Hi Everyone--- I'm gettting married at the Halifax Country Club next summer and have been having an awful time finding vendors (photography & dj) that I like or in my price range.  Anyone have any recomendations? If you prefer you can email me at mele1001@aol.com

    What's your budget for photography? Check out www.helenmakadiaphotography.com; she's newer to the business, so her prices are still relatively affordable.  She photographed my husband's surprise 40th in Feb., and she just photographed one of my friends' weddings in August.  Her work is beautiful.

    What are you looking to spend?  FWIW, all photographers/DJ's I've come across are willing to travel that far without extra charges, so you don't have to limit you discussion to only south shore brides.

    We're using John Cristoferi for our DJ. He has a great personality, he's affordable, and he is out of Rockland, I want to say.

    We're using Mike Pardi for our DJ, he is my FI's childhood friend. His company is Pardi Time Entertainment and he is very affordable. He also works for Unique Sounds, based out of Raynham. He has a great personality and is the type of DJ that would get the party going, if that's what you are looking forward. Let me know if you want his contact info. He lives on the North Shore, but our wedding is on the South Shore and is not charging to travel.

    I second John Cristoferi. He was great for my daughter's wedding.

    I am using Heather Parker (photog). Email me for details, but we are in the $2000 range. Her work is lovely (link to epics in my bio). She now lives in Chicago, but shoots weddings in Massachusetts (she's originally from the North Shore) with no travel costs. DJ is Aaron Topfer. With up front payment, we're well under $1K. Our wedding is in January, so we've benefitted some from off-season pricing. My grandmother workd at Halifax CC for years and my mother and father had their reception there. Enjoy!

    Check out www.athousandmoments.com - his prices are about average but the work is gorgeous. He does weddings all over NE and I don't think he charges for travel. In fact I think I found him on the south shore weddings website.
