Here are the Ceremony & Reception Vendor Reviews
Abba Photography- A+, they were affordable and friendly. The pictures turned out great and they delivered them SUPER quick! We received a high res DVD and the rights to print whatever we choose (we could also order from them if we wanted).
Rev. Gary Davids- B, he was affordable and friendly, but didn't seem 100% comfortable with performing the ceremony. It wasn't a big deal, but I would not recommend him for a large formal wedding.
Tuxedo Catering- A- They are very affordable and willing to price match. We were able to provide our own alcohol and pay them to bartend as well. We asked for some minor help/changes on some things and they were very willing to help. We received compliments on the food. There was a couple things that I would have changed food wise, but I would recommend them!
Peninsula Club- C, This was a tough one, the place large, pretty on the inside, and very affordable. The parking situation isn't great and the outside could use some work. There was a large hole where they were doing repairs to the front of the building. What was even worse is when we had to set up, NO ONE SHOWED! We were scheduled at 1pm and had all of the stress of wondering what in the world we were going to do. We FINALLY got in just before 3pm. After that, things were fine.
Cupcake Crazy- A, Karen is delightful! She is so sweet and willing to help you figure out what you want. We changed our mind after we met and she was more than willing to sit down and sketch out a new cake. Her cake was delicious! I wish we would have ordered more just so we could have had some to take home. She was on time to set up the cake and it turned out great!
DJ London Underground- A, Mark is a fun and reliable guy (and again, he was affordable). He did a a great job and was willing to play whatever we asked. He provides some lighting and a fog machine if you would like them too. The one thing I would have changed is to not play so much rap at the end of the wedding. I could have asked him and he would have listened, but I didn't bother with it.
Melissa T Photography- She did our engagment pictures and was great! So, we hired her for our reception also. Her and her husband worked as a team and showed up on time and even stayed a little later. I should be receiving the disk soon, so we'll see how they turned out, I'm expecting they will be great! I can give her a "grade" after I receive that, but based on everything so far, she gets an A.
