Vendor Reviews

I have a a review or 2 to share from my wedding over the weekend.  Sorry they're not super detailed.

Luna Vinca (florsit) - A+

The flowers were gorgeous.  I just did bouquets and bouts and was very pleased with how they turned out.  Jennifer really got a good idea of the bouquet that would fit me.

Divine Swine Catering - A+

There was one server there.  He got set up fairly quickly and was great with everything.  Helped with some stuff he didn't need to, very nice, presentable.  The food was really good.  The guests loved it.

Costco flowers in bulk - B+

I ordered roses in bulk online from costco (vistafluer or however it's spelled is the company it's through).  I got the flowers a little later than I expected, but still got there in plenty of time.  The red roses looked nice.  The white roses were kind of bruised looking on about a quarter of them.  I'd order from them again, but wouldn't get white roses.

Schaar's Bluff Gathering Center (Spring Lake Park Reserve) - A

The venue was beautiful, the person on hand wasn't always easy to find, otherwise I'd give an A+.

eta:  Mens Wearhouse:  D 

We went through the Eden Prairie store.  The guy (bigger, old guy) was an ass.  He was very unhelpful.  The tuxes looked fine, we were under the impression that H's would be free, but apparently not.  They didn't give H his shoes and I had to go back 2 days after to get them.  Guy seemed really irritated about it and took forever looking for them.  H dealt with them mostly and he wasn't happy with the service.

    I'm happy that everything seemed to go well for your big day! Thanks for the ratings! That's a shame that the associate at the Mens Warehouse was a bit of a jerk.

    For the flowers you ordered, did you use them for decoration at the ceremony and reception? If so, did you put them up or have someone else do it?

    <div>Used them for the centerpieces.  They turned out really nicely.  A coworker put them together for me.</div>
  • Sucks that the EP Men's Wearhouse was a bust. That's where FI and I are thinking of getting tuxes. We talked to a different guy when we were there and he seemed okay :-)
