Justice Baran was a pleasure to work with. He has many different ceremonies to choose from if you don't have a clue where to begin and he incorporates whatever wishes you have, from readings and a wine drinking ceremony to flowers handed to the mothers. He speaks clearly, attired professionally and gives an emotional meaning in the words of your ceremony. Definitely highly recommended!

Prince Pizza was the perfect place for my rehearsal dinner. An old family favorite where many a birthday party took place, found us in the small, cozy Tower grill room. I had a simple buffet and they made the table look beautiful with gleaming chafing dishes and fall flowers. The tables were beautifully set with linen napkins and sparkling water glasses. The server Kiersten, was professionally mannered and atttired, taking care of my guests every needs. I would highly recommend prince to the bridal couple on a budget. Steve Castraberti, the owner and Steve Markarian, General manager were a pleasure to work with in creating the perfect menu items for my dinner.

What can I say...how can you go bad with chocolate as a favor. I was not disappointed with Truffle Trolley. They have so many different flavors to choose from and that was the only trouble I had. The Irish Cream and Raspberry truffles were my favorite. They arrived in beautiful boxes with pretty tags and ribbons. They were kept cool by the dry ice that accompanied them and were perfect the day of the wedding. Inexpensive but the taste says otherwise!

Because of their low prices and large selection David's Bridal is the place to go for a bride on a budget. The woman who helped me was fantastic although I have since forgotten her name and would love to give her the kudos she deserves. She was patient as I made my way through dozens of dresses, finding the perfect veil style to match each dress so I would get the full effect. The only flaw I can find in David's is that although they find all the accessories to go with the dress, unless you are right on top of them repeatedly telling them that you do not want to buy anything other than the dress, they will bring it all up front and before you know it you've purchased more than you wanted. This happened to me and I ended up with a veil and crystal hair piece that I didn't want. I was on such a high from finally finding the perfect dress that when I finally made it up front after changing, they had already rung everything in and were waiting for payment....my fault that I didn't realize that the total price was more than the price on the dress.. I signed the sales receipt and when we got home found the items in the bag and tried to return them but were denied as all sales are final.

Reba Saldanha is an unbelievably talented photographer! The uniques angles and unusual locations prove to be the best photos ever. Reba worked with me prior to the wedding asking all sorts of questions and put the answers to work at the ceremony and reception. She arrived early, stayed late and definitley gave us more than we could ever had paid for. I wanted more of a documentation of the day, photojournalist style and less stuffy, formal pictures other than the absoulutely required ones that grandmother needed to have. She was charming with our guest, professionally attired and a delightly unobtrusive presence. Most of the time we never knew she was there. The pictures are superb and my husband and I still enjoy looking through them. Well worth the cost...a talented young woman on her way up!

I was looking for a certain invitation and didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on them so I cruised websites of the lesser known invitation makers and sent out inquirys. Liz was the first to respond and had the patience to make several different types of invitations according to my description of what I was looking for. She is brand new, just starting out in the business but her work is impeccable. All my invitees commented on my unique invites and will definatley use her again when we have birth announcements or the like to order. You can actually see my invitations on her website...best buy for your money if you aren't looking for the "traditional" invitation.

Warren and Debbie are a fantastic team that kept my reception hopping even as a firetruck and ambulance arrived to take my father to the hospital. What could have been a disaster and a quick end to an otherwise perfect day was quickly turned around as they kept everyone entertained and made sure that the dance floor stayed packed. They have an amazing library and practically guarantee that they have the song you are looking for in their collection. They are quick to reply to an inquiry or any last minute emails and kept this frantic bride from freaking out over the smallest details. You won't find a better DJ for your money!!

The cakes are so very yummy!! A little on the expensive side but will work with you and your budget. The best part, that really sold me, was that they don't believe in freezing a cake to eat on your 1st wedding anniversary...better yet, they send you a brand new small cake of your choice!! Looking forward to eating this sweet treat with my honey in a few months...especially the Opera cake!!!!!!

I described the colors I was having in my wedding and a basic overview of what I was looking for and I was amazed the morning of my wedding when the flowers were delivered (right on time) They exceeded my expectations!! The arrangements were perfect, the flowers were fresh and were loved by all!! I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone living on the Northshore/Boston.

This is a uniquely beautiful spot to exchange your vows. Whether you are married inside on the gorgeous curving stairway or outside (as I was) under the Pergola, your guests will feel as if they stepped back in time and were attending a garden party at some fantastic mansion. The grounds are immaculate, the service before during and after was amazing...they kept everything flowing in a nice, smooth manner. Heather King is a doll to work with. She has fantastic ideas and foresight into what might be needed on that day. I got rave reviews from all my guests saying that they'd never attended a better wedding at a more beautiful location. The only drawback is you must have an open bar, a cash bar is not allowed on the grounds...my fiance and I were already planning on an open bar so this didn't impact us at all, besides...the price was right and the service was great!!
