We received so many fabulous comments about the Wedding Show on Sunday. We thought we would share a few:

"I know I said it yesterday but you did an amazing job on the 2009 Wedding show. I thought it was spectacular!!! I think that everyone could say it was one of the best yet!"

Gail Brommell, Catering Manager at Brock House Restaurant

"BRAVO!!!

CONGRATULATIONS ON A VERY SUCCESSFUL BROCK HOUSE WEDDING SHOW!

ONCE AGAIN, THE DREAMGROUP TEAM WAS AMAZING TO WORK WITH.

This was your best show yet! "

Jan Trerise, Musical Occasions


"We wanted to send a huge “Thank You” to all of you for another incredible show. We love doing the Brock House show and it is all so easy when we work with all you.

Thank you so much for another successful show.

See you next year."

Polaroid's New Instant Digital Camera

The new era of Polaroid cameras introduces the Pogo and instant digital prints to the world of weddings. No more shaking your prints and waiting till the image appears. All of the color is in the paper itself so there's no messy toner or ink.

A great new option for your guestbook or just to have some fun!

A "Shout Out" to be Shared

We usually save testimonials we receive for the Testimonial Page, but this "shout out" had to be shared on a greater level as it encompasses so well what every DreamGroup Planner strives for in creating a memorable wedding planning experience. Thank you to Shauna for taking the time to share your experience.

Dear Geneve,

We were so fortunate to have been able to work with you for our wedding. Simply put, you are amazing.

I’ve said it before, but there were just so many times when you surprised and delighted me by thinking of extra thoughtful ideas and going the extra mile on so many occasions. You knew what to spend money on and you also advised me when it probably wasn’t worth it. And then explained why! Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge. You were always so prompt in responding to emails and phone calls. You are so passionate about what you do and it makes it a pleasure to work with you.

When we first met, it was your freshness and enthusiasm that made me want to work with you and it’s a testimony to how positive a person you are that after a year and a half of working together your can-do attitude never waned. You were always a ray of sunshine, always upbeat, positive and professional.

So many people commented on how relaxed and how much fun the bride was having and that was due largely to you. I felt that we had anticipated everything we could have and if anything came up I trusted you completely and knew things would be fine in your very capable hands.

We would not have enjoyed our wedding as much without your being there to oversee everything and it wouldn’t have been the gorgeous and magical day that it was without your advice and experience to guide us through the decisions. You became my friend and a confidant and I want to thank you for your advice as it came from a place of concern and consideration and I will always be very grateful to you for that. My wedding day could have been very different had you not been so honest with me. I am going to miss you, but wish you good health, much happiness and success!

With Love,
Shauna (Mrs. Zingg)
