It doesn’t get much cheaper than this for a good photographer. It’s a husband and wife team so you usually get one or the other with an assistant for the day. It is one flat cheap rate for their very very comprehensive package. You get unlimited time, two photographers, an engagement session, one extra session to use for like anniversary, I think like 200$ print credit and album credit with several album types to choose from. Not the fastest turn around time after the wedding but about average.

Definitely a recommend this place. Some great dresses, good prices, nice people. This is a little place tucked away but they have some real gems. Their staff is very helpful and their prices are good. Not the largest selection of bridesmaid dresses but a good selection. And there’s just some beautiful wedding gowns that I didn’t see anywhere else. And they give a discount if you get bridal gown and bridesmaid dresses there.

Sarah Trotter, the main planner, is wonderful! She helped with everything so much. She was there at every meeting; setting up meetings, helping creatively, and the day of was doing everything so that I could be relaxed. She’s very fun and easy to get a long with as well. I also think her prices were quite good comparatively.

Now I must say their prices are on the high end but definitely worth it. They are very professional, talented photographers. The photo editing was very nice. The packages are totally customizable with lots of add-ons like engagement photos, parent albums, and even vacation vouchers for the honeymoon. The album that Judd designs is just beautiful and was definitely a selling point. There’s also several people on staff so if you want a cheaper option than the main photographer, Judd, you can, or if you like someone’s work better than another’s there’s options. Also has a very fast turn around time after the wedding.

They were reasonably priced and had a decent selection. Found a tux we liked a lot. Staff was pretty helpful.

We just went through this chain store to get the engagement and wedding rings. I love their selection (which I think is quite unique); the staff was always helpful and friendly. Their prices didn’t seem too high. Nothing bad to say about them.

This is the salon I have been going to for years. It’s small nothing fancy, located in Maplewood. However, my whole family and I have gone there for color, cuts, and formal up-dos for a long time and have never been disappointed. Not too expensive, usually between 50-100$ for a formal hair do.

She was incredibly well priced with a beautiful selection. I’m not super creative when it comes to flowers and she designed something very nice.

They did a very nice job at the wedding, playing appropriate music. DJ was nice and polite, not over the top. My only complaint is their price changes drastically depending on the date, maybe that’s common, but from knowing several who’ve used them expect to pay about 500$ extra for a summer wedding vs a spring wedding.

They had a reasonable price and good DJ. They have a lot of music on their website so you can make playlists or do not playlists beforehand. Also they have many DJs on staff so if yours gets sick or something happens then there’s always a backup. Also they have you fill out a long profile so they can match you to the most compatible DJ.
