We recently hosted our wedding at The Water Club and it was an absolutely phenomenal experience. The venue, food, location and staff were top notch and made our day so special. Highly recommend!!
It was such a beautiful venue, great for birthday parties, reunions, any kind of large get together. It’s gorgeously decorated and really spacious. The staff are great as well.
Imperia Lake Union staff and venue went above and beyond my expectations! The venue was clean, classy, and had a tasteful design that extra decorations were minimal on my part. In addition, Tasia Fisher (Director of Events) was AMAZING! She was prompt, calm, and collected. She made sure my wedding day went smoothly but that we were taken care of along the way. The food tasting exceeded our expectations and guests raved about it afterwards. The only thing I wish I did differently was extend my wedding longer because I didn't want to leave! :) If you want a magical and beautiful wedding, then Imperia Lake Union is your wedding venue. I'd give them 10 stars - they are the best!
This place was very nice for my family's gathering! They even offer valet parking. The only suggestions are maintenance/renovations. The bathrooms look very old, and are very cramped. They're okay for what they are, but they definitely could be better. Also, the door that we entered to the venue has a 2, maybe 3 inch step down. It was very hard to see this especially at night, and one of my older family members fell and hit their head. Had to call EMT:( PLEASE make this step more visible. The tape saying "watch your step" was worn down and difficult to see. Please make this step as obvious as you can. Ty!

The Water Club was the most perfect venue I could have imagined for my August 2023 wedding! Everything detail was incredible from the food, the spaces, the views, and the dedicated staff. We had the pleasure of working with Elle and could not have felt luckier! She and her team flawlessly executed every detail of the wedding and not only accommodated, but went above and beyond for every special request we had. Elle was also incredibly responsive throughout the planning process and in the lead up to the wedding. All of our guests raved about the venue. The ceremony was beautifully set up and the Crow's Nest was the perfect venue for the cocktail hour and after party. We would highly recommend the Water Club to anybody looking for a beautiful, classic NYC venue with phenomenal service! The Water Club was easily the best choice we made for our wedding.

Amazing service at this venue. Everything was organized so perfectly. Both women who helped me and my mom were so helpful and kind. I placed a picture of me and my mom at my sweet 16 event. It all went very smoothly because of the service provided at villa Russo.
Clean and big event center. Service was poor. We needed the broom to sweep the dollar bills that were sprayed the celebrant. The staff snatched it out of our hands. Staff was very very hostel toward us all. They almost ruined our day. But we were determined to have a joyous day. We had our own Caterer and brought in our food. We were not able to heat our food up because we did not use their Caterer. Therefore, guests were forced to eat cold food. Very very mean towards us because we did not use their Caterer.
Watch out....

This was such a beautiful place to have our wedding!! The people were wonderfully helpful and kind, the park was a fantastic place to hold the ceremony, and the reception venue was perfect! It’s such a great space that requires little extra decorating. We got the candle package and had flower arrangements on the tables, and it was perfect! Our guests raved about the delicious food, the rooms to get ready in were so comfortable and creative, and the service was fantastic. Overall, it was all so great and Imperia was the best place we could have chosen to get married!

Our wedding was on 8/20/2023.
We choose all inclusive package,everything came out beautiful more than we expected. With the help of Kim and her staff,specially Eric who was with us from the beginning to the end of the wedding.Made us feel comfortable and he took care of all our needs.
Thank you Villa Russo for making our dream wedding came true.
The reason I give 5 starts is because there is no ten to give.
Food is not good , I attended 4 wedding reception in last 4-5 years and they are consistent serving the same non authentic Indian food. From appetizers to main course & deserts they were all flat in the taste. If all other venues are booked for the season and you don’t have a choice you are welcome book the event here.
Ambiance is ok without proper wallet parking.

I hope this review help other & management could improve.

