Wedding Favors

Thank you so much for doing such an amazing job on the cake and cupcakes for my sister's bridal shower! The macarons where also amazing! Not only did the cake look beautiful it tasted just as good as it looked. Thank you Trina for making it a great experience and to the team at the bakery.

We were very pleased with our chai flavoured wedding cake from Pretty Sweet Bakeshop! The cake was absolutely delicious, and every bite was full of incredible flavour. We went with a simple design, but the presentation was still stunning, and it fit our wedding perfectly. The customer service was top-notch as well, and Vicki was so great to work with, taking the time to ensure everything was exactly what we wanted. They truly went above and beyond to make sure our cake was not only beautiful but also a hit with all our guests. If you’re looking for a wedding cake that’s both gorgeous and flavourful, I highly recommend Pretty Sweet Bakeshop! Plus their cake tasting to-go options serve as a wonderful date night!

Vicki Manness and her team did a phenomenal job on our wedding cake. She was super helpful and even let us do different flavored tiers. The cake turned out identical to our inspiration photo. No issues at all with the cake delivery to the reception venue either. Thank you for making our wedding cake so beautiful and our wedding day so seamless.

Ok, so I work at a restaurant in the NW and tonight I had the extreme pleasure of one of my tables graciously giving me one of these cupcakes, and….WOW!!

First impressions:
When I was loading them onto a nice tray, me and another manger noted that these were some of the moistest looking cupcakes we had ever seen (and we see a lot of cake and cupcakes that guests bring in).
Also the buttercream looked Sooooo silky smooth, which as a passionate home baker I appreciate because I know it takes extra attention to detail to get all those air bubbles out.

After dropping them off at the table I had to ask where they were from because we had many servers stop us to ask where they were from because the looked so delicious, and the lovely table let us in on the little secret, that is you guys!

Later when I brought the few remaining cupcakes back (like I said originally) they gave me one, and after a long day this cupcake did not disappoint!

It was the most moist, not to sweet and perfectly balanced , silky smooth cupcake I have EVER had!

Next time I am in the south I will definitely be coming to check you out ❤️

Ps. It was a chocolate cupcake with vanilla buttercream 🧁

My husband and I live in Edmonton, and chose pretty sweet bake shop Calgary for our wedding cake SOLELY off reviews and photos. Let me tell you, they did not disappoint. I had the pleasure of dealing with Vicki Manness who made the entire process from start to finish seamless and easy. The cake was gorgeous, VERY tasty (the entire table was making sounds lol) and packaged well. We took our cake to Canmore for our ceremony the next day and it stood through travel and bags of ice. The flowers were fresh and designed so well.
Thank you very very much for an incredible cake and experience. I can’t wait to use you guys for our one year anniversary and get cupcakes to match, so we can relive the experience lol. 10/10

I had such a wonderful experience with Revelle Bridal Boutique—it’s clear from the moment you walk in that this is a family-owned business where they genuinely care about their brides. The team is kind, welcoming, and incredibly supportive, and they made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process.

I ordered one of my dresses from Revelle and it was absolutely perfect—it fit me like a glove right off the rack with no alterations needed, which felt like a dream. The selection is stunning, and while the dresses are definitely an investment, the quality speaks for itself. These are beautiful, thoughtfully made pieces that you won’t find just anywhere.

My only small piece of feedback is that I would have appreciated more proactive communication about the status of my dress. As a bride eagerly waiting, I found myself reaching out a few times for updates, and it would’ve been nice to get a quick check-in email without having to ask.

That said, it doesn’t take away from the fact that my experience here was truly 5 stars. I felt taken care of from start to finish, and I’m so grateful I found my dress at Revelle. Highly recommend!

Revelle is the most incredible bridal shop in Ottawa! The stylists made me feel so beautiful and special. They made every dress I tried on feel like it fit and looked good. I found the perfect dress there! Special shout outs to Marisa & Earleen who helped me and were so kind and caring. I will continue to recommend Revelle to any bride I meet! 🤍✨

Revelle Bridal was absolutely stunning, and the entire experience felt so elevated. My bridesmaids and I booked the luxe appt so we got to sip champagne & it felt like a celebration throughout the appointment! Although I didn’t end up purchasing my dress here, the stylist, atmosphere, and attention to detail in what I was looking for were exceptional. Highly recommend!

