Nevada-Las Vegas

It feels good to be home.....

Alhough we had a blast in Vegas, it feels good to be home. Our wedding was awesome, if we could do it again, we wouldn't change anything.

So here are some reviews, some pic's and the link to our COF photos (ENJOY):

Amelia C:   Amelia was great from the start, she was such a pleasure to work with, and she eased all my frustrations and worries during our time together. She arrived early for our 12:00pm start time, she asked a few questions about hair and makeup, we exchanged ideas, suggestions, and did a few revisions, but in the end my hair and makeup turned out excellent, way beyond my expectations. She did an amazing job!! I can't wait to go back to Las Vegas just to have Amelia make me over again, no matter the occasion, she's just that great. My husband even wanted to call her and tell how great of a job she did.  If you're looking for a hair and makeup artist, you CAN'T GO WRONG here.

Todd Wilson:  As everyone has already stated Todd  “IS AMAZING”. He arrived right on time and he literally walked through the door with his camera out and started snapping away. He also brought some company, Dion; I believe she was in training; anyhow she was just as great as Todd. We haven't received our pictures yet but we know they're going to turn out great. Todd and Dion came in and started taking pictures of everything and everyone that had to do with our wedding. We spent about an hour with Todd and Dion prior to the wedding and two hours after our wedding on the strip. My husband doesn’t like to have pictures taken of him and he made it clear to Todd and Dion but they both put him at ease, and he did not complain at all. In the end he actually enjoyed the time spent with Todd and Dion, and now he’s excited and anxious to see the pictures.

Debi -Fit For A Bride:  Debi was pleasure to work with. Although we planned to ship our wedding attire prior to our wedding, things changed. We informed Debi of the changes and she assured us we had nothing to worry about. She was very accommodating and reassuring. She picked up our wedding attire the morning of our wedding and had it back to us by 1pm for our 3pm wedding. Both my dress and my husband's suit looked better than it had when we first purchased them. Debi did an excellent job steaming our attire.

Chapel of the Flowers: 
We were married at COF on 2/14/2011, a very busy day for COF. Our ceremony went off without a hitch, everything was EXCELLENT. My customized bouquet and grooms boutonniere, turned out better than I imagined, they were fresh, smelled great and lasted a long time. We also brought our own music and all the songs were played exactly as requested. Our minister Al was awesome, he asked us how we wanted our ceremony performed, and he did an amazing job at that, while also incorporating our children and a poem into our ceremony. We weren't rushed, everyone who help us that day, from our AWESOME wedding planner Courtney (who was there to help from the beginning),  up until the Limo driver's Doug and Jason, all were awesome. Our photographers Vanessa and Shanna were also amazing; they took their time taking our photos and made sure we got pictures taken in all the spots we wished. Everything turned out great, all I can say is: "BRAVO Chapel of the Flowers". We can't wait to return in the future for a vow renewal.Lawry's Prime Rib: When we arrived the place was packed as it was Valentine's Day, but with our prior reservation we were seated within 5 minutes. They decorated our table with red rose petals and candles, setting a nice romantic atmosphere, because they knew we were coming directly from our wedding ceremony (a very nice gesture). Now the food was amazing, the best steak and lobster I've EVER HAD. Will love to visit Lawry's the next time we're in Vegas!

    Welcome home! Great to hear your wedding day was perfect! Looking forward to using Todd and COF even more now!

    Its also interesting to see someone with a very customised wedding at COF -- we have very specific flower requests, Reserved seating signs, etc -- good to hear they accommodated your requests well. The photos are fabulous!
