Wedding day transportation was my nightmare! I had more contact with Unique Limousine, Inc. then the majority of my other wedding vendors, because I hired them to transport multiple members of my wedding party to several places. Although the order was complicated, I provided a timeline & all the information and directions necessary to ensure smooth, timely transportation with minimal confusion for any driver. I paid for the services in full up front; I had contracts, confirmations, a ridiculous trail of correspondence with this vendor …and every reason to believe that they were going to provide me and my bridal party with transportation service on my wedding day. They didn’t. They never even scheduled me, even though I had written confirmation from them regarding all the details of the service I paid for IN FULL. On my wedding day, I realized they were late and I called their office to see if they were aware of any delays. They had no idea who I was, or what I was talking about and informed me that I wasn’t even on the schedule (although, they could see that I had paid for service!) and there were no available drivers. When I asked what I should do (as I still needed transportation to my wedding!?) they simply told me they didn’t know, and they were sorry they couldn’t help! The only good thing I have to say about this vendor is that they quickly refunded ALL of my money the next business day without argument.

Coleman Video is a husband and wife team who offers outstanding video/photo montage services at a great price. Very personable and professional, Coleman video worked with us every step of the way to create the perfect “living memory” with our wedding video keepsake. They shoot and edit all of their own videos and deliver a beautifully prepared final product. No matter what your video needs are, Colman video will work with you to create a package that meets your needs and accommodates your budget. We were so pleased with our wedding DVD and the working relationship we formed with Coleman Video, that we contracted them again a year later to handle another special occasion video for us. I would absolutely recommend Coleman Video to anyone in need of a videographer for any occasion!

In business since 1984, Jim Morrow has photographed everything from crime scenes to 2000+ weddings. He really knows how to create a beautiful shot and could not have been more pleasant to work with! With all of his experience we were able to breeze through all of our crazy wedding photos without any trouble and get to the party. He has the system down and doesn’t miss a shot! Our wedding photos are GOREGOUS, and there are hundreds of them. The best part about Jim is that he was able to accommodate our budget and gave us ALL of our photos (and released copyright) on 2 sets of Hi-Res CDs so that we were free to make prints where ever we chose. This saved us money and the hassle of having to choose only a fraction of our photos. Many photographers refuse to do this because they make all their money selling you and your family prints, and charge dearly for them. Jim photographed our entire wedding day at a great price and we had all the pictures in our possession ONE week after the wedding. He does offer a variety of packages to accommodate differing budgets and wishes, and he will gladly prepare an album for you. I would definitely recommend meeting with Jim before booking another photographer for your wedding!

I loved the tuxedos we chose from this vendor! They had a nice selection from classic to trendy and my husband found exactly what he was looking for, including accessories. My only complaint about this place was the one sales rep/part owner –what ever he was. He was consistently obnoxious. At one point we had to go to get additional measurements on a few of our guys and this man was on is cell phone with some woman/girlfriend, while bragging to our guys about the kind of party animal he was the night before (all the while attempting to “assist us”) –he wreaked of alcohol and cigarettes, and his appearance was a disaster. His “white” shirt was noticeably stained and dingy, he had some sort of half-tux outfit on, and it looked like he may have slept in it the night before (or, not, due to his apparent wild night adventures?). He was a very fast talker who made it sound like he was not only quite the “ladies man” but also the king of all tuxedo style. His appearance and demeanor were terribly unprofessional! We were not impressed with this man –but if you can get around him, the rest of our experience with this vendor –service, product and staff-wise was good.

Their jewels are beautiful and I couldn’t be more pleased with our wedding jewelry selection. We were able to get a great deal on our wedding bands as we took advantage of one of their large sales. The customer service is a little touch and go. Some of the sales reps are very pleasant, some aren’t so personable. They also don’t handle any repairs or maintenance on site, and giving your rings away for a week at a time and having to pick everything up after 6:00 PM isn’t always convenient.

Absolutely beautiful! Romantic, Victorian Charm!! The Inn Keeper at the Villa Serendip could not have been more lovely! We chose the Ultimate Get Away package in Cupid’s Retreat Jacuzzi Suite. Everything was taken care of for us from our romantic picnic lunches to our limo chauffeured wine tours. We received VIP treatment at this Inn, from 5 course meals at night to romantic candle lit breakfasts served in our room each morning –and any little thing we could imagine in between. It was the perfect honeymoon get away at a very reasonable price!

The girls from Out of The Box went WAY over and above my expectations! They came to the house bright and early prepared to make 6 girls beautiful for my wedding day, and they succeeded! My bridal updo took some extra work as I wanted to put colored extensions in my hair to match my wedding dress for a unique, coordinated and classy look. I was VERY pleased with the outcome! My extensions were dyed in advance of my wedding to ensure the perfect match, and then they were beautifully incorporated into my updo resulting in the coordinated, classy look I wanted. All of my girls were absolutely gorgeous! I LOVE this salon!!

Newly renovated and beautifully decorated & landscaped, this B&B comfortably accommodated my out of town family members conveniently right across the street from my wedding reception. It was the absolute perfect set up. I cannot say enough about the Country Barn and everything they offered my wedding and wedding guests. It is the perfect setting for a Lancaster wedding!! The convenient location of this B&B not only came in handy for my out of town family members, but we were able to use the grounds for the most beautiful natural backdrop for our wedding photographs. Absolutely incredible!!

Jay was a pleasure to work with! We were on a very strict budget, but really wanted an array of beautiful, fresh flowers. Jay met and spoke with me several times before the wedding and was able to accommodate my wishes, add a creative flare to my ideas and honor my budget. My flowers, my honored guest flowers and my centerpieces were absolutely gorgeous!! The arrangements he prepared were fresh, unique and beautifully blended. Jay certainly has a passion for what he does and I would absolutely recommend him!!

This place has all of your wedding day favor and stationary needs! I took advantage of their free samples while deciding on colors, paper quality and print styles. They have an incredible selection of products, many personalization options, great customer service and very affordable prices. I ordered everything from my favors to my Thank You cards through them, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. I would definitely recommend them!
