I was married in Northern Ky on December 3rd and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding! I know how hard it is to find the "perfect" vendors, but I have to say that everyone I worked with in the Northern Ky/Cincinnati area was absolutely amazing so I just wanted to share it and hopefully it will help some of you future brides!
Hair/Make-up- Crystal Rieger- EyeDo Lash and Make-Up Design--I can't even start to describe how amazing this girl is! She not only did my make-up and hair but did my entire bridal party and everyone looked GORGEOUS! I have had so many people ask me who did my hair and make-up and this girl is it! You always want to believe that you look your best on your wedding day and because of Crystal...I don't think I have ever looked better! PLEASE contact her if you need someone to do your hair and make-up--I guarantee you will LOVE her!
Flowers- Art's Floral- (Mary Joan)- My flowers were incredible and Mary Joan with Art's Floral was great to work with!!! She was always available to add/change anything and her suggestions were perfect!
Cake- Fantasy N Frosting (Newport) (Nancy)- Nancy was so great to work with and we got some many compliments not only how our cake looked but how it tasted. It was INCREDIBLE!!!!
Photographer- Blue Martini Photography (Christin Rahn)- UNBELIEVEABLE!! Christin is not only the sweetest person you will ever meet, but the most professional photographer I have ever dealt with! She knew exactly what she wanted and told you exactly how she wanted you- it was GREAT! She was right there when you needed her but "wasn't there" if that makes sense. She was never in the way or hounding us to do anything- she was just there and captured every single awesome moment (with her assistant Nikki- who was also great!) Christin answered every single email and phone call literally within minutes and we had our pictures posted on her website within 3 days of our wedding. The pictures were AMAZING! I couldn't have asked for or wanted anything more. If you are looking for a photographer--PLEASE look up Christin at Blue Martini Photography--you WILL NOT regret it!
DJ- Spinning Label- (Jeff Reynolds)- I am running out of adjectives to describe everyone but Jeff was fantastic! I had so many people come up to me at the wedding and say he was the best DJ they have ever heard and he was!! Our dance floor was packed the ENTIRE night! I wasn't the type of Bride that wanted to take my time with everything- I wanted to get through all of the cake cutting and stuff quickly so people could party and Jeff handled the crowd perfectly- kept the night moving and never once was the dance floor empty!! I HIGHLY recommend Jeff for your DJ!!!
Reception Hall- The Marquise (WIlder, KY)- BEAUTIFUL! I live in SC but am from Cincinnati so it was difficult for me to plan things from here but Sarah McHale from The Marquise helped me with everything! I talked with her through email and phone calls and told her what I was looking for. 2 days before the wedding I met with Sarah to finalize everything and made some last minute changes. When we walked into the room it took my breath away. It was beautiful!! The food was great and the service was awesome!! The banquet manager Kelly was always there to get not only my husband and I a drink whenever we needed it, but our bridal party and parents! She was always there to get us whatever we needed and so incredibly sweet, The whole staff at The Marquise was wonderful and we couldn't have asked for anything better!
Well, I hope this at least helps some of you looking for vendors in the Cincinnati/NKY area! Please send me a message if you have any questions or would like to know anything else about the wedding or who I used for what. I said it our wedding night and I will forever continue to say that I couldn't have asked for anything better or more on our wedding day. Everything really was beautiful and perfect so I HIGHLY recommend all of these vendors!!!
Happy Planning!!!!
