Which is better

Have 3 quotes from photographers, not sure which one to use. We only need 4 hours, ceremony, portraits and some reception, so here is the offerings i've got:
1st: for $957.00 will get engagement, 125 4x6, book and disk
We really don't need engagement photos, i wonder if 125 prints is too many? We will get a disk.

2nd for $500.00 will get a disk, he gave me prices to purchase prints, his photos not so great but what do i know?

3rd for $925.00 will get 200 edited images on dvd and online gallery to purchase additional prints, this photographer i like the best, but not sure if deal is all that good.

any thoughts? what would you do?
thanks!

    Looks like the 3rd one is the only one giving you edited pics? I would go with that one. Also, you say you like them best, so go with your gut. Sounds VERY reasonable to me compared to prices I've seen. =O)

    Did you check to see what other brides' reviews are on them?  I'd check weddingwire.com and google them.

    I'm not so sure I like what any of them are offering! LOL Definitely check out Wedding Wire, I like the idea of engagement pictures so you can see how your photographer works and you can get comfortable before your big day. I found a lot of uses for our Epics and I'm glad we took them. 200 pics on disc? I don't know if that's good... we had over 700 edited pictures on disc.  We had them about 7 hours but still... so approximately 350 for the time you need and that's still more than what he is offering....

    I will vouch for In True Colors, we did our engagement pictures with Marina and she is so easy to work with and her style is different and unique. If you don't like being posed and like candid photos, i will definitely recommend her.

    I guess it all depends on the photographer.  To me that was THE most important vendor of our wedding.  We are going with Jason Angelini!

    I think everyhting he does is amazing!  I love his work so much I have changed my wedding date twice just to get him!
