I love this band!! Great band that plays salsa, merengue, hip hop, and r&b. They can be expensive $5000 for 4 hours of the Soto Band, 2 hours of mariachi, and 6 hours of dj services. They need their own generator and will charge extra for that! I recommend that you contact the band, dj, and mariachi directly and not their manager...she had difficulty returning emails and phone calls.

Danny is well priced and worked with our budget!! He is great in animation and puts that creativity into the wedding video. He was with us the entire day!!! From the hotel room, to the ceremony, to the reception, and till the end party!!

Well priced $385 for 5.5 hours and had beverages and champange in the limo. The driver was extremely patient and kind. He allowed me to stay in the limo before the ceremony so that I could stay cool. He even held my bouquet and dress so that I wouldn't drop it and get it dirty. Great service and professional!!

This is a small jewlery store in down town Los Angeles that has an amazing selection of rings and diamonds. They are family owned and have excellent customer service, they even gave us apple juice!! They are well priced for the quality of the diamonds and they will make the rings however you would like them designed!!

This is nice cattering company that offers good food, tables, chairs,linens,lighting, glass wear, dance floor, servers, etc. Its approximately $50 a plate, good variety of ethnic cuisine. They planned out the schedule for that day and offered a coordinator for my entire wedding reception. They are not wedding planners they are wedding coordinators. I still had to call all vendors myself, type up the guest list, make a seating chart, go to the fire department and get the fire permit for them, and I had to have to assign two ushers to seat guests and pack gifts into our truck. This company has everything you could possibly need, but there is still much work for the bride and groom to do.

The Flower Garden is a small floral shop in Pasadena. From the outside it doesn't look like much, but the floral arrangements that come out of there are amazing!! Matt gave us a wonderful price for our arrangements under $2000. I wanted simple flowers (hydrangeas) and I was firm on what I wanted!! Matt sent me a prototype of his ideas and my flowers and the outcome was fabulous!! He added just enough details and made my flowers look elegant!!

I loved this venue!!! This outdoor venue had amazing gardens and areas for our guests to visit. It was well priced at $3000. Unfortunatley, there is a noise ordinace and you must keep the music under certain decibals and no sound after 11pm, which really affected our entertainment. They kept giving us warnings and if we didnt turn down the music we would have to pay a $1500 fine. If your wedding isn't centered around loud music and partying, this place is perfect. If you want to party and have the music blasting I would search for another venue.

Maggie and Michael are married and they are wonderful team of photographers. We contracted them for my wedding and engagment pictures and they were well priced at $2700 (for the package we selected). This husband and wife duo are so amazing, caring, compassionate, and dedicated. I was uncomfortable in front of the camera, but Maggie always made me feel better. They were with us every step of the way and when we were tired, Maggie came around with drinks to cheer us up!! They were more than photographers, they ended up coordinating much of my wedding!!! At the end I felt like they were family!!!

The staff at Alfred Angelo is very helpful. They pulled many gowns for me until we found my look. The quality of the dresses are great and I was able to get a well priced dress for $799 ($300 of during their 25 year anniversary sale). I was able to get my vail and bra there. I was dissapointed that I had to pay for pressing my dress, another $100, especially since I bought the dress there. Alternations were expensive, $250 and they charged for $20 for each bustle. Things started to add up!

Rubi did a wonderful job on my hair and make up. The $300 included my trial session (hair/make up) my wedding day session, and she traveled to my hotel. Having Rubi do my hair and make up gave me a great sense of relief, my look turned out AMAZING and I felt so beautiful!! Ruby is extremely professional and is willing to hear out any concerns. The day of my wedding, there were some family issues and Rubi stayed calm and kept me calm. She was my make up artist and counselor!!! I would highly recommend Rubi to any bride and bridal party!!!
