I am super excited to use Paige at Dreamland Photography for my wedding. She is very talented!

Paige was quick to respond to all of my questions, is very professional, and is just a great person to work with.

Her pictures are amazing, and her prices are very reasonable!

There is no doubt about it, Cinderella Cakes makes beautiful cakes. Their fondant work is amazing. However, I didn't care for the cake itself. The cake was dry, and the filling too sweet.

If you're more interesting in the looks of the cake, this place can't be beat. However, if you want a cake that will wow your guests, you may want to consider another place.

The price is high, but in line with other bakeries I visited. I had a very simple design (albeit with fondant) and he quoted me $8.50 a slice.

This place is AMAZING. First off, it is truly a hidden gem of Orange County. Located in a small strip mall, it doesn't look fancy, but don't let that stop you! The cakes are moist, and they have wonderful flavors.

Wedding cake tastings cost $20, but if you end up booking the cake through them, they'll credit you the $20. It is WELL worth the money. I tasted at several bakeries, including at bakeries voted "best" by the Knot and My Fox 11, and this is far and away the best. They also didn't charge any more than the other bakeries.

Seriously, this is the best bakery in Orange County.

This is a beautiful Catholic church perched in the hills of Dana Point, with a breathtaking view of the ocean and harbor.

Our priest is Father Mario (he rocks).

The only reason why I didn't give this place five stars is that it is expensive- not only do you pay for the church, but also for the music, the wedding counseling, etc.

This place is a blank slate- you can literally make it your own- and not have a typical hotel wedding.

Planning is necessary as you will have to get permits and your vendors will need proof of insurance, but it is worth it!

Update: the county offers all inclusive insurance for a low rate, so if your vendors are having issues, this can save you a lot of headaches!