We had my parents 50th anniversary celebration here and it was amazing. Kim Russo helped with the planning and she ensured that every detail was taken care of. I will definitely have more celebrations at this facility. Thank you to Kim and her staff. Everything was amazing!!!!
If I could give less than one star I would. I haven't had my wedding yet. Back in June 2022 we toured it and we were super excited and we signed the contract and all the questions I was asking and got answers to it are now not the case in August 2023. They finnesed their way around it and now I'm paying the price for it. They have threatened with lawyers and always have an attitude when I speak with them, never told me about the ONE catering option they have. So Liz at Great Blue Harron is SUPER rude and doesn't care about customers. She talks to you like you are dumb. I am glad I canceled and would honestly tell people TO NEVER GET MARRIED HERE.
Beautiful Expressions made my dream Barbie Party come true. The decor was over the top. It was absolutely the best event experience I ever had and I throw events all the time. Customer service was excellent and the vision was exceeded. I recommend you book your next event with Beautiful Expressions! Thanks

I saw a lot of hype and praise about this venue and was super excited. The venue was so beautiful and gorgeous yet small so I was disappointed. Service was nice but I had to pick up some of the food myself while the staff held the platter and they didn’t serve our table when it came to serving dessert. Bathroom was nice and clean with lotion and other items. Food wasn’t great and was decent. I had high expectations. Overall everything was pretty okay, I did enjoy being there. Wish it was bigger and that service could be better.
If only I could give negative stars. The worst experience. Staff rude, place dirty, bathroom dirty, decorations fell during the wedding. They rushed through everything for the food service. Bar service was horrible, food service area was horrible. My niece had her wedding there this past weekend and guest were made to wait outside because there was no one there. Staff treated the vendors we used horribly. Don't get me started on the Rupee lady, what a con woman. Never recommending. Never again....

We couldn't have been more thrilled about hosting our wedding reception at Imperia! From the moment you walk into this venue you feel it's a memorable and special place :) the decor is top notch! It is a DANCE VENUE! We couldn't have hosted the dance party we did without the space of Imperia. It was idyllic. From the very beginning, JJ and Tasia were so communicative, accommodating, and focused on creating the event of our dreams! JJ's flowers matched the paper products my mom made PERFECTLY. It made for such a cohesive, polished look. Tasia was so flexible with our "alternative " requests for a private dinner in the back (just my husband and I) and for edible centerpieces that were a HIT! Tasia kept the night moving on a timeline so smoothly I just got to sit back and enjoy the ride. Our guests couldn't stop complimenting the efficiency and professionalism of the staff. The food was unbelievable! Best wedding food I've ever had, they even boxed up the leftovers for us at the end of the night! The fact they do their own food, drink, and flowers made our wedding planning much simpler! If you want to feel like you've landed in the middle of a Gatsby party or if you want to throw the dance party of a lifetime, do not hesitate and BOOK IMPERIA!
My son had his Hindu Wedding Ceremony here and it was magnificent. Thanks to Rupee and her staff for taking care of every little detail. I was very pleased with the service we received. If you are looking for a venue that does everything for you then this is the place.

Had dinner here with two friends on a Saturday night. Great view, excellent location. Food was decent but portion was small.
OMG, I don’t know where to begin! Beautiful Expressions did an amazing job decorating for my mother’s surprise retirement dinner. I was in awe when I walked in the venue and saw how it was so elegantly decorated. The professionals at Beautiful Expressions are top notch.
The event hall was decorated elegantly. The staff was attentive, professional, and friendly.
We had our wedding here in May 2023 and had a really amazing experience working with the staff and the caterer at Woodlands. In leading up to the wedding, both teams were always very responsive to our questions and easy to work with. The day of the event, the staff was helpful during set up, had prepped the linens we dropped off the day before, and ensured that the catering went smoothly. The caterer went above and beyond for our event as I have multiple food allergies, and they created a custom menu to be served for the day completely free of my allergens. Additionally, they adapted the bar menu offerings to ensure those would be safe as well. On top of this, they adapted to individual guests who had their own allergies, so everyone was able to be well fed, safe, and enjoy the night. At the end of the day, the staff on site helped us tear down the event, providing us bags and helping gather items of ours from the tables. Overall, Woodlands was an amazing choice for a venue and Great Blue Heron was a fantastic caterer.
We were lucky enough to have our wedding reception at Imperia in June 2022 and are still raving about the experience!!

