Hey brides! I got married on May 22 and couldnt be happier! It was very stressful leading up to the day but on the actual day of the wedding everything went perfectly due to my amazing vendors.
A+ List
Bridal by Elena (hair and makeup) fair prices - on time - willing to go the extra mile and my hair and makeup didnt move for the entire day like she promised! Even when it was raining
Camelot Limo Well I cannot say enough good things about Camelot! They were so professional the entire time, the limo driver actually got the hotel to pick us up 1hr early! The limo was exactly as it was when I originally saw it and stocked with champagne! They were also ontime when they picked up my husband and I after the wedding
Flowers by Burton
Fabulous with extremely reasonable prices. They will not charge you extra for certain flowers. I had purple orchids and I could afford it. Again they were very punctual and they threw in tons of extras free of charge ! ***heads up ladies, make sure your bridal bouquets are made of hearty flowers (I had picasso and white calla lillies) so that they will last for the entire wedding. A girlfriend of mine had roses and they were wilting by end of cocktail hr

The food, service and overall experience was fabulous - the only hiccup I had was tht the matre D and I were not on the same page and he kind of fell short. So if you book JT (it really is a fantastic place) make sure your Matre D has been doing it for a while

Well I cant be too harsh because to be honest I was running around saying my hellos to people that I didnt really get to dance that much but I was a little bummed that they botched my first dance song (it was a song they were not famaliar with and it showed- I wish they could have been honest and told me they werent comfortable with it. Otherwise they seemed to know what the crowd wanted. (I dont know if it was worth the cost) =/
Yet to be determined

Im not going to give out his name but a stern warning to the brides out there... make sure you like the work that you see from them and DO NOT skimp on the photos. I havent seen my pictures from the wedding yet but as for the day of the wedding. He was ontime but that was pretty much it. I told him specifically no (bed) shots when I was getting ready but he forced it. He made me walk around areas when it was raining that I wasnt comfortable doing. Anyways just be weary girls!
enjoy the day and try to take as many breathers as you can throughout the day
