out from the event date. I helped you for 11 months, I have between 4-6 emails every month. That is considered by any planner to be a full package which most planners charge $3500.00. Lazy, dishonest, and unprofessional are not even in my vocabulary. I worked from 9:00am until 9:30 pm on your wedding day. I ran your timeline exactly like you had it. The only thing I did not do was release tables, that was a last minute change as you have on your timeline that releasing tables was not necessary ( your words) The DJ was going to do it, then it got moved to me doing it. Your mother was told that we would be back the next day to break down the tables, chairs, linens for the tent company. We did this as a courtesy to you. This was NOT my job, this responsibility was yours. You knew we were coming, I knocked on the door twice, and cracked the door open as it was unlocked and yelled your name to let you know we were setting a table 5 feet inside the dining room door. You heard us, I told you that we were setting the table there and you said “no problem”. By the way I don’t have a key to the house, the only person with a key to the house was you. That can be verified by the owner. As for you renting thru Airbnb/vrbo, you are mistaken, you paid cash to the venue owner. So you didn’t rent thru that service ( which can also be verified) As for my assistant Mel, who you never even spoke to, and another staff member I had to hire out of my own money since you declined to hire staff to set up tables, chairs and such. If you will reread your emails you will see where we suggested staff for this reason. You declined that as something you did not want to pay for. You contracted with the tent company yourself, any shortages that we informed you about are your responsibility not ours to deal with. You and I, along with Mike and your mom have met several times on different occasions. Yes I did make notes at the rehearsal as you had the order of your wedding party incorrect, so I needed to write the correct names of who would walk with each other. I did ask your mother if the grooms mother had anyone that would be sitting with her. Your mother asked your mother in law that question. Which she stated there were some family members that she would like to sit with her. As for the catering staff and owner, I’ve talked to them and no such things have been said. Plus you had 150 guests but you only ordered enough food for 100, after repeatedly being told by the caterer that that would not be enough. The caterer graciously sent some extra food at her expense. I realize you were on a budget and we did try to help you with suggestions, as did the caterer. As for the reception plates, cups, dessert plates and flatware, that was all there along with the 150 gold chargers you rented. I have pictures and receipts for those items if you need a copy. As for the cake, you didn’t contract me to cut the cake, and when your mom asked about the slicing of the cake your guests and caterers had already left. I did say we could cut some more if she wanted me to. I also went and located extra cups for the cocktail hour, those belonged to the venue owner. Which I will be replacing at my expense. Your mother gave the bartender a pack of 245 cups for the bar area. Also, you requested that we buy bags of ice for the bar (8 total) that was also at my expense. I was never rude to any guests, I had 5 guests that I spoke to tell me that the coffee & cider had run out, I told them thank you I would let the caterer know, which I did. This was done while you were getting your dress bustled. I had everyone lined up for the wedding and for the reception. Your wedding started on time and when we opened the doors for your ceremony I even fixed your train before you walked down the aisle, I also have pictures of this if you need them. As for the alcohol question, which was the only time I addressed you besides the cutting of the cake. The way your guests were drinking the bartender wanted to know if you ran out what to do. I addressed this question to your father who intern told me to go ask you. As for the venue owner, your mother and her friends kept asking questions about why it is for sale. I did say I had made an offer but it had not been taken as of then. I do take responsibility for not releasing the tables as that was the only thing that did not happen correctly. After the sparkler send off, I had your grandparents and several guests tell me what a beautiful wedding it was. That everything was wonderful. I’m sorry that you feel differently. I do wish you many blessings.

uest. Thnak you for letting us know and I wish you both many blessings on your wedding. Stargazers Designs