Absolutely Outstanding Bridal Experience! Expertise with heart!

I cannot recommend this bridal shop highly enough! From the moment I walked in, the team went above and beyond in every possible way. Earleen (the owner) and Elle (the wonderful assistant) were incredibly kind, understanding, and truly professional. They understand how emotional and important this process is, and they turn it into a beautiful, memorable moment.

Unlike other stores I visited, this experience completely reconciled me with the idea of wedding dress shopping. They offered a turnkey, solution-oriented service wrapped in warmth, empathy, and genuine care. It's everything a bride-to-be could wish for during such a special time. They did a miracle for me.

Thanks to them, I feel calm, confident, and excited for the rest of my wedding journey. If you're looking for a place that combines expertise with heart—this is the bridal shop to visit! Thank you so much.

Team Revelle has been a 10 star experience! My daughter said “yes to the dress” today without any pressure and full guidance from the mom and daughter team.

A truly happy (joyous!) experience at a truly happy (joyous!) time. In our lives. The dress is special and we felt like their only customer - and we certainly are far from that.

Kudos to this team, we strongly recommend a visit.

Excellent service — welcoming and knowledgeable florists with a “can do” attitude. Less than a week before my daughter’s wedding, we had to scramble to find a florist to help with a large arrangement and a six foot garland. Scrims was more than willing to help. The arrangements were stunning. A week later, many of the flowers were still beautiful.

I stopped by today to pick out a couple of plants for my office space. I have a North-facing window, so the lovely sales associate (whose name I *should* have requested but forgot to) helped me with some lower light options. I am thrilled with the beautiful pothos she helped me pick out, as well as the hardy little snake plant. On top of the incredible quality of their product, they offer fair prices. Thank you for a great experience!

The BEST place to purchases plants from locally! I walk by Scrim’s everyday and the plants in their window are always so full and beautiful. I decided to take the plunge and purchase 3 new plants and two pots for my jungle. The plants were so FULL and even had a bunch of new baby leaves getting ready. I was very surprised for the price of the plants how full they were. I will definitely be back soon to purchase more plants!!

My favourite florist in the city! I've gotten lots of my amazing plants from them and I love how they are always super helpful with questions and if you need any help with your plant care after your purchase they are always there for you. Amazing selection and great quality.

Great selection of plants and pots. Occasionally has some very unique plants that are difficult to find in Ottawa. Also has some unique planters. I find the prices slightly high for plants/pots, but given it is spacious and in the core, I totally understand.

THE place to get your invitations for any occasion. We received fantastic service and beautiful invitations.

I ordered my wedding invitations from Stephita, they sent me lots of samples and I ended up making a custom invitation with them. They were amazing to work with and my invitations turned out amazing, I got many comments from guests on how they were the most beautiful invitations they had ever seen! Best if all the price was so reasonable compared to some others I had looked at, not only were the others more expensive they also didn’t have the selection and customization that I was looking for. Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend them!

Tyson helped me finalize and had my invitations shipped literally within 48 hours of my initial inquiry because I needed to make a rush order. They were in my hands a few days later, and looked beautiful. Highly recommend!

Beautiful stunning invitations for our wedding! Well made, materials were good quality and the service was quick! I would highly recommend this business for anyone needing amazing cards.

Our invitations were absolutely gorgeous and a great price for what we got! Picking out/designing our invitations was really easy and they came out perfect. We got so many compliments on them. Would definitely recommend them to everyone!

The store is very cute (1 star) and the quality of the products is obviously great (2 stars)

As for my shopping experience, that was quite underwhelming. The two workers at the counter were just chatting and did not ask me once how I was doing- which is not that unusual, so I just continued my search for swimsuits on my own.
A small number of swimsuits was hung on display, then there were two bins on the ground with different sizes and colors, so it was really hard to get a sense of what the offering was. Plus I had to squat and go through the stuff in the bin, which sort of clashes with the polished vibe of the store.

I asked a question regarding one of the swimsuits but they didn’t have what I was looking for. Now, according to customer service 101 the next logical questions could be “were you looking for anything else/ can I help you find any other model?” and so on.
None of that happened so I just walked out. I Too bad, because I drove to this place specifically to make a sale! I would expect this at Zara but not here.

This store is such a vibe! The staff is always extremely helpful and their designs are gorgeous. I highly recommend stopping in when you’re in the Glebe!

