Any affordable but quality vendors out there?
Ladies, if you know of a great vendor that comes at an affordable cost I'd love to hear about them.
I was curious if there are any limo services, florists, photographers, videographers, and DJs out there that have a reasonable price and do excellent quality work.
If you've had a great experience please share with me!

Thanks so much!

Happy to help, but I need a little bit more information on what you consider affordable.

I guess to be honest I don't really know. I'm not really knowledgeable on all of this. Is is possible to get everything (limo service, flowers, dj, videography and photography) for about $7,000 or am I out of my mind?

Look into venues that offer packages. I know East Wind and Sunset Harbor do this.

The East Wind package at The Cottage is great!

If you have your heart set on another venue and you need to look for vendors I have a few suggestions:
DJ - if you get no frills Tommy's Tunes (or any DJ really) will be affordable.
Florist - Hidden Essence
Photographer - Dan Wagner
Videographer - Halo Productions

HTH! Sorry I don't have any info on limo services.

Any affordable Florists? One that you've used or know will do a good job.

Centerpieces are expensive! The places I've looked at charge anywhere from 60-200ish, so I'm hoping to find a place that offers good bang for the buck. Aren't we all ::sigh::

We used Michelle, her work is fantastic and she was way less then any other quote I got for the same flowers. They were beautiful and lasted over a week after the wedding.

Anyone need a DOC? Mine just started a referral special (after she found out that bride's like me were spreading her info!) so I'd like to find Brides to refer! We would both get a discount!

Re: Affordable Vendors

We have a pretty tight budget and this is who we are using. So far they have all been HIGHLY professional and I loved the samples of their work and the things I have heard about them.

Photo - Scott from Red Sweatshirt Photograph (www.theredsweatshirt.com)
Video - Halo Productions
DJ - Frank from FM Entertainment
Limos - Camelot

Good luck!

Re: Affordable Vendors

I found Distinctive Floral Design in Mineola to be the most reasonable with flowers - they gave me the most bang for my buck

Hmm... I'm spending around 7000 for the video, photo, and dj. I think it can be done if you go no frills. Check out Variety Music DJ -- They were very reasonable and willing to work within our budget. As for video/photo, check out fade to black. I've heard good things about them on the forum. Good luck!!
