    im not planning on having flowers  (except for mine and the girls) so none of them, but i did book with one of there photographers  Patken, we already took our e-pics and really happy with them.

    have you been to any of the showcases they have?  they are pretty helpful, we also got a nice discount  when we booked cause of it.

    Patken is great!  they did a beautiful job on my sisters wedding!!  U will be very happy with them throughout the process.  do they do e-pics for free for signing?  I heard a rumor about that.  I was thinking of using them too.  I did go to the last showcase they had.  I went with my mom so she didnt want to stay late so i only got to get info and leave basically.  did u have to book with them that night or did u just say u were at the showcase.

    We first saw them and liked them while at the showcase but didnt call for a long time to make an appointment but since we mentioned the showcase they still honored the package they were giving then. i think they may also give all  ch brides that deal.   so our package included the e-pics and save the dates.

    but i think package or no package they always that e-pics cause from what i believe thats how they match you with a photographer.

    Can I ask u what they charged for ur package? If u consider that personal I totally understand. The package seems to be what I am looking for, I just want to make some comparisons. Congrats kelbell!!! I think we made a great choice too. Check out flowers by jack on woodbury road. I have an appt there after seeing them at the bridal expo. There flowers were exactly what I am looking for. If we keep in touch I will let u know as I find more vendors Tell me more about ur wedding ladies. I am considering a nature theme. We r big on camping and hiking and that type of thing and we want our wedding to elegantly reflect that.

    I just went to look at the venue this past weekend and fell in love with the place.
    Does anyone mind informing me on the package as I am trying to compare prices.

    Thanks So Much!

    Flowers by Jack is an incredible choice for flowers...they have done so many of my friends weddings. I looked at Crest Hollow when I originally planned on getting married on Long Island, but then chose Maine do to the fact my family is partially from there and I have an ill relative. I was so close to booking Crest Hollow. Oh well...Here are some vendors you should all look into if you have not booked yet...wanted to mention a vendor who is not a preffered vendor at Crest Hollow but shoots there often is www.alexissteinphoto.comalso look at www.loveandyouvideo.com and www.vimeo.com/ajfilms

    If you speak with ASP I am sure they will try to work with your budget. I had a similar thing happen with me when I was first looking into venues on Long Island and then I moved my wedding to Maine. I understand your concerns but usually a house vendor will have to pay the venue you are using so not all the money is going to your photographer. Just saying.

    hey...I'm booked for the same room for july 2012...how do you know their preferred vendors are cheaper? what I understand is that they have to give a kick back to CHCC, so I dk how they charge less...did you compare? i havent looked at any of their vendors yet, waiting to ck out the upcoming showcase
  • edited December 2011
    Usually as a "thank you" they will throw in something or give you a good deal. When we booked with Patken they gave us the a deal they gave during an expo at CHCC and threw in a few extras as well they do try to work with you. But still best to shop around
