OK - Finally getting a small chance to breathe since the Sept. 2nd wedding and wanted to pass along my vendor reviews:
MB Bride (Greensburg) - Best selection of dresses, could actually try things on in my size or at least close to my size.....not alot of fun trying to squeeze into a size 2 when you usually wear a 14. Alternations and everything went smoothly.
Shakespeare's at Olde Stonewall Golf Course (Ellwood City) - Nicole and Alyson had everything under control and kept me calm and sane. The venue is beautiful and the service was fantastic all night long. I am still hearing rave reviews on the food the waitstaff. The package price included bascially everything we needed.
Sweet Bites Cookies (Robinson) - Ordered some rum balls and decorated sugar cookies. It was displayed well and tasted yummy!!!
Yoho's Chair Cover Rentals (Cranberry) - Terri provided me with the table lines, runners, chair covers, sashes and uplighting. All the tables looked fantastic.
Carol's Cakes (Aliquippa) - Carol designed the perfect cake for my theme and made chocolate seashells, cake was so pretty hated to eat it, but it was too good not to eat.
Posies by Patti (Ellwood City) - Patti was so much fun to work with and she totally embraced what I wanted to have for my wedding flowers and centerpieces. She also decorated our arch to go with our theme.
Jerry Walterick (Dormont) - Jerry doesn't normally do weddings but I had worked with him on a prior event. He took so many pictures (haven't seen them all yet) but so excited when I saw a little peak at some - can't wait to see the rest. We did not want alot of posed shots, more pictures that tell a story. Check out the link - and select Sean and Lynn's Wedding

Tropical Sands Steel Drum Band (Canonsburg) - Can't have a tropical wedding without a steel drum band!!!! Not only did we have them play for the wedding but they also recently added a vocalist so they did the ceremony as well. Songs for the ceremony sounded incredible and the learned to play what I asked them to - Save the Last Dance for Me, Over the Rainbow and I'm Yours. During the wedding they also did some modern hits to the steel drum beats - amazing!!!
Classic Limo (Coraopolis) - Great transporation company and competive rates. They worked with us in shuttle guests from hotel to venue and we did not lose anyone!!!
Overall it was such an amazing day and I wish I could do it again so I could enjoy it more....
Any questions about any of the vendors, feel free to ask.
Have a fantastic day!!!!
