I loved Bon Appetite in fact we would have had our reception there had the room been big enough. There food was amazing and the service was wonderful. I had a great time at my rehearsal dinner and definately plan on going back to Bon Appetite in the future. I would definately recommend this resturant.

I purchased my invitations from Paper Players which is located in Downtown Dunedin. They were wonderful. They took care of my order quickly and were decently priced. They even made my changes go so incredibly smooth. In fact my invivations came in earlier than expected. I will definately use paper players for the rest of my invitations needs in the future as they do all sorts of invitations and gretting cards in addition to wedding invitations. I would definately reccommend Paper Players to people in the Clearwater/Dunedin area.

Rob Vollmar from Grant Hemond and Associates was our DJ for our wedding reception. He was wonderful! He had all of our guests up and on the dance floor the entire night, even the ones that don't usually get up and dance. Rob new how to read the crowd. My husband was worried that he wouldnt' really know the hispanic music as well since he was not hispanic however my husband was very impressed. His latin family loved it. I have had so many compliments on our dj and that it was the best party they had been to in awhile. The one thing I really loved about Rob was that to get the crowd going he played a song especially for my groom that funny enough was a song constantly played in his childhood as a joke. I loved Rob and will definately reccommend Rob Vollmar and Grant Hemond Associates if your looking for a great DJ for your event.

I used Chef Nelson Cake Studio in Dunedin for my wedding cake and it was the best decision ever! Chef Nelson's cakes are amazing and just melt right in your mouth. I had a 4 tierd wedding cake with a different filling in each tier and it was only $550.00 which included taxes and delivery. Also Chef Nelson will tell you and your husband (or wife) to enjoy the top layer that night instead of saving it for the first anniversary since the cake never tastes the same a year later, instead on your first anniversary he will make you a new cake of your choice for free! I loved Chef Nelson and I will use him again anytime I need a nice cake! I will definately reccomend him to anyone I know or meet that is getting married in this area.

I had my reception at Safety Harbor Resort and Spa with over 160 guests in attendance. The planning went smoothly however the day of did not go as smooth as hoped. If I were to do my wedding over I definately would not pick the Safety Harbor Resort and Spa. They messed up my seating chart, they brought a vietnesse display that was an extra $4,000.00 out an hour and half earlier than they were supposed to. The coffie bar that was included in the $4,000.00 was all cold coffee and when the wait staff was told the coffee was cold they never changed it. The vietnesse display was not what they made it out to be when my husband and I were deciding whether or not to get it. I paid extra for a cake that had 4 different fillings and discussed in our planning process (and rediscussed in the last meeting two days before the wedding) was how the waiters were to handle distributing the cake to guests. It was decided that the wait staff would have a couple pieces of each filling and ask guests what they wanted since some were severly allergic to fruit (which two of the fillings were). Instead they gave people filling based on where they were sitting and when one of the guests asked for a different filling becuase they were severly allergic the wait staff told them this is what they get since this is the part of the room they were sitting in. So needless to say that guest did not get a piece of wedding cake. Then to top it off the wait staff didn't even serve myself or my new husband any of our cake! I was very upset by this since I had been looking forward to a slice of me wedding cake all year long! ALso we told the spa under no certian terms are they to set up additional tables if univited guests were to show up. Well needless to say we had about 7 extra people show up univeted and not only did the spa set up a table but they fed them to. So the next day my husband and I were leaving the resort and the coordinator at the spa told me that we owed the spa an additional $440 due to 7 extra people that showed up and they fed, after we told them not to do that.
The spa is beautiful however I do not feel that there service warranted what I was charged for my reception. I would not reccomend this site.

I hired Vicki Goonen as my day of planner and I would do it agin in a heart beat. She was great! Eventhough I only hired her for the day of she was an enormeous help during the last couple days before my wedding. She made sure all of my bridesmaid were on time and ready in fact we were all ready and waiting around for the photographer! She made my day very stress free and relaxing (well as relaxing as it could be). Even though there were a few bumps in the road she smoothed everything out and made sure there weren't any major problems. I would reccommend Beach Angels to any bride I meet. Vicki is wonderful and truely loves what she does. She knew what I needed or wanted before I said anything. If you are looking for a coordinator or simply a day of coordinator pick Beach Angels you will not regret it!
