Based out of Chicago. They have great prices. I got my vellum envelopes there

I took my toasting flutes here to get them engraved (they use sandblasting). I used to work here long time ago, so I knew this was an option. Turned out great and very personalized.

This was the first time I did not go to the flower mart in downtown LA. We went here because my MIL has a wholesale license so we got the discount. We were also able to order what we wanted in advanced to ensure we got the flowers and quantity wanted. They were great. We even got to borrow their buckets to take home to put water for the flowers and greens.

I had Michelle. We did our trial and she was great. Funny and easy to get along with. She showed up on time at our hotel the day of and she ate breakfast with the girls. I''ve used them before for my MOH''s wedding and i was also happy.

Our DJ was Mike Carroll (he’s a director! I’m mentioning that cuz I know he’s been looking for my posting!) Oh my gosh, these guys ROCK! INCREDIBLE job. I saw sooo many postings (especially from the OC Board) on these guys that booking them was the least of my worries. When I saw them at the bridal show at LCCC, I knew we had to at least look into what they could offer. They are pricey, very pricey, but it was sooo worth it. We had lighting, bubbles, and a great selection of music. They were able to get 2 families (Bolivians and Filipinos and all our mixed-in-between friends) on the dance floor all night. Mike took care of us – made sure things were okay, consulted us if they could play a song from the “Don’t List” cuz someone asked for it. They kept the reception flowing so smoothly. I honestly don’t remember any down time when you’re just sitting there wondering, “okay, what’s going on now?” or “what’s next?”. I highly recommend them!! Mike was so cool and funny and easy to get along with as well. Awesome job!

Beth was such a great person to work with as well. She too was the first we saw and booked her after meeting with others. Her demos had this cool intro that none of the others did or were able to do. Her editing qualities were great and I paid a lot of attention to angles taken, switching between black and white to sepia to color, fade in and fade outs, and any other filtering effects. The day of the wedding she was great to work with, along with Bill, her assistant whom we also booked. Many times, I really didn’t notice them in the way. Talk about unobtrusive. The video was GORGEOUS! we loved it. she really captured the day so well. we were more than pleased with her work and with how easy it was to work with her.

This guy was the first out of 10 photographers we looked at and I always remembered his portfolio. His website just sold his work. (I’m big on a wonderfully designed web site.) Beautiful eye and sense of capturing photos. I’m biased – he went to Art Center College of Design. He was soooo nice and easy going right from the start. He always made time for me to answer questions and towards the end, he even helped me develop our timeline from what time the makeup/hairstylist should get to our hotel, what time to leave, etc… we have really enjoyed working with Dana. He was so easy to work with the day of the wedding. I didn’t even notice him most of the time. We even had his assistant, Frank. We couldn’t have anything but wonderful things to say.

I love this bakery! They were one of the preferred vendors through Los Coyotes Country Club, but I have used them in the past for my mom’s wedding anniversary. EXCELLENT cake! So light and yummy. They copied a design I brought to them and the did it. Great service, nice people when you go for the tasting (and they serve you full slices, not little squirts of icing.) Not too sweet, just right.

The girls got their Jim Hjelm dresses from Netbride. Excellent service, great on returning phone calls. It was so nice to see how much we saved. They even came early. TIP: Ship it to your work (if you can do that) to ensure that someone is there to sign off for the packages.

I worked with Eddie from start to finish and he was just wonderful. First of all, their prices were great! I quoted other places and they were unbeatable! I had emailed the photo to Eddie and they copied it exactly the way I wanted it. He always returned my calls, answered my questions, faxed me info, etc… very great. I was so happy when I saw it.
