Here is a small list of my preferred vendors. I know many more vendors than this short list, but these guys are my favorite! We have worked together and they are professional, reliable and excellent in all that they do. Call them yourself or I can set up a private appointment for you to meet with these fantastic people.

*Note* There are too many venues to list; please call for a free consult to determine which venue would be a good fit for you.

I Just Got Engaged, Now What?

Once the ring is on the finger, you've got to start doing your research to see what you like. There's endless variations of styles in the wedding industry.  



To gather ideas, I suggest the following websites to delve into:

The Knot

Wedding Wire

My Wedding

 *As a gentle warning, do not spend too much time on Pinterest.

This addictive place often gives Brides unrealistic expectations about weddings in general. Most of the photos are "staged" and cost a BIG chunk of change to produce.  It can be helpful for keeping track of nifty ideas, but don't invest whole heartedly in these ideas.

You've Set the Date, What's Next?

You have the date set, woohoo!

Now you need to meet with potential vendors and see if your personalities click. It's important to hire vendors who are professional, licensed and/or insured and who understand what your looking for in a vendor.

Often there are "weekend warriors" who do side wedding gigs for extra money. While these folks might be nice and cheap, they may not have the experience, proper requirements or passion to run a wedding business.

Professional wedding vendors understand the importance of your wedding day where you have one shot to get it right.

Take your time during this process, because there are a lot of good wedding vendors out there, but the great ones take time to find.

You'll know it when you meet them: the connection will be instant and you'll leve with the warm fuzzies after you meet the perfect wedding vendor.
