The tuxes looked great (fit well) and the service was great as well. We were very impressed. Our wedding was in NW Wisconsin, so we had little options locally. The only shop in town had measured my now-husband and his friends poorly on numerous occasions for weddings. So we decided to go 45 min away and do Men's Warehouse. Perfect choice!

We purchased our favor boxes from Michael's. Our colors were black and white with sage green as an accent. We purchased 300 little boxes (150 black and 150 white). They were considerably less than other vendors that I looked at. They looked nice too (of course!). Brides brand.

And of course... we used coupons to get an even better deal.

They did a great job on my hair and with the rest of the bridal party. I was very impressed with the work!

They were very accomodating. The flowers turned out beautiful.

I got my dress at David's - I really loved it. We actually found our bridesmaid's dresses and flower girl dresses there too. The bridesmaids dresses were tea length and white with black flowers. Very cute and fun!! They were very different, but looked great and everyone one at the wedding was talking about them.

Rock 'N Roll To Go was our vendor for our DJ and limo. They were very professional and accomodating. The DJ was great. He was attentive to our requests and to our guests.

Famous Daves out of Eau Claire, Wis.

We catered from Famous Daves since our group was large (wedding party and their families). They were on time, set everything up and the food tasted great. It was a great way to relax before the big day. We wouldn't have had it any different!

Jan did a fabulous job on our wedding cake. It looked great, just as we planned. It tasted great (and I'm not a cake person); it was very moist. I can't believe we fed 300+ at the price we paid (plus a groom's cake)! She was well worth it!

It's funny that two of my co-workers (in the Cities) also used her for their wedding and great things to say as well!

I purchased my invitations from Target -- Garnter Studio brand (based in Stillwater, Minn., too). They were cream with a black swirly design on the bottom. We wrote/designed the text and printed them at home. They turned out great. I had lots of complements. In fact many people didn't believe we got them at Target and did them ourselves. The only down side was that my mom and I were running all over to numerous Targets to purchase enough invitations (for 400, boxes were in 50). Most stores only carry one or two boxes. And often times, once they're out they don't restock. If you decide to go this route, be prepared to do a little hunting to get enough invites!

As a sidenote, I have some graphic design experience, so I recreated the black design and carried it through the rest of the wedding. Very nice touch!

Turtleback was great to work with. Their facility and location is very nice. It's a great setting on the golf course. The food was really good and there was a lot of choices to choose from. The staff was very accomodating and professional.
