Re: 10/7/05 - The Carltun, NYC Swing, Bliss... LONG with lots of pics! (ETA: Bliss DVD Review 3/29/06)

I'm bumping this because we just watched our wedding DVD compliments of Bliss Productions and I have to say that it is outstanding!! They did a truly amazing job. It's been almost 6 months since our wedding and it was so fantastic to relive it through the DVD. There is so much I forgot or never got to see when it happened.

Bliss was a pleasure to work with before, during and after the wedding. And now seeing the finished product, I would HIGHLY recommend them!

After seeing the video I can further comment on some things I already stated in the review itself:

The Carltun: I never got to see our cocktail hour and after viewing it on the DVD I can say that The Carltun really did a great job! We also missed our dessert cafe, which looked incredible.

Artfool: I got to see some floral arrangements on the video that I never saw in person, and I have to say they were stunning. The cocktail hour looked EXACTLY like what we had discussed in our meetings and the arrangement on the escort taable was perfect. I have to say that it makes me feel better overall about the job that Matthew and Artfool did.

NYC Swing: As I mentioned in my review, I wasn't thrilled with my band. After hearing and seeing them again, I can reiterate that they were not worth the money we spent and they did in fact ruin every 'special' song they played. They also played a ton of music that I am glad I was not in the room to hear, because they were songs I expressly asked them to avoid. Although the video is proof that people were dancing and enjoying themselves, NYC Swing did not do the job I hired them to do, and there are parts of the video I simply have to fast forward as a result. I honestly cannot recommend them.

Also, in fun news, my husband and I are included on theAnne Barge website on the last page of the "Real Brides" section, and we are also on the Redot Designs website.

Futher pictures and info can be found on my post wedding website

Feel free to FM with any questions!
