Ashley Esterle
http://www.ashleyesterle.com/ . Ashley did our engagement photos too, and we could not be happier with her! She was there when we needed and her and blended effortlessly in the background to take adorable photos of our reception. We were complimented many times on her easy demeanor and professionalism. She was a calming presence and never felt overbearing or in the way. I plan on using her in the future! She is amazing, tell her Emily sent you! A++++++++++
Linens:
Finch Rental
www.finchrent.com . I would not recommend them to anyone. Ever. Read my "warning post" for more. I would give them an F, but they did show up ,even if it was two days late, so a D- it is. D-.
Cake:
Cake Weavers by Christina. She delivered our cake about 45 minutes later than promised but did deliver it all the way from Cinti. It was luck of the draw with her cake, some layers were moist and some weren't (we had five layers all different flavors). Our vision of the cake was not hers I don't think, but she did try to get it right for us and was easy to get a hold of and was pleasant. I would say B- or C+.
DJ:
DJ Tony from Crittenden, KY. He was always helpful very nice guy and easy to get a hold of, very comforting. Did a lot for us at a budget price! His lighting was excellent and he did go the extra mile for us. Some things didn't go exactly to plan (he played our second pick first dance song) but overall I couldn't really complain. Showed up on time ready to work and everyone danced. B.
Bartendering:
Epitome Bartending with George. George and I initially didn't hit it off right away but he did an excellent job for us. He made drinks that we didn't know we had liqour for and George himself worked our wedding in addition to two bartenders we had paid for. They were on time, pleasant and worked hard even remembering peoples drinks and giving it to them before they asked! Very cool! Highly recommend. A.
Flowers:
Furst Florist by Loann. Loann was the greatest! Our centerpieces were gorgeous and my flowers were beyond my wishes. Absolutely gorgeous. I got so many compliments. She can truly work with any budget and is easy to get a hold of. A+.
