I was so impressed and pleased with the level of professionalism, the product, and the reaction of the guests who saw the aisle runner. Chris was wonderful! Since I am mathematically challenged, she worked with the general manager at the Empire... Room in Greensboro, NC to obtain the correct measurements for the runner and they were PECFECT! Additionally, she worked with the owner of the Greensboro, NC Hallmark to match the font that was used on the invitations, programs, and save the dates with the font used on the aisle runner. My guests are still talking about how beautiful, odd, and different my aisle runner was. I received so many wonderful and positive comments about the runner. Her level of professionalism is beyond reproach. She kept me abreast of all of the steps that would be taken in the process. She contacted me prior to my credit card being charged. She called me before the aisle runner was shipped. If I called her and left a message, she always contacted me back expeditiously. Often times, people get nervous when working with vendors who are out of state. I can honestly say that I developed a positive relationship with Chris and I trusted her and her judgment and opinion. It is my hope that she will gain more business in the North Carolina market (as well as others) because her work is FANTASTIC! The owner of the Hallmarks in Greensboro, NC was so impressed with the pictures that I showed her until she contacted Chris personally and asked for literature. I'm certain that the owner of the Greensboro, NC Hallmarks will utilize her services.
When I initially contacted Chris, she agreed to send literature out to me and I received it in a very timely manner. How awesome is that? When her company was closing for a few days due to remodeling, she kept me informed and we worked around those dates. How neat is that?
When I had inquiries about which markers could be used to write on the aisle runner, she mailed me additionally swatches and made recommendations for the types of markers that I should purchase such that the writing could be displayed. I really and truly enjoyed working with her and the Designing the Aisle Company. I look forward to meeting brides who are getting married because I love telling them about my aisle runner, my positive experience, and Designing the Aisle in FL. All of my vendors were great to work with but Chris exceeded my expectations as I was blown away when I saw the runner rolled out on my wedding day (July 19, 2014 at 5:00p.m.)
As Chris and her team designed my runner, she sent me pictures while they were creating it. I still have those pictures saved in my phone and I pull them out every opportunity that I get. People always tell me that they have never seen such. Would I use Designing the Aisle again? ABSOLUTELY! Designing the Aisle made my wedding day perfect. We are approaching a month of being married and the guests are STILL talking about my wedding and the aisle runner. Most people think that the product was very expensive. I didn't think that she was expensive at all. I thought that it was very much in line with other companies. Thanks for everything Chris!
