my BM is thomas and i found him to be great. I am also booked in the Plaza room. I originally said starlight becauce my first time there the plaza room wasnt set up properly for me to visualize it. but when i went back with my FH and my father it was set up and we went in to look at it with the tulle on the ceiling as well and we fell in love with it. its a really big room and i like that it has a big balcony with the outside tables and chairs and then the staircase to go down to the pool at night if guests wanna just relax and get some fresh air. I'm excited about the room unfortunately i am really slacking in the vendor department. all i have looked at is one DJ and i just set an appointment with ******** Photography for tomorrow i'm getting stressed that i am doing everything really slow. My wedding is in 1 year and 3 1/2 months do you girls think i should be getting a move on booking vendors? or do i still have some time? oh p.s. like all the other girls CH is outside lol

I think you have time...alot of girls on here like to book way in advance. You don't have to do that. But considering you do have a June wedding which is the most popular month if wouldnt hurt to research vendors, find the best and book them.

I booked most of my main vendors /c I'm getting married Labor Day Weekend and that tends to be a popular time. In addition to Crest Hollow I booked my church, my DJ and photographer..

Now I'm taking a wedding vacation and not doing anything else until the summer!!

Re: Crest Hollow Brides

Re: Crest Hollow Brides

I was hung up ion that for a while also...but honestly I can't be concerned about matching my color scheme to the RH....it's not like anyone is going to say you are clashing, ya know??

Re: Crest Hollow Brides

ok thanks for the info. i was starting to feel like i was taking long to do everything but i guess im not too bad. also, what photographers did you girls book so far? because i went to my first vendor tonight and i honestly thought they were very overpriced. their most basic package with ot even parent albums and justone 60 page album for myself and my proofs and two large pictures for the parents was $4100 that was with no videoography at all and no parent albums just my album!! is that a bit crazy? or am i really off with prices?

We are using Dan Wagner Photography.. he is very reasonable, and his work is beautiful! He is a vender on here, you should check him out.

I am so nervous i am behind... i have picked my vendors, (except hair and makeup) but havent really met with any of them since. i did do bm dresses. i got them from black white.

i am just nervous i am not 'on top' of it.

i am using anthony vasquez. i chose him bc we have all the rights to our pictures afterwards. he is way over priaced though- and i probably should have shopped around. i just liked his photos. he just did beverly mitchel's wedding from 7th heaven, if any of you have ever seen that show. which may now be why his prices went up...
