QOTD 12/22

Hi Girls-

First, I want to thank Rita for making me BOTW. I am so excited.

Second, I am sorry for the delay in sending out today’s question. I broke my laptop last night and waited all day for my job to provide a replacement. And now each time I have tried to send this, my computer crashed!

QOTD…

Which vendor was easiest for you to book? And which was hardest? And why? Share vendor names if you don’t mind. This might help new brides or those who are still booking.

Easiest for me was photographer. I knew I needed someone I loved…and Imagine was my one and only choice. Lia and Nelson are such nice people…and they do amazing work. I saw so many past bride’s photo on LIW and knew I had to have them.

Hardest was florist. I wanted someone that understood my vision, but was reasonably priced. That was a hard combo to find…until I met John at Flower Michele. He totally was on the same page as me…and gave a really good price quote.

My Easiest Vendor: Flower Michele and Milleridge Cottage and Hank Lane Review Band

My Hardest Vendor: Photographer because I saw so many amazing ones but got hooked on DeJa Vu Studios!!

Re: QOTD 12/12

my hardest was def the florist. im so clueless about flowers which i hated because i felt like i was going into these meetings blind and didnt want o get ripped off. i also didnt want to spend alot of money. i booked Flower Michele on th espot after meeting with 3 other florists. they worked with me on price and they werent to salesman like.

my easiest was the DJ. i met with 2 and then met with LI Sound and fell in love with them. I'm not even sure why, but i just have a lot of confidence in them. they struck a chord with me i guess and i left there giddy

I would have booked LI Sound if we went with a dj. I've never even seen them...but have heard so many raves about them...that I was booking them no matter what. But we ended up with a band.

Re: QOTD 12/12

well the only vendor i have booked so far is dj and that was pretty easy....we only met with 3 total but went with after hours bc we felt really comfortable with phil and the prices were great.

i did meet with one photographer so far and that was kinda confusing bc i have no idea like how many pictures ill want and stuff...

florist will also probably be confusing...

Easiest: Photographer, once I saw all of TP's pics on here and in person, I was just blown away and knew he was the one we wanted. Although that biatch Teri has him the same day, I still signed his two other guys.

Hardest: The Rh, bc we were so torn....and probably the band. Once we found them, we signed them right away but it took awhile to find a band that was actually worth all that money.

The easiest by far was the reception hall. We saw it and loved it and knew it was what we wanted.

we had a hard time with the photographer. We really loved FS photo but couldnt afford them. We ended up booking with Duet and we are happy!

Re: QOTD 12/12

I only booked the Rh and Band..both were hard. I am super anal and made FH go to dozens of halls lol and even though I knew which band I wanted...i still had to see several others until I finally booked. FH is not looking forward to the flowers and photography meetings lol

Re: QOTD 12/12

Easiest: I have to agree with Christine, my Photographer, after seeing TP's work on here I knew I wanted him, and then after meeting with him I really knew that I had to book him. He is just the best.

Hardest: The RH-because I went to about 12 of them and I felt I was never going to get FH and his family to agree with me on a place

Re: QOTD 12/12

easiest was photographer and rh, michael o'neill and lombardi's on the sound. they were both great.

hardest was the band, we were picky and it took us awhile. we decided on code bleu

Re: QOTD 12/12

Easiest: DJ. I love Bravura they are so professional and they really took the time to listen to me and FH about what we want and what we need from them. I booked them on the spot and I never do that with a vendor.

Hardest: Photographer I haven't even booked because I can't make up my mind! I am so aggravated with this.

Re: QOTD 12/12

Easiest: RH we walked into the place and we just knew...we were torn over other places we looked at but we went to the cottage and it all made sense!!

hardest: being that i only have one vendor booked, the florist...I know nothing about flowers. All i know is i think they are pretty and anything with too much pollen gives me an allergy attack...

Re: QOTD 12/22

to me.... the easiest was the reception hall. i know we saw 3 before settling on Flowerfield, but that was my choice over any venue on the island, and as soon as we were told that we could manage that place... there was no telling me no.

the hardest... i dont know. i had nothing to do with the flowers, the DJ was easy, the photographer was easy, the limos were easy...
