Timing, planning, contract negotiation, creative input, and her communication skills are some of her strong points. She is developing a strong, well respected and fine reputation. She is constantly expanding her client base, thereby aligning her company for strong future growth. I work with several business people under 40 years old everyday. Rarely do I see someone as well rounded who contributes to her industry, as Samara does. Samara is very dedicated to her industry and is well respected by her peers in her industry. All seem to respect and admire her for her hard work, tenaciousness and high integrity.
Samara is an amazing event organizer. In addition to helping us with our company Christmas party, the very first wedding she ever did was my wedding and she did our daughter’s high school graduation party. With no prior wedding experience, she pulled off an 8 hour perfect event for over 250 people that our friends still talk about as the best wedding they have ever attended. Samara’s excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, understanding of the entire event industry, and her personal interaction skills with customers prove that she has every necessary characteristic of someone that has been and will continue to be successful for many years. She possesses an excellent business sense, great negotiating skills, and great personal contacts that keep her and Celebrations By Samara in touch with the needs of every client and event style. Celebrations By Samara will be THE event planner in Houston to go to.
Magician…Miracle Worker…Dream Maker…All of these descriptors sum up the geniuses of Samara! The vision for my husband’s birthday celebration came to life fully. ALL of his friends (and mine too) are calling it the party of the year thanks to Samara! Samara is an awesome partner and visionary of events. I was sad to see the party end, because the energy transpired was only that of what you see in the movies! To have an event without Samara, is like baking a cake with no oven – not ideal! Simply put, she’s the BEST!!!
Samara and her team were an incredible help to me while I was planning my daughter’s wedding. She knew the questions to ask and the vendors I would need. By having her contract with the vendors, I received quality products without the headache of trying to coordinate everything and everyone myself. Most important, though, were Samara’s efficient and professional demeanor with the vendors and her warm, cheerful, and loving direction for me and my family. If I am ever crazy enough to undertake another large celebration, my first call will be to Samara!
Thank you so much for everything you did to help make our son’s Bar Mitzvah one of the most memorable events in our life. From the moment we met, I loved your enthusiasm, creativity, and passion. You put all of that into our event and it was everything we hoped for and more! Working with you was truly a pleasure. It is not often you meet people who are willing to think outside the box to fit a client’s needs and wants but you did it with no problem. I should not have spent even a second worrying about anything. You handled everything perfectly and we could not have asked for a more perfect or beautiful weekend. The best part is we were able to fully enjoy ourselves and spend time with friends and family while you took care of every last detail. I will miss speaking with you daily but know we will stay in touch since I will be recommending you to anyone and everyone who is looking to have an event of a lifetime!
Samara is a creative genius, full of pep and energy. She organized two very diverse parties for me on the same weekend while 6 months pregnant. One was a 60th birthday surprise party and the other was princess and pirate party for a 4-year old. She was professional and very thorough. The parties happened to fall on the weekend of “the great snow storm of 2009.” That did not hold her back. Samara and her staff managed every aspect of the parties. All I had to do was sit back and enjoy the festivities and good company. Both parties were more than I expected. She not only is fun and creative, but detail oriented. The parties were a huge success!
