on average

We really liked all of our vendors right from the beginning, so we did not meet with that many people. I did a search on this website for a few people, and that helped me narrow down our search. I was SO happy with every single vendor!!!!!!!!!!!!! They all went above and beyond with their service.

Here's how it went:
We looked at:
1 Reception Hall (love at first sight. They had everything we were both looking for)
2 Photographers & Videographers
2 DJ's
2 Florists
2 Hair Ladies
1 Make-Up Artist
3rd Gown (I tried on a few more after that, but I went back to the 3rd one that I saw)
1 Limo Company (DH wanted 1 specific limo that only this one company had)
The only thing that took a little while was shopping around for favors.

My average won't really help, so here is a breakdown.

Reception halls - 25
Photographers - 7
Videographers - 3
Florists - 14
Limos - 4
DJs - 1
DOCs - 5
Horse & Carriage - 3
Makeup - 1 (but my sister used her in '04 and I loved her)
Hair trials - 3
