This is where i found my La Sposa wedding dress. I found it after 10 minutes! I had been to 7 different boutiques in my area before trying Mon Amie. They have everything! because I purchased my dress on my first consultation, they gave my a certificate for my fiance to recieve a brand new Ralph Lauren tuxedo from any Friar Tux- to keep! I had such anxiety about not finding the "perfect dress" and I cannot believe that I found it at Mon Amie in 10 minutes! The only thing that you might want to think about is if you purchase a dress from there, do NOT get alterations from them! It can sometimes cost almost as much as the dress. Take it to a seamstress you know or a friend can refer you to. I did and I saved a ton of money.

when I was shopping around for a wedding dress, it seemed that everyone I loved was a La Sposa! This is a great Spanish designer, and I almost wish I could get married again so I could buy another!

Since I had such a huge bridal party, we opted for a chain supplier because the girls could go to any of their locations to try a sample and buy the bridesmaid dress. It really worked out well, and the price fit into our budget.

I love my ring! My husband got it from downtown in the jewelry district from this place. Awesome selection, and everything is wholesale. I loved my engagement ring so much, this is also where we went for mine and his wedding bands. I know for sure that if we had went to a chain type jewelry store there is no way we could of found such a diamond- the size, clarity, for the same price.

We had a huge wedding party and Friar Tux seemed like a good choice. The only thing that was not so great was that one of the groomsmen picked up their tuxedo without removing it from the garment bag, and found out the day of the wedding it had suit pants for a 10 year old! Luckily, one of the girls called Friar Tux and demanded they bring the proper size to the hotel. Pull out and check the suit before you leave the store!

We loved Deanne's creativity with the flowers! She was very accomadating, and was able to work within our budget. I loved, loved the centerpieces and my bouquet. My husband who is not that into flowers was AMAZED on the wedding day. Several guests were asking me who we used, because they loved the fresh modern look of our arrangements. Out of all of our vendors, Bella Fiore was by far the most impressive! I refered her to a friend, and I cannot wait to see what she does for his wedding!

My husband and I love Kings Hawaiian Bakery. We really wanted a wedding cake that tasted good~! We chcked out Rossmoor Bakery, which is a big wedding cake vendor in our area, and although the cake was very beautiful, it tasted like crap. We orderd two cakes from Kings, a large three-tier for 150 people, and a small groomsmen seashell-motif cake that my husband had to have. All together including delivery, we spent a little less than $400! The cake was so good, we caught some of the bridal party eating the groomsmen cake. The only thing to keep in mind is that alot of the decorated cakes may not be to your taste... The large cake we had plain, so our florist could decorate it with fresh hydrangeas upon delivery. Love King's Hawaiian!!

My husband and I met with several different DJ's before finding Allen Layton. We were really looking for someone with the capability to control the flow of the wedding, and keep everything and everyone on schedule. As soon as we met with Allen, we knew right away he was the one! He instantly put us at ease- he is incredibly organized and efficient. The wedding went very well, thanks to Allen's well constructed timeline. We love him, and are so grateful that we were able to snag him for our wedding. He has also done my sister's wedding, and now is doing a friends wedding in May through my referral. He is the best!
