I didn't think I could afford a florist for my wedding, but Vicki totally worked with me and the flowers were more than I could have imagined! Vicki is really good at getting you focused and delivering just what she says she will. She even loaned us some marbles to put into the vases to make them even better. She had the great idea of using the bridesmaid bouquets as centerpieces and saved me $200! She's fantastic and yet another vendor I felt lucky to have.

We were lucky enough to meet Laurie over at "Bake Me a Cake" in Winter Park. We were on a random date night and went for a sweet treat and met Laurie. She founded out through conversation (she's so friendly) that we were getting married and totally sat and chatted with us. We didn't intend to have a planner/coordinator, but after meeting Laurie we really wanted her to help us. She was invaluable for the days leading up to our big day. From checking out samples at the florist to running the rehearsal to spending all night the night before setting up, to day of making sure I didn't have to worry about anything but getting myself ready and enjoying the day, to cleaning up after and coming over when the honeymoon was over to drop off left over supplies, she did it all. In fact I'm sure there's things she did I have no clue about, she's that good. She sat at my house going over plans, making lists, etc. I know people think they can do it on their own, but do yourself a favor and get someone you can trust (I totally recommend Laurie) and give yourself the gift of enjoying your day, it goes so fast as it is.

Don't even bother reading reviews, if she has your date available and it's anywhere close to your budget go get her before she's gone! Our top 2 priorities were photographer and DJ. Both ended up being AMAZING and made our day so special! Ashley is so gifted. She captures your relationship, not just your picture or faces, but your chemistry together on film. Then she adds this amazing light....words cannot describe how grateful we are we got her. If you have the chance, she's a must!!!

We were very pleased with the outcome of choosing Creations. The food was really good. It was our goal for people to leave and say, "Wow, that wasn't crappy wedding food" and they totally did. Creations worked with our budget, which was really tight. They also helped out with drinks even though we were providing our own alcohol. We worked with Aimee who was a sweetheart. My only gripe was everything didn't really come together until the week of. I haven't catered much before, so I think it's the normal process (like they work on each event as it comes), but I was a little uneasy until I saw the outcome, which was beautiful and just as I wanted it. Aimee was great handling my many questions, even answering some questions multiple times, I would have been totally annoyed, but she was always very sweet and willing to take the time to explain. They hooked us up helping out with linens and cups. Definitely a choice we're glad we made!

We loved the Woman's Club. The price was right ($950) including tables and chairs. The best part of the venue was how easy they were to work with. Sally has been there for years and was beyond easy going, which was great among all the hustle and bustle of a wedding. We were able to have vendor meetings there during the day and even the rehearsal for no extra charge (dependent upon availability). The building is classic and traditional and didn't need much to spruce it up. We ended up with 120, it was a little tight, but we had room for a nice dance floor and we put the bar outside. The highlight of the venue was definitely how flexible they were, it made life so much easier. I highly recommend...just be careful on your guest list...too many people could have made it tough.
