Hey Ladies! I finally booked my date for July 6, 2012 at Mayernik Center.  For those of you who have gotten married there can you please give me some suggestions on vendors, i.e. DJs, florists, photographers? I have a referral for a DJ from a patient of mine (I work in a physical therapy office) but I'm unsure of how to select them at this point.  Any advice would be extremely helpful!

Thanks in advance! :)

    I'm getting married on July 30 this summer at the Mayernik!  So excited!

    And congrats!

    As you know, you have to choose one of their 4 caterers.  We chose Remo's because of their on-site grill.  (We are going for a BBQ picnic feel so it was perfect) and their food is DELICIOUS!

    We aren't using a DJ...we're doing it ourselves since my FI is tech-savvy and has dj'd b4.  And a friend of the family is MC-ing.  Plus, they have nice speakers set up for inside and outside that you just plug right into.

    We are using Blumengarten for our flowers...I'm actually coming home from Baltimore this weekend to meet with them!  They have been great!  And their work is gorgeous!

    We hired Pamela Marie Photography for our photos.  She is young, energetic and her stuff is amazing and just our style.  My FI is a wedding photographer so we had to choose none other than the best!

    Basically, just start researching...google stuff, click on the sticky on this board for the preferred vendors list.  This board will be really helpful for you!  The girls have been so helpful especially since I'm planning my wedding from Baltimore.

    Check out my blog and website for any ideas you may need!

    Happy Planning!

    Hi Ladies!
    We are getting married at the mayernik center september 29th 2012....that is pretty much all I have planned so far.  Amianne, do you know how many people they normally set at one table?  I am trying to figure out approximately how many centerpeices I will need.  Thanks!

    Colleenmarie-
    Shannon, one of the coordinators, said typically 8.  She said you can squeeze 9 but if you have a smaller event then you can always do more tables with less seats.  She said she also emails out a template of a seating chart so maybe you can ask her to email it to you early so you can get a true count?  Hope that helps!
