Very nice accommodations. We spent our wedding night here. We were so worn out from the wedding we collapsed. Not how we envisioned out first night together as a married couple. However the Hyatt turned things around for us the next day. They brought us breakfast, lunch, and even gave us a $50 gift card to a restaurant of our choosing for dinner. The service here is outstanding and they really make you feel special.

This restaurant is an old family favorite and we really enjoyed ourselves during the rehearsal dinner. It was a joy to do a dry run through of what was to be and have some yummy food at the same time. We were lucky enough to get the last banquet room available. The coordinator was very nice and helpful. The service was excellent and the food was to die for. I love how they aren’t stingy with the food and make sure you have some to take with you. The group favorite was the breadsticks!

My husband dreads going shopping so he ordered his tux online. He said it was very easy and saved him a lot of time. We measured him at home, searched for a nice looking tux, and placed the order. It took less then two weeks to receive it. He even got free shipping if he threw in an order of cufflinks. Very pricey but nice clothing.

I’m obsessed with MAC so there was no way I was having some other company make me up on the most important day of my life. Several days before the wedding we did a trial run through and spent a lot of time determining what shades looked best because I had a very unique color dress. I even received complimentary lipstick (because I always eat it off) and some cool samples. Great company!

I thought this would be a nice affordable place to get jewelry for my wedding party but, to my dismay some of my bridesmaids were allergic to counterfeit jewelry, so I felt super bad. Some went without matching jewelry. Aside from feeling really bad I didn’t spend much money and got a lot of nice pieces.

The main focus for my wedding was affordability and Walmart provided that. Although I wanted to keep my purchases under wraps no one noticed because the invitations I choose were exquisite. They were in my price range so I cleared the shelf. Walmart is a good place to go if you’re on a tight budget and still want things to look semi expensive.

I was a first time cruiser and to say the least this was the most incredible vacation I have ever been on. My husband had to be back to work sooner then expected so we had to choose a short cruise but, nevertheless it was so much fun. We sailed out from Florida to Nassau, Bahamas and it was nothing but greatness from there. We swam with the dolphins, rode horses on the beach, played some golf, and most importantly had time alone.

My decision for flowers came down to Sam's or Costco and I went with Sam's because dollar for dollar I was getting a better deal. They have an enormous selection to choose from. The appearance meant a lot to me and our flowers totally stood out. The only set back was taking all the thorns out and re-creating the presentation I saw online. I ordered them in bulk to save money and I didn’t receive anything less then the best. Also, when we got back from our honeymoon the flowers were STILL alive. I was totally shocked, that’s how you know you have quality flowers.

We bought most of our favors here because I had coupons. It’s very reasonably priced and does not appear cheap. The customer service is not that great. I spent some time trying to get someone to help me and once I did she didn’t know much. It appeared as though they were understaffed. I would recommend going online first or going with someone with experience in the arts and crafts department.

I bought my flower girls dresses here. It was so easy placing my order because their wedding specialist was very well informed. She was use to working with kids and it showed because my two nieces felt very comfortable. At the time they weren’t too busy so we were able to get more assistance. Overall it was a fun day and the dresses are absolutely beautiful.
