Check! And a thank-you note from Mandalay Bay

Happy hump day, ladies!

Got back from a busines trip to Boston yesterday and when I went to pick up the mail I got a lovely handwritten thank-you note from my MB WC, Richelle, thanking us for choosing MB for our ceremony/reception.  Thought it was quite nice, considering she probably has thousands of other brides with whom she works too. :)

In other news, I just put my deposit down for Todd of Bentley & Wilson today...it was a tough decision between him and Mike L., but for $1,000 less I had to go with Todd.  Excited to work with him given all his great reviews lately...it's all coming together!

Next up: make my planning bio!

    Did Mike L's prices go up? Our 8 hour package with them was only $900. But we booked last fall.

    According to Mike L's website their wedding coverage starts at $1600. Thats why I'm going with Todd too, great pictures and half the price!

    Wow! Mike's prices did go up. We had 10 hours for $1,000 from them.

    Mike L's pricing went up on the 1st of the year but they had some sales that extended that for about a month or two if you booked using one of the sale codes.  Any existing bookings are of course being done at the contracted price.

    I'd still book Mike L anyway given the choice, for anyone planning extended coverage, since you get two photographers, so you can cover the girls and guys getting ready as well as never missing a shot due to bathroom breaks, eating, changing equipment, etc.

    Yeah, I think we missed out on the promotions.  We were quoted $1800 w/ Mike L vs. $800 w/ Todd for 8 hours.  Both Courtney (Mike's wife?) and Todd have been super pleasant via email, and their work is outstanding, so I don't think you can miss either way!
