OK, sorry this is really late, but better late than never. I found the reviews very helpful, so good luck!
Rehearsal Dinner- Anthony's Steakhouse- A+
They were so easy to work with, beautiful place, quiet, courteous staff, fantastic food. Absolutely no issues with them.
Flowers- Debbie Pitt- A+++
She is fantastic. She is out of a flower design studio in Millard area. She is wonderful, works with your budget, has great ideas and our flowers looked BRILLIANT! We had a small flower budget and she surpassed our every need. She was always on time and pleasant.
Cake- The Cakery- A+
Again, no complaints. They were all wonderful, on time, the cake looked amazing. Just stunning, better than I could have ever thought. It was delicious! Everyone had wonderful things to say about it.
Invites- American Wedding- A
It is an online site, you can typically find online coupons also and so they all turn out to be a decent price. Ours were simple, yet they looked expensive. They were very elegant. They have something for everyone!
Omaha Fiesta Bus - C
I went with these guys because it was college world series time and everywhere else was taken. It was less than decent. the bus is worn down and dirty. NO AIR CONDITIONING!!!!! Are you Crazy???? When you book this thing, they should have mentioned this. UMmmm, Im booking it for a wedding, they should have said, great, but do you realize we do not have ac and therefore, all of the windows will be down and your hair will be flying all over???? Nooo. Anyways, so they didnt know where they were going they were just not professional at all. Dissapointing. Obviously not wedding appropriate.
Lauritzen Gardens- A+
That place is just amazing. It was our dream venue. We loved it. You work with Kim and she is so nice, and can tell you what does and doesnt work. She will truely help you when ever she can, she is so sweet and the place does not have a downside if you tried.
United rental- B
We used them because they work with our venue. They were setting up our alter thing outside litterally 10 mins before our ceremony. Uhhh, that should have been done a long time ago.
Thunderhead Entertainment- DJ- B
At first, we were verrryyy hesitant. When they answer the phone, etc, they are not very professional. The lady who books, organizes music etc is a little off and sometimes you worry a little. In the end it was great. They did a good job. The DJ definately knows what he is doing, they were on time, nice, did a great job and I was very happy with them in the end. They also come to your rehearsal, which was a little unsual, but it was nice. They do it for timing, etc and that gives you a little more of a warm and fuzzy. I would definately use them again.
Hap Abraham- D+
The food was of course, fantastic. They are definately good at their food. Their service definately needs to be worked on. We were supposed to have 2 bars, we only had one, when my mother, my sister in law went to ask them about it they said there was nothing they could do and were snotty. So, I went up and asked them. The lady looked at me, shrugged her shoulders and said not her problem. I made her call the manager and they were forced to do a makeshift bar where we wanted it, but finally got set up half way through the receptioon. They were rude to our guests and several guests let us know it. They had the balls to ask me, how long my wedding was going to last because they were going to run out of beer. I was furious. One of my guests heard them call me a B(*&^%, they refused to get a guest olives because they were in the back and she "really didint want to walk back there", they were just horrible. When I called to inform them the next week, we got a "there are two sides to every story attitiude and only given our money back for the messed up bar" it was just crazy. Of all of the things in our wedding, they are what we regret the most, which is sad because it was the most expensive. There are so many other caterers out there who truely care about your day, but not these guys.
Comfort Inn- 72nd- B
They were geat to work with and the rooms were amazing. I would use them again.
