Just about offically booked- vendor RAVE!!!!!!!
ok ladies! the mailman just came and took my envelope with signed contract and money order!
a while ago i was talking about ceremony music- i was going back and forth trying to see if we would have it bec (and no offense to anyone!!) i do not love an organ...So i put a post on VHB and got some responses back..
I started emailing Natalie Kriegler of the Capriccio Ensemble. The orginal price was a bit steep for us and she sent me over 3 package options. I didn't need everything in the first one, i wanted to add a few to the second one and i wasnt thrilled with the thrid one. I emailed her telling her everything and she sent me over a custom package with a price we could afford
and sent me over, i believe it was 5 sample cds!
but it doesnt stop there...
We thought we were booking with one church, and i emailed her saying as soon as were booked we will book you (i wanted to make sure the church would allow for ceremony music) . Well, that really did not work out. I emailed her. She emailed me back, so concerned, asking what happened...I tell her. Within a few hours she emailed me a list of places that would marry fh and I and gave her thoughts on each...She also emailed one of the pastors (at the church we will be married at) to see if he would accept us! (we are interfaith couple, btw).
Throughout the process of calling rhese churches and meeting the priest and what not, she would email me weekly to check in!
We were going to meet like a week and a half ago but with everything going on with my grandma i wanted to stay home and what not...She was so understanding and set up a phone conference with me...
She was such a pleasure to talk to! First question was asking me about my grandma and a bunch of other stuff..
we made up the contract in detail and she said she would have it write out to me...
I get the package in the mail the other day and there was the contract with such a nice note, a sample cd for my mom and a new recorded cd for me and fh!
Sorry this is a bit length-y but i just wanted to give credit where credit is due! and of course i hope this helps someone!!!
xxoo