First, we initially booked pre-covid, and Imperia was extremely helpful and accommodating during the challenges of cancellations and postponements, as well as in navigating safety protocols. We are so grateful.

Second, and most importantly, Tasia and the entire staff at Imperia truly know what they are doing, and we felt so lucky to have been in their hands. The planning was easy and straightforward, and as soon as we arrived after our church ceremony (and they so brilliantly provided my husband and me with food and drinks!), I felt my stress level recede--it was so easy to have FUN with our loved ones knowing things were working beautifully behind the scenes. All of our guests raved about the food and venue (I still dream about the chimichurri steak!). We felt well-taken care of the whole night, and things ran so smoothly. We were also able to stash a few sleeping babies and a babysitter in one of the lounges—game changer!

Finally, I wanted to share that although we love the art deco elements of the venue, we chose not to amplify them in our decor and it worked beautifully! Lots of options at this venue to play up your own style.
From the first day that I met Jacinta, I knew that was the person I wanted to do business with for the Anniversary Celebration. She heard and understood the vision. Her ideas and suggestions were welcomed, appreciated, and wonderful. On the day of the event, she and her team arrived on time 5:30am. They were happy, pleasant, friendly, and very professional in spite of it being so early in the morning. The vision had become a reality, it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! Throughout the celebration, all you heard was wow, this is beautiful, who did this, etc., but to hear the Pastor say WOW and to see the First Lady eyes when they walked into the room, you knew it was what they wanted. Later, they indicated that the mark was hit and Beautiful Expressions did an outstanding job. I would most definitely would use them again!!! Thank you Beautiful Creations
Beautiful Expressions is amazing! Thank you so much for donating to my school, the kids absolutely loved it! Throughout the entire process you have been nothing but positive and welcoming. I truly appreciate you helping me give my students the fun day they deserved!! I wish I could give you 10 stars instead of 5!
Overall, we loved our wedding at the Woodlands at Algonkian and would do it again. They were even flexible when we had to unexpected move our wedding up a month (8 months out from the original date) and didn't charge us a fee. If we were rating just the venue itself, and staff, we would give it 4.5 starts while Great Blue Heron (the mandatory catering company) would receive 3 stars.

The venue was beautiful and the staff readily answered all of our questions over the year leading up to our May 2023 wedding with 70 guests. The outdoor arch, inside stone fireplace, bridal suite, buffet room, and main reception space were all clean and beautiful and made our day special. The price was also reasonable. Our small complaints with the venue/staff were 1) the staff was always quick to answer our questions, but didn't always provide very detailed responses; 2) to make payments they emailed a credit card authorization form with no information filled out (amount due, amount paid, etc); 3) the fire pit was not lit for our wedding, even though we asked specifically for that to be written into the contract; and 4) we never saw the day of coordinator on our wedding day.

As for Great Blue Heron, the food was amazing (both apps and dinner). However, many of our guests complained that 1) they never saw all four types of apps that were being passed or that they only got one app (our wedding was only 70 people and we were supposed to have over 400 apps total); 2) the salads were picked up when guests went to the buffet, even though they had just sat down and didn't get to eat the salad; and 3) drinks were picked up when only half full during dancing. We, the couple, also found Great Blue Heron to be a bit difficult to work with leading up to the wedding. We typically only got timely responses if we sent our questions along with a payment. We also found that things we communicated to Great Blue Heron (menu, guest count, etc) were not passed on to the venue staff so we had to have many conversations twice.

I had my company staff party here and it was such a great experience! The staff were all attentive and incredibly helpful. The food was INCREDIBLE!!!! They kept the wine coming, and my colleagues and I all enjoyed ourself so much! It's a NYC staple that i had always heard about my entire life. I'm so glad to have been able to come here.
What a lovely venue for a wedding! We photographed a number of couples getting married at The Woodlands at Algonkian, and we loved how perfect the facilities are for a marriage celebration. The outdoor ceremony space is absolutely lovely. You exchange your rings and vows under a cute pergola, and the slight embankment on which your guests sit means there are no bad seats in the house. The reception space is indoors, and is large enough to accommodate a pretty sizable wedding. The most notable elements there are the huge glass windows that look out onto the verdant golf course and the old stone fireplace on one side of the room. So if you like the idea of a wedding venue in a beautiful rural setting that also has all the amenities of an indoor facility, The Woodlands at Algonkian could be a good fit for you.

