Sorry I have been so MIA lately! My work blocked the knot and that is where I did most of my Knoting
And also to be honest I burnt myself out a little because I was on here so much! But I know I owe you all a vendor review since I had received so much help from you ladies! Our wedding in all was awesome just one major mess up which I will explain once we get our refund! Royal Lane Baptist Church - A: They were awesome! The church was beautiful and our wedding coordinator there was on top of everything! This place is gorgeous and so easy to work with! They have so few restrictions compared to most churches. We were able to use our own minister and we did not have to take any required courses. Six Pence Weddings (Kandice Ray and Jackie Reitz Photography): A+++++++ : Booking these ladies to capture our big day was the BEST decision I made in the planning process! They are not only amazing photographers but awesome ladies! They are priced sooo well for the work they do and what you get. They give you the CD with all the rights to your photos so you can print them as you wish! They have posted a sneak peak on their website of our wedding if you want to check it out.
www.reitzphotography.com. They did my B-pics, engagements, bridals and wedding day... They rocked them all!!! Love Notes (Marty Younkin) Minister: A+++++: He was awesome just like everyone else has said! He made the guests laugh through the whole ceremony! We had so many compliments on him. He made the ceremony full of life and fun like we wanted! Another great choice! La Cima Club (Sherry Montoya): A++++: They really lived up to my expectations! The club itself is beautiful but the service is what is amazing! Sherry was so great to work with through out the whole process! She responded to all my emails within just a few hours. She told me she responds to all her emails before she leaves for the day! She also went above and beyond at booking us a helicopter to leave in after the reception. The day of the wedding was great too. The room setup was just like I wanted and the signature drinks were AWESOME (and strong)!! Andy with A Music Wave (DJ): A+++++++: Andy was everything I wanted in a DJ. He played great music, looked nice, and was not cheesy at all! He is so affordable and should probably charge more than he does because he is great! He was probably my 2nd best choice in vendors! Book Andy and you will not regret it! He almost even took on a coordinator role as he kept checking with me on timing and to make sure I was ready for the events throughout the evening! If he was not a part of the wedding I don't think things would have ran as smooth as they did. SEAT By Design (linens): A+: I really didn't have much interaction with them since they set up and picked up before I arrived. They did exactly what I said to do and had no issues and even mailed me swatches because I didn't have time to drive to their studio to look at samples. They were great to work with. Delicious Cakes: A+++++: WOW! Their cakes are AMAZING! Talk about the best cakes I have ever tasted... not to mention gorgeous as well! They are not the cheapest cake place but it was totally worth it! We had the raspberry cake with buttercream icing. What makes their cakes so great and moist is the butter liquor sauce they pour over it before they ice it! mmmmm! Yum!! Blue Diamond Limos (Rolls Royce): F: We are waiting for a refund so I will hold off on this review once we have received our check just to make sure we get it. I also thing this particular review deserves its own post! UGH! The Joule Hotel (Wedding Night) A+++: Talk about romantic! We had a rose petal turn down with a note on our bed for free in room breakfast the next morning. We had one of the 2 rooms in the whole hotel that has a balcony! I highly recommend requesting one of those rooms! It was great to have our breakfast on the patio the next morning and the food was awesome! They really went above and beyond ensuring that our big night was special. We will be returning when we celebrate our anniversary!
