Guess What? I booked TWO things last night (Flowers and Video)

1. Video: Candelite Video. We met with Jeff and got to see the 'Bijou' technique. If any of you want a stylized video, this is it. It's 45 mins. to an hour long and incorporates awesome editing and the best shots of the whole day. He cuts to dating pics during the first dance (in a gooooood way!) and also during the parent dances... I literally cried. I never thought I'd do that. He worked on the price for us, and although its more than I wanted to spend, it is so worth it. I encourage you to check him out and tell him Lisa sent you.

2. Flowers. I know girls...after 10 florist visits and wrestling with colors, roses versus no roses, tall versus high, simple versus elaborate, expensive versus cheaper... and driving you ALL nuts (esp. Kissy). I have finally FINALLY found a florist who didn't rip me off and who immediately got me. He is not well known on this website, but I must tell you about him (thanks HMPENA for telling me about him).

*more to come*

Signature Florist, George (tell him Lisa sent you)...516-679-6600 2554 Merrick Road, Bellmore....

George is a great person and his fam. is in the biz for a long time. The shop is great and for the first time I felt so comfortable and that I wasn't getting jipped or not understood. When I saw him the first day he immediately brought out some samples...and he calmly guided me through the process. Last night, we went back and even FH liked the flowers. I've included the following pics. He gave me my sample for free and I am so happy! I told FH that he won't have to hear me say 'FLOWERS' for the next 11 months!
