We chose Target for our thank you cards. They had a great selection. They were a little bit expensive for not coming from a specialty store. I thought the cards were beautiful and not too over the top. We also picked out our gifts for the flower girls and ring bearer while in the store. We chose to get them their favorite toys and picture of them dressed in their cute dresses and tux.

Michael's is where we chose to get materials for the groom's cake. The groomsmen wanted to make the cake personal so they bought the icing and accessories so they could make the cake how they wanted. They had a red velvet cake and colored icing to make a Miami dolphin cake. It was amazing and I was so surprised they were able to do it. Michael's also carried more items for table decorations such as bridal candies and mints along with baggies and ribbon for holding the candies. Michael's was a great store and they had many things to make my wedding perfect.

Our wedding was small. We had 100 people attend not including bridal party. It was easy to go to Walmart and pick out invitations and table decorations. Everything was reasonably priced and even if one store ran out the other stores near by carried the same product. I only wish there was more of a bridal selection to choose from. The invitations were beautiful and we added ribbon to give them a personal touch. The store also carried votive fillers and candles for guests to take home with them. My only complaint is that there wasn't more of a selection.

I was so nervous about choosing my cake. I have been to so many weddings where the cakes were beautiful but they didn't taste as great as they looked. I went to Publix with a specific idea in my head. They didn't have anything that looked like my idea, but they helped me draw out my idea and they showed me what they could do with my design and also adding ribbons and flowers to the cake as well. I also got to choose the cake flavors that I wanted. I chose a butter cream frosting and vanilla cake. I also had another small cake made with a raspberry fillings in the vanilla cake. they were both amazing. We got many compliments on how moist and creamy the cake tasted.

The staff at David's Bridal were so helpful. I started getting my dress about 6 months before the wedding and they worked very hard to make sure the dress would still fit my bridesmaids in August. I also came into the store a couple of times without an appointment and they were so willing to answer my questions even though there were other people there with an appointment ahead of me. I think they are great and all of my bridesmaids loved their dress and definitely want to shop there when they get married.
