Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Chrissy, as our Day of Coordinator, and overall, the experience was positive. She was incredibly nice and helpful, especially when it came to managing last-minute details. Chrissy stepped in seamlessly to take over everything I spent a year planning and handling unexpected changes, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. However, one area of improvement would be the level of attention to some of our must-have moments. We would highly suggest requesting a second announcement for the cake cutting, as there was so much cake left over from a 4-tier cake and guests wanted to take some with them. Additionally, we felt that we didn’t get as much exposure or focus as we had hoped compared to other couples, other than a picture of the blank balcony, but Chrissy was still able to help. Despite these minor issues, Chrissy was professional, attentive, spunky, and genuinely committed to making our day special. We appreciate the effort and dedication put into the day of coordinating our wedding, especially since it was in the Panhandle.

Lorraine & Staff When I found The Garden Ballroom, I knew it was the venue for us. Both my new husband & I work a lot of hours, and didn’t have much time during the week to plan our wedding. We used their all inclusive package, it made planning a breeze. We found that Lorraine was very accommodating to us, as we had a few hiccups since we were planning from afar. We drove for two hours to do the important meetings in person, and a few on the phone. Day of the wedding, it was easy to kick back and trust the Garden Ballroom had it under control. If there was ever a problem, I had no idea. All my guests loved the venue and had wonderful things to say. We stayed at the Staybridge Suites around the corner, and it made it so easy! I cannot say enough nice things about both Lorraine, Alfredo, and the staff at The Garden Ballroom. Everyone we worked with was so kind and wonderful to speak with. My guests spoke highly of the venue and staff as well. The venue itself was beautiful and charming. There are so many options for decorations, Lorraine will be able to capture your vision. I scrolled through their Instagram, and sent them DM's when I liked something in particular. Be sure to follow them and watch their stories & posts if you book! You won't be disappointed booking at this venue. While the building itself doesn't have its own parking lot, there is ample parking nearby. None of my guests had a problem. Catering The Catering was good! We selected for the Italian Menu, as we knew it would be a crowd pleaser. During the tasting we provided some feedback, and it was resolved. Catering was also able to accommodate our vegetarian guests by making sure the meatballs were on the side; which was a big deal to us. I know not all catering companies will do alterations, so it was nice to have it. We also had a gluten free guest, and I was happy to hear that I could order her a special plate. She gave it a 10/10 too! The food was delicious and I was hearing compliments from everyone. DJ For our DJ, we had Carlos. We were not sure if any of our guests were going to get on the dance floor. So we told him to go with the flow. We also bought some LED foam light sticks. Carlos did a fantastic job! We had people up on the dance floor the whole time. My guests loved the music selection. Being able to share songs from a Spotify playlist made sending our song selections so easy.

So with less than 45 days till our wedding we decided that we definitely wanted a videographer for our day even though it was a small wedding with less than 50 people and did not to just have photos. So with so little time left before the big day I stumbled across Albert of JES Wedding films messaged to see if he even had our date available. Thankfully he did and with so little time left coordinated everything. On wedding Day he arrived early and wanted to make sure he had everything ready and set up. He was so easy to work with and so very kind our photographers enjoyed working with him as well. When we got our video I cried. He captured our day and all the small details that I want to remember from that day. Everyone that has seen it has gotten emotional as well when seeing it. We at least can sum up our day and show family and friends that weren’t present. Thank you Albert for capturing and showing a different perspective of our day.

My mission is to create wedding photos that tell the story of how the day unfolded. Portraits that capture the feelings and emotions of the day with lots of natural light, lots of natural smiles, and lots of natural moments. I offer direction when needed, but otherwise, I help things flow so I can photograph the day as it unfolds in front of my camera. My editing style is considered "light and airy" with a photojournalistic approach and a touch of fine-arts portraits for a healthy balance of art and craft. The colors are inspired by film tones with an emphasis on beautiful skin tones and lush minty greens. The highest level of service.

I'm absolutely down! You want to sit and eat a burrito with your best friend? I'm 100% down, and that's the best idea yet! My job is to capture the real and natural you. I want each photo to look authentic and true to who you are. I try to fill each session with as much fun and laughter as possible.

Jessica is AMAZING to work with. The first photoshoot that my husband and I did with her was both of our first professional photoshoots and we were nervous for sure. Jessica is so friendly and calm and creates just the right environment to make her clients feel comfortable. As a wedding photographer, she went way above and beyond what anyone would expect of a photographer. She sat down with me and helped create the schedule for our day, she showed up early and was ready to start taking pictures right away, she was communicative and fun throughout the whole wedding day, and has been extremely communicative since that day. She makes the whole process smooth, fun, and totally comfortable. I’m in love with the wedding photos that I will have to cherish for the rest of my life. I would absolutely recommend Jessica for any photography needs!!

Wow your friends and family with a variety of delicious cheeses, meats, crudites, fruit, nuts, dips and more.

Y’all…. The grazing table…. THE GRAZING TABLE WAS JAW DROPPING. I absolutely cannot even convey… there are no words to express how fantastic Melissa and her team were from start to finish. They went so above and beyond and the food was perfect. We wanted to do a bbq Tex mex hybrid and they knocked it out of the park. They did grilled shrimp for me that was so flippin good!!! Their bbq is obviously delicious but the things they did for us that you wouldn’t expect from a bbq spot also stole the show. Definitely don’t think they are a one trick pony because they can do it all. They even included Italian in our tasting that we initially were going to use for our rehearsal until rehearsal plans fell through, their Italian food was great too!! Truly the most well rounded accommodating caterers we could have hoped for…. Oh!! They also did a milk and cookies bar our guests adored! Not to mention the bride and groom Togo boxes they had ready for us for our midnight snack. So thoughtful, so professional, SO DELICIOUS!!

I highly recommend Kiersten to help with all of your sweet needs! My husband and I found Kiersten off of a Facebook promo post and from the moment we booked with her, she has been nothing shy of top-tiered service! You can tell that she pours her heart and soul into her cakes and desserts because, in the last few months, she has flourished in the details of her work! We booked her services almost one year ago for our wedding in Sept, but due to a tragic emergency surgery, the wedding had to be postponed very last- minute to December and Kiersten did not waiver in her gratitude towards my husband and I. Her effortless generosity meant a lot to us because, in a moment of stressful events, she brought light to us and did not hesitate to postpone her services back a few weeks. She offered a delightful selection of flavors, fillings, and options. We ordered a two-tiered wedding cake with all the fillings and different flavors, alongside a groom cake that we added at the last minute and both were very decadent and beautifully designed. On our wedding day, the cake was just as we had envisioned. We asked her to keep the wedding cake very sleek, simple, and plain because our florist would be decorating the cake in a very unique way. The intricate floral details and elegant design were absolutely stunning. We couldn't have asked for a better centerpiece for our reception. And the best part? The cake tasted just as good as it looked! I cannot recommend Kakes By Kiersten highly enough. She truly made our wedding experience sweeter and unforgettable. If you're looking for a wedding cake that combines artistry, flavor, and exceptional service, look no further! Thank you, Kiersten, for being a part of our special day!
