lucy888's reviews

We had booked Cheesey Photobooths through Ryan from Best Wishes Wedding Video. This was the BEST part of our wedding reception. All our guests raved about the service. We received unlimited double prints of the photobooth pictures (one we kept in an album and the other copy went to our guests). I don't think we had any technical problems..but there were two onsite technicians that were there to take care of any problems. The photobooth exterior and backdrop is customizable..and we could customize the event banner on the prints. They included free delivery of the photobooth AND a CD of all the high resolution images.. (because there were guests who two BOTH copies home..and the CD helped me to make additional prints if needed for my album).

If I had another event, I would DEFINITELY use this company again.

I based my decision to use Ryan from the two reviews below. He was affordable and a nice guy. He met up with us wherever we wanted. He showed us his past weddings and his packages. We weren't initially going to get a videographer..but since he had an affordable package..we went ahead and got him. There are things that you miss during your wedding..that sometimes a photographer misses.

We opted for a one-man camera which was a BAD decision. If you decide to go with Ryan..ask for a two-man. Because when we saw our unedited video..we were HORRIFIED. He videotaped things that were awkward. During the wedding ceremony, he placed the camera facing the wall (so he could set up his tripod)..so while the ceremony was going on.. you can hear the ceremony but you're watching a wall for a good five minutes. Probably if we had gotten a two person camera-man..this could have been avoided.

During the reception, it was no better. During MY bridal speech.. I was saying thanks to our parents and to our guests... the video got cut out.. so you couldn't hear the first few minutes of my speech.

The strange thing is that we were VERY happy with the photobooth that he provided. That was a BIG plus to his package.. but we had booked him based on the video part..and we weren't happy at all with the product.

For my wedding, I'm having my friend create our wedding invites. Since our wedding has the most confusing location and I couldn't do-it-myself... I found:

Amanda is a very professional person. She can work around the date that you need your project done.. she'll let you know her workload. I gave her an original date of july 1st... but since i was anxious to get my wedding invites completed... I asked her to move it up... and she was able to get it done in less than a week.

Even though our map is still a work in progress.. the first draft looks great!!

I have to definitely agree. Zenia is an absolute goldmine. I had her do our engagement pictures too... and they came out so beautiful. She's affordable and very professional. I wish i could use her for my wedding too but she's booked on our date! :(

My fiance and I had the WORST experience with this travel agent:

George Striker
Carlson Wagonlit/Concord World Travel
george@cwtla.com

We came trying to get ideas and pricing for our honeymoon. Gave him our budget and what we wanted to see. It took him forever to get back to us with our estimate. Once we had our estimate...it was over our budget..so we asked him to help skim it down to where we felt we were comfortable. A month later and still no response from him.

DO NOT USE HIM. He is so useless!!

I have short hair and rarely wear make-up..so I wasn't sure what to do for my engagement ceremony...until I met Silva and Suzie. They did both for my engagement ceremony and pictures. The hair lasted from 9am to 1am. The make-up lasted from 9am to 9pm (it probably would have lasted longer if i didn't wash my face). They were very accomodating to open up their salon early and everything took an hour. So fast and efficient and I looked great. I don't know if they'll come to your location.. but I didn't ask.

Although I'm not using Lucy's Bridal. It IS a very good place. Mandy was helpful. The prices were great. I just liked another dress down the street at another bridal shop.
