Events With Darrell

ding rehearsal. NOPE. Wedding day and Darrell’s assistant at the time said she would be at my hotel by 7:00am. Didn’t happen. I get a call from one of the vendors around 11:00am saying Darrell is not at the venue (he told me he was going to be there all day) and she doesn’t know where to put the stuff. I get another text from our marquee vendor saying she has called Darrell over 20 times and needs to know where to put the letters because she too is at the venue and Darrell isn’t there. I reach out to his assistant She says she will handle it and I let it go. Keisha shows up a few hours later, we’ve taken pics and we are ready to transition. Thinking Keisha is going to the wedding venue with us I give her my veil because it’s super grand and I didn’t want to walk with it. We transition to the ceremony venue (a little late but that’s ok) and they won’t let me get off the bus. Come to find out Darrell is there, Keisha is NOT and she has my veil. Irritated I tell Darrell that I will just walk without it and let’s begin. Ceremony occurs yay yay yay and now it’s time for the reception which is at another venue. We get to the ceremony venue and its breathtaking. But, no Darrell, no Keisha, no Pablo, and none of his other rented “assistants” Keisha shows up about 45 min later pretending like she was at the venue (lies) we FINALLY begin. We walk in as a bridal party, everything is finally flowing and the sparklers go off but they are under some beautiful pompas leaves. Well those beautiful leaves spark a fire and BAM we had to shut the wedding down for an hour to ensure that everything was safe and taken care of. This caused me to miss the father/daughter dance, mother/son dance, bouquet toss, garter toss, and all the American traditions we planned. What saved the wedding you ask? Not Keisha, or Darrell although Keisha did try to reconcile things so I appreciate that and Darrell was in a corner crying. It was actually the Nigerian traditional ceremony we included in the wedding. I could say more but in all “I would not recommend Darrell after this horrible experience with him.

change clothes in our hotel suite, which was very unprofessional, as this was suppose to be our special day and private time with our wedding party). We began texting and calling Darrell at 8am the day of our event, with no response from him. It wasn’t until 2pm when another vendor called and texted us in a group with Darrell saying they have not heard from him and need to get in touch ASAP! Many of the vendors complained to us about how unprofessional and unorganized Darrell was. Our wedding day was a disaster. Darrell over promised and failed to deliver. We had terrible communication issue throughout the planning process to the point that we had to demand a discount a month prior to the wedding day, because WE had basically planned everything OURSELVES . Still we were hoping he would execute the day of, since we have seen beautiful picture of past events. Many of his staff has quit, which now i understand why. I have so much more to add… but the most important thing is to STAY AWAY FROM THIS FRAUD “WEDDING PLANNER” that planned and executed absolutely NOTHING correctly.

ng was flawless! I am recommending him to anyone and everyone.

my wedding. He has a vast network in Houston which was very valuable during planning. He put together my dream wedding and my husband and I couldn't be happier with it all!

nsured the planning process was smooth and were even able to deal with my bridezilla ways lol. He even worked to find us great vendor deals so in essence he paid for himself. We are so thankful for his services and for helping us to pull off the most epic wedding of 2016.

uld our wedding would have turned out without you. Thank you for your kindness and executing every detail we desired. We will refer you to everyone we know.! FYI you will be planning our baby shower hen that time comes.

E EVER IMAGINED. WHEN I SAY ALL OF OUR GUEST STAYED UNTIL THE VERY END.! HE WAS SO WELL ORGANIZED AND MADE SURE WE HAD NO WORRIES. EVENTS WITH DARRELL AND HIS TEAM WE WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT WE APPRECIATE YOUR HARD WORK, WE WISH WE COULD DO THIS EVERY YEAR HAHA!! THANKS AGAIN. CANDICE AND TERRANCE

n when problems arose, he handled them with grace and class. I would recommend his services to any and all engaged couples. My wedding felt like a fairy tale.
