Hope the meet and greet went well! I've never heard of that before. Was it just the family or bridal party too?
I booked Raphael Gordon for my wedding. He has a really good reputation and FH and I loved his style. I've also heard good things about Ultimate Sounds.

Re: ***Official African American Brides Thread***
it was just family.. no bridal party yet.. i think we're going to have a bbq later on this summer. cause i had SOO much fun!! I feel bad though.. my mom put the thing together and paid for it, and pretty much made the announcement.s i hate talking in a crowd like that so i didn't say anything and now i feel like i should have gottne up and said a formal thank you for her putting the engagement party together in front of everyone..but my fh and i took thie fabulous picure so i'm going to put it in a frame an give her as a picture.. or maybe do a mypublisher book as a thank you.. i need to give her something..
raphael gordon as a dj.. i will look it up!!

thank u for the dj recommendation..