VAM is the best!! Gorgeous clothing, friendly service and always an amazing experience!!!

I love Viens avec moi! Always the cutest selection of clothing, accessories, shoes and beauty products. Just picked up 2 pairs of sweatpants and jeans on sale. Amazing service and a beautiful shop!

This boutique is absolutely amazing. Between customer service and quality of clothing, I was blown away. I live in south Florida and have never set foot inside. I blind purchased the everyday mini top, shorts, and boyfriend top and couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Shipping was fast as well!! Thank you for everything, Renée!

A wonderful store! So many gift options and everything you buy supports fair wages and safe working environments for worldwide artisans. They sell so many unique pieces! I love their clothing and home décor items. My friends love their greeting cards too.

What a great fair trade store! Friendly and kind staff. Lots of great stuff and art pieces as well as local food items. Awesome ideas for gifts. I will be back for sure.

Just stumbled upon this gem of a store with my husband during our last few days in Calgary. We popped in on a whim after a long day outdoors, not even knowing what to expect. The lady at the front was so friendly and knew all about the stuff they had. It’s the perfect place to find a unique gift, a special rug, or a cool kitchen item. And I love that it’s non-profit and run by volunteers – such a great vibe!

I buy all my coffee here.
Also a great place for Christmas, birthday, wedding gifts, etc since the items are unique and from around the world. Best of all, they are Fair Trade! The Peace by Chocolate bars from the Maritimes have very appropriate sayings - LOVE, Happy Birthday, Congratulations, etc and one of the latest, Elbows Up!
The staff are always friendly and welcoming.
Really, I can't say enough good things about this store!

My fiancé bought dresses for me from this store and they are so beautiful and unique. Plus I am in my third trimester of pregnancy and they fit all types of bodies perfectly- especially the wrap dresses.

I use to live near this shop around a decade ago that’s how I first stumbled upon it, but I still always come to this flower shop when I want that wow factor.

Personally I just let the owner know some colours I’m thinking and my budget and she works her magic! She is beyond knowledgeable with her craft, and has an incredible eye for creating the most beautiful arrangements, clearly! as pictured in the bouquet I had the pleasure of gifting my mom for her birthday today which she absolutely adored :)

Always a great experience every time I visit Bel Fiore! Thank you!!

My boyfriend bought me flowers from this amazing shop last weekend… The most beautiful bouquet I’ve ever received!

Thank you so much to the owner, she was so kind when arranging the bouquet for my boyfriend.

Below are pictures from 1 week ago and today, you can’t even tell the difference!

Bel Fiore does it again! Spectacular Mother’s Day arrangement. So wonderful to have a local flower shop the delivers every single time. My mother loved the flowers - including the fact that they included some local Ontario roses.
Thank you

The service is excellent and there was a beautiful choice of flowers. I also appreciate the limited use of wrapping materials; perhaps no plastic or foam could be considered for the future?

I recently purchased two bouquets for my wife’s convocation ceremony, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! The owner worked within my budget and took the time to consider our preferences for flowers. She created two stunning bouquets with beautiful autumn colors that were unique from each other, showcasing her incredible skill and attention to detail. Will definitely come back!

Our league needed trophies last minute. Heather was an amazing help! She had them ordered and put together in a very short time. All the staff were very friendly, but especially Heather. Our trophies turned out amazing, all thanks to her hard work and dedication. Thank you so much! I will definitely be back.

I had no idea what I wanted for a special occasion balloon display but after a brief consultation they nailed it. The balloons were ready on time and on budget. They helped me load them into my vehicle and I am one happy customer.

Ordered 16 Baloons and all floats the whole night to next day.
Decided to keep 4 Baloons for fun and it lasted for 1 week.

Staff are awesome too and accomodating!
Will buy again good quality baloons here.

Doug is fantastic! Very friendly. I am definitely going back. Great selection of Darts and pretty much anything else you need. On the outside appears to be a small shop. Go inside and it's over 1600 Sq ft of everything you can think of

THIS business is Exceptional. Went to get Engraving Done on a Amulet n the Work is Simply beautiful.
The Staff are Very Professional and got work Done as PROMISED. Now the PRICE is Soo Reasonable...I Encourage you Calgary to use THIS Business yall Won't Regret.
Canuck Amusement sure HOPE this boost Business for You because You are a Friendly HONESTY company.
Thank you VERY much 😊

Extremely Disappointed – Would Not Recommend

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel compelled to share my experience so that other brides don't go through the same stress before their wedding.

