"The Bat Mitzvah was amazing. The centerpieces and the sign in book were unbelievable. Adults and kids were raving about them all night. You hit the theme right on the nose. The set up was perfect! You made everything so easy. I think you should put the pictures of the centerpieces and the sign in book on your website as there are no good gymnastic centerpieces out there. You will receive a lot of hits from all over the country from people wanting gymnastic theme centerpieces. Thank you"
