    I hate saying checks klasdfjlasdjf so I will say it's a great feeling getting stuff done... Little by little everything starts coming together, it's an amazing feeling/feeling of relief.  Once you order that dress you'll be over the moon.

    Hi ladies! I left work early today just so I could respond to the message board since I can't do it from my phone! Lol jkjk I had a Dr. appt! Hehe anyway you want details? get ready it's gonna be long but you asked for it so here I goooo:

    Venue: Richfield Regency, booked in March. I met with Trish..she has high energy with a big personality..shes a bit nutty lol, but I liked her! I think you either like her or you dont..depends on your personality..my FI & I are very down to earth, talkative & always cracking jokes with ppl so she worked for us..if you're a bit more reserved I recommend meeting with someone else lol..We booked the bigger room..it's definitely prettier in person than online & I don't kno why they dont have pics of the cocktail room that goes with it online cuz it's nice & has a nyc lounge type of vibe going on, but what I loved most is that they can customize the menu to ethnic foods & I'm Hispanic so I would love a bit of my comfort foods there

    Photographers: Garden State Photo Studio...amazing work! I've always liked their work then coincidentally my FI's cousin used them for his wedding recently & once I saw those pics, I just knew they were the ones for me lol..his cousin loved them & I did too when I met with them & although I haven't taken pics with them yet, they've listened to my request & are so nice & cooperative

    Video: Blue Moon Video Productions...booked them a while back like March..I met with Eddie he was nice, but I haven't interacted with him again...I fell in love with the package that uses cameras used in movies (35MM DSLR or something like that)..& the dvd has a cool menu screen like a movie where you have scene selections & bonus features etc. ohh & we're getting blue ray & the dvd box looks like a real movie with a barcode & all but with your pic lol..this option is a bit pricier but their standard definition was really good quality as well & of course HD is an option too

    DJ: Majestic Events but they just changed their name to Diverse Events, same owner just diff name..they were recommended by someone from my venue & also they did my friend's friends wedding & that couple raved about them so we saw a video of my friend's friends wedding & we thought they were great..my Fi & I are both Hispanic but we want a mix of Spanish & American music & since my friend's friends are a mixed couple (one Hispanic one Caucasian) their video was a perfect example of what we wanted & my FI is extremely picky because he's a DJ himself & he was impressed (which doesn't happen often) lol

    Limo: Danaro's Limo, nice limos & he had the cheapest prices for the limos we wanted but unfortunately he just boosted his prices =(, we booked just in the nick of time....for all of you who haven't booked limos yet cuz you think it's too soon do it now! They get booked fast & my friend is getting married march 2013 & she already started booking things & a limo co. told her book soon because limos will just keep going up...now I dont kno if he just told her that so she could book now (which she didn't ) but I kind of believe it bcuz nothing gets cheaper & gas is more outrageous each day!

    Flowers: AW Flowers..met with the owner Adam he was great & sooo affordable!! He really works with your budget! you can honestly tell him how much you want to spend even if you think it's low & it's not possible, he makes it happen! The shop itself is not attractive & outdated, but who cares as long as the flowers are pretty lol & since he doesn't make his shop look fancy this probably helps him keep costs low...haven't had my mock up yet because I want to wait but I've seen pics here of his work & fellow knotties love his work =)

    Bridal shop: I plan on going to Bijou Bridal in Paramus because my FI knows the owner & she keeps telling him tell your FI to come, so I'll check it out, I've read good things here about it & I was at the nail salon one day talking to my sis & a random girl politely jumped into our convo lol & she said she drives by all the time & the dresses are absolutely gorgeous that I should go..so we shall see! I plan on going at the end of the month so I'll keep you posted =)

    So there you have it! That was a mouthful! Or shall I say handful? My fingers are outta breath! Lol!!! Sealed