I brought my wedding dress to Ele Bridal over a month ago for alterations and left with a dress that is still unfinished, too small, and completely unwearable — just days before my wedding.

The experience was filled with poor communication, multiple rescheduled and disorganised appointments, and work that was either rushed or not done at all. I had five fittings, and at each one, I was promised the dress would be nearly finished — but key alterations like the hem, bustle and sleeves were repeatedly ignored or done poorly.

At the final fitting, I waited over 2.5 hours in a hallway while the seamstress frantically rushed to finish last-minute work. In the end, the dress was still not done, and I had no choice but to take it home unfinished. As my unfinished dress was carried out the door, the seamstress suggested that my friend who makes costumes could finish the dress... A second professional seamstress has since confirmed the poor quality of the alterations, and I'm now faced with having to find a new dress days before my wedding.

This was an incredibly emotional and disappointing experience. I trusted this business with one of the most important elements of my wedding and was let down at every step.

I have asked for a refund and waiting to hear back. I will update accordingly.

I do not recommend Ele Bridal to any bride or client seeking reliable, professional, or timely service.

I had the absolute best experience from beginning to end with my dressmaker, Charifa. From our very first consultation, she truly listened to my vision and made me feel completely at ease. She brought every detail to life with such care, talent, and professionalism.

Her attention to detail and precision were incredible—every stitch and adjustment was done with the highest quality. The final result was beyond what I had imagined. My dress fit like a dream and felt so uniquely me, all thanks to Charifa’s skill and dedication.

If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about your vision and will deliver perfection with love and craftsmanship, I can’t recommend Charifa and Ele Bridal Alterations enough. They made the entire process such a joyful and stress-free experience!

My wedding dress was just perfect! Big thank you to Charifa my amazing seamstress for understanding and brainstorming with me during consultations ❤️ My dress was made from scratch and it turned out better than I thought. It was truly my dream classy & timeless dress 🥰 I’m highly recommending Ele Bridal for future brides!

I had such an amazing experience with Ele Bridal and Charifa! I went to the Gatineau location where Charifa was absolutely nothing but warm and welcoming. She made sure all my needs were met along the way, ensuring my vision became a reality with my dress. Communication was crystal clear, and Charifa was even so kind to drop my dress off to me after my last fitting. 10-10 experience!!

Writing on behalf of my Fiancee: If you are assigned to Charifa at the Gatineau location as your seamstress; RUN.

She has on 3 separate occasions told my Fiancee that her alterations were done only for my Fiancee to drive across the city from the west end and then show up to witness that ZERO alteration work has been done between appointments. From my understanding she has butchered one type of alteration, cancelled multiple appointments with little to no notice, and has rescheduled said appointments for various reasons while assuring that the alterations were already done; lying to my Fiancee's face directly. We are exactly a week away from when we have to travel for our wedding and the Dress is still incomplete and my Fiancee is currently scrambling to find someone to do the work last minute as a rush job.

Having worked in the Male side of the wedding industry I understand how important it is to stick to timelines and I also understand that under no normal circumstances (bar decision changes) should alteration appointments ever number even close to 6. I know dresses are different than suits in their requirements and I also know certain alterations may need to be completed before other alterations occur; but the timeline I described above is absolutely inexcusable. This goes double for not even being done on the 6th appointment.

I've currently sent an email to the business to sort things out and I will update my review accordingly. I expect a full refund for this series of blunders.

My Fiancee came home today after her final appointment (where she practically had to beg Charifa to let her take the dress home, despite it being in an unfinished state) and told me to my face that she now sees the dress differently and it no longer brings her joy. This deeply saddens me given that when she originally found the dress she told me that she had a "moment" and knew it was the one for her.

This business needs to reconsider Charifa, and develop a system to keep track of what their employees are doing. I genuinely believe this person wasn't doing any work at all between appointments. Initially we tried really hard to be empathetic to the situation but the lack of communication as well as the lack of actual work being completed has fractured our trust completely and we felt it best as a last ditch effort to try our hand somewhere else.

