Preferred Partners

I am proud to recommend the the following event venues and professionals.  Although I am not affiliated with these businesses in any way, these these are people that I work with regularly and who take are of my customers on a continuous basis.  They are all professional, affordable and reliable.  Unlike other Event Planners, I DO NOT receive a 3rd party referral commission from any of these vendors.  Instead, I pass on the savings to my customers.   Please be sure to tell these people that you found them through me, should you decide to contact them and do your due diligence accordingly when researching vendors:)
