Melissa is the owner of Camera Bliss and she is amazing. They have an editorial twist that make them different but still beautiful. My photos were beatiful and everything I wanted. She has a gift!

My niece got a great flower-girl dress at Dillard's for a good price. They had a good selection so it worked out well.

We scored a deal on invitations when they were half off. They were beatiful and easy to print on our own. Everyone thought they were professionally printed, so we think we got a good value for the money.

I went to Sephora to try different makeup that would work for my big day. It was okay but it's hard to be a bride-to-be in such a busy store. I wish they had a place just for wedding make up that was away from the bustle of the store. It was also hard for them to work with the colors of my dress because I couldn't bring it in (nor would I want to in the middle of the store.) They are a great store otheriwse, but just not a good option for wedding makeup planning.

We bought my husband's suit from K&G so he could have something to wear as a future suit. It was a great strategy because we got a beatuiful suit for $100, a tuxedo shirt for $20 and the perfect dress tie for $20. Now he has a great black suit he can wear for any occasion.

There is nothing like being in NY for a honeymoon, especially when you can stay at the Ritz Carlton and get a view of the Statue of Liberty from your hotel room. We charmed our way into getting an upgraded room because it was our honeymoon. They helped to make our special time extra special.

This local shop does a great job on wedding dresses and they are a great value. He knew what was worth altering and what wasn't - a fair deal. They also didn't need much time, which was a nice bonus.

It was an AMAZING cake and exactly what I wanted, and it was cheaper than the grocery store. I wish the delivery charge was better but I understand ($40). Everyone raved about the cake so it was money well spent.

Our dinner was not in the private room, but was a reserved table off on it's own within the restaurant. It was a perfect arrangement because our dinner was small. The best part was the outside patio for after dinner. There was dancing inside the bar area and a tables to relax at outside. It was a GREAT night and a good location for people visiting out of town who want to see Jacksonvill's beautiful downtown on the water.

I couldn't have picked a better location - it's an old mansion on the river. Everyone was great, the only down side was the bride room - it needs serious work. But if you plan right you can make it work. Everything else was great...definitely a good value and a special place for your special day.
