Kait & Ryan's Wedding
Palm Springs, CA, USA, September, 2007
"Our wedding was truly the best day & weekend ever!!! You can't beat the sunshine in Palm Springs. September is hot but it worked out well for us. Our family & friends absolutely LOVED the location, food and drink! It was perfect in many ways. Wedding Mapper was a great resource to share with our guests from a few states & towns. "
Coordinators/Planners
ARTISAN
Palm Springs, CA, USAArtisan handled our flowers, day of coordination, table rentals, chairs, guest valet and the DJ. They know how to talk a good talk but the end result is not up to par. We provided many samples of what we wanted for the table centerpieces. They weren't even close. We gave the DJ a list of over 5 hours of music to play. One of those songs were played twice! That entire process was extremely frustrating. Our day of coordination consisted of him asking me what time everyone needed to be where. Some guests arrived and the valet crew was not yet there. The tables were not numbered or noted. The wedding party flowers were the only decent part of the day. Artisan should stick to doing flowers.
Caterers
LE VALLAURIS
Palm Springs, CA, USAWe had our rehearsal dinner/shower at their restaurant the night before. They also catered our wedding. Everyone could not say enough about how delicious the food was & drinks were a plenty! Jean Paul is extremely talented when it comes to yummy food and so many choices too. Le Vallauris is 1st class all the way. And much more honest & up front with you over other wedding vulture vendors out there.
