Need Decorations? Think Stacy Fisher of Shindigs by Stacy Referral from Jens List member kathypomerantz@pacbell.net “She did an AMAZING job! The theme was airplanes & she made adorable centerpieces with a plane flying above a runway(complete with blinking lights)as well as a huge glittered sign featuring the bar mitzvah boy’s pretend airline logo that was hung above the DJ. So many people commented on how amazing the decorations were. Stacy is a joy to work with & she was so accommodating considering that I contacted her only two weeks before the event! She was organized, had great ideas, worked quickly and turned out a fantastic product. She was also more than happy to work within our budget.
