hmppph!!!

So I just called a limo vendor to inquire about prices....and when i told him when our wedding was (05/06/07) he was like thats really early.....

i dont think i like him.....

are people still saying its too early?!?! i mean really its already 2006!!!

I can't believe he said that! Especially being that tomorrow is 2006!

I wouldn't bother w/ him.

No, I mean my videographer said 'oh you're planning early' but when I explained my situation to him (I stop planning in April and won't start back until August, 8 months before the wedding) he said it makes sense and locking the price is always good. Did you call njl? I know they may be closed today because of NYE but call on Monday or Tuesday. No one made me feel silly for booking yesterday.

i'll call either today or early next week...did you do everything over the phone? or did you go there? can i ask what you package included?

TIA!

thats what NWF did to me!! and she told me to leave and come back... after I raced to get to the appt on time... she said... I don't have time for hour right now, and its too early... come back later.

I was like... YEAH ILL COME BACK... With 6 dozen eggs... HAHAH JK!

I did the online form and then they replied with a quote. I can FM you the email. Then I went in and saw the limos (they are getting the 2007s by the time the year rolls around). I spoke to the bridal consultant lady, Mary and she gave us a flat rate of $600 (gratuity already added) for 3 hours in a 14 passenger white excursion. if we wanted the 20 passenger escalade she said we could have it for 800 but we don't really need something that big.

Here's the email (with names edited)
Thank you for your recent request for Limousine for 4/27/07. My name is J from NJL Limousine, and I would be more than happy to offer you a fantastic rate on our Ford Excursion Stretch SUV.
