When vendors work well together, it makes it a breeze to serve you and your needs on your wedding day. We've had our fair share of vendors that were uncooperative and make things much harder. 
I've even had a DJ once that started the first dance before letting anyone know...not even the bride! He just announced and started playing music and the bride had to rush out there along with myself!

In the end, it boils down to how we can best serve you and help you preserve your wedding day. There are tried and trusted vendors that we absolutely love love love. We only recommend these folks because of their good work ethic, kindness, and ability to deliver amazing results to you.
