OrientalTrading.com has cheap prices. They have a very large variety of stuff for weddings, from plate settings to wedding favors, to bridal party accessories and gifts. It is a little overwhelming with the extent of there collection. We still haven't made our final selections, but they all average around $40 for 110 wedding favors for guests.

I got my beautiful engagement rings from Kay's Jewelers. I am in love with it. We want to buy out wedding bands there, but they are very pricey when it comes to purchasing a custom-made wedding band to fit my square princess cut ring. They suggested we just stick to on already created in the jewelry showcases, which doesn't fit well next to my ring that much. Very helpful staff. Warranty prices are not that bad, considering that they hold a lifetime guarantee, if you stay consistent with your 6 month check-ups.

Though a little pricey for silk centerpiece rentals, I found them to be very reasonable for real flower bouquets, compared to other competitors. Chris is very friendly, and she will sit with you for hours to talk about flowers and your vision for the day. She will be honest with you about what flower combinations flows well and those that don't. She is down to earth, and very laid back.

Thomas and Marcia Ciola. They are very nice, but I found them to be a little old fashioned, which we don't mind all too much. They took a sense in ownership and really gave us a sense that they knew what they are doing. They include a sand ceremony if you want and are very organized. They even send away for your marriage license so you dont have to worry about that before the honeymoon or right when you get back home. Good communication. A good description of them is found on their website.

Visions Media is comprised of a two person main team, one in charge of photography, while the other is in charge of the videography. The 2 sample videos we were shown were out of this world! They include guest interviews, a highlight reel, a video trailer in the beginning set to music, and most of the ceremony. You get 3 copies of the video included in the price. They gave us a packet to fill out stating which specific video clips we want to be included in the video. We are content about our choice! They are professional and are definitely unique and not mainstream.

We were nervous about picking the right photographer, since, to us, this is the most important aspect of our weddng. We met with one of the company owners. Right away, we told her the importance of wedding photography for us. She immediately were sensitive to our feelings about everything and she seemed like she had genuinely cared about our feelings. We spent a total of an hour and a half just looking at there work. She never once made us feel rushed into making a decision that very time and place, just as SO many other vendors are inclined to do. We loved their work, and they were very fairly priced. They have worked at our ceremony/reception site several times before and quoted to be very familiar with the location. They helped us calm our anxiety about wedding photography altogether. They are going to do an amazing job; we already know that!

From the first moment we laid eyes on this invitation we had to have these as out wedding invitations! Silvery shimmering paper along with lighter silver twin hearts; we couldn't go wrong. We worded our own invitations without difficulty. Our wedding colors are eggplant and silver, so while the invitations themselves are silver, we ordered the envelopes to be lined in purple. We just ordered them. We ordered a proof so that we could look over it before they printed all 100 invitations. We are very excited about getting them in the mail so that we can catch the first glimpse of these!

Soundwave Disc Jockey is comprised of a married couple. Les does all the main DJ work, while Wendy works like a coordinator to help the reception introductions go on cue. Their office is located in their home. We went there and we found them to be some of the most pleasant people ever. Very organized and they also gave us a sense of ownership and leadership in the DJ industry. From the first moment, they had sold us. Once you put a deposit down, they give you a reception planner to fill out letting them know what type of songs to be played. To do preliminary research go to their website where there's a sample video of them actually at work... very impressive! We look forward to their wonderful work!

The dresses themselves are beautiful and of high quality, and the eggplant is simply elegant. However, the staff is a little slow and unattentive. Though worlds better than their main competititor (David's Bridal), they were only attentive when you put your money down. We waited 10+ for the lady to help us do measurements for us, while she felt it was more important by putting dresses away. The dress price was reasonable, and if the bride buys her dress there too, each bridesmaid, regardless of how many, got $25 off their dresses. Good bargain!

Mystic Dunes is a gorgeous site for a wedding ceremony and reception. Located just south of Disney World in Kissimmee, FL, it is close enough to everything, yet far enough away from everything in a quiet little world of it's own. You have the option of exchanging wedding vows on their well-known veranda patio outside of the reception hall, or if you find another place on property, the staff will work with you all they can to make it happen for you. My fiance and I chose to pick the driving range in front of some trees. The staff is very friendly and approachable. The food is great; we had our tasting and chose our menu for our reception dinner for 110-120 people. Our guests will be satisfied with our decisions! Communication couldn't be any better. I have called the banquet rep, Rachel, several times various days and she was patient with me and make sure any and all of my questions were answered and all my concerns were addressed. My fiance and I are very content with our location of choice for our Wedding Day! Absolutely no problems as of yet!
