There aren’t really any words to describe the wedding ceremony, happy hour, and reception that Melissa designed and brought to life for us. Melissa was a God send. If we didn’t have Melissa as our planner, I honestly think we would have had to push our wedding back a year (which would have not worked) or done the bare minimum which would have sucked. Not only was it the best night of our lives, our friends and family are still talking about the night a month later. She is super serious about every little detail and wouldn’t let any detail go unnoticed. Melissa became a FRIEND of ours over the 6 months she jammed to get this planned. And yes, I said she planned our wedding in SIX MONTHS. It LOOKED like it took a year to plan. Everything from the live Christmas trees, to the custom dance floor, the table design, the Hall of Fame happy hour (both my husband and I were college athletes) was one of a kind! Everything was MAGICAL. If you question the vibe of the room at all…..just take a look at our wedding video below. Thank you Melissa for making this the BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES. We love you and are SO glad we found you.

I couldn’t be any happier to have been recommended Melissa as a planner. From the very first phone call, she was attuned to what I wanted to achieve with the party from the looks to the atmosphere. Despite combating the flu, overcoming a death in the family, and a snowstorm the day of the party, her dedication was relentless with a flawless execution. She was very flexible with communication in terms of hours and methods which was very helpful since I was traveling across time zones during the party planning process. I was having difficulty visualizing some concepts and she promptly provided visual aids. Every last detail came together so nicely and many of my guests couldn’t stop raving about the beauty of the party. I highly recommend Melissa as she was beyond a pleasure to work with and had such an easy going personality but kept it honest when I tried to shortchange some things that would compromise the big picture. She even helped pick out the outfit so that it would go well with the theme of the party.

Melissa was AMAZING! Professional, detail oriented and took care of all the little things so I didn’t have to. This allowed me to focus on the event itself. Even more incredible than the work she does is the manner in which she does it – very personable and goes above and beyond expectations!

Honey Bee Creative really focuses on making your vision for your event come to life. For my wedding, she talked through everything with me and gave ideas and perspective. She upheld awesome relationships with vendors which built trust and great quality service from everyone! She went above and beyond. Even traveled from NY to ATL to do a venue visit before the wedding! Was very attentive to detail which was a big thing for me. It’s the small and intimate things that make a wedding special and she was sure to highlight those. Overall, wonderful experience working with Honey Bee!

The company was exceptional. The level of professionalism and flexibility was beyond what I could imagine. The timeline that was proposed at the onset of planning the event was on point and executed exactly as documented. The creative ideas flowed with such easy that the pressure was lifted off my shoulders, likewise, the flexibility offered was beyond.
Will definitely use the services of this company again without hesitation. Lastly, the value for me in using this company was priceless!

We always dreamed of having a Classy Carnival themed wedding. We wanted fun and prestige at the same time. It proved to be a true challenge, because all Honey Bee Creative had to work with was a soccer field. HOWEVER on the event date, the space was transformed! Not only was it perfectly setup, decorated and designed, but everyone forgot they were on a field, because we were all so in awe of the beautiful scenery surrounding us, no matter which way we turned. Even at night, our space transformed again as our showstopping Stillwater tent was illuminated with chic uplighting. During the planning process (or FUN, because you’ll find yourself looking forward to the communication) Honey Bee Creative constantly grasped a firm concept of not only our design preferences, but our taste in amusement and overall purpose of the event. Every decorative detail, activity, even the food options were so intentional (food trucks) and formulated to reflect my husband and I. Our Classy Carnival represented us to a T; from the ceremony arbor, to the custom entry doors, striped tablecloths to the glorious hanging centerpieces, to the modern jazz band, videogame arcade, stilt Walker (and other Roving Entertainment), Aerial Acrobatics, and the list goes on! Our guests were just as thrilled as we were! Even when the event was over, we received several compliments, thank you’s and many professing that from the invitations to the actual wedding, they had never experienced anything like it before, and it was the best event they had been to in a very long time. I cannot wait until we have another event, so we can hire Honey Bee Creative!
