To start this off, I am a cake nut and for me the wedding cake was as important as my wedding dress. Steward at Rania's in Mt. Lebanon made our beautiful five tier wedding cake my dream come true! It was filled with fresh strawberry and pastry cream. It was truly the best tasting cake I sampled by a mile ( my husband ate the rest of the cake sample in the car with his fingers after we left Rania's!) It was moist and the absolutely delicious! The frosting was creamy and not overly sweet like most. I was set on having a five tier cake with three layers each tier (even though we only had 120 guests.) I also wanted big pieces of cake for our guests rather than those tiny slivers which are typical at weddings. Steward's price was hundreds less than any other cake shop we sampled (about five others!), guests got generous pieces of cake, and we still had tons left over - all for the price of 120 guests! Steward was wonderful to work with, and made our cake tasting and planning such fun and positive experiences.
This band made our reception. First of all, the band is 13 piece band with four lead singers and a brass section that can be compared to that of Earth, Wind, and Fire (they also have an 8 piece band available.) Really they are that good. They get the crowd dancing and keep them dancing all night long. They were classy and have a huge repertoire. Our first dance was "At Last" by Etta James, and we practiced our dance at the pace of a recording we heard on YouTube. We sent the band the link and they played the song exactly like the recording, so that the dance routine we learned worked out perfectly during the reception. Kim acts as an event manager during the wedding to make sure that everything goes smoothly. My husband and I didn't have to worry about one thing all night, nor did any guests. Kim took care of everything including announcing the events of the evening such as the toasts and the cake cutting. This band will make your recetpion run like a professionally run event and keep your guests dancing all through the night. This is the second time our family has used studioeentertainment for weddings, and we would recommend them in a heartbeat.
