I have been going to Chung at Expressions for haircuts for years, and when I got engaged, she offered to do my wedding day updo at no charge. She does such a great job, and she always listens to what I would like, and then offers advice. She knows what style looks great on each person, and she does such a wonderful job!

The Bluffton Community Center is not a very pretty area...but you can decorate it nicely. The managers of the community center are not the most helpful people. If I had the time, I would hold the reception somewhere else.

The Rental Store in Fergus Falls, MN was so great. Since I live about 45 miles away, they emailed me pictures of the chairs that I was interested in renting, and they held them for me until I made a decision. I was able to rent 200 matching white folding chairs for the ceremony for only $1.25 each.

The Scrap Nook in Wadena, MN helped me design one of a kind invitations, for under $1.00 each! Kim at the Scrap Nook worked so hard to find the perfect color paper, ribbon, embellisments, and fonts for me. The invitations turned out better than anything I could have dreamed up, and they are unique! I was thinking of making the invites myself, and I am so glad that I went to the Scrap Nook. Kim was so helpful and fun to work with, and she got me really excited about the invitations. Plus, I had enough extra paper to make all of my programs!

My fiance and I really wanted to have an outdoor wedding, and I used to work at the Whistle Stop Inn, so they offered to let us have the wedding there. THe grounds are beautiful, there is an amazing old house, and lots of pretty hydrangeas. We will be the first couple to get married there, and I love that! I am so excited to have a unique and beautiful spot to get married.

Gail from Brink's jewelry helped us pick out the perfect ring for my fiance and worked with us to make sure we knew all the info we needed to make our decision. They've been in business for many years, so we know they'll stand behind their jewelry.

Jaime is AMAZING!!! She has the most unique, fun pictures that you will actually frame or scrapbook, not just put in an album in the closet. She has great prices too. I am so excited to work with her, I can't wait!

Great food, inexpensive, they provide all the plates and silverware, and you get to keep all of the leftovers! Perfect!

Debbie makes the best cakes, they taste amazing, they are always beautiful, and everyone loves them! Plus, she is very reasonable in price!

Tessa at Designs by Tess was so helpful and fun to work with. I went in with an idea of what I wanted and left so full of excitement and ideas that I ended up adding some cool things to the rest of my wedding decor! She was willing to meet me after hours to work with my work schedule, and never once hurried me! She has great prices, and I loved her attitude.
