I just received some teaser pics from Edward. DH and I are very much pleased. He did an awesome job. We're even more excited to see the rest of the photos. He was very easy to work with from the beginning. He is very responsive with all my questions. He was prompt on my wedding day and just simply awesome to work it.

We highly recommend him!!!

We ordered our wedding cake from Ontario Bakery in Ontario, CA. They did an amazing job copying the design I asked them to copy. I have to say the final work came out better than the picture. The taste is SUPER delicious too. All of our guests absolutely love the cake!!! They were all raving about it.

DJ Fredd and DJ Nicole are very easy to work with and have very good communication. They were very helpful on the day off and made sure DH and I were doing good. They also follow through our timeline and requests. All the songs they played fit nicely to our event.

We highly recommend them.

Natalie is a very talented artist. I absolutely love my hair and make-up for my wedding day. It's even better than the rehearsal...and my mom just looked so elegant. She also worked on my BM and MOH hair and make-up and everyone just look marvelous. Also, none of us had to do touch up. Our hair and make-up lasted all day long!!!

I highly recommend her!!!

I bought my dress, BMs dresses and MOB at 2000 dreams. Their price are very reasonable compared to the other stores in the area. I’m fortunate that I didn’t experience any of their sale tactic…like mentioned by other brides. It was always a pleasant visit. Also, the alterations fee are included with the package. It was cap on a certain price (so it might be less but not more than the cap price) so IMO it was very reasonable.

My younger sister took me here to get my eyebrows done. Karen did a really good job on my eyebrows. She even did a mini-make over. We end up buying some of her make-up line. She also has an awesome assistant named Milo. We planned to see her every month. She's definitely worth every penny!

Nina is making our invitations. FI and I like how she sent us different draft of the invitations. And let us pick which one we liked. She already sent us the mock-up invite and it’s so beautiful. My family just absolutely love her work. Very classic and elegant. The design is a perfect match what FI and I are going for. We can’t wait to see the finish product. We’re also using the main design of the invitation for our table numbers (PIB). I will post an update as soon as we receive the invites.

Franie is helping us plan our May, 2008 wedding. My fiancé and I just absolutely love her. At first FI was very hesitant to hire a coordinator. He was having a hard time to grasp the concept that a stranger will be handling our BIG DAY. But when we met with Franie we just know she’s the right person to work with. All of my fiance’s reservations is out the window. She listens to all the thing we want and help us make them happen.

I just love working with her since she is just excited I am about the wedding. So it keeps me planning mode. And keeps FI happy too since I don’t have to bother him so much about little details.
With how things right now , we just know my planning will be stress free and FI and I will fully enjoy our big day with Franie around.

We highly recommend her!!!


UPDATE 5-5-2008

Franie was awesome on our wedding day. She took care of everything for us. She made sure the venue looks exactly how I envisioned my wedding and beyond!!! All my vendors absolutely love her. My family and friends kept telling me and DH that she was so amazing and on top of things. She was quick to solved problems and take immediate action. We didn't know what went on till after the wedding when our guests were telling us how awesome she was. She really made sure everyone were taken care of, made sure that everything run smoothly. DH and I didn't have to worry about anything. We completely enjoyed our wedding day. Also, leading to the big day...she made sure DH and I are relax and not stressing out.

We highly recommend her!!!

My fiance and I got my ering from pop gems. I absolutely love it. They have reasonable prices and good quality diamonds. The lady who helped us is so awesome.

We went there just to see what they have and check for different style. They asked us what we are looking for. I told them the size, quality we want. She showed us several loose diamonds within the quality we want and a case of different settings.

It was a very pleasant experience because most places asked customers for their price range and end up showing low quality diamonds.

My fiance and I just fell in love with one of the settings they showed us so we ordered that day. One more good thing about them is they are not pushy. They didn't try to sell us a more expensive diamonds and very honest with their opinions.

It took about a week to get my e-ring done. My friends kept saying that FI got a very good deal. They thought my fiance paid arm and a leg for it and always say it's so brilliant and sparkle a lot.

And we are getting our wedding bands with them too. I'm excited we are going tomorrow.

Jacquelyn did an amazing job on the flowers for my wedding. My bouquet and BMs bouquets, centerpieces and everything else are so lovely. It was sort of warm but the flowers lasted. Vikki, one of her employees is very accommodating and easy to work with.

I highly recommend them for the affordable price and quality work they do.
