Blurb is an amazing tool for making a sign-in book with pictures. I easily downloaded the application to make my book, added my pictures and left some white space for guests to sign. I then uploaded and paid for my book. The process was super simple and pretty inexpensive for the quality of the end product. My final piece came in the mail promptly and it looked beautiful. All my guests loved it and it turned out to be a very meaningful keepsake!

We had our rehearsal dinner at Mimi's Cafe in Cerritos. We were able to get our own private room because we had 25+ people. The room was average, nothing exceptional, but it allowed us to have a very relaxed and casual dinner. The food was very yummy. The only thing I thought they could have improved on was there seemed to be only one server for our entire group. It made it very slow when taking orders, although the food did come out pretty quickly because I had pre-picked 5 items on the menu for my guests to choose from (company policy with groups of 25 or more). Overall, the price was very reasonable, the food was yummy... and we weren't in a hurry so everything turned out okay.
I found my bridesmaid dresses on Nordstrom.com. They were the exact dress and color I was looking for. I wanted the bridesmaids to buy dresses they could and would wear again later and Nordstrom was able to provide those for us. They were able to ship very quickly AND the best part was you could return at the Nordstrom store so I didn't have to ship the wrong sizes back. It worked out great.
Friar Tux of Lakewood did an excellent job on our groom and groomsmen suits. There was a minor mixed up that involved the dad's suits but all was ironed out quickly and everything turned out okay for the day of.

My husband and I recently had our wedding at El Dorado Park. The event turned our amazing... it was exactly how I had imagined it. We had a wonderful time and the best part was our guest had an even better time. We are constantly getting compliments on how fun our wedding was. It was the perfect cross between formal and casual. The place settings were a bit formal but since the event was outside under a tent it allowed everyone to be and act very casual. That is what I loved most since I my husband and I aren't very formal people and we didn't want a stuffy wedding.
The food was also very tasty. :)
Our cake was included in our wedding package from El Dorado Park. I loved our cake and all of our guests seemed to as well. Not only did it look great but it tasted great too.

Heaven Scent Flowers did an amazing job on my flowers. Tami (the owner) went out of her way to find coral roses that PERFECTLY matched my bridesmaid dresses!!! My centerpieces were also beautifully done. I picked very simple centerpieces but Tami was able to make them look great. She worked within my budget and is very personable. I would highly recommend Heaven Scent Flowers. :)

David's Bridal has many beautiful dresses for a reasonable price. The only problem is they deal with a lot of clients so they don't always give you the attention you need. Everything is very fast paced in the store. I don't know how many times I walked into the store, and no one greeted me or said anything to me.
Alterations are pretty expensive but since I bought my dress from them I felt they knew the dress best and could alter the best.
In the end I loved my dress and I guess that's all that matters. :)
I loved Dave as a photographer.
We did our engagement shoot at Disneyland, which as you can imagine we felt a little awkward at the beginning posing in front of the crowds but Dave did an excellent job making us feel comfortable. By the end of the shoot everything came really naturally and our photos turned our great. All of our shots looked so natural and he was really able to capture the realness of us.
On the day of our wedding, Dave was very prompt and easy to work with. He works with his fiancee as a second shooter. The two of them make an excellent team. Both are very professional yet personable.
I would highly recommend Dave as a photographer. I might even use him in the future for family portraits. :)

Allen was very professional right from the beginning. I could definitely tell he has many years of experience. On the day of our event everything flowed perfectly and our guests have repeatedly told us that our wedding was the most fun they've ever been to. My husband and I definitely recommend Allen.
