    Ms Gayla and her team were amazing. They handled the setup, timeline and cleanup at our venue. I did not have to do nothing at all. I really felt like a guest at my own wedding. I would highly recommend Ms Gayla for all your wedding plans. 10 across the board. Thank you again!"

    EWEP did a phenomenal job for me and exceeded my expectations. They are reasonably priced which helped me stay within my budget. I will be working with them again in the future.
