch. I worked with Josh a lot before the wedding and he helped me in picking out other awesome and very well priced vendors. I was stressed to the max before them. They created a 5 page day of timeline and then kept me on point. Kristen even brought up and took care of things I would have never thought of during the day of my wedding. The day went almost perfectly. My makeup artist didnt properly attach my right lash and half way through my first look it was peeling off. Kristen swooped in with her bag of goodies and she actually had eyelash glue! I couldn't believe how prepared she was for all of the little emergencies. They did the place settings, worked with my DJ (TKO which was awesome), worked with my photographer, and my other vendors to ensure my day was fantastic. I had Josh officiate the wedding as well and he was great. When I think back about what I would and would not change about my wedding, I only wished that I hired them sooner. I have also recommended them to my sister for wedding next January too!

er made sure that our special branding unity service was ready to go and was perfect. Josh put up with all of the frustrations and concerns with thing that could go wrong and did a great job the day of keeping us on our time line. Josh and Kristen are an amazing team and were an exceptional part of our wedding. They made clean up very easy, and set up a breeze. Their pricing is amazing compared to what any other planner charges. Would recommend to any bride and groom that needs help to check these two out at Weddingly events you won't regret it!

y mom and I didn't show up at the hall, it would not have been set up right. The owner herself thought is would be a good idea to switch consultants, so I had the owner do my set up who I never discussed a single detail with and she sent the girl who walked me through everything to her client. Then, they left a table cloth (even though we paid them for tear down) and my mom had to go out of her way to return it or we would have been charged. The owner decided we would not be compensated for that. Also, my mom noticed she got less back than quoted, and when she called she was told she was charged 10.00 because one of the linens had wax on it. We had ZERO candles at the reception and nothing made of wax. Terrible service and we will never go back! Side note: if you do use this service, ask for Amber (she is VERY GOOD and so sweet) and refuse to have the owner touch any of your plans.

g in setting up sample tables, centerpieces, etc. to show us different options until we found what we liked. They were quick, efficient, and delivered and picked up all of our rentals so it was zero hassle for us. Their prices were great, too! I would definitely recommend to any bride!

eturned to them. They also said there was candle wax on one and they couldn't get it out. Apparently they don't know about Pinterest. I've never seen mold grow in such a short time. I wish they would have shown the tablecloths to us in person. They also charged an outrageous price for three pieces of fabric mesh that had gotten thrown away. They looked like they were disposable so we didn't think to keep them. I could buy the same exact thing on amazon for less than $7 and they charged us $27. After your event they can charge anything they want because they take it out of your deposit. I think it's a scam and a business that is only there to charge afterwards for things you can't argue about.

-1 and put together different styles to see what worked best. I was finally able to make a decision. Pick up was easy and all of the jars already had the fake ice in them! During set up, I realized that the quantities for certain size cylinders were off. We'd been shorted 8 inch cylinders and received too many 7 inch cylinders. In the end, no one else noticed the sizes. My mom mentioned it when she returned all of the items and they were very surprised and apologetic. Overall really great service!

y it was also one of the things that did not come out at all like I pictured it in my head/ like the picture given to A1. Then, the day before the wedding what they set up was NO WHERE near what I showed them/ wanted. I told them to just not put it up because their version was so cheap looking that I didn't even want it in my pictures! They also did a table layout for us for the reception site that was no where near accurate. It also did not provide much room for dancing. I'm most disappointed by the lack of draping, and it will forever be something that I really did miss at my wedding.

bit pricey but again, they had a great selection.

ers to use at no charge as well as more water pearls to go into the centerpieces. The reception looked amazing and I am still getting comments on it. They are definitely a company to look into to if you are looking for a beautifully decorated room.

we needed bigger clips for the table skirts and they were able to have it ready for us to pick up. They really know their stuff.

l that we had to bring the exact boxes back, and we did, but it was a little worrisome for me. Also, one of the glass pieces was chipped and we didn't notice before leaving with the items.

ore than the rental price. I would have loved to have gotten them but couldn't see paying more for delivery than rental. Other than that they were great.

aking sure we had everything we needed. However, they waited too long to place our order and some of the items were not in stock. A week before the wedding, we had to change our order. They did give us a discount to make up for the inconvenience, but it was a headache that could have been prevented.

stuck. They are easy going and very friendly staff. Highly recommend!

morning and drop off monday morning (Since they are closed on Sun). Great people!

with setup and take down and didn't really need any extra direction while setting up, they remembered exactly how I wanted everything. They are also very honest, I even got a refund check from them after the wedding.
