Re: How much on each vendor list

We're having our reception at the Hamlet, too!

If we only have the guaranteed minimum at reception: about $6300.
DJ: haven't 100% decided but the person I think we're going with is $1400. We're not meeting anyone else.
Photo: too much! $3600 but doesn't include alot of stuff so we have to buy extra the parent albums and some other stuff.
Flowers: haven't decided 100% yet either but the place we may go with quoted us $1300. But I'm meeting with 2 others and then will make my final decision.
Church: $575

Re: How much on each vendor list

60 for a May Saturday Night. Its not as great a price as you would think. But it isn't bad either... and it includes tax and the service charge.
