Patken Photographer vs Twelfth Night Photo Help

I am trying to choose between Patken & Twelfth Night. The reviews on LI weddings for both are great. I was quoted on the following packages:

Twelfth Night are offering 2 Photographers, 700 4x6 proofs, CD with all photos, rainy day-day after shoot of Bride & Groom & Thank You card design for $2600.00 plus tax. I get the CD immediately with unmarked proofs.

Patken are offering 1 Photographer 20x20 wall portrait, 11x11 and 2 8x8 portraits. 8x8 engagement portrait, 75 thank you cards, all proofs in a 5x5 album. 5x7 for bridal party, Digital album of 30 images for $2500.00 plus tax.
However I do not get the CD with unmarked proofs until 10 months after the wedding.

I like the photography style of Twelfth Night better than Patken but Patken offers so much more for less. I would like for them to add a second photographer but I am not sure if I need a second photographer. I like Photojournalism and candid style photography....

i spoke to Dom from 12th night and he made a good point if you love their work or Patkens work go with that because once the wedding is over your going to be kicking yourself saying i shouldve spend $100 more and i wouldve been more satisfied instead i chose the vendor that offered more pics but i dont like the pics...get my point

I met with both along with many others..out of the 2-- I would choose 12th night..they are more personable.

One thing I notice from Patken but this is just my JMO all there wedding seem the same. I do not see a variety in the shots and editiing. When I see some brides pics from Patken they are beautiful but it's the same as the Patken bride before them.
