The day has come and gone, and hopefully I can help some future brides!!! All my vendors were from London unless otherwise stated

Flowers - Burke Flowers 10/10

I went with them because they are friends of my parents and boy did they do an excellent job!!  I didnt show her any inspiration pictures, she just put something together for me the first time I met with her and it was wonderful.  They did an exceptional job with the bouquets as well as my amazing centrepieces!

Cake - Piece of Cake 10/10

Glenda was amazing to work with.  I got so many fre samples to make sure that I chose the exact flavour that would fit the day.  She was VERY reasonably priced and did a fantastic job!

Dress - Balletts 8/10

I searched high and low for the dress, and I found the exact one at a few other stores for a few hundred more.  I took it back the week before the wedding to be steamed only to find out I had to pay (most stores I spoke with said it was included if you bought at their store), not only did I have to pay - it looked like they hadnt touched it!! GRR  I was ok with it though because I knew I would be moving around etc and it wasnt horribly wrinkly. The ladies also took very long to even say hello to me when I went the 3 or 4 times I went , and they were just talking to other salespeople at the time.

Hall - Lamplighter Inn 100/10

Claudia and her crew were AMAZING!  They had someone come up to my room and phone throughout the morning to make sure I was ok and didnt need anything.  The food was amazing, the hall was spectacular and they surprised us with a gift of glass ice bucket & champage flutes after the night was over!

DJ - Black Tie Productions - 10/10

Jack did a great job.  He was a bit cheaper then the competition and was very professional and made sure all the songs I wanted got played.  I felt bad at the end of the night for not tipping him, but I guess he makes the money in the end as he is a one man company.

Hair - Sami & Naji 100/10

These ladies worked their butts off for us!  They made sure everyone was completely satisfied before we left.  Hats off to them!

Tuxes - Collins Formalwear 9/10

The suits were great - they lose .5 a point because the brown suits were expensive... and the other .5 because their suppliers SUCKED at measuring the guys.  I was thankful they picked them all up at the big warehouse so they could fix the very short sleeve measurements and coats that were too long. I think my husband's was the only one to fir properly.

I think thats it.  If you have any more questions feel free to PM me

Finally Mrs. Baker !
