Stephanie and Jill call themselves "Day of Coordinators", but they are sooooo much more. We had a total of 5 meetings with them BEFORE the wedding. They were always super organized and very helpful with ideas and solutions when we needed some guidance. They took charge during the rehearsal, which was so helpful with so many family members and friends there. They created and distributed timelines for all our vendors and even our bridal party. Then on the day of, they were there to set up everything besides the flowers, which was a lot of stuff, and make sure everything happened when it was supposed to happen.
On top of that, they are by far the most reasonable, and you get TWO of them. We interviewed other people who wanted to charge more than three times as much for DOC services. And all you got was one meeting before the day of, and just an assistant that would show up the day of. With Jill and Stephanie, they were both there for each meeting, plus the day of.
They love what they do, and it really makes you feel important and cared for. And they really listen to you and help you design your day to make your vision become a reality.
I cannot recommend Stephanie and Jill anymore then all the brides before me. They were worth every penny and then some. If you think you might need some help for your wedding, hiring Stephanie and Jill is hiring peace of mind and a guarantee that your day will go off as perfectly as possible.
We looked at several different photobooths, and actually booked another less expensive one, but we saw Photoworks at a bridal show and really liked the way the photos turned out and how the booth was set up. There are 6 pictures on each strip and you can even custom design what is in the middle. We put our initials and the date of our wedding and added a personalized graphic. It made for a very nice memento.
The photobooth came staffed with 2 people so that one could help people take the photos, and the other could staff the scrapbook table and show people how to do that. The downside is that you have to pay for 2 dinners. The upside is that there was not much of a line because they were moving people through quickly, and the scrapbook turned out amazing! They provide the book, scissors, stickers, pens, etc. The great part is that you get the finished scrapbook immediately. It's a nice thing to look thru right after the wedding.
And the other plus is, when we came home from our honeymoon, they had sent us a CD with ALL the pictures that were taken that night. High resolution images of the 6 picture strips, plus each individual picture. We ended up printing copies for people who left their pics in the scrapbook. Everyone from flower girls to grandma to drunk friends took a turn.
They all raved about the photobooth and thought it was the best idea ever.
The only complaint I would make is that we sent them our personalized graphic a month before the wedding, and after numerous emails and phone calls, we still didn't get a final proof of what it would look like until a couple days before the wedding, which was a little bit of a headache. But, it ended up really turning out great.
The whole thing was definitely pricey at $2165 total, but in the end, really worth it because of how well it all turned out and what a huge hit it was with everyone.