Beautiful Expressions assisted in my last-minute week before the preparation of a cast party. The event turned out lovely. Prior to that, I had set a budget of $5000 as I wanted everything to look upscale and well put together. I had the event at a photography studio where drapes and pipes had to be used to add elegance to the room. As the event space was previously a car part warehouse. After seeing the venue, the owner called me with a quote of $4,500. I asked for a receipt for my tax purposes and was declined and told that she can send me a contract that reflects the amount. She stated that they do not provide itemized receipts. I agreed and left it at that, again it was down to the wire, days away from the event and I needed all the assistance I could get.
The next day after paying in full. I mentioned to her that I would like to know how much each item cost as you can imagine $4500 is not a little bit of money. I was made to feel as if I was wrong for wanting to know where my money was being spent. Instead, I was fed excuses about it being Mother's Day weekend and "we aren't dealing with a blank canvas." She threatened to release and refund my money all because I asked for an itemized receipt, she couldn't explain exactly what or how much each item cost, and then she stated how she wasn't even getting paid for this event. However, also mentioned that she was getting paid only 500. And that I was stressing her out.

I don't understand why such a fight had to be put on because I asked for a receipt showing me how much each item cost. I mean, I am the customer. Because it was last minute, I went along with it. The turnout was DECENT. It looked well put together, however nowhere in that room did I see $4,500 worth of items, and my team agreed. I have pictures to confirm.

I'm currently commenting only on wedding preparation and the food tasting. The venue is exactly what my daughter was looking for, they've been extremely helpful in her early preparations. We went in for a food tasting and we're thrilled with what we tasted. There are so many options very consistently well prepared it made it actually hard to choose a menu. Just check out the pictures. Looking forward to the event, I will repost.

The Imperia is the perfect wedding venue. The staff are professional, kind, and so supportive. They helped us get everything we wanted out of our wedding. From the food and wine tasting, to the floral design, to the coordination, to the suggested vendor list- they seriously made our wedding the most perfect day. Wedding planning is stressful, even for a very prepared and loving couple. The Imperia made it so much less stressful, took so much weight off of us and made the process fun and enjoyable even. That’s hard to do! They run their business with integrity and love and it absolutely shows. We had the most perfect, beautiful wedding because of them and I will never stop being thankful for that. I can’t wait to find another reason to have a party there- they’re seriously that good! So just book it- do it!

Jacinta and her team did an amazing job for my parent’s anniversary! I just told her the colors and theme and in return she turned the venue into a beautiful escape from reality. She was very professional and friendly!
Skyline production did an amazing job at my wedding and reception. The whole team was also super helpful before the wedding with their careful planning and preparation. Everyone was easy to work with and did everything to make sure our day went well! The team also did amazing work with our photos and videos!

As a photographer, I love the Imperia Lake Union! They have a great place for a wedding under the very cool art deco main ballroom ceiling and chandeliers that gets even better during the reception. The arrangement of the tables around the center dancefloor makes the space feel more intimate and inclusive of the guests as they can hang out at their tables and feel a part of the event when they aren't dancing. They are also very close to some nice place for portraits either walking or a very short drive to Gas Works, UW or just walking down to Fairview Avenue and Park. And finally, their staff is a joy to work with. They are very organized and helpful as well as just being nice people.

Imperia Lake Union has done some beautiful remodeling over the past couple of years. It still has it's intimate, vintage charm but with some added glam and polishing. Immediately when touring, we felt like it was "the one", but it also checked very important logistical boxes too. It was super easy for guests to get to from Seattle, it had on-site suites if we decided to get ready there, it accommodated outdoor ceremonies but could switch to indoor if there was an unexpected weather issue, and most importantly - we had the option for in-house florals, catering, and great bar options.

JJ created the most gorgeous florals and went above and beyond to accommodate pick-ups, deliveries, etc. including some unexpected delivery asks that I didn't know about until well after the wedding. She just handled it without hesitation.

