I just wanted to let you know, once again, how impressed we were with your services. There is no way that we could have had the event that we had (and had as much fun) without you, Kellie, and Joanne (sorry if I butchered their names). You did an outstanding job for a very reasonable price. Anyone that asks how the wedding went, I always mention your name. There are a lot of our friends that have children in their twenties (with a lot of weddings coming up) and you can rest assured, I will give them your name as a referral. - Kathy
The Wedding Planner, no not the movie but the real one, THE Wedding Planner. I simply had no idea the vast array of service - and I mean real service - that someone like Anthony provided. He totally won me over the day that I got in trouble. Shock, I was being too noisy. Anthony stood up and took it for me. I would like an Anthony all the time : ) Anyway, big big shout out to Anthony Marinaro who not only took care of the wedding but me too! I love the picture where you can see him clapping. He is working at weddings every weekend but look at him caring like a guest too! Whoop whoop! -Amy
What you and your team accomplished that day was unbelievable! We all want to thank you, Anthony, for all you did. Words cannot describe how grateful we are to you and your crew. Your ears must be burning, because we haven't stopped talking about how well organized the wedding was. You have proved yourself beyond a doubt. - Mark and Sue
Anthony you were marvelous- my mom and I truly appreciated you work ethic- so quick with replies and so thorough with information and incredibly helpful. Thank you! - Emilea
I do want to let you know that you were wonderful and everyone loved the venue (Sticks) so thank you for your consistent communication and help.
- Jennifer
Thanks for such a beautiful wedding. I couldn't have imagined it would be so beautiful! Everything from the food to the flowers were perfection!!
- Steph
Anthony, WOW! Thank you so much for helping me put together my dream wedding! I truly appreciate all of the help you provided me through the last three chaotic months of wedding planning!
- Jennifer M
Thanks again for creating an amazing wedding! It was perfect.
- Paula
We are still tingling from head to toe in sheer wedding bliss! It was truly an amazing night that we will treasure forever!! We can thank you enough for your part in that...
-Christina
Your advise and suggestions on flower design, food, catering, and photography were 'spot on'.
-Deb
Anthony Marinaro of Out of Box Event Productions was absolutely fantastic! I don’t think things would have ran as smoothly without his professionalism and calm demeanor. He had a way of making everyone around him feel special and I know my husband and family loved working with him. He was very organized, yet knew when to let his guard down so everyone could enjoy the experience. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a planner; he’s top notch!
-Jessica & Mark
Thank you so much for everything you have done! The Reception was absolutely perfect! Cody and I had so much fun with our family and friends and had so many compliments on the decor, so thank you for being creative!!!!
-Amber
I couldn't have better things to say about Anthony and his team. Throughout the planning process, Anthony was attentive, organized and resourceful. He provided many helpful tips and did a great job coordinating a timeline with the photographer, DJ, etc. I am grateful, he made our wedding day much less stressful. With a later wedding time, couldn't set up the venue myself. Place looked wonderful and received numerous compliments. I would recommend him to anyone.
-Jenae
Anthony- Thank you for all of your help in planning and coordinating the details of our big day. Everything went beautifully and your help was instrumental in making that happen! It was great working with you!
- Erin and Jeremy
We used Out of Box Weddings as a "day of" organizer for our wedding, but they did so much more. We were unsure whether or not we needed a planner at all, but I can tell you that after the fact we couldn't have imagined our wedding day without them. Overall they make everything go smoothly and allow you to not worry about a thing. From dealing with the vendors, caterers, church staff, transportation, etc. they have relationships with most people in town and are able to hold them accountable and ensure everything works as it should. We didn't not worry about a thing all day, and everywhere we looked the Out of Box staff was greasing the wheels. Not only were they helpful the day of, but we had several hours of meetings in the months beforehand, and hundreds of emails to answer questions on what is "standard" and how we should handle things....Way more service than we expected. Anthony and his team are very straightforward...but that comes with years of experience and trust us that you are best served to follow his advice. We found our experience so valuable that a few months before the wedding we hired Out of Box to plan our 80+ people rehearsal event the Friday before at Sticks in Des Moines...and again, looking back, having them handle the whole weekend was key to its success. I could recommend them more highly!!!!
-Jay and Jill
Anthony helped us with our wedding preparation. Considering my husband and I were living in different location at the time, communication with Anthony was super easy .. he made sure that everything was taken care of.. and he did that and beyond... Worth every penny. See him (and his results) on the TV show "I Do...Lets Eat"!!!
- Jason and Natalia
Anthony- We really appreciate all of your amazing help in making everything run smoothly. It definitely wouldn't have been the same without you. We had such a fabulous day and were so thrilled at how the event turned out.
- A & R
Anthony- I can not begin to thank you for everything you have done to help make our day perfect! Wedding planning was certainly stressful at times, but knowing you were there to help and guide us made it bearable! Thank s for alway being on our side and putting Ryan an amy wishes first!! Thanks again,
- Cassondra & Ryan
