I will get you the info of the one we used. It was a present from DH friend who is a Dj. He hired someone to be our MC, who was sooooo great, he was on point aware of traditions, spoke engl. and span, and had great suggestions. They are actually a house vendor for Riccardo's.

I'll FM you info this weekend.

Oooo great thanks ...like FM entertainment quoted me at $900 but i think that is a bit much..idk about these things so i feel lost..like what is a good price for a dj? My cocktail hour will be in a separate room if that matters...

That sounds REALLY low. Elegancia's beginning quote is higher than that. Is CH included in this price? If you want to keep costs low DO NOT, DO NOT get lured into upgraded lighting, live percussion, perimeter lighting...it's a downward spiral from there.

i looked into elegancia and FM when looking....eleganica quoted me a much higher price then FM...i was impressed with FM at their showcase, FH and I both really liked them

Yeah. That was my biggest concern. Because technically you are supposed to book the church then the RH. Because the church is really the most important part. I've been told that sometimes the church gets mad when they find out that people booked the RH first.

dont tell them youve booked the RH already...they dont have to know...tell them you really want that date and its a special day to you (anniversary or whatver) and see if the date is open. then like a week later say youve booked the RH

Yeah. I know my friend already told me. Thank You. they already gave me the date so I'm all squared away w/ the church.
