Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

Nah, at this point, I can't be bothered. Although when I think of it, it still gets me steamed.

More important things to concentrate at this point. (TTC for one - yay!)

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

I used Flower Michele, and so did a friend of mine and I had no complaints. He was great as far as I'm concerned. I would be a little miffed if that happened to me though.

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

I gave A+'s at least to almost everyone except the tux place. In the end my guys got the right tuxes and looked Fabulous, but I was so stressed out the whole time.
Moving along, I will better answer this question once I get my proofs and video back.
I was truly a happy Bride, any little thing that went wrong (and very little did) was my fault

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

Without a doubt - my photographer/videographer. While I am very happy with the quality of the shots we have, dealing with him afterwards has been awful. Plus, there are a few shots that I don't have - like one with my brother & sister together, or with my parents together. I have these separate, but not together (make sense?). Plus, we don't have any real artsy shots except for a couple, but that didn't really bother me until afterwards, so that's my own fault.

The video was nothing like what we expected (or had seen). It was not edited well, and while the quality of the actual ceremony & reception is great, the 'special effects' are from like 1982! If I would have been thinking, I would have just handed the tapes to my brother since he is a video editor. *sigh*

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

I dont think I gave plusses, but I will say that I was not thrilled with our bakery. (Audreys). The cake looked beautiful, and tasted amazing. But it was supposed to have fondant bows going down the front, and they werent there. I paid extra for it too! But like I said, it still looked beautiful and tasted great. Tom and I were the only ones that knew it wasnt perfect.

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

For me it was my band and photographer.

The band that I hired, half of the band on my wedding day was replacements and the replacements in no way went by my sheet on what songs to play, etc....

My photographers, after my wedding, they were horrible to deal with. We were personally insulted in many ways when I brought up a displeasure with my album. The treatment was totally unprofessional!

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

Basically, after looking at our pictures and video I can honesly say that that only vendor who deserved an A+ was our florist! she did everything perfectly, on time and out of all the pieces she created not one was screwd up or rubbed me the wrong way! Me, Ms.Paranoid! My mom still can't believe that i let her creat my bouquet without showing me a sample! I just totally trusted this women from the start! Viva Mila from Sweet Blossom in Brooklyn! ( you can still say good things about the vendor and reveal the name, rigth? )

Everyone else: our band, wedding hall, photographer, my hair & make-up artist screwed up one way or another! But whatever,since we made it to our 3 months anniveresary (today ), it's all good!

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

For me - it was my church.

From the rehersal to the ceremony - my Church made me fume!!! They treated us so poorly that to this day I get angry everytime I think of it.

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

Paiz - we tried to get our unedited tapes from him, but they are gone. Apparently they reuse the tapes since they are digital and $$$. Totally ticked me off since that means that someone else is getting a used tape to have their wedding recorded on. I was so not happy about that, and I let them know it.
There were things in there that I would have liked to have seen, even if they didn't make it to the edited version. *sigh* I try not to let it get to me, but sometimes it just makes me angry and a little sad that the rest of my footage is just gone.

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

Vicki so you did not get your raw footage at least they should have offered it to you at a cost.

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

You know what's funny. Before the wedding, I told myself I would do my review on a scale of 1-10.

I was so eager and did my review RIGHT after my wedding from the hotel, I used the Letter scale instead.
I forgot all about my plan

Re: ALL THOSE WHO GAVE VENDORS A+++++++++++++

Shamma - nope, we didn't even get the raw footage offered at cost. I must not have read the contract closely enough, which again is my fault. If I would have read it again before the wedding, I'm sure we could have worked something out. And he had the nerve to tell me that he had never heard that a Bride & Groom get the raw footage! I jumped all over that one.