I recently purchased a heart-shaped jewelry box from Engraving Reimagined and I couldn’t be happier! The engraving was beautiful . It was gift for a birthday, and she absolutely loves it. The staff were friendly, helpful, and made the whole process easy. I will definitely be back!

We recently ordered an engraved item from Engraving Reimagined, and from start to finish, the experience was nothing short of fantastic. Their customer service was top-notch—friendly, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure our order was perfect. The pricing was very fair, especially considering the high level of craftsmanship. And the finished product? Absolutely beautiful—elegant, precise, and clearly made with care. It exceeded our expectations in every way.

If you're looking for quality engraving, great service, and a smooth process from beginning to end, look no further than Engraving Reimagined. We'll definitely be returning for future projects. Highly recommended!

Amazing service with this team! I got Owala waterbottles engraved for my bridesmaid proposals and they turned out stunning. Super communicative, fast but detailed work, and very personable to work with. I asked to have them engraved a couple weeks after dropping off the bottles and they even rushed my order to have them ready within 2 weeks! Will definitely be going back for any other engraving needs I have

Great service. In contact with Mona for over 2 weeks, always there to answer any questions. We had 2 10k gold signet rings engraved with our family crest and they turned out amazing.

I recently had a terrible customer service experience here, and I certainly won’t be using Engraving Reimagined again.

I had recently ordered an engraving to affix to a memorial for a recently deceased pet. Very simple, just his name engraved on a small brass plate. I used the online personalization tool on my phone, and everything seemed fine.

When I went to pick it up, the spacing between letters was off and the U misaligned. When this was brought up, I was put on the phone with the owner. They basically told me that it was my fault, that it was the computer’s fault, that it was anybody else’s fault but their poor quality control. They told me that it looked exactly like the online personalization preview, which it most certainly does not. Instead of just offering to redo the plate, they said I’d have to buy a new one and then they’d comp the engraving in a different font. So, you deliver a bad, unusable product and your solution is for me to pay more money for a product in a style I don’t want? For customer service sake, you could’ve just refunded the nineteen bucks and called it a wash. You could've offered to re-do it at your expense. Instead, you blamed me for your poor execution, left me frustrated and angry, and now I just have to throw away this garbage you delivered and take my business elsewhere.

I have attached a screenshot of what the plate looked like in the online personalization tool, and the final delivered product for reference, because the owner will likely respond to this review in order to deflect blame some more.

Edit for owner's response: As expected, more deflection of blame. And shame on YOU for your incompetence, as I didn't "upload a new one." Look at the screenshot - it lists "Roman" as the selected font. I suspect your system displays fonts incorrectly on mobile, or they are mislabeled, and that's on YOU for quality control, as I don't know what the font "should" look like when it displays something different on YOUR system. Be a professional.

I live in Sylvan Lake Alberta and my mom in Ottawa is 96 years old. I send flowers to my mom for every occasion. This time I sent mom flowers because today is my sister Cindy’s birthday. The first birthday without her because of her passing.
We miss Cindy so much. Hopefully your flowers will help mom on this difficult day. You have always exceeded your quality and service.
Thank you
Bernard York

The floral arrangement delivered for the funeral was nothing short of breathtaking. Each bloom was carefully selected and thoughtfully arranged, creating a serene and elegant tribute that truly honored the memory of our loved one. The flowers were fresh and vibrant, exuding a natural beauty that perfectly captured the essence of life and the love that surrounded the departed.

The website was easy to use for selecting the arrangement and making online payment. Updates were provided each step of the way from order to creation to delivery. Highly recommend. 10/10!

Flowers were nothing like the picture. Nothing. And I even ordered the priciest one and it still looked terrible. I’m so embarrassed to have this sent out under my name

My Go To shop for flowers. Jean and her team has been wonderful over the years. Thank you!
Update Feb 2024: Another win yet again! Superb flowers delivered kindly and professionally!

Friendly honest hard working staff. I can't go on enough about the professionalism of this place. If you're in need of flowers come here it is well worth the trip. The store also looks great by the way!

We just hosted a Family Reunion (85 family members attended).

Communication was excellent!
Pick-up & Drop-off was easy!
The chaufing trays kept our homemade Ukrainian food warm for the entire
weekend! 😀 & we enjoyed the food & fellowship on classic white plates - not paper plates.

Good Time Party Rentals was one of the reasons our Family Reunion was a huge success!!!

