Rexcraft offers some of the most elegant and beautiful invitations. But I must admit that I did not order mine from them, because of the pricing.

I would definitely recommend ordering a free subscription of their magazine. They have a great selection of ceremony/reception items to choose from at very decent prices. You can also have things personalized for a good price.

I would recommend brides to at least look at the selection The Bridal Room has to offer. They have extremely beautiful bridal gowns and a great selection of bridesmaid dresses, although they were a little overpriced and out of my personal budget. The associates were very nice and very helpful in helping me try on the dresses.

This bridal show takes place every year at the beginning of the year. I highly recommend every bride to attend! There are fashion shows, and over 100 local vendors with each one having coupons or prize giveaways. It's a great way to get ideas of all the vendors who are out there, and it's a chance to talk with them with quick questions without having to set up an appointment.

I must say that I definitely did not expect to get any wedding stuff from Wal-Mart, but when I was walking in the store the other day, I noticed their wedding section. It was fabulous! All the stuff I needed for a very cheap price! They have ringbearer pillows, flower girl baskets, favors, invitation kits, unity candles, aisle runners, you name it! Why spend $10-$30 more on something when it's just as good at Wal-Mart?
Karen does an excellent job with her wedding cakes, and she is very reasonably priced. I had set a budget on the cake before I talked with her, and her quote was well under the price I thought it was going to be! She is a very nice lady and I highly recommend talking with her.

I highly recommend this flower shop to future brides! They have a great selection of beautiful flowers. The owner was extremely helpful in helping me decide what exactly I wanted in my wedding, and she was very knowledgable and had good taste. The flowers also weren't overpriced and I was surprisingly able to stay within the budget I had set for my whole order. Cheap compared to other local vendors.
Ducky's Formal Wear is a great place to rent the guys' tuxes! They are reasonably priced and they have a great selection to choose from. They also have a great deal where you can get free invitations (a good selection of invitations to choose from), the groom's tux free, or several other deals you can choose when you rent 6 tuxes or more. The associates are very helpful as well. Highly recommended!

My experience with Celebration was not very good, but please keep in mind that it does often depend on the actual store you go to. For one thing, I did not see very many dresses that I cared for that were within my price range. When I went to try on the dresses, the associate showed me a room and I had to do the rest myself. It was horrible trying to get in the dress and tie the corset up all by myself! I left the store very upset.

I had a great experience working with David's Bridal. Their associates were very useful in helping me choose a dress, veil, headpiece, etc. They were very friendly and upbeat, and treated me like a princess! They actually helped me try on the dresses, unlike some bridal shops that I previously went to. They were everything that I was looking for in a full-service bridal shop. The dress also comes in at a decent time. The only thing I did not like was that some of their merchandise was a little overpriced. But they have such a great selection and a great rewards program!
