Delray Beach Golf Club - A+++++++++++++++++
http://www.jcdsportsgroup.com/delray_beach_golf_club/index.html
Not only is the Delray Beach Golf Club a very beautiful location, but the catering director, Beth Mullen, was sooooooo great!!!! Anything I needed/wanted she took care of and everything was PERFECT! The reception room holds over 200 guests, and there is no need to decorate because the room is already so pretty with wall sconces, hanging twinkle lights and bay windows looking out onto the golf course. The food was excellant, even better than at the tasting and the cake was really good too! I would recommended this venue to everyone.
Changes Hair Studio - A++

Adrianne from Changes Hair Studio made my simple hair stlye look beautiful. All the stylists there are very talented. Nothing better than being pampered, sipping a mimosa!
Tradewinds Music, Inc. A++

I will definately use Jim Breen from Tradewinds Music for other events! Not only is he a DJ, but he is a talented guitarist as well. During cocktail hour he played his acoustic guitar and sang songs from wedding related to jimmy buffet. I have received so many compliments on the variety of music he chose and his voice. He sang some frank sinatra and people had to make a double take to realize it was the DJ! Jim Breen carries himself nicely. He is not the kind of DJ who gets on the dance floor and breaks it down, but he definately gives a great entertaining evening.
Love's Flower Shop - A+++
www.lovesflowers.com
I cannot say enough good things about Loves! They are a local business that can deliver a beautiful product and are not over-priced. Tammie was such a nice person to work with! At our consultation she brought out flowers to do a trial run to see exactly what I liked. She was very detailed in the contract so you knew you were going to get what you wanted. The flowers turned out more amazing than I imagined and I got so many compliments on the vibrant colors. I will definatly use Love's as my florist for all occasions!
Photobooth Social A+

If you are debating whether or not to spend the extra money, I would 100% recommend getting a photobooth. The owner, Elizabeth, was the photobooth attendent. She let me know everything I needed to bring prior to the reception because I was suppling my own scrapbook. She took care of helping the guests create wonderful memories for Joel and I, and the CD of all the pictures was ready at the end of the night. Everyone had a fantastic time with this!
Mister Formal - A
www.MisterFormal.net
Mike and Antonio were super nice and accomodating. Everytime I called they knew who I was and greeted me. They are competitivily priced and have EVERY color imaginable. We picked up our tuxes a day before the wedding. The only reason I didn't give them a "+" is that my dad's shirt was white instead of ivory and that he ring bearers tux was a little big. However, we didn't give them the opportunity to fix the shirt color because I didn't notice until the wedding day and the ring bearers tux was fixed asap. It is our fault for not having him there to try it on at pick up. I will recommend them to everyone and go there again when a tux is needed. I love to give my business to the locals rather than chains like mens warehouse.
Indie Atlantic Films - A+ (havn't seen the final product yet)

LaDanez Limo/Bus One - B+
http://www.linkedin.com/pub/denise-albritton/11/863/556 and www.bus-one.com
Could not beat the price!! We got a 16 passenger white escalade limo for less than what a regualar 10 passenger limo wanted to charge us. It had somewhat to do with the owner of the company being a friend of a friend, but the limo was BEAUTIFUL! The driver was very nice. He was a few minutes late, but i'm not sure is there was miscommunication on my part or not. There was also a slight smell, exhast maybe? There were sodas and water provided.
Passion For Pastry - Groom Cake - D

Review to be Updated. . .
As of now, I'm not a happy camper. We will see how their customer service is soon because I am waiting to hear back from them. Positives - the cake was very tasty and communication had been good throughout the process. Negatives - the cake was nothing like I wanted. I had sent detailed pictures of Moroso and the cars I wanted, which I said I could just bring matchbox cars because that was an important part, but they said htey could make them out of sugar. The scoreboards were nowhere to be found at the end of the track and that was clearly stated in the contract. In an email, I asked for "COBRA" to be written on the back of the silver car and there was nothing on either car to distingush they were mustangs. The staging light was not correct. The cake was half as small as I was told it would be, and it was not ready when my dad drove down to pick it up and they charged us to have it delivered!