We had a great experience with this rental company for our wedding! Communication was clear and easy from the start, pricing was very reasonable, and the delivery/pick-up team was professional and efficient. Everything went smoothly, and we couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommend!

Good Time Party Rentals made our 50th business anniversary celebration a breeze! Their selection of rental items was fantastic, everything was clean, high-quality, and delivered right on time. The setup was smooth, the team was friendly and professional, and they went above and beyond to make sure we had exactly what we needed. Our event looked amazing thanks to their attention to detail. Highly recommend Good Time Party Rentals for any event in Calgary — they truly live up to their name!

Nancy made our wedding rentals easy and completely stress-free. She was kind, knowledgeable, and incredibly accommodating throughout the entire process. From start to finish, she made everything feel smooth and simple, which was such a gift during a busy time. We truly appreciated her attention to detail and warm, professional attitude. Highly recommend!

I've been renting here for both my businesses for close to 9 years. It's always good service and helpful on the phone. The last two orders things were missing, which caused a bit of chaos for me, but their on call person was able to get me the missing things i needed. Today, I called to chat about it, and the manager refunded the entire order. I certainly wasn't expecting the whole thing and thought maybe a discount on my next order or something like. So this review is just to say, wow, thank you for great customer service over the years.

Thank you to everyone at Importer’s who worked so hard to make my beautiful bridal shower bomboniere! We had an Italian inspired theme and they did a beautiful job to capture the vision!

Everyone is so kind and helpful and I couldn’t imagine going with anywhere else for my party favours!

Anthony and Christine are amazing at what they do! They are truly professional, courteous, and extremely efficient.
Beautiful work! Done quickly and Anthony was very fast responding to messages.
I was in a crunch for a personalized gift I needed the very next day. Anthony & Christine completed it in the quickest turnaround. Communication was clear and concise.
Anthony & Christine helped bring my idea to real life.
Importer's Gifts is very reasonably priced especially considering how high the quality is, it exceeded my expectations!
The gift was beautifully wrapped with ribbon!
I will definitely be a repeat customer!
Thank you Christine/Anthony!
Truly a 5 star!!

Importer’s Gifts has been my absolute go to place for gifts, any occasion of mine for about the past almost 30 years. In that time I have gotten to know the staff as very helpful, kind, and their gift wrapping is always beautiful. I went in the other day just before closing and they still went out of their way to wrap my gift. Much love for this place.

I had a fantastic experience with Importer’s Gifts. Anthony was incredibly helpful in customizing a charcuterie board for me. He really went above and beyond to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. The rest of the staff were just as great, helping me choose the perfect knife set to go with it and even wrapping everything beautifully. Top-notch service from start to finish!

Anthony and his entire team have always delivered exceptional customer service and amazing quality items. Importer's Gifts has a huge selection of gifts for all occasions/ events. I have ordered many engraved decanters for gifts and they are always a huge success.

Anthony and his team were so kind and patient when helping me select my wedding bombonieres. I was so beyond happy with the engraving for our 350 wedding bombonieres. Each was beautifully wrapped with ribbon, custom label and confetti. Thank you Anthony and team for always going above and beyond. Truly 5+ stars!

I have been purchasing cutting boards for a few years now and the quality of the product is unmatched! Magued and his wife are not only super helpful, friendly and knowledgeable, they put their full heart into the work they do! They are very hard working people and always want the best for their clients! They are the best in the business if you want a quality product and the best service! I recommend 110%!
Thank you both!!

I ordered a custom card holder from JM la bonne impression, and I had a fantastic experience. The customer service is spot on, and the attention to detail is superbe. They are such kind people, and I am so happy to have been able to support their business. Told my family about them as well, and they have already made an order. Thank you so much!

Excellent Service! Very efficient! It was my first time ordering customized products and I was impressed with the quality of the product and the service fast service that was provided . The staff was very kind, helpful and knowledgeable about the service they provide. Highly recommend! I will definitely be going back for more customizable products !

I ordered personalized napkin rings for my daughter’s wedding as « bonbonnières and place names in one » for each guest and they turned out beautifully! All our guests loved their personalized souvenirs. Dealing with Magued and Nada was such a great pleasure & their work speaks for itself!
Many lovely and unique gift ideas.
Highly recommend!