Tasia was also super on top of every detail. Anything I ever mentioned in email to her would be noted on our file almost immediately. It was super clear what our package included, what add-ons were available, and I always received a response within a day or two.

Most importantly, the team at Imperia works hard to bring your vision to life. I'm sure I may have been one of the more particular brides - I had pretty specific visions of what I wanted for decor, food, and florals. But they never made me feel like a nuisance, they just worked with me to get it done. Trusting wedding vendors is hard because you have no idea what's going to happen until it's the big day! And you either sink, or swim. Thinking about how beautifully Imperia executed actually makes me teary. My breath was taken away when I saw our venue and everything managed by Imperia (food, florals, decor) brought a huge smile to my face.

I can't tell you how many people complimented us on the food and the decor. I had one vendor tell us it was the best wedding meal they had been given all year. I had other guests (both young and old) tell us it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to.

Imperia is truly a unique and special venue. I'm glad we got in when we did, because it's only going to continue to grow. I could easily think of 1000 more great things to say, but the point is - everyone there freaking rocks. From the event planning team to the bartenders, everyone was amazing.

Tiju and the Skyline team was amazing in every sense of the word. My wife and I can’t explain how great everything went and turned out from our E-shoot experience to our wedding. They are very accommodating and a great team to work with. The team went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. The photos, videos and live stream were amazing. The pictures looked so good from our E-shoot, we had a hard time choosing which one was the best to put up on our wedding. They are the best in the game and we highly suggest that everyone goes to them!! If anyone considering Skyline don’t think twice, seriously amazing!!!

Had my daughter’s Sweet 16 with Glam Events and it was beyond amazing!!!!! Marlene exceeded all my expectations. The staff is amazing, super friendly, super organized. Everyone had an amazing time. I will be doing all major events with Glam Events and so should you!
Marlene was wonderful to work with. We had been looking for a hall for my sisters baby shower and weren’t having any luck. I messaged her and was able to see the hall the very next day and immediately decided we were taking it. It was very clean and spacious and pretty. She was professional and friendly and helped us have the perfect baby shower. We decided on the assistant as an add on and wow! It was definitely the right choice. Our assistant was amazing. I’d whole heartedly recommend marlene and this event space for any event you may have.

Wow! What can i say about Marlene and her crew! I had the best baby shower ever! She took care of everything, my vision came to life! From the decor, set up, cake, table set up, bartender, asst, the list goes on! Hands down the best party planner and decor in the NYC area! I didnt have to worry about anything! Just walk in ! From her event assistant who took care of every detail while at the party, heating up food, food distribution, clean up, packing, etc) to the Bartender who made sure everything was organized. I ended up having a band and she made sure to make space where they can perform and still have space to dance. The photo-booth was super fun and the person in charge made it super easy! Honestly! I cant thank her enough! Highly recommend her!
My baby shower turned out so beautiful I want to relive the moment. I went with a baby bear themed baby shower and when I tell you I literally was crying after after the baby shower. She went above and beyond my expectations. There’s nothing like good communication through out the whole process and hers was great. I told her what wanted and she did it but x10 with her own creative mind I trusted her and I was shocked walking through the doors , I couldn’t stop thanking her. Definitely my go to for any event now. I’m so glad I picked beautiful expression.

Great setting on the edge of a golf course, the event I went to had a great lunch buffet with salads sandwiches and fruit. Not sure if it was catered in-house. The great room easily accommodates 150 people.
Golden Terrace is an amazing place to throw any event possible! The staff is attentive and very helpful! Roopi helped plan our event and was very patient with us. During the event even when changes need to take place they were able to accommodate without a fuss. Thank you for helping us plant a successful event!

Skyline Productions did an amazing job with my wedding and reception. I couldn't be more impressed with how professionally they handled our issues with rescheduling because of the COVID pandemic. They were attentive and flexible in dealing with any issues that arose as well. The photographers and videographers made us feel really comfortable and had amazing ideas for poses and getting great shots and clips for the wedding video. We are so happy with how our pictures and videos came out and would recommend this company to anyone looking for a professional, hard working team that will accommodate your needs and deliver an outstanding product.

