fabulous Photographer,DJ,Videographer, and honeymoon spot for a very tight budget?

Hi, I am new this board and I just booked my wedding at the Swan Club for May 21 2006. We will only be about 50 people and our budget is already stretched very thin. Photos are one of the most important aspects to me and I would love any recommendations. We also need a good DJ for a crowd who are not big dancers. I am not sure if we will even be able to have a videographer, this might have to be something we cut out for budget reasons but I would still like a recommendation just in case. I would also love to hear positive experiences at the Swan Club I am so nervous.

Also is anyone going on a great but very affordable honeymoon, possibly staying fairly locally. Any advice for how to find great deals? Thanks so much. Dawnreflections

The Photographer/videographer that the Swan club recommends is actually very good and reasonably priced; Glenmar Studios

Just wanted to add that I wasn't impressed with Swan Club's recommended DJ. We ended up going with Tommy's Tunes.

Check out TimeXposures We got a very reasonable Photo and Video package from Jon. Our pictures were incredible!

For a DJ we used Vinny from High Voltage he was fantastic and very reasonable.

Frank from Lca studios, was just amazing, he was easy to work very nonintrusive and welcomed all my suggestions. He also worked with our budget. I just loved my finished project, and it is something that I have watched over and over. I got married in Aug and received my wedding movie on x-mas eve. Which is just 4 mons. My movie poster (under sample movie poster) and wedding clip (under sneak previews) are on the website.

www.lcastudios.com

Jim and Rose from Classical Look Photography were also great, very sweet and attentive. My album and proofs were amazing too, the color quality was the best I've ever seen. I had my proof in two weeks and all of them placed in 2 albums. Jim also worked with our budget. My wedding album was just beautiful.

I definately recommend scheduling an appointment with both, you won't be disappointed.

Fm me for more info.

For HM - have you thought about a Sandals? All inclusive is probably one of the easiest ways to stay within a budget
