“Just wanted to follow up to let you know that everything turned out perfect for the shower!! The room looked great, the food was very tasty and Wanda and her team (Erin and Eldrige) were excellent!!!!! (Please pass that on to their managers…I want to make sure they know that they provided excellent customer service, which unfortunately is rare these days). Thanks again for all of your help as well.