Great quality, amazing service! You wont be disappointed.
Ive been ordering from them for years and ive always had great communication, very fast deliveries and beautiful items :) highly recommend!

I want to extend a huge thank you to the amazing decorating team, for making my daughter’s first birthday party truly unforgettable! From start to finish, their professionalism and attention to detail were exceptional. The unique decorations they designed really brought my vision to life, and the quality of everything—from the vibrant colors to the custom touches—was absolutely beautiful. It was clear that they put a lot of care and creativity into their work, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to elevate their event with something special!

Partyworld did an amazing job decorating my space for my husband’s birthday recently. It was better than I hoped. I was asked what I wanted was given exactly that. Definitely going to recommend her to everyone.

Partyworld came through for us, the touch of decoration made change the aura of the party, I was not expecting the gorgeous decor made in my small apartment. We will do this with you again and again. Thank you so so much.

The BEST decoration company in Calgary! Best prices and amazing customer service. Highly recommend them!

If you want great birthday gifts for your spouse, family or friends, Balloons and Custom Gifts Calgary is the best. You will not be disappointed and the receiver will be extra happy and grateful to you. My wife has not recovered from the surprise birthday gifts items that were delivered to her by surprise. I give 10 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Print Calgary printed my wedding invitations and they turned out absolutely perfect. I have received so many compliments on the quality of the invite. They were also incredibly quick to print my order and I received them much sooner than I anticipated.

Best print shop in Calgary!
I had the pleasure of working here and can confidently say it’s the best print shop in the city. The team is incredibly skilled, professional, and dedicated to delivering top-quality work. Whether it’s for business, personal projects, or anything in between, they always go above and beyond. Highly recommended!

Print Calgary saved me when I needed to print handouts for a memorial service. I printed them through an online service and they arrived but weren’t up to par and there wouldn’t have been time to re order. Print Calgary was able to make the adjustments needed to the design and have them printed for me in the same week. Salman was the most excellent person to deal with. I have learned my lesson and will only ever be printing through here from now on.

I’ve used Print Calgary on multiple occasions for our non-profit - they do terrific work in such a timely manner. The quality of our magazines couldn’t be higher, thanks to their hard work. We tend to operate on quick turnarounds and Print Calgary continues to exceed our expectations! Cannot recommend this place enough!

So impressed with this print shop!

I had a last-minute idea to design stickers for an event—the day before the event—and Earl was incredibly helpful. He got my design processed and printed the same day, and they turned out great!

Super grateful for the quick turnaround and quality work - made my last minute sticker dreams a reality!

A Beautiful Venue with Exceptional Service!

We got married at Waterfront Park in Calgary on July 5th, and the entire experience was truly amazing. The venue itself is gorgeous — the peaceful views of the water added a special touch to our ceremony and photos, creating a perfect atmosphere for our big day.

What really stood out, though, was the incredible service and coordination. The staff was professional, organized, and genuinely caring. From the planning stages to the final moments of our wedding, they made everything feel effortless and stress-free, allowing us to just enjoy the day.

We would absolutely recommend Waterfront Park to other couples — not only for the stunning scenery, but especially for the top-notch service that made our wedding feel so seamless and special.

Thank you to the whole team at Waterfront Park for helping bring our dream day to life!

We had a wonderful experience working with Simply Elegant for a special family event. From start to finish, the communication was clear, prompt, and thoughtful—something we truly appreciated throughout the planning process. Even though our group was small, the team made everything feel incredibly meaningful and memorable.

Jenn was absolutely amazing to work with. She transformed our parents’ home into a warm, elegant space with simple yet beautiful touches that captured the spirit of the evening perfectly. The food was superb—thoughtfully prepared and absolutely delicious. The chef clearly put care into every dish.

A special thank you to Raymond, who went above and beyond. He was so attentive, taking time to connect with each of us and ensuring every detail was taken care of. His presence added a personal touch that meant so much to our family.

The evening flowed beautifully, and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. I highly recommend Simply Elegant for any event, big or small. I’ll definitely be reaching out to them again in the future!

We just had our wedding catered by Simply Elegant on August 16th. The company is amazing to work with. Right from the beginning, communication was quick and efficient. The chef was accommodating of our, slightly odd, request. We had a christmas themed wedding, and Simply Elegant recreated their Holiday menu for us for it! We did a tasting prior to signing, and it was as amazing as the food was on the day of the wedding! We had so many left overs too so the quantities were great! We had so many compliments from our friends and family about the food! Could not have asked for a better wedding day meal! Will highly recommend in the future!

