Ok, so this is super late(I got married 7.18.09), but better late then never!Photographer- Juliet JonesShe was so awesome. So friendly, and personable. Her style was spot on to my tastes, and I loved all of our pictures to death! her website is Julietelizabeth.comCoordinator-Melanie MurphyI looooved Melanie. She was great. She saved us so much money on our caterer and decor(she has a collection of decor that clients can use...vases, couches, candle holders, cake stands, lanterns etc). Everything was perfect, and was exactly what I pictured.Flowers - Flowerexchange.comI did my own flowers, b/c I couldn't justify spending a few thousand for a florist to do them the way I wanted. The flowers are shipped overnight, and after a day of rehydrating, they are ready to be put together! You can check out our pics on Juliet's site (client proofs, nicole and craig) to see how beautiful the flowers were. I was really satisfied with the quality.Transportation - absolutely charlestonmeh. They were ok...They sent us the wrong trolley to pick up the bridal party. The one we ordered broke down, so it was all they could do. The problem was that the trolley had a top speed of 45 mph, and we had to travel from IOP to downtown charleston for the ceremony...so we were 25 minutes late!!Band - Joe clark bandWe had their quartet, and I was really looking forward to their music. But they were over an hour late, and they didn't know how to play our first dance song....which we asked them if they knew before we hired them....A little annoying.Caterer - Royal Grand EventsCurtis is awesome! The food was fabulous. He had his own portable kitchen, and serving ware(bowls, utensils etc). Since we were having a family style dinner, this helped our rental budget a lot! I can't recommend him enough!Reception venue- Boone Hall cotton docks.I love the cotton docks. They're right on the marsh and in such a beautiful location. Truely to die for. Just beware that they do not have any air conditioners.....(we brought our own window unit)Cake- Jean Paul's creative cakesOur cake was stunning. She makes her own fondant, and it was delicious! But, it was also a wedding gift, so I can't comment on cost
All in all, our day was magnificient and everything I wanted!! Good luck to everyone in their planning!!
