Danielle RUINED our dream wedding. She forgets everything, messes up plans she creates…gives different answers from day to day …even moment to moment! She is aloof and incompetent....
She shouldn’t be in charge Of anything except backyard BBQ’s….but I wouldn’t trust her with that! She hires her “team” who have no clue what the bride and groom want…she embarrassed me In front of my entire family on what should have been the best day of my life! I worked so hard to make every detail perfect, Danielle took it and squished it like a bug!
She has a spread sheet..don’t let it fool you! She pretends to know what’s she’s doing.I had to sent her our Four song playlist multiple times. She got our mother son dance wrong …not once, not twice but THREE times at the event! When corrected she left the wedding and left us to fend for ourselves! Saying she was assaulted! What a joke. Bride and groom sweating over three days,until 1 hour before our wedding start time.which made us start late. But don’t worry because she didn’t even remember to contact the hotel to confirm pick up time to get them to the ceremony! We had to remind her at 10am the day of! Then she made everyone arrive two hours early and sit around in the hot sun.
Didn’t get us prepped, didn’t remember to announced us for our reception. After standing around for over an hour waiting we had to send a groomsmen to find her! I paid for 5 workers to help her then she complained that “she thought we would have friends helping.” Mins later When friends offered to help, she refused to speak to them. One meeting said I needed friends to help, three days later told me it wasn’t necessary. Multiple times during the year-long process of planning with her.She can’t remember where she places items from one hour to the next! She was hired for rehearsal dinner. I had to ask 30 minutes before it started if I needed to set it up myself. She tried to fit 36 people on 3 8 foot tables.I had to send her a reminder list the morning of the wedding at 6 AM About basic things because I had no faith that she would execute anything after the previous day. I collected vintage china for a year. She had the plastic charger plates set out for everyone to eat off of! Mine was served to me on a plastic serving plate with bows.The ceremony was a horrible mess! She didn’t use the items.She didn’t make road signs visible AT ALL for guest parking . I spent hundreds of dollars on the entrance that wasn’t even seen because of her lack of competence .
Gift bags, programs…a chandelier laying on the ground that she didn’t hang….all garbage! Not used , not seen, left out in the rain to get ruined all because of her …
I sure hope she ate dinner tho!
I paid her an extra $500 to manage my RSVP Website. Which she totally and completely botched and did not pay any attention to whatsoever. She spelled names wrong people were missing, multiple Duplicates.I paid her to stress me out for the entire six months leading up to the wedding.She forgot meetings, blew off the last two meetings in the wedding month..Every meeting was like starting over because she didn’t remember ANYTHING.I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt and be patient. And I was..Until I realized she took my money and sat around to watch me panic and cry on my wedding day while she road around looking clueless on a golf cart.The list goes on and on …Don't quit your day job Danielle! I will feel SO BADLY if anyone else is treated this way . Do not hire her !
Dannie was a JOY to work with! She took such great care of our event, making sure she took on as much of our stress as possible. She really got to know us, allowing her to make dec...
isions and plans that were exactly what we wanted without adding to our plate. Would love to work with her again in the future!
