Macaroni Grill catered our dinner at our neighborhood's community clubhouse. We're STILL hearing rave reviews about the meal! It was a good price ($11-12/person for full-service), and the food was incredible. I'd recommend to people for rehearsal dinners and any other event they need catered.

Flowerama Raleigh did my bouquet for my formal portraits, and I was not incredibly pleased. However, the wedding bouquets were gorgeous. Their prices are extremely reasonable and their knowledge and input really helped me select the perfect flowers for my wedding.

We selected Millbrook United Methodist because of its beautiful exterior. It isn't our regular church, but they are very open to non-members getting married there. They are very strict with their rules and regulations, so this may not be the location for everyone. However, we liked it. I thought it was a bit pricey, but I have no other location to compare it to.

Lynette from Douglas Caroll Salon was great during all the pre-wedding appointments. During highlights and practice runs she always took her time and really listened to me. She did a fabulous job!

The staff at Jared's were extremely helpful and did not try to push extravagant or trendy bands on us. They did size my fiance's finger wrong, but replaced his ring (it couldn't be sized) free of charge.

These people were very friendly. They measured my fiance the same day we ordered the tuxes, and were really knowledgeable converting his idea of a tux into specific examples. They brought us several vest/tie combinations until we found the one we wanted, and weren't afraid to share their opinions about which ones didn't work!

I thought Papertown in Raleigh had a great invitation selection. They weren't terribly helpful when I was trying to pick out which invitation I wanted, but they were very helpful when it came to picking out the wording, etc.

If you're looking for a sophisticated boutique with excellent service, this is not the place for you. If you were like me and just wanted to get the most bang for your buck (and number of dresses in one location!), then Bridal Mart in Burlington is good place to check out. They have tons and tons of dresses and great prices.
