| - Can't give 10 stars so I'll settle for 5.
Future brides (and proactive grooms) Sunset Gardens is the real deal. Yes. I know you think there is a "fine print" section you think you missed when looking over there services (and prices) but believe me, they provide what they say will provide and more. Their service was amazing.
Pre-wedding:
Leading up to the wedding Sunset Gardens was always very prompt with responding back to me via phone call or email. No question too small. Everything was taken care of. 5 Stars.
Petals Florist: Natalie Hannigan did a wonderful job creating the perfect florals based on the vision I had for the wedding. She's direct and to the point...not a warm-fuzzy type. But that's not the point. I feel women are expected to be like Martha Stewart or something. 5 Stars
Tiers of Joy: Kathy Rude worked with me to create the perfect wedding cake AND a groom's cake. Even in her emails you just know Kathy is sweet and kind. It was especially awesome to have our free third tier on the wedding cake. (We had over 50 guests with the Something Blue package). The cakes looked exactly as I imagined. The taste for me seemed not as fresh as I'd hope. 3.5 Stars for taste and texture. 5 Stars for presentation
Bowtie Tuxedos. We went with David Bridal gowns and Men's Warehouse Tuxes. But due to the craziness of coordinating it all with wedding party all over the U.S. we could've just used the services offered by Sunset Gardens. The apparel looked great. We didn't use the service but from what I could see they have a great selection.
Joleon Salon: With our Something Blue package we had $100 credit toward salon service. Me and the Bride Squad were using the Glamsquad 702 for hair and makeup. I offered the credit to my mother-in-law but she wanted to hit the strip. So, I used the credit for my bridal mani. My nails looked perfect!!!! 5 Stars
Pastor Larry: Wow! Just wow! He was very warm, friendly, and funny. He made our ceremony fun and personable. Bonus, he even submitted our marriage license in a timely manner even though they were super busy and it was a holiday. Thank you Pastor Larry. 5 Stars
Anthony: Very friendly. Unlimited photography was included. Pictures are good for the price. Only one photographer. The session is fast. We get to download all pics and use a $50 credit for prints 5 Stars
Video Dave: Package upgrade. Dave was very nice. Our video was DVD. We don't own a Blu-Ray. But we're surprised the quality is so grainy. Quick-Turnaround a plus. 3.5 Stars
DJ Syd: In case you haven't figured it out by reading the other Yelp reviews, DJ Syd is da man!!!! I was a bride once and I read through the Yelp reviews and other third-party sites and one thing kept coming up as a hit or a miss for Sunset Gardens. The DJ. If you are a music enthusiast then you'll definitely want Syd. If you don't care and you just want some background noise then still book Syd. He's fantastic. He worked with me via email and phone calls to ensure the wedding music was just as I envisioned. He kept the party bumping and my friends and family really enjoyed themselves. 5 Stars
Which brings me to a side note...if you have the option and budget to add a bonus hour to your reception, ADD THE HOUR. At midnight we had to kick everyone out because we were paying for limo shuttles and those ain't cheap. We were sad to see everyone trying to stay for more but alas, the night was over. We underestimated how much fun our family and friends would have. One more hour would've been perfect to squeeze in more dancing and time to wind down the night.
Gigi: Our on-site wedding coordinator was our wedding angel. I don't know how else to describe her. Gigi I am sending you digital hugs right now. Can you feel them? Before we even stepped foot into Sunset Gardens we already confident our wedding would go perfectly. Gigi is da woman! (It'd be weird if I called her da man...) She handled us with warmth, wit, and patience. She's direct..this lady is on the move, but it's with YOUR wedding in mind. I don't know how she does it. I got a glimpse into her world and it's BUSY. Even my husband was impressed by how she made our important little details HER important little details. He was like, how did she remember our details and you can clearly see she works with hundreds of brides (or more) in a month. We are still amazed at her fine attention to details. We also appreciated Gigi stating guard for us while we enjoyed our meals. Everyone warns you that the bride and groom don't get a chance to eat. Sunset Gardens was very good at making sure the bride and groom sit, breathe, eat, and relax for a beat. 5 Stars to infinity
Food: We had the buffet with the the prime rib upgrade. Delicious. 5 Stars
Open Bar: Customize your bar...Our family loved our signature cocktail the "Perfect Match". No lines. Premium liquor. 5 Stars
Linens and decorations: Each wedding is different 5 Stars
