Please help an Old Knottie out! Need Vendor Recs!!!!

lyradelmar

HI ladies! wow! its been forever since I've posted on the knot. I was an October 2005 knottie, and our 5th year anniversary is coming up shortly. My husband and I are planning a nice, elegant (but budget-conscious) anniversary party and I am currently in the process of booking vendors. We already have the venue in Bayonne, NJ which is allowing outside catering and liquor services.

Here is where your suggestions/recommendations are needed and appreciated:

1. Two to Three  Freelance Bartenders/Mixologists.

2. Linen Rentals (looking for the most affordable but good quality tablecloths, chair covers and sashes) I've researched plenty of on-line vendors, but would prefer a local vendor if possible.

3. Bakery that makes colorful, unique and delicious cupcakes that can be custom-ordered for the event.

Again we are on a budget and hoping to get the biggest bang out of our buck:)

Thank you in advance for your help!

I remember you, pretty girl!  I was a Nov 2005 bride!  Now my cousin is getting married so I have been back on.  Hope you are well!

For #3, I highly recommend The Petite Cafe in Nutley. They're now $3.50 each, but I think you get a discount if you order more than 100: http://www.stuffedcupcakes.com/menus/stuffed-cupcakes/

I was just at the Cliffs of Moher a couple weeks ago! Isn't it lovely?

Yes, Ireland was a dream. One of the must-sees on my hubby's list. Especially the Guiness factory and Jameson Distilleries:)

Yankee Linen has great prices for table clothes and napkins but they are in Paterson and I am not sure if you are willing to travel - it is a 5 business day rental - napkins are .25 ea and table linens are 3.50 - 4.50 depending on size - best price I found
