Woohoo!!! We just got married!! Such a great weekend, and we survived!! Here are our vendor reviews!
Florist:
Donna at Central Market of N. Lamar is AMAZING!!! Found her based on reviews here on the knot, and she did not disappoint! She is super talented, and her prices are so reasonable! Book her if you can!!
Cake:
We went with cupcakes. Not our original plan, but so glad we did it! SO much easier to deal with after! Certsie's in Taylor, Texas (just north of Round Rock) is worth the drive! Curie's cupcakes are to die for! And she is so nice and great to work with!
Hair/Make up:
The girls at Green Alley Salon are so fun! They did all my hair and make up for engagements, bridals, and day of for everyone in my wedding. Kelsie did hair, and Chelsea did make up. We ended up getting ready at the salon, and I am so glad we did!! Their salon is the perfect backdrop for pictures! Definitely check them out! Oh, and the are very reasonably priced!
Alright, for the not so good list....
I had some issues with venues about 60 days out, so what we ended up with was not our first or even second choices unfortunately. We ended up having to get married at Great Hils Baptist Church. It was fine, but not what we wanted and definitely wish we didn't have to pay what we paid! BUT, we were grateful they made exceptions for us to have it there.
Bella Notte on Main was where we had our reception, and it was kinda a nightmare. They were hard to work with, and unprofessional. We had breakfast for dinner at our reception, and they forgot our biscuits and gravy completley day of! I mean, they completely forgot them!! THEN, when we called them after for a refund, they told us no!!! Can you believe it?!! Said it wasn't their fault. Well, then who's fault was it? I had to argue with them for a solid hour, and then Tori said she would have to talk to the owner and then call me back. No one called me back. I ended up getting a very small check 4 days later. Ridiculous.
Alterations:
Beatrice did my alterations, and she's a mess. She thinks very highly of herself. She ended up cutting too much off my dress, and had to work to fix it. Gave me no compensaion at all for her mess up. Had a hard time even owning her mistake. After it was all said and done she thanked me for not freaking out on her.
Hope this helps! If you have any quesions, let me know! Thanks to everyone who takes time to put helpful reviews! It helped me a lot throughout my planning process!
I had my own planner and ceremony music from out of town.