We ordered catering from this company and everything was amazing! The food was fresh and very delicious, all our guests were satisfied. I would also like to highlight the delivery person, Danil – he was extremely polite and friendly. It’s a pleasure to deal with such great service. Highly recommend! 🌟

We use Simply Elegant catering for our breakfast board meetings and they never disappoint! The food is always tasty and they show up on time and come back to pick up the equipment afterwards. They are our GO TO catering company and we highly recommend them.

Excellent service. Very fast. Good products too. I ordered souvenirs for a first communion event. They were able to also provide recommendations. Definitely recommend and will go back as store as beautiful things too.

been a customer many years great ambiance keep buying

I was visiting Montreal for the first time and wanted to grabs some gifts for my family / friends . My finance and I were so happy with the customer service and the great prices ! We bought quite a few items and the gentleman at the cash wrapped them all - and the wrapping job was excellent !! I highly recommend visiting this gift shop for some awesome finds at great prices !

We had bonbonieres done there and they were absolutely stunning. Great variety of products, beautiful decor pieces. Excellent service. Highly recommend!

Great store with lots of choice. Great customer service and the gift wrapping is exquisite.

Steeling Home, in downtown Calgary, is such a charming store. They have a really fun selection of hats — like one that says “This actually is my first rodeo” and others with cute bears and quirky messages.

Beyond that, the shop is full of original items: kitchenware (aprons, spoons, plates, mugs), souvenirs, stickers, clothes, jewelry and accessories. Honestly, they have a little bit of everything.

It’s a chic boutique with lots of character and truly unique things you won’t find anywhere else. If you’re in Calgary, this store is an absolute must-visit — you’re guaranteed to find something that makes you smile.

One of the CUTEST gift shops of all time. I loved shopping in Steeling Home. I came because of the great google reviews and bought so much because of the adorable and funny selection of items. Steeling Home has their shit together, it is a MUST VISIT while in Calgary. The ladies working were so kind. The shop's selection of local designs is excellent.

Best place to get gifts and souvenirs...lots of unique and cool things to choose from. Super cute stationary and kitchen stuff, amazing greeting card collection, planters, puzzles, mugs, books, journals, candles, aesthetic decor, jewellery, stampede things, funny socks, carpets. I always find something which I didn't even know I'd like so much haha. Go to the store, website doesn't have all the items listed. Prices are on high end, but definitely worth it for a few things which you don't find anywhere else in the city.

What a fun little spot!

Was walking around the neighborhood with my partner after being at the nearby Lilac festival during the day.

She was after a gift for her nephew. Something called a JellyCat. I don’t know what the heck that is but they seem pretty popular and this place had a fair few of them.

While we were browsing, a lovely staff member approached us and asked if our dog would like a treat. We said yes and she came back a moment later with something for her. Thanks!

This ain’t a spot to go if you’re looking for a bargain I guess. The prices are that of a trendy gift shop like this. Nothing is cheap but it’s also not trying to be.

Cool store! I’m sure we will pop in time and again when we are in the hood.

Found it a bit on the pricey side—noticed a few items that are available for less elsewhere. That said, the staff was really sweet and the collection is lovely.

I live in BC. I needed to order flowers for my cousin. This process was simple and friendly. A local owned shop I would happily support again. They did up exactly as I asked! The price was great for what I ordered. The flowers were fresh and arranged beautiful. Thank you!! Highly recommend.

Have used Strathmore flowers for a few years now. They are always professional, and their bouquets are absolutely beautiful. They go out of their way to make everything right. I would highly recommend them.

There are not words to express our pleasure at the incredibly awesome flowers done by the ladies at Strathmore Florist . They fulfilled my granddaughter 's vision and then some. They absolutely made her wedding day. These are just two pictures of the bouquets I am trying to preserve for her. Please enlarge for your pleasure.

Very nice arrangements they have fresh flowers very good rate. I own a taxi company here and I deliver so many flowers for them. They are Every Time fresh and beautiful. The ladies work there they are awesome like flowers.

I could not have been more pleased with the arrangements that were put together for my Aunties Celebration of life. Highly recommend.
