Hey to be

I was wondering who are you using

For videographer and why
For photopher and why
Dj and why
Limo and why

And what kind of downpayment did you have to put down for there services

Thank You gals

video and pictures....Imagine bc the girls on here were very happy with them... $500 down payment

band....Body Heat bc they were amazing at both my sisters weddings and my cousin...$7200 i don't remember the downpayment..(we got it for less)

limo....didn't book yet, but if you do a search on here you will find reviews about different companies

photography/video: perceptions photography. i saw alot of photographers that were amazing, but anthony had the best photojournalistic pictures. we left a $1000 deposit for photo and video.

band: Body Heat! they are awesome. we left a $750 deposit on the day we booked and then sent another $750 one month later.

lmo: have not booked yet.

Photo and video: Duet Wedding Studio - loved their pics and all packages came with two photographers and videographer. Paid $3500 for everthing (we got extra stuff). Down payment was 30%.

DJ: Get In Tune - really liked him and heard only great things plus the price was right. $2000 we paid but we added some live people to the package. You have to leave 33%.

Limos - haven't done yet.

Videograper-Wild Rose!
Why? They are truly incredible!

Photographer-Patken (steve)-I liked their picture style

Limos-Ultimate Class
I worked in the limo industry for 10 yrs & knew what I wanted. Alot of other companies were also more $$ and/or had dirty cars!

No limos
No videographer

Photographer: Jonathan Hubschman www.makarion.com
Why? He is very original, photojournalist, not typical wedding photos. Tells story of day, let us design our own 'package' w/out albums so we could do them ourselves. Great guy.

Deposit: 50% of package cost

DJ: Expressway Music www.expresswaymusic.com
David is a great guy, was able to 'read' our tastes and so I figured could read a crowd. Heard good things about them. Also hired string trio through them.

deposit: $450 for $1450 total dj services

photographer...VIP...I liked his work (it was actually his nonwedding photographs that won my vote...lol...but he has a picture of the coliseuma dn of neuschwanstein in his office...adn I love that castle)..and I thought the price was great...

video...wild rose...great editing...no cheese

dj...spin around sound...he instantly knew exactly what kind of music I wanted...

limo...AllStar...customer service was great

but I must say that all of these had great reviews from the ladies on this site...

search for the names that you are curious about...I never found a negative review from any of these vendors...and make sure that you talk to the newlyweds who have actually used them....
