We rented the limo from Boss Tuxedo and Bridal Center on Route 130 in North Brunswick, NJ. We chose a 14 passenger limo and the limo was a newer model and very very nice on the inside. It's a shame how much limo rental places charge when you only spend less than a hour in the limo. But overall our experience was very good with them. They arrived at the house on-time and the people who drove the limo were husband and wife and were very very nice to us.

We chose Dante Tuxedos in East Brunswick, NJ because of the selection, price and they was you can mix and match the items. The price was great and everyone's tuxes were perfect when they were picked up. They did a great job measuring and they are very easy to get to on Route 18.

We chose Kirkpatrick Chapel as our ceremony site. I would only recommend this site more for late fall or winter weddings. They have no air conditioning and the day we married it was very hot and the air did not circulate at all in the chapel. It is a beautiful chapel, with gorgeous architecture and detail but unless you are ok with no A/C, this is not a ceremony site for everyone.

We chose Pierre's of South Brunswick, NJ for our reception. The service was outstanding and the prices were out of this world! They did not base their prises on the time of year which was sooo great! The food was excellent and they only have 1 wedding per Saturday or Sunday so your day is truly your day without interference from other weddings. They also made my wedding cake on site, and it was gorgeous. The bakery did such a great job. Would recommend them in a heartbeat!

I got my wedding gown and bridesmaid dresses at David's Bridal in East Brunswick, NJ. I did not have a good experience there and would NOT recommend them. The purchase of my wedding gown was great; however I purchased a junior bridesmaid dress on a Saturday evening for my stepdaughter. We went home and she told her father that she didn't really like the way teh dress fit but didn't want to tell me because she didn't want to hurt my feelings. We went back to the store first thing the next morning and found a different dress and when I told them that I need to exchange the dress I had ordered NOT EVEN 24 HOURS before, they would not allow me to do so. The order wasn't even placed 12 hours ago and they would not allow me to exchange the dress. I spoke with the manager and she was NOT friendly AT ALL. After arguing for 10 minutes she said she would allow the exchange but since this dress was $50 less I had to spend that $50 in the store right then at that moment otherwise I would lose my $50 - they do not issue credits which I think is ridiculous! I had to go try on $50 wedding shoes and purchase shoes to make up the difference. Again, I would not recommend them again to anyone. I had 2 cousins getting married after me and advised them NOT to purchase anything in that store and they did not.

We selected Primetime Entertainers as the DJ of our wedding reception - they were on-time, pronounced our name correctly (which most people do not) and played all the songs I requested and did not play any of the songs I had on the 'do not play' list. The only downfall was that he played the wrong entrance song - we chose 'Get The Party Started' by Pink and he played "Let's get it started" by the Black Eyed Peas. It was a great entrance nonetheless! Would recommend them again.

We chose Acme Video to record the ceremony and reception for our wedding. The videographer was on time and was recorded all the major events which we requested. We received unedited and edited versions for the video on DVD and it's like watching a beautiful movie. They did a wonderful job with the video.

We chose Acme Video & Photography to take our photos as well. The photographer was on time and a ½ hour early as a matter of fact. They took over 500 photos of us throughout the day and they are all digital. He did an excellent job of capturing every moment, whether it was candid or posed. I also had 4 children in the wedding party and he worked great with the children as well, which is something I worried about. You don't want a photographer who doesn't have a tolerance for children since they have a hard time sitting still as it is. The only downfall was getting the album - it is currently still in the works but I am assured we will have it soon. Due to the type of album we chose, the storybook album, it takes much longer to put together. But other than that I would definately recommend them.

We chose a Royal Carribean cruise to the Southern Carribean for our honeymoon. We went in February and the ship was absolutely gorgeous! We sailed the Adventure of the Seas and the service was unmatched. We have sailed with Carival 2 times prior and Royal Carribean definately was much better, with the service, the food, and the ship itself. The price also was very reasonable. Would recommend Royal Carribean to all cruisers, especially first-timers!

Dee's Florist in North Brunswick, NJ was a tremendous help for my wedding. They were very flexible the pricing and with the flower arrangements. We paid for our own wedding so we were very excited they were able to work with us on the price. I wanted centerpieces for the tables at the reception but didn't want to spend over $25 per centerpiece. They advised me to purchase by own glass bubble vases and they would provide the flowers for the centerpieces for the price I requested. They were absolutely wonderful to work with! Could'nt be happier with the service I received from them.
