Paulette Stubbs- Book Launch "It Could Happen to You" Novemeber 2009
Review of my experience with SageEden: Save The Moment, Event Planning Services
I had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Sharell Ferguson at the Iron Network Inc. ‘Women! Power & Purpose' conference in October 2009, where both she & I were featured speakers. During her eloquent business presentation, I was pleased to learn that her company Sage Eden, specialized in event planning and had earned a reputation as professional event planners, which I gathered from her track record of success in the field. This intrigued me as I was planning the launch of my new book ‘It Could Happen To You' in November and was not making much progress on my own, to say the least. I realized then that our meeting was no accident and I immediately scheduled a consult with Sage Eden for my event.
Consultation
I was a bit anxious at first, but after hearing Ms Ferguson's recommendations which depicted her wealth of knowledge in the business, assured me that I was in good hands. She was very accommodating and even tailored an attractive package to suit my budget. She formalized a list of special guests which included The Honorable Loretta Butler Turner, Minister of State, Ministry of Labor &Social Development and Dr. Sandra Dean-Patterson, Director of The Bahamas Crisis Centre. She prepared a professional media release article for the local newspaper & television, created an educational power-point presentation that complemented my speech and provided frequent updates of the planning process.
The Event
The official book launch of ‘It Could Happen To You' was held on Sat. Nov 14, 2009 at Chapter One Bookstore, Oakes Field. I arrived to my event a few minutes late and was relieved to discover that Ms. Ferguson of Sage Eden, had already set-up the area, displayed my books/products and began seating guest as they arrived. Ms Ferguson even substituted as Master of Ceremony for the event when my scheduled M.C sent regrets at the last minute. Sage Eden made my book launch a memorable success. I highly recommend the company !

Feleicia and Wellington Saunders Wedding Shower & Day July, 2004
"The coordination was superb! I tried to pretend that I was fully surprised, but I really wasn't. This was a good thing though, because I was feeling a bit anxious about the whole "marriage thing". However, being among friends who celebrated my happiness made the experience comforting. I laughed so much. I think I remembered crying, especially during the tissue paper, wedding dress competition. It was almost six years ago but there is nothing about it that I could forget. My soul sister, Sharell (CEO, SageEden) was so sensitive to the occasion, her planning and organization made me feel special, celebrated and confident before my big day. Looking back at the pictures brings back the excitement that my husband and I felt for each other, even before we were married. The day truly was one to remember for a lifetime!"
Brittany and Quincy Springs, Atlanta Georgia- Anniversary Photoshoot 2009
Brittany and I were married on July 15, 2008. Twelve days later I began the initial phases of my deployment to Afghanistan. Only after two short weeks together, we prepared ourselves to spend our first year of marriage apart. I was blessed to return to my lovely wife on 21 July 2009, six days after our first anniversary. After such a difficult year apart, we wanted an escape. And what better place to seek our escape than The Bahamas, where we could share our blessed happiness with Sharell & SageEden. Unable to share in the traditional bliss of matrimony, she supported us during the entire deployment. To help celebrate our marriage and our first anniversary, she surprised us with a photo shoot as a special anniversary gift. The photos turned out beautifully and we shall cherish them for years to come. (Photos & Makeup art by BKNS)
Miquelle Swann Nairn, Nassau, The Bahamas- Baby Shower 2009
Hi, I'm Miquelle and I had the extreme pleasure of having SageEden plan and coordinate my baby shower on November 14th, 2009. The only things that I had to do were to supply Ms. Ferguson with the names and contacts of the people I wanted to invite, and I described the type of ambiance I wanted for the event. The rest was left completely out of my hands, and I must say that I was very impressed with the choice of venue, the catering, the planned games, and SageEden's efficiency. I was left with a truly memorable moment that I will treasure for the rest of my life. Thank you SageEden!!!
Andera Forbes- Personal Shopping Client, Nassau Bahamas
"A great vision brought forth a great company.. SageEden "Creating forever moments". I hold such a great privilege of knowing a phenomonal woman... the CEO of SageEden, Sharell Ferguson.
When I found out about SageEden I was so excited! It's an incredible feeling of having a "personal shopper". I was in search of some leopard print shoes that I really wanted.. so, I contacted Sharell... and she was on the move and excited about 'creating a forever moment' for me. I recently recieved my shoes... and I LOVE THEM! Just what I wanted. Thank you Sharell and the team at SageEden. I can't wait to use your services in the very near future! I would recommend anyone to have SageEden create a forever moment for them.
SageEden ROCKS!!!
Aneta- Nassau, The Bahamas
"I needed a camcorder charger from before Christmas but wasn't able to locate it anywhere in Nassau. I happened to mention my frustration to Nadine and she asked me for the model number and said she will do some research. She called me back the following day and told me that she found it at a very, very reasonable price. Thank you so much SageEden for offering this service it alleviates so much stress and now I'm able to create memories. I will recommend this company many times over. Nadine you're the best!"
Shenique Gray- Miss Gospel Bahamas 2009-2010 - Surprise Birthday Party
"Twenty five years", "a quarter of a century", "silver jubilee" or however you term it...my twenty-fifth birthday was unforgettable thanks to Sharell, SageEden founder and personal friend. Who else could orchestrate a surprise party at my own home!? Understanding that all I needed to make my Valentine 25th spectacular was to be surrounded by the friends and family I hold dear, this exuberant and loving young lady saw fit that I celebrated my birthday in grand style taking care of every detail (including the decor, guest list, and dress code)! To put the icing on the cake (no birthday pun intended), a beautiful collage reflecting some of my most cherished moments adorned an easel the entire night, on which all in attendance had the opportunity to share their birthday prayers and wishes with me. The same lovely piece now hangs on the wall in my bed chamber and is a precious reminder of that lovely night and my dear family and friends who shared it with me! All thanks to Sharell and SageEden...
Carl- Nassau Bahamas, Valentine's Day 2010
"I almost made the same mistake of doing the routine basket, candies, teddy bear, etc. however, after talking with Nadine (SageEden) I got a whole new world of ideas from a female's and personal shopper's perspective. After giving her my personal description about my girlfriend and her preference, she came up with very unique ideas for Valentine's Day that made me look thoughtful and extremely wonderful in my girlfriend's eyes...believe it or not she saved my Valentine's Day and I got all the credit!"