I was here for an event held by the, Committee Noviembre, for Hispanic Heritage Month. This is a beautiful venue with breathtaking views of the Ed Kotch 59th Street Bridge, Roosevelt Island and Long Island City. The service is always impeccable and the food and orduerves were very tasty. The evening was wonderful, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves very much. I would return again given the opportunity and would probably come for brunch in the future.
I married in 2018. September in this place. When I ask inquiries, quick response and easy to book appointment. Very affordable price for us with special holiday discount. Large own parking lot-no confusion and no charging fee. Large hall with high ceiling, extra room for catering service which available bring my own choice. I have option to choose that do ceremony inside or outside. I chose outside yard area right infront of venue.there is ni e wood arch in there so I decorated with flower and white curtains. They offered table and chairs that what I needed and setting before on time . Wood floor for dance space too. Large windows I can see that beautiful green trees with large golf yard. We has photo shot in there too. It came out so beautifully with nature! My wedding was so perfect in this place. High recommended.
The Woodlands at Algonkian was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was the one. We loved the rustic yet modern look and every staff member we encountered was very nice and helpful. Jazmine was super attentive to all our needs leading up to the wedding day. DJ, the kitchen captain, was super welcoming and made sure we were well fed on our wedding day.

Overall this venue exceeded our expectations. Everything was beautiful and perfect!
A top notch professional photographer that has a very unique style of taking pictures in any part of the world.

We were hired by Real Fairytale Weddings to provide our photo booth service to one of their clients and we had an excellent experience!
I recently used Skyline Productions for a photobooth at a formal event and was extremely impressed with their services. They arrived early and on time and were set up well before guests were expected to arrive. There were 2 attendants who managed the photobooth for the entire 4 hour event, including managing the camera and printing out the photos. Their equipment and technology are all state of the art and worked smoothly the whole event.
It was a hit with our guests and they were taking photos the entire night! There was a huge selection of fun props and they even brought specific props relating to us medical students! They loved the instant print out after each 3-photo session as it is a nice keepsake to bring home. We also received a link with all of the digital photos of the night and made it available to our guests.
I would give them my highest recommendation for anyone needing a photobooth!
Love the photo booth they set up at my school's event. Was able to be provided props and cute signs for me and my girlfriend to look awesome with. Photo booth also provided actual print out of quality photos and we were laterp rovided a link to download our photos in digital form. Couldn't ask for more!

I worked with Skyline Productions for my medical school formal. I mean it when I say this: but everything about them was great. Complete professionals. They offer many services. We used them for their photo booth and DJ services. Everyone at the event loved the photo-booth. They had great props and the print outs were wonderful. The red carpet and backdrop they provided was spectacular. Everyone that I spoke to at the formal said they loved it. The Skyline team were polite, cordial, and knew how to interact with guests. Often times at large gatherings, there is always an issue with a guest. However, not only did no one complain, people came up to me with outstanding complements regarding Skyline. As for the DJ- he was amazing. He catered to the crowd and kept it lively. This team was phenomenal. I will definitely recommend them to other people, and I will also hire them again if given the opportunity. Special shout out to Mr. Tiju as he was extremely easy to work with and truly a great professional. Very reasonably priced. Truly amazing job they did!
Nelly is just so amazing and her entire crew are so professional
We had our wedding at this venue a couple of weeks ago. We loved the location, the staff, the food and everything in between. Special thanks to Maren for making this experience so easy. She was quick to respond, easy to work with and overall a really nice person to work with. The food, well we can say enough good things about it, we loved it all. They were nice enough to let us bring a couple of recipes from our country to make for our guest and even our families gave it thumbs up. If you are looking for a wedding venue, look no more. The value for what you get is more than worth it. They met and surpassed our expectations!
Very specious hall. Marble floor and Beautiful interiors with DJ lights. Nice and cool a/c running.Good food and drinks. Very clean professional service. Valet parking available.
Very specious main stage, ample room for group photos.
Professional bar and bar tenders.
Main lobby has all you can eat buffet service and restaurant. You can bring your own food.
The videography and photobooth service they provided were amazing, great group of guys and a great company to work with. I recommend them to my friends wedding so I'll be seeing them soon.

