Sam worked with me throughout the whole process and made the changes I wanted, even the day of the wedding. I had made my own centerpieces and was allowed to bring in all of my boxes the day before and then they took them out of the boxes and set everything up for me. It was a true blessing since there is only an hour to decorate everything.
Amy ( I think that is her name) stayed for the whole wedding and helped give time reminders and make sure everything ran smoothly.
