Leandra & Company

Leandra was phenomenal to work with. She was very professional and exceptionally helpful. It was stressful planning a wedding long-distance and during COVID, but she helped me out with even the last minute requests. I never received an unhelpful answer from Leandra. All of my family and in-laws expressed their appreciation for Leandra on the day of the wedding. She was very cordial and kind with everyone. I could not imagine going through this process without her.

Leandra Guy Attachments Sun, Jul 11, 6:10 PM (13 hours ago) to me Hi Dionne, When I spoke to your venue a few days ago they said the setup can't start until 1:00 PM. They open at 11AM and will allow you to drop off items at that time only. Do you have a few family members/friends to assist with setup at 1:00 PM ? The earliest I am able to get there is 2:30 PM. I have attached the updated wedding plan, can I have the email address of those that will assist with setup? Hello Ms. Guy, My statement regarding your arrival time was NOT a question? Nor, was my QUESTION regarding your services to complete the venue setup a QUESTION? Not only have you questioned my intelligence at this point, my lack of obtaining references was a lack of good judgement on my part. YOU my dear, were hired to complete a job in which, the most important aspect, is the venue setup as outlined in our signed Contract. NOT ONLY did you WASTE MY TIME, in providing YOU with a detailed excel document with clear instructions and expectations that were EXPECTED to be met, in which, you were HIRED and paid early in good faith that you would adhere to YOUR companies contract to perform. ● Day of wedding ○ Coordination of ceremony and reception including: ■ Assist vendors with setup and teardown, if needed ■ Organize and set up escort cards, place cards, signage, and menu cards ■ Oversee check-in of rentals ■ Conduct a walkthrough prior to ceremony to finalize venue setup and vendors are ready for guests arrival To advise a client that they have to be on your TIME TABLE and that you will NOT BE THERE TO COMPLETE YOUR HIRED TASK IS UNACCEPTABLE. I am perplexed as to what your definition and timeframe for YOU to begin work when HIRED for our wedding on July 31st, 2021 was in your mind. Not July 31st @ 2:30 pm 30 minutes before our wedding is to begin, my dear. I didn’t Hire YOU to just show up. Your professionalism is subject to questioning now. Not only were you rude in your conduct in speaking with Candace at Mastro’s in telling her you couldn’t finish your discussion of services, due to “YOU HAVING ANOTHER APPOINTMENT” this level of service with OUR WEDDING AND BUSINESS CLIENTS is totally unacceptable and nor is it professional. I know this to be a fact and true, because you conduct yourself that way with me. We are all so sorry YOU have more important things to DO! Due to my husband’s entertainment business and colleagues we have decided to FIRE YOU from conducting any further services on our behalf. You are free to keep the $600.00. What will happen is that all of our business associates in the entertainment and event planning business here in Houston will be alerted of your professionalism and advised NOT to conduct business with you. Please delete all of OUR personal information provided to you. Respectfully,

I have zero bad things to say about Leandra and this whole experience. If I did anything right about my wedding planning, it was hiring Leandra. She did a phenomenal job executing my vision and in the planning process, she was punctual, organized, and kept me on track with my Own planning. Our wedding events were outside of her comfort zone as it was a Muslim wedding, so we had asked her to coordinate the Walima but it didn’t stop her. She went out of her way to review details and give us the stress free event of our lives! I had so much fun at my wedding and without her, I’m sure half of the things I wanted and when I wanted them wouldn’t have been part of the picture. Brides, or those looking to throw a spectacular organized event, hire her. You won’t regret it. She’s down to earth, a joy to work with and you feel like you are putting your event into more than capable hands.

I had no clue on where to start for our wedding, even though it was a very intimate wedding (total of 7 peeps) due to the pandemic. Leandra was there to guide us through every step of the process, which made me feel less overwhelmed about wedding planning. She is exceptionally organized and literally thought of everything down to the last detail (eg. bringing sand to fill the sandbags to anchor down our arch, bringing water bottles and ice, etc). We highly recommend Leandra Guy!
