The AG venue is absolutely beautiful! What drew us to AG was the reception room & chapel; the windows, the nature & greenery, the whole European vibe was exactly what we were looki...ng for. The reception room was very spacious, while the chapel room gave the same feel as what a real church would feel like. B/c of all the windows, it was bright & gave a lot of natural lighting. I highly recommend Susanna & Hallie as your event coordinator. They were amazing w/ helping out w/ anything that you needed; responding to all your questions & concerns, & making sure you are happy & doing okay. They will make your day less stressful than it needs to be, you can count on them to be there for you! Everything was quite organized, they make sure that everything is moving along accordingly so that you don't fall behind, & everything that you want will happen the way you want it to.
The food was just ok, you really pay for the beauty & convenience of the venue. Since it was a package deal, you don't have to go through the trouble of finding your own catering, bakery...etc, so you can't expect everything to be perfect.
Our DJ Aiden was great, we love him as a person and everything! However, a lot of songs that we requested didn't get played, or it was a different version/remix of the song, & a lot of the songs we didn't know/requested got played. My husband sang a song to me after doing toasts, the song was suppose to be cut off & faded out towards the end, but he ended up singing the whole thing b/c it didn't end on time; it messed him up a little bit. Most importantly, our first dance was suppose to be the 3 min. version that we sent him, instead the full song got played, & it really threw us off. We thought we had forgotten the steps & messed up, so we requested to do it again for our last dance. However the full version got played again, & that's when we realized it. Therefore we just improvised & went with it, until it got to the part where we recognized the steps again. It was quite embarrassing & disappointing, since I put a lot of time & efforts into the playlist. We practiced so hard for our first dance for months, but didn't get to show it to our loved ones. Overall, we decided not to make it a big deal, & what's most important is that everyone enjoyed the music!
Lyon Paperie did amazing w/ our stationaries! Miranda was especially helpful, I wish everyone could respond as quickly as her. She is patient & will accommodate to all your requests, & answer all your questions, day or night!
Design Haus did good w/ florals. I love the faux florals that was used for the center piece, but personally I feel that the real florals were not vibrant & fresh as I hoped, especially the ones on the cake, but I don't blame them since we had our wedding at the end of November. They were good enough, we do think that they are quite pricey. Even w/ the credits given, w/ everything we wanted, it went way over. We had to greatly reduce it by taking out some things, & diy-ing a few things ourselves.
Jenny Lane Bakery did an amazing job w/ the cake & desserts! We chose the lemon berry as our wedding cake, & it has become my favorite cake of all time! We also chose 5 desserts, which were all really great as well!
We love our photographer Demi! She had to leave early due to an emergency, so Courtney took her place, & she is good as well. I have to say that it takes a long time to get all the photos, but understandable since they have other weddings, & there's a lot of photos that needs to be processed, fixed/edited.
Overall, the experience was good, everything went smoothly, everyone enjoyed their time, & we are happy to have been married at such a beautiful venue, w/ great people who worked w/ us to make everything perfect. Thank you AG Team for all your time & efforts into making our day special & memorable!
