OMG is all I can say. Tina was an excellent wedding planner.
I hired her once I found out that the previous wedding planner was overcharging me for vendors. Tina took control, and helped
me plan the remainder of my wedding. She was very professional, well organized and there for me and my husband for anything
that we needed. I just want to share my testimony of how excellent Tina was as a wedding planner. I was in vegas on vaction,
I seen a flower arrangement that I thought would fit me and my husband wedding perfectly. I sent her a text message with the
picture of the flower. She told me that she could make it happen. SHE MADE IT HAPPEN. The decorations was the best. I had
so many compliments from family members and friends on how Tina was a prestigous wedding planner. I am going to recommend
her to everyone that is planning a wedding. GREAT JOB TINA. Sherri

Weddings by Tina and Tina Payne were amazing. She was my wedding

happen), but it was nothing short of a dream come true. From the bottom of my husband and my hearts... Many thanks to Tina! Rachel & RayWedding

Hi Tina,`I wanted to touch base with you. Life is back to normal now, no
more planning, it’s hard to believe. I really wanted to let you know how much I appreciated the incredible job
you did for us. Everything was exactly as I imagined and in some cases it was better. I will send you some of
the professional pictures of the bouquets and the cake so that you can put those in your album. If I know of anyone
in the future looking for services I will most definitely recommend you.` Jessica
& Daniel J.Wedding - August 2010The Garden Club
We hired Tina Payne to assist with the set-up and break-down of our ceremony decorations and the set-up of
our reception decorations. From the very first email, I knew we would be in good hands. She is a true pleasure to work with
and her extensive experience as a wedding coordinator made the planning process smooth and
easier to manage. She was diligent on her follow-up and quick to respond back to emails and/or voicemails. I knew I could
count on her no matter what. She is also a great listener and easy to work with. We appreciated her feedback and recommendations
and her willingness to customize her services to meet our needs. She worked closely with me to fully understand our needs
and was eager to meet with us to learn more about our decorations and overall event scheme and set-up. We had an early morning
wedding ceremony and she had no problem with being there at 6 AM for set-up and she was prompt
and right on time. She did an awesome job setting up our decorations exactly to our specifications and assembling the chair
covers & stand-alone backdrop/wall draping; and did so with professionalism, courtesy, and with ultimate care to detail.
She is passionate about her work; and you can see this through the connection she makes with her clients and the end result
of her work. We highly recommend Tina and her services and we wish her the very best today and always. - Angela & John H.Wedding - July 2010Ponte

YossiWedding - June 2010Hanna Park & Dolphin Plaza
Tina, We would like to thank you for the amazing
work you did to make our wedding so special. It was truly beautiful and everything we ever imagined it to be.
You were a constant source of support leading up to the wedding, and we were completely confident in you. Thanks
for stepping up and helping when there were a few "snags" (ie.missing bartender and corkscrew) We dont
know what we would have done without you! We will be reccomending your services to EVERYONE we know! DJ Jake was GREAT! He really understood what we were trying to accomplish by playing music for every age group. He
even got out there and danced!!! The music was a key component to the feel of our wedding, and it couldn't have
been better!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! Danielle and Michael T. Wedding Reception - May 2010 Italian
American Club
Tina was our wedding angel. She not only helped
us plan an extraordinary wedding reception, took the stress and weight off our shoulders during
the whole wedding process. The reception hall looked flawless, the food was delicious, and
decorations were amazing. There was a lot of thought and time put into our reception. Her staff did an excellent job to ensure
that everyone was having a good time. The DJ, Big Jake, was extremely awesome. He took the time to acquire our music requests
and match our wedding color. He also ensured everyone was having a great time. Tina also recommended the bartenders, Catered
Cocktails, who also went above and beyond our expectations. The wedding co-ordinater provided by the church, Rose, was equally
impressed with Tina’s services. We were more than pleased with all the services provided to us by Tina and her staff.
We definitely recommend Weddings by Tina for anyone getting married.Mike & Kati M. Wedding Reception – May 2010 Sacred Heart Catholic Church
Weddings by Tina made our wedding day an absolute fairytale. Everything I spoke to Tina about and what
I wanted everything to look like was exactly what it looked like. The decorations were amazing, Tina and her assistants
are great. Tina is a very caring person and I am happy to have been able to work with her. I highly recommend her. The
ladies in my family all want to have a beach wedding now…even the ones already married.

