Angry face....angry face...angry face....used this facility to renew my vows on January 12, 2019...the house itself if beautiful but the wedding official they use is a rip off...going by the name Taya Shepard Dianna on Facebook or Altered Vows...she charged 150.00 for the service and 75.00 for the pictures...we arrived at the house and lady kept telling us she would be there any minute when she did arrive she called my husband the wrong name not once but twice before and during our vows...we told her we had had a problem with a photographer and his pictures so we wanted them on a disc...she told us she was leaving to go on a 2 week vacation which in hindsight she should have never had the service knowing she was not going to do anything with the pictures during that time...she used her Samsung Notebook phone to take the pictures so she could have sent them to us automatically...thank goodness my girlfriend was there and was taking pictures also and had sent them all to us before we got back home to North Carolina....on January 26, 2019 I text her asking about the pics since I had had NO word from her...she sent them the next day but they were pixelated and we wanted them on a disc like we had discussed...she then asked for my address, which I gave her....February 4th, 2019 she text me saying she hasn't forgotten about me but she hasn't had time...getting ready to go on another vacation and she was hoping to look at them that week....February 8th, 2019 I text her saying that there was still no disc in the mailbox and she had no problem taking the CASH!!!!! Now she is telling me her dog knocked her laptop off the coffee table and she can't do anything at all....does she not remember carrying a bunch of bags around the mansion but only using her cellphone to take the pictures??? She also mentioned she did call my husband by several different names and that we all laughed...what did she think we were gonna do...complain and ruin it even more??? VERY VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!!! DO NOT USE HER...