Beautiful views of long island city. Bread comes as corn muffins scones, sourdough as well as other selections. Dress nicely as you admire the ships as they pass while drinking cocktails and seafood. They also have some memorabilia of nautical historical significance which you can check out while there.
They call themselves "Real Fairytale Weddings" and this name totally fits their work. My husband and I were absolutely blown away when we set our eyes on our wedding decor. We had a real fairy tale wedding, a wedding which we have received and continue to receive so many compliments regarding the decor. A wedding, which has been described by many as "wedding of the year" and comments such as "the bars have been set too high". Besides the decor, the customer service and professionalism offered was outstanding. We can definitely say that the cost of the decor was worth every penny and even more. Try "Real Fairytale Weddings" for your special day, and you would not be disappointed.
Omg!! Where to begin...Ike, Nelly and the whole team brought my visions to life!! I could not believe the venue when I walked in. The decor was top notch. I told them I wanted class and elegance for my reception decor, and that was exactly what they delivered! My guests were pleased 🤗 I didn't even want to leave the reception venue at the end of the night 😂
WOW is all I can say ... THANK YOU THANK YOU to Nelly and her team they did an amazing job coordinating and decorating our wedding . Nelly is a wonderful wedding planner she kept me on track with everything I needed to get done ,she is a life saver. Day of the wedding the RFTW team was outstanding ,they made sure everything was taken care.
If you are looking for a wedding coordinator or a decorator Real Fairytale Weddings is who you should go with, they are professionals and know their job .YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED
Very good service, thank you!!!

Cool place that let us make last minute reservations. They open at 12 p.m. Sundays every other day at 5 p.m. We made the reservation for Sunday brunch around 11:15 for the 12 p.m. brunch they gladly accepted us. Be careful getting there because you have to cross the FDR and try to avoid the runners/bikers in both directions it seems like everyone and their mama runs this path. Nicely decorated clean with a snooty feel but actually had very nice Waiters/hosts that check on you numerous times... I got up once during my meal and came back to a folded napkin and straightened area my friend informed me the waitress did that. The views of the East River were great and the food was surprisingly tasty I have to admit I thought it would be bland. They bring you warm cranberry scones and banana nut bread while you wait we got them straight out of the oven. Reservations should be highly considered this place fills up fast with groups of people and I do mean groups... about 98% were senior citizens dressed to the nines we felt kind of out of place for a minute but it was cool. I'm sure dinner time is a madhouse.
I met Briana during an Event in DC. She was very bubbly and energetic. Upon meeting, she immediately told me about an event she was organizing. She even followed up with me via email and invited me to her event. I always use event planners for my events so I thought I should check it out. I bought a ticket to attend the event she was organizing. I prepaid $70 to attend this event (this was in Jan). When I showed up to the event, there was no one at the venue. I called Briana and she said that event has been cancelled but she tried to reach out to me (even though we have been corresponding via email/cell & I didn't receive an email, voicemail or even a text on either). I was extremely angry at first but Briana was apologetic and she said that she will reschedule for February. In February, on the day of the event I reached out to Briana first before driving out to the venue. And of course, she said that the event was cancelled again and she was "just" about to call me. She offered to refund everyone's money. It is now May. I have emailed Briana on the email we have been corresponding & via her website about the refund. I have called her on her cell phone, as well as work line and left messages. It is not about $70 at this point. I am horrified that this is a company that brides use. How an EVENT PLANNER can create "fake" events to charge & con people is beside me. I checked out her other reviews on Weddingwire and found out that she has done shady transactions before. There were complaints that she wrote bad checks & did not pay vendors. It is scary to think that she can ruin someone's special day by not paying vendors. I know Briana will not respond to any of the emails/phone calls I had made over the past 3 months, but I hope Briana reads this review and realizes that on the very least people will vocalize their "con" experiences with her.

We selected Skyline Productions to design our businesses new website after rave reviews from a colleague. They made sure they had a clear understanding of the image we were hoping to portray and brought many great suggestions to the table. It was an easy process and the results were more than we could have hoped for. I'm totally impressed; I feel very comfortable recommending their company to others.
