I'M MARRIED!!!!! Wedding vendor reviews for everyone

Hi knotties...my day finally arrived !. I got married 9/8/2012. Except for the random tornadoes everywhere and on and off rain everything went perfect!!!! 

 The Wilshire Grand: A- They were amazing EXCEPT we dont have our cake top piece! they said they remember packing it for us and putting it in our suite so we dont know we just forgot to take it or if it was even in there. honestly I have no idea. But i'm over it. Besides that everyone loved the cocktail hour and the after party we had at primavera rests bar next door. It was an additional charge but well worth it. The wilshire grand did an excellent job and food was amazing and everyone loved the ambiance. Everyone came up to me after wedding and said the same exact words. 

Crest Florist: B+ Everything in the end came out beautiful! Centerpieces were beautiful and full. I did Everyother tall and small on al tables. Bouquets were beautiful and just what I wanted and mine was gorgeous. They were a little hard to work with since they are so busy and kinda of werent listening to what I wanted to much but with more talking the final product was amazing. 

Photography by orlando: A : They were amazing amazing! Even my limo guy said hes been doing weddings for 25 yrs and my photographer was awesome and knew exactly what he was doing. I even commented on him and said u really love what you do. I didn't have orlando becaouse he negotiated with me on the price and He sent another great photographer who works with him. Excellent photographer and videographer!!!

Dj : Mystical Entertainment : A : Great music . Everyone told me he ws a great mc and great music. I am very italian and big italian wedding I had and it was great. He mixed it up and everyone didn't want to stop dancing! Great!

Limo: Action Limo in garwood. A++++. I was nervous with limo companies because you here horror stories and this place was great. They showed up 15cminutes early. Everything was clean . They knew where they were going. we had a 35 pass party bus and a bentley car for my dad and I. Party bus Was awesome . They always had water stayed with us the whole time. Fixed my dress. Helped with everything!!!! you need a limo company choose them!!!!!! and both the drivers were amazing!!!

    <div>You mean YOU negotiated with HIM on the price. You didn't want to pay his price, so he gave you someone cheaper.</div>
  • bereasonable2......We both negoitated. He originally wanted to charge me 9000 for video and photographer. I refused. He is overpriced compared to other photographers but they re work was great. He showed me the other photographers work as well and I agreed to it. I also didn't want the engagement session he includes in his package I chose so I asked for alot more thank you cards and he agreed to that too. They were great to work with. I knew I was getting a different photographer. That was a 3500 price drop from just having him not do it. 
  • This is great info.  I'm getting married on 9/21 at the Wilshire and we also booked Orlando for photo and video.  We are getting Orlando along with another photographer so I'm happy to hear his team is as great as him!
  • I haven't been able to get a response from Action limo on pricing. Were they reasonable? What about Crest Florist?
  • I think action was reasonable. They were also the only limo company i could find that had 35 pass and bigger party buses. They are busy.so keep trying! And crest florist was a bit pricey. But again with negoitating a little it fit into my budget. He wanted 200 a center i got him to 175 and 75 for the smaller ones. 12 bouquests including mine. 18 bout. 2 arrangements for church. And moms and grandmothers flowers was about 5000. 22 tables total.
