Tara Gordon can turn a beautiful lifetime event and turn it into hiring a wizardof oz nightmare!!!!
Dickhead is all i have to say
I just watched you on Judge Judy. The fact that you're so disrespectful to Judy Judy and the fact that it's so obvious that all you care about is your $4,000 fee, I will spread this info to as many as I can. As a business owner, if you were not happy with the fact that they were late with their payments, then cancel the contract!!!
The owner is sooooo unprofessional and embarrassing!!! DO NOT USE HER!
She's unprofessional, and I have no idea how she's still in business! A really sad excuse for a planner of any sort! Tacky
She is a horrible human being. She has no people or communication skills.
Just watch the Judge Judy episode. If that is how she comports herself in front of a Judge, she must be a nightmare in person.
Watch the episode and Judge for yourself.
Terra Gordon is the most unprofessional person I’ve ever met. Rolled her eyes so much I thought she was having a medical issue. Lady is rude and I’m so glad I took my 150,000& budget to a professional.
Terra Gordon has the foulest most nasty attitude I’ve seen in someone who wants my money!! She literally rolled her eyes So many times at us I asked her if she was having a medical issue. I’m so glad I took my 120,000$ budget to a REAL PROFESSIONAL.
Terra Gordon is extremely rude and disrespectful. Her hateful attitude mixed with being a stressed bride? No thank you!
Before you book, you better watch the Judy Judy episode🤣🤣🤣🤣
If I could give 0 stars, I would. Our wedding was Oct 2022 and we hired Terra and Lavish Belle Events with about a year before the wedding and luckily we already had the venue booked. She provided a binder with the services she would provide me and she did maybe half. The whole time I wished we just would have done the planning ourselves. As we had predicted for weeks, 2 days before the wedding she claimed she had covid and couldn't make it but also hadn't completed our decor....2 days before the wedding. These were our big pain points through the process:
1. Terra and Ronita are both very rude, not just to their clients but also to the vendors. There were many times I had to correct Terra because she doesn't listen and messed up details, such as us wanting real flowers and not fake ones. This was because the fake flowers would come from the company so she could charge whatever she wanted.
2. Money. She calls your budget the proposed budget. She will blow past it without consulting you before hand and then hold your wedding hostage for the remainder. Because most items are purchased/rented from her inventory of items, she will not provide any sort of invoice on what she's buying. Towards the end we tried to give her as little as possible to do and we still ended up with a seating chart that wasn't ours as well as table numbers that weren't ours. Not to mention she never made the seating chart. We paid for items and services we never got.
3. She failed to pay our photographer on time. We paid her our full budget amount well in advance, as well as the additional $300 she demanded the week before the wedding and begged her to pay all the vendors prior to the wedding day, which she refused to do and said she knows best. Even with all that she still failed to pay the photographer until 2 months after the wedding, we suspected she spent that money. Luckily because I had been in contact with other brides using this service and knew things like this would happen, I had enough sense to contact the owner of the photography company and explain what was going on before she got our account behind. They also contacted me today to let me know Terra has now disputed the last 2 payments she made to them for our photos. That is theft since we paid her that money and have proof of such.
Check out season 2 episode 15 of Justice Judy and you'll get a good taste of her attitude in general. She's a con artist and it looks like the word is starting to spread. My only saving grace was my venue and their coordinator. Terra and Lavish Belle ruined the process of planning my wedding but I caught onto her act and made sure to contact all vendors before the wedding. Looks like she's closed up shop, but if she ever resurfaces just beware of Terra Gordon and anything she is attached to.
Lavish belle took care of everything I could have asked for. Any hiccup we had was quickly resolved. Terra is incredible at communicating. My wedding was a dream!! Couldn’t have asked for a better planner
