“.... I just wanted to extend my gratitude also for helping (okay basically planning everything) to make our day so special. There is no way we could have planned such an amazing wedding...all the details that you worked out..we would have never thought about all of them. And you made the whole process much less daunting and less stressful.
And We're still getting compliments on how it all turned out...the food, the decor, the flow.
Thank you again Amanda for everything. You're the best and would happily recommend you and the works.”

Thanks again for all your help in planning for the wedding and making sure everything went flawlessly, especially with so many people to coordinate with! We had a wonderful time and absolutely loved how the space worked for both the ceremony and the party. We really appreciate all your advice and answers for our many questions (and the thoughtful plate so I could also appreciate the great food)."”
- Amy and Brett, Housingworks Bookstore Wedding
““I’m so grateful that we found you guys when we were planning our wedding— it was the absolute perfect place. Everything about Housing Works was wonderful. We got so many comments on how cool the space was, the food was absolutely fantastic, and the cake was, hands-down, the best either of us had ever had (and most of our guests agreed). You guys worked with our budget and gave us a more beautiful wedding than we thought we could afford, which was amazing (and I don’t think happens too often).
Thank you both for all the work you put into our wedding in the months planning it and on the day and night of the event. You guys, and Housing Works, are the best.””
- Annie and Dave, Housingworks Bookstore Wedding
