This is an awesome couple- and they do an awesome job at what they do! They provided us with DJ service as well as a "Day Of" Wedding Coordinator. They specialize in multicultural weddings and are bi-lingual (spanish/english) This was very important to us since we would have a lot of guests who only speak spanish.
I cannot tell you how much easier Diane (the wedding coordinator) made my life. I honestly do not know what I would have done without her. She was always on top of everything (from making sure the bridesmaids had fans while they were standing at the altar during our outside ceremony, to bustling my dress and touching up my hair and makeup, to lining the bridal party up, to sowing up my dress when I ripped it up in like 3 places!) She's really amazing and I cannot rave about her enough. And that's not even the service that they openly advertise for!...
DJ Rob was awesome- he was just what we wanted: a non obtrusive, non-tacky DJ that played music we liked, and we got just that. He played a lot of the songs on the "must play list". But he was able to get from that list the kind of music that we like, and played awesome music the whole time.
I would recommend them to anybody. And their rates are amazing (especially if you account for a wedding day coordinator being in the package!). Whenever I have another party, I'll be sure to call them
I was very happy with Mariachi Oro de Mexico. They played during our coktail hour and were the highlight of our wedding for many guests. Their sound is great and they came dressed in beautiful mariachi regalia. They were a bit difficult to keep in touch with and we had an issue with them changing the price they had initially offered to us- but all in all, they were great and I was so happy to have them there.
East West Bridals was awesome. They special ordered my dress for me because they didn't have it at the store. This dress, I had tried on at another store but they were selling it way out of my budget (like $2.5k). I went to East West Bridals and told them what dres I wanted. They offered to order it for me and sold it to me for half the price the other place was asking for! They also give you your veil for free if you get your bridesmaids dresses there
Santos Florist knows how to make beautiful arrangements. I loved all my flowers. I described to Manny the feel that I wanted from my flowers- and he made something beautiful that definitely reflected that. Their prices were a lot more reasonable than many of the other vendors I visited in north jersey. Only negative was that they did not bring a bathroom flower arrangement and the thro away bouqet (which i was told was complimetary) was a plastic/silk flower bouquet that looked like it belonged in a thrift store. It wasn't a big deal though because I just used one of the bridesmaids bouquet's instead. All in all, I recommend them
