My husband and I chose Heaven on Earth as our wedding venue because of the all inclusive package deal and most importantly the feel and ambiance of this beautiful property. Through the whole process Tamara provided the best experience and informative information and expertise to ensure our vision was brought to life in the most elegant way. I went in not knowing what to expect and had not clue were to start but Tamara to my bits and pieces of a cloudy vision and exceeded all expectations. I was disappointed that Tamara was not present for my rehearsal dinner or the day of our ceremony but she did leave us in the great hands of Jeanie and Marissa who took care of every need we encountered and even added addition touches that enhanced the entire experience. Because Tamara was not there, the day of the ceremony, there were a few minor details that are missed such as the jumping of the broom. I regret not having that opportunity but it did not take away from me marrying my best friend. Out of the all vendors included in the package we used Cakes by Gina for our wedding cake (a bit pricey for the decorations we added to the cake but it was better than our vision), Jeanette Whitehouse for our invitations (very professional and created my vision for the invitations in a timely and professional manner), Siliva Goana with Sylmar Creations for flower decor (very knowledgeable about her craft, a bit pricey when it comes to products not already included with the package but her work is worth it), and Cedric Maddox for photography. I was least pleased with Cedric. Not because of the quality of the final product but we feel he missed out on photo opportunities that should have been keen to a “wedding photographer.” As a newly married couple we only receive 1 pose and 1 background. I do take responsibility for not meeting with Cedric and going over expeditions prior to the wedding ceremony but I was advised that he was a true professional and knows what photos to capture during these moments. Overall, Heaven on Earth and the entire staff are worth every penny spent for an all inclusive venue. My only advice is to meet with each and every vendor before your ceremony. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone. Thanks again Tamara...
Read moreThis will be a long one, so just sit tight. I booked this venue I'm guessing 2016 or early 2017. Let's just say a long time ago. For my wedding to take place on March 18, 2018. But unfortunately, Hurricane Harvey. I recieved the the call from Tamara that I kept anticipating after Harvey. And then Tamara and I met in her office to speak about what would happen, yes I was devastated I mean come on who would like to loose a retainer? Not us, we weren't necessarily in a good position to loose a retainer with the wedding only 9 months out from her phone call. Well after I took some time to think about alternatives, I met with Tamara again. I really feel like she is Heaven sent, I've never met someone with such a big heart. We agreed that I relocate my wedding location, but she would still honor my package. Which was basically everything without photo and video. I really appreciate everything Tamara has done for us. Everything was an emotional rollercoaster after Harvey, but Tamara kept my feet planted and helped me through it all. Fast forward months later, I booked a venue in Montgomery, Texas for December 8, 2018. Some may be upset that their wedding was pushed back so far, but we didn't mind as long as Tamara would be there for us. I've grown to be close with Tamara, I wouldn't change anything about my wedding day. Everything was so smooth and the gorgeous setup Tamara and staff did was beyond me. If you're looking for someone to coordinate your wedding with their heart, call Heaven on Earth. And speak to Tamara she is very welcoming in every way. Even after all this Harvey tragedy she still allowed me to go into her venue after it was completed to take my bridal photos, I at least could have some photos in her...
Read moreHeaven on Earth is a really beautiful place to celebrate all sort of events. I had my surprised engagement party here. Unfortunately everything about this day was absolutely perfect expect for the extremely rude service of one of their employees named Shannon. She was extremely rude to us at the end of the night, while I admit that we stayed over time for was in the agreement, she was rude to our guests. We had balloons on the walls and we were instructed to not pop the balloon (with confetti inside) on the floor rather only in a trash bag. However, since it was taped, it naturally popped while we were taking it off. Then as we were being careful about popping the balloons in the trash bag, one of the clean up crews came up and started popping the balloons for us when we explicitly told him "Hey, don't do that. Shannon told us not." Shannon, who at the time was not in the same room as us came in and snatched the broom off of the clean up guy and disrespectfully and ungraciously handed/almost threw the broom at us and said, "CLEAN THIS UP RIGHT NOW." This felt like she was belittling us or even being discriminative to us since she was white and we were people of color. She did not stop to ask, "Who did this" or give us a chance to explain, "hey your employee did this." Nor did she apologize to us for her behavior. None of this was our fault but her employee. So maybe next time, she can try to be nicer to her customers. We are people after all. Apart from Shannon's disrespectful behavior, we had a great experience at the venue. But I cannot give this place more 1 star because of this as it has tainted...
