Hi everyone,Good luck to everyone still planning their wedding and congratulations to everyone who survived their big day! I was absolutely thrilled with a few of my vendors (I just got married a little over a week ago) and wanted to share them with all of you. I haven't lived in NEPA for over 8 years now and planned the entire wedding from out of state - I don't believe everthing would have been as perfect if it were not for these people below.Florist/Decor/Invitations - Lavender Goose in Peckville.Joyce and her team were amazing. They customized all the bouquets and floral arrangements - my bouquet was so perfect that people didn't believe they were real flowers! She also went above and beyond decorating the ceremony and reception sites - she took our ideas and made them 1,000 times better than we could have imagined. One of the highlights of the night was our a candy table - so she worked with us in picking our favorite red and white candies and did a phenomenal job with the layout. Oh, and I almost forgot to mention that I ordered my wedding invitations from her!Here's a photo of the candy table:

Val met me at Ulta to help pick out the best make up and colors. Red was one of my wedding colors, and I never wear lipstick yet wanted to the day of. She went through the types of stains and longer lasting lipwear - I only reapplied right before the reception! We were also able to fit in a trial run of both a couple days before the wedding to save time and make sure we were on the same page. I could not have been happier with the final outcome! I'm so excited for our professional photos to come in.Bakery - Lynn Sandy's Scranton.Amazing customer service. I wanted to surprise my husband with a groomscake - I searched everywhere for someone who could screen an edible image onto a cheesecake - and they told me they'd make it happen. To make a long story short, the cake did not come out looking like I had envisioned. Lynn herself came on the phone to apologize and make it right, so she personally recreated the cake herself and had it delivered to the reception site immediately afterwards. Hope this helps anyone in need of vendors!Michelle
