  Sorry...lol! I'll just copy and paste
  
  The Grand Valley Dale Ballroom - Ceremony/Reception Venue
  
  For the most part, we were very pleased with Valley Dale. The style and ambiance of the venue fit our Great Gatsby theme PERFECTLY and we couldn't have been more thrilled to have found this little gem. The staff were very helpful on the day of the wedding and were very attentive and played a huge role in making our day very special.
  
  94th Aero Squadron - Rehearsal Dinner Venue
  
  We used The 94th for our rehearsal dinner and were beyond pleased! They worked well with use in the days and weeks leading up to the rehearsal dinner. They were ready to go when we showed up and the food and service was simply wonderful. We are looking forward to the next time we come here for dinner!
  
  Boardwalk Catering - Caterer
  
  Laura and her staff did a fantastic job the day of and the days leading up to our wedding! Not only was she quick to respond to calls and emails, her food was amazing! We had SEVERAL comments from family and guests about how wonderful the food was. Her staff was also very attentive and helpful during the reception. I will most definitely recommend Laura to anyone and look forward to using her services in the future!
  
  Kevin Keefer Photography - Photographer
  
  We met Kevin early on in our planning process and have been beyond thrilled from day one that we chose him for our wedding photographer. They say that you need to feel comfortable with your photographer and he was every bit of that. Our package included an engagement session, which turned out to be so amazing and a blast to do! Neither my husband or I had experienced "photo journalism" before, but we quickly realized how fun it was....there were times when we didn't even realize Kevin was there. His passion for what he does is very clear and shows in our amazing photos. We are most definitely looking forward to using his services in the future.
  
  Elegant Touch Events - Florist
  
  Our overall experience with Lora was fantastic! We didn't really have any specific requests as far as our flowers, but she was able to create amazing things just by our Gatsby theme and our colors. We had MANY compliments about our centerpieces from guests and family members. She was very easy to communicate with and fun to work with. We would most definitely recommend her to future brides.
  
  Anita Kline - cake artist
  
  We cannot say enough about Anita! When we first met her, we knew that we'd found the right cake vendor. She was very sweet and very knowledgable. We did not have an exact vision of what we wanted our cake to look like, but only had ideas and a theme. She was able to create the most perfect and beautiful cake for us. Aside from the outside image of the cake, it tasted DELICIOUS!!! Love this lady and would recommend her to anyone!!
  
  The Wedding Plantation - bridesmaid and groomsmen attire
  
  We used The Wedding Plantation for our bridesmaid dresses, groom, groomsmen and father of the bride's suites. They had a very nice selection and we were able to find exactly what we were looking for. They were quick to respond to phone calls. The downfall: their organizational skills are a little lacking. The day before the wedding, we found out that they hadn't ordered the father of the bride's suit. Granted, they quickly fixed the problem and the suit was there when it was needed, but this could have easily been avoided and there could have been a little less stress. This was the only issue that we had and aside from this, we were pleased with our overall experience.
  
  Bella Laccio Bridal - bridal gown pressing and steaming
  
  Bella Laccio was the vendor I chose for the pressing and steaming of my wedding dress. Jen of Bella Laccio came highly recommended from my wedding planner, The Finer Things Event Planning, and my alterations lady, Linda Hine. Jen was easy to work with and very nice.
  
  Linda Hine - alterations
  
  Linda was beyond amazing! Not only did she do a fantastic job with my dress, but she was so sweet and VERY efficient! She made me feel beautiful and I would highly recommend her to any bride!
  
  Fermata Music - ceremony musicians
  
  We used Fermata for our ceremony music, specifically the harp/violin duo, and were VERY pleased! They were able to create the exact ambiance that we were looking for for our wedding ceremony. As a musician myself, I can safely say that their talent and class was very clear. We would most definitely recommend Fermata to anyone in search of musicians.
  
  Occasionally Custom Correspondance - ALL things paper
  
  These gals are FANTASTIC!! We consider ourselves VERY fortunate to have found them for all of our paper nees for our wedding. They were able to create a beautiful design for our invitations and even gave us decore inspiration, which we incorporated in our table numbers. The compliments came when we sent out our invitaions and continued through the end of the wedding with everything from our programs to the seating chart. A wedding guest even took her invitation and had it set professionally in a frame and gave it to us as a gift. It was BEAUTIFUL and probably one of our favorite gifts. These ladies have so much talent to offer and we would highly recommend them to anyone! Thanks for making our wedding special in your own way, girls!
  
  Columbus Trolley - transportation
  
  We used Colubus Trolley as transportation from our venue to Franklin Park Conservatory and back. We had a very positive experience with them and would highly recommend them! They showed up on time and our driver was very nice and helpful. Their pricing is also very reasonable. We had many compliments on the trolley and are very pleased with our overall experience.
  
  Michelle Buzaki - hair stylist
  
  I used Michelle's servics for my wedding hair and could NOT be more pleased! I did not have any pictures to show her initially because I was unsure of what I wanted or what would work for me. She was able to create the perfect style for me just going by my theme. She was easy to work with and was quick to respond to emails and phone calls. I am so glad I chose her to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone!!
  
  Kelli Ramey - makeup artist
  
  Kelli was amazing! When I first met her for my trial, I was confident that I had made the right choice. She was quick to respond to communication and exceeded all my expectations. On the day of my wedding, she came to our hotel suite ready to work and on time. Her personality glowed and put everyone and myself at ease. I would highly recommend Kelli to anyone and will most definitely be using her services in the future!!
  
  The Finer Things Event Planning - wedding planner
  
  Where do we even begin?? Jennifer was the best thing to happen to us for wedding planning. We met her before we were even engaged and knew we had made the right decision in choosing her as our wedding planner. We interviewed 5 other Columbus wedding planners and our choice was very clear in the beginning. For the year+ that we were planning with her, we never doubted that we'd made the right decision. She is very knowledgable in the industry and is very passionate about what she does. She recommended each and every one of the wedding vendors that we chose and we were beyond pleased with all of them. My husband and I were able to enjoy the time we were engaged knowing that Jennifer was handling all the small details for us. That in itself is one of the greatest gifts anyone could ask for. We not only gained peace of mind and comfort knowing that our wedding planning was in the greatest of hands, we also gained a friend. And we will be forever grateful that Jennifer played a very important role in the most importand day of our lives. Thank you, Jennifer, for everything that you've done for us.
  
  Z-Sharp Big Band - reception band
  
  We were BEYOND pleased with The Z-Sharp Band! They helped to capture our Great Gatsby themed wedding with such precision. Mary Rose, Jimmy and the rest of the band members were so wonderful to work with and we are so grateful for their talent and could not have asked for a better turn out. We received countless compliments on their performance! My husband and I, along with our wedding guests and family, truly enjoyed dancing to the big band music, and would HIGHLY recommend Z-Sharp to anyone in search of fantastic musicianship. Thank you, guys, for making our wedding day the spectacular event that it was. We are so grateful that you were a part of our dream come true
