We had our rehearsal dinner at one of St. Paul's parks. It was cheap ($75 for the whole day) and made for a great low-key atmosphere (we wanted to have all our out-of-town guests which ended up being over 100). The only snag we ran into was not having enough outlets and had to use another site a few feet down as well.

The flowers were beautiful and were within our price limit. She was very helpful in giving ideas and made sure the flowers would match to my dress. The bad part is that she did not deliver, we had to have someone scheduled to pick up the flowers.

This was a fun atmosphere for us girls because they have free massages while we waited and had tea for us to drink. The bad part is you cannot really know who will be doing your hair so it must be a simple style, as you can't do a practice. They also ended up taking longer than expected and we were a little late to the church for getting ready.

We had to wait a very long time while picking up tuxes as well dropping them off. We also had a few glitches with sizes but they were able to fix them before our wedding.

She was a great photographer. We ended up only having a few hours time span to work with (due to her schedule and our budget) but she squeezed us in and made sure we were getting the shots we wanted. Her style is very modern and she did a great job in the pictures!

They had a great selection of food here. We chose to have a buffet and the food was really great. They have a wide variety of meal styles or buffets to choose from.

We had our reception here. It's a nice place with newer decor. They were very helpful with the decorating (had items we could rent if chosen) and were flexible as well.

This is a great website I found to buy little boy's suits and tuxes. We bought our little ring bearer's tuxes on here for only $35 a piece. This way they can keep them for other special occasions and they don't have to pay $75 to rent them from the tux shops. They have a wide variety of styles and sizes.

This is a huge and beautiful church! It is very expensive to book it here though ($1500 plus a $250 security deposit).

David's Bridal has a great selection of dresses. The thing that was most helpful to me was being able to buy off-the-rack as my husband and I decided to do a short engagement (four months). Most other dress shops said I was cutting it too close to order my size.
