Vendor Reviews

This is LONG overdue but I’ve been meaning to write my reviews since last Spring.  Better late than never, right?  I have nothing negative to say about any of my vendors, the day was PERFECT and our vendors were on it.  We were nothing less than thrilled…A+ for all! 
Photographer: Powers Studioswww.powersstudios.com/">www.powersstudios.com Our photos turned out amazing and everything with Powers Studios went very smoothly.  They were great with getting my family under control (not easy) for formals and got through them really quickly so we could join the festivities.  If I had a complaint at all, it is that we got too MANY photos.  It was hard to narrow them down but that’s a great problem to have. 
Video: Hybrid Moonwww.hybridmoon.com/">www.hybridmoon.com Amazing, wonderful, creative.  I cannot say enough about how great our video turned out.  Its captivating and tells the story of the day perfectly.  Several of our friends/family have watched it and absolutely loved it.  Their product is not your typical cheesy video—they do a fabulous job 
Wedding Planner:  Bridal Blisswww.bridalbliss.com/">www.bridalbliss.com The day flowed so smoothly and there is no way I could have enjoyed it as much as I did if there wasn’t someone in the background in charge of all the details.  The coordinators were wonderful, they dealt with all the vendors, and made sure everything was better than perfect.  I couldn’t have had this wedding without Bridal Bliss. 
Dress/Bridesmaids: Anna’s Bridalwww.annasbridal.com/">www.annasbridal.com Great shop, wonderful service, detail oriented.  I didn’t have to look around too much because they had such a great selection and they had my perfect dress.  I absolutely loved my dress and my bridesmaids looked gorgeous.  The alterations turned out perfect, I didn’t have to pull up my strapless dress, and I felt so good in it.  It is obvious that the girls that work at this shop love what they do and they are very good at it. 
Florist: Geranium Lakewww.geraniumlake.com/">www.geraniumlake.com Kim is amazingly creative and great to work with.  Our flowers and linens were STUNNING. She listened to what I wanted, expanded on it, and made it all look like a bigger and better version of what I was thinking.    
Caterer: Jake’s Cateringwww.governorhotel.com/">www.governorhotel.com Our wedding was in the Governor Hotel and Jake’s catered everything.  Their service is extraordinary and the food is wonderful.  I’m amazed how they can cook a steak perfectly for so many guests.  They worked with us to create a custom menu off of what they normally do and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how great the food was. 
Cake: Dream Cakeswww.judyreesedreamcakes.com/">www.judyreesedreamcakes.com Judy was so wonderful to work with—I had a few cakes that I loved and wanted to meld into one.  She custom designed our cake and it was PERFECT.  Not only did it look good, but we got so many comments about how delicious it was. 
Band: Swingline Cubswww.swinglinecubs.com/">www.swinglinecubs.com Swingline Cubs are such a great band! They even learned a special song that my mother in law wanted for the mother/son dance.  They kept all our guests dancing all night and had such a high energy. 
Makeup: Event Cosmeticswww.eventcosmetics.com/">www.eventcosmetics.com Katherine Sealy was so fun and is amazing at what she does.  My makeup took a good chunk of time but I felt beautiful when she was done.  She sticks around for touch-ups and is really a pro at what she does.  The girls looked beautiful and she left us all with makeup to do our own touch-ups late night. 
Transportation: Lucky Limousinewww.besolucky.com/">www.besolucky.com The drivers were early, the cars were clean, and everything was great with the transportation. 

Let me know if you have any questions on my vendors, I cannot say better things about them!
