Need vendor advice!!

Hey- I really need to still find a photographer and a florist for my wedding in March. My fiancee and I had some serious set backs (his mom unexpectedly passed away).  Now I am back to wedding planning and really have to get a move on to finding these vendors.  If anyone has any suggestions for any reasonable vendors, I would be so thankful!  :)

    What kind of a budget do you have for each?

    I am using Misty Miotto for photographer. She is AMAZING. She is a bit pricey, but totally worth every penny . (we splurged bc photos were imp. to us)

    and using InBloom for florist (VERY reasonable...as I only have a $500-$1000 budget)

    If you have more room for floral budget Lee Forrest is supposed to be terrific.

    I  went with InBloom for my flowers. I would have loved to have used Lee Forrest, but he simply wasnt in my budget. 

    I'm using Jessica Leigh for my photography- there have been some mixed reviews on her, but I've known her for years and never had a problem. She always responds to my emails within a day or two and I love her work.

    Try Tara at Fresh Face Photography! She was really budget friendly and her reviews are great!

    You should check out Peddles for your florist!  That is who we are using and she is great.  She works out of her home so her prices are very reasonable.

    GL!

    I highly recommend SUnshine Photographics for photos and Atmospheres for the flowers.  There are detailed reviews of both of them in the link in my signature below.

    I recommend Tab McCausland to the fullest. If you come across her blog, she just posted our wedding sneak peek :] And, her prices are very reasonable.

    For floral, I recommend Special Atmospheres (FKA DSR Designs). Miss Debbie is the best, personality & price wise! My bouquet was so full, heavy & really blew me away! :] GL!

    I just did my floral mockup with Vicki at Peddles, and I'm so very excited about the flowers for the centerpieces - they're gorgeous and she totally gets my vision/theme!  I priced out Peddles and Lee Forrest, and I loved them both but I liked Vicki's design better.  Also, Lee charges for mockups and I wasn't quite sure why you'd be charged for a sample before you buy.  What he described sounded neat, though, and both he and Vicki were very nice!  Both were pretty reasonable budget-wise.

    For photography, I've mentioned before on here my parents are wedding photographers, but ironically I can't use them since they have to actually attend my wedding and be in the pictures!  Two of their long-time associates are doing my wedding (though I'm pretty sure I'll still have to pry a camera out of their hands day of).

    We are using Country Charm Florist for our flowers.  She is extremely resonable with prices and her arrangements are great!!  Her flowers are actually in the featured wedding in the Space Coast Bridal Magazine this past issue. 

    She is located in Melbourne, so it depends what part of Central Florida you are getting married in.