day!!! Jenny &

I was extremely pleased with my bouquet and bridemaid bouquets. The flowers were
fresh and more beautiful than I would have dreamed of...plus the price was more affordable than going to a florist. I 100%
recommend Tina's services. The Centerpieces were impressive. I did the ostrich feathers and my guests were so
stunned. Thanks Tina, for making my wedding dreams come true while helping me stick to my budget. My husband was thrilled
about that!` Madiyah M.Wedding - April 2010Oakleaf Plantation
Hi Tina,`Everything was perfect. DJ Jake was reliable, professional,
and very nice. I couldn't have pictured it to have went more smoothly. Thanks so much!! ` BriAnna M.Wedding Reception - April 2010Jacksonville Firefighters Hall
Tina, -I am writing to let you know that the services that you provided
us were OUTSTANDING! Your one stop shop made it very convenient during our hectic planning months. Your creativity and
flexibility helped to make our vision come alive-the flowers and decorations were absolutely wonderful. Our day
was magical! The vendors that we found through you (Brent and Annabelle) were also fantastic! Your professionalism is SECOND
TO NONE and we recommend you highly! -Brad & Bianca B.Wedding -
March 2010King & Prince Beach Resort
Tina,- Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special. You took my idea of combining Mardi Gras and New Years Eve and created a very festive but elegant affair. Everything we
asked for you made happen. The room was beautiful and the food was delicious. You certainly eliminated a lot of
the stress that goes along with a wedding, making the night very enjoyable. It was like having a friend that wouldn't
get upset when we made changes and you went along with our whims. Every guest said they had a wonderful
time and raved about the decorations and food. Once again thank you.
Hi Tina, ~
First of all, let me thank you for everything you did. I
loved the decorations of the tables, centerpieces, chairs etc. I also liked the cake decoration, bride/groom table decoration
etc. I was told that you did all the decoration on time so that's yet another thing to be thankful for........ I really
appreciate your hard work. I will be intouch with Annabelle. Just to let you know, she's very professional and a sweetheart!
Thanks again for all your hard work! ~
Meena Q. Wedding
Reception - January 2010 Marriott Hotel
Gratitudes in abundance My major saving grace in keeping things right was a Jacksonville businesswoman who is an ace multitasker. Our wedding planner/director Tina Payne handled much of the planning and all of the heavy lifting. She decorated the chapel
and the reception with a summer garden theme and lighted palms. She dressed out the reception room by draping the ceilings
in sheer fabric with tiny lights and roses and hibiscus on food and guest tables. She dealt with the caterer and the selections
were outstanding. Laura’s family who traveled from Puerto Rico made some native dishes as well—those were a major
hit.
Tina handled small details and big ones—from arranging for photography by Ginger Dupree to flowers
and favors for guests. She dealt with the caterer and did numerous other things. She always gave me a specific price for add-ons
and her paperwork was organized. She is an excellent communicator. When Jen’s sister takes the big step, I’ll
ask Tina to help me out again. If I sound effusive, it’s because Tina earned kudos. Kay D. Daughter's Wedding
- August 2009Riverside House
I would like to that Tina and her staff for making my special day
a very memorable one. Tina was able to work with our budget as well as be available whenever we had questions. Thank
you for going above and beyond the call of duty. I don't know what I would have done with out her. I would
love to thank the DJ for coming on short notice. He was well prepared despite everything that was going on. The
food and decorations received rave reviews from all our family and friends. The cake was the most delicious cake that most
of the guest went back for more. Friends are even wanting to know who made the cake. I would definitely recommend Tina and
her company to anyone who is getting married on a small budget but still wants to have a beautiful wedding.

Grage Cultural Center
I used Weddings by Tina for my July 4th wedding
in 2009. I decided to purchase the Gold Package for 14 hours of her time and she was nice enough to let me break up
those 14 hours how I needed them. I did a lot of the leg work myself for vendors (i.e. florist, cake, DJ, etc...), but
when it came time for the big show, Tina did not disappoint. She picked up where I left off and executed the day flawlessly.
Tina made it possible for me to have a stressfree wonderful wedding day and I cannot thank her enough for that. If you're
looking for a wedding coordinator, use Tina!!! She is great!

Tina,
You guys did an awesome job and the beach decorations were beautiful. I have been recommending

Hi Tina:
Our daughter's wedding and reception were absolutely
beautiful. Both flowed so smoothly and that was due to your meticulous attention to detail and obvious expertise
at what you do.
Your resourcefulness and accessibility to answer the endless questions I had in planning our daughter's
wedding, proved to be a life-saver.
The decorations were absolutely stunning and the flowers and bouquets
were gorgeous.
I would highly recommend your services to anyone I know that is going to plan a wedding.
Thank you so much for all that you did.
Debbie S. Daughter's wedding - March 2009 Mandarin Community Club
Hi Tina!
I think everything
went well. It was just the type of 'atmosphere' that we wanted. Small and romantic. You and your assistants were super responsive
whenever something needed to be done, and I didn't have to stress at all :)
I got a lot of positive feedback from
guests who loved the food. One said they had attended a foot ball player's wedding a couple of weeks prior, and their food
was nowhere near as good as this one! :)
I really love your floral arrangements as well. My bouquet was beautiful;
the colors and the feathers were perfect! Just how I wanted! And the centerpieces were one of a kind. I had no idea how
they would turn out, but they were just as beautiful.
All in all it was very pleasant. You have a real talent
:)
Thank you so much! Lisa S. Wedding - November 2008 Ribault Garden Club
Hi Tina, Everything was perfect. The officiant was great and DJ Jake was fantastic! Everyone had so much fun. I really
appreciate all the help. Thanks again, Diana R. Wedding - May 2009 Crowne Plaza Hotel
Tina,
Everything at the reception
was wonderful. You guys were great and it looked beautiful in there. The colors were perfect and i loved the centerpieces.
I will definitely recommend you if i have any friends or family with upcoming weddings. Thank you so much again.
