Angelic Affairs

My husband and I had the honor of working with Kelly on our destination wedding in the Azores. She stuck by us through planning the wedding pre-Covid, cancelling the wedding mid-Covid, and finally two years later, rallying to deliver the most magical experience of our lifetime. She is kind, genuine, communicative, and takes every measure to really understand what you're looking for on your special day... and then makes it a reality! I cannot recommend Angelic Affairs highly enough. She is the BEST in the biz and makes wedding dreams come true : )

Kelly did the floral arrangements for our wedding and was absolutely wonderful to work with. She is so knowledgable, patient and kind. She had so many insights, professional tips and ideas, and was able to work within our budget to create floral arrangements for our ceremony and reception. My husband and I had no idea what flowers to choose, and we weren't sure exactly what we wanted in terms of design, so Kelly made a beautiful drawing of what our arch would be, and it was amazing. The actual results were exactly like the drawing, but so much better. Overall we are so happy with her work!

I can’t say enough great things about Kelly and her team at Angelic Affairs. Kelly did the Day-of coordination, as well as the flowers for my wedding on July 18, 2021. Always kind and patient, Kelly is the most organized person I’ve ever met! She was amazing to work with and had great ideas for the little details I never would have thought of. She communicated with all of my vendors and kept me in the loop, adapting to any changes that arose during the process. When there was a problem, she always had a great solution. Her eye for flowers and decorating is so elegant and she created my exact vision for my wedding day! Kelly is super responsive and made every part of my wedding day punctual and perfect so my husband and I could enjoy every second.

Kelly did our floral arrangements, décor, and wedding coordination for our wedding weekend. Our flower and décor were generally lovely and Kelly displayed a good eye for design and helping us put together what we envisioned. However, her wedding coordination capabilities were extremely lacking, and it was her extremely unprofessional and sub-par performance in her coordination skills that made our wedding extremely stressful and difficult. I will highlight a few details below, but overall my husband and I want to emphasize that Kelly is unfortunately NOT a hire we recommend you make for your wedding; our experience with her was so stressful and negative, and we both agree that it was important to us to share this information so that future couples do not have the same experience we did. Primarily, our negative experience reflects Kelly's incompetence and unfamiliarity with our timeline, which she was supposed to be actively managing. She did not know our ceremony processional details, though we had shared it in detail with her, and called my husband by the wrong name. Her lack of presence / proactivity throughout the weekend highlighted her inability to complete her duties as weekend coordinator. She was not there for problem-solving weather alternatives when our weather took a turn for the worst on the day of our wedding. She was not action oriented: we had to constantly hunt her down to ask her to help address issues, communicate with vendors, etc. She sent multiple versions of a new timeline, for no reason, between 1 – 2 AM the night before our wedding, and changed a number of key logistics that went against what we had clearly aligned on previously. Neither us nor our many vendors would realistically have an opportunity to review this during our wedding day. She seemed to not understand or realize that she should be managing vendors in real time. On the day of the wedding, she was nowhere to be found pre-ceremony. She did not set up ceremony chairs, reserved signs, or programs, and she did not coordinate putting our vows in the officiant's binder; these important details were left to our close family and friends. She did not coordinate photos, band, DJ, speeches, or dances to ensure they occurred on time. In fact, she had already left the wedding when I noticed lights needed to be turned down (before 10 PM). We had to manage her actively and ask specific questions to make sure she had actually done her job. The above is unfortunately not even a fully comprehensive list of the ways in which Kelly Teves at Angelic Affairs absolutely did not execute her duties as outlined in her contract. I am shocked by her incompetence; her lack of action or problem-solving; her stunning lack of presence throughout the weekend; her inability or unwillingness to manage the weekend, which is what we hired her to do. My husband and I felt completely unsupported and on our own; we would have been better off without a coordinator. We were extremely stressed and became our own last-minute coordinators, delegating to our fantastic friends, families, and other vendors who stepped up to handle what needed to be handled. I cannot emphasize this enough: Kelly did not do her job. Do not hire her. She seemed way over her head, disinterested or incapable of doing her duties, and ultimately added a lot of negativity to what was otherwise a totally beautiful weekend.
