The Bridal Gallery

2010-09-07 08:22:04

I got the wedding dress of my dreams here. A beautiful ball gown by Maggie Sottero.

I had a very helpful consultant named Vanessa. We went through the store together with my Mom, and we pulled all the dresses I wanted to try on. I fell in love with the first dress I tried on. But to make sure it was "the one" I wanted to try on some more. In total I think I tried on about 15 dresses, but I kept coming back to the very first one.

I also picked out my veil, shoes, tiara and garter from here, as well as the shoes for my bridal party.

It is a very busy store, and you do have to make an appointment ahead of time or they will not be able to fit you in. Sometimes I did have to wait a little while to get assistance, but that is just because of the amount of other brides in the store also needing help.

Overall it was a wonderful experience dress shopping.

We had our reception here and it was amazing. Couldn't ask for a more perfect location. We had a lot of out of town guests who had never been to BC before, and they all loved being out on a balcony adjacent to the room, and seeing the beautiful views of the mountains.

The food was incredible. After the wedding I had so many people tell me how amazing the food was, and many said it was the best they had ever had at a wedding before.

The help I got from the staff was awesome. Stephanie was my consultant, and she was very kind and thoughtful and so well organized. I had a very strict seating chart and different linen colors for different tables, and she arranged it all perfectly.

LOVE this place and the service I received. If you have your wedding here, you will not be disappointed.

Simply Perfect Flowers

Simply Perfect Flowers did the flowers for my wedding, and I am SO happy that I chose them.

They so patiently sat down and had consultations with me, listening to what I wanted and making suggestions of their own. They brought in flowers to show me exactly what they looked like so I could choose just what I wanted for my wedding day. They worked right within the budget I gave them, and came up with some really awesome ideas that I hadn't even thought of myself.

The flowers on the day of the wedding were incredible, exactly what I wanted and more. The colors perfectly matched the color samples I brought in, and they used other shades to accent and really make my colors stand out. The flowers lasted for days after, and we were even able to use all the centerpieces as decorations for a family get together 3 days later, and they still looked amazing.

I wouldn't hesitate to use Simply Perfect Flowers again for any event or special occasion.‎

Black Tie Limousine Service

2010-09-07 08:08:30

My girlfriends booked this limo as a surprise for my bachelorette party. And it was the worst limo experience I have ever had.

The SUV stretch limo arrived on time, but filthy dirty. The limo was obviously not cleaned after the previous guests. There was garbage and spilled alcohol in the cup holders, and swear words written all over the inside of the windows with some sort of sticky goo. The whole limo stank of alcohol. It was also a much older limo, and not very nice at all.

When I called the next morning to complain, I was told that the limo was clean, and I was just making up stories to try and get some money back. I assured the manager that this was not the case, but he continued to get mad and tell me I was just a stuck up rich girl trying to take advantage of him and his company, and then hung up on me.

I have booked many limos before for wedding events, and never again will I do so with this company.

Awesome Service!

They provided me with two beautiful brand new stretch limos, one black and one white.

They showed up on time with a big bow on the limo, rolled out the red carpet, and had complimentary champagne for my husband and I. I felt like a princess being chauffeured around in their luxurious limos.

Couldn't have been happier using them for my wedding. Would book with them again in an instant.‎

Sculptures of Light Photography

Scott Adolph of Sculptures of Light Photography did my wedding. And I couldn't be happier with my choice of a photographer.

I looked through nearly 100 photographers websites, made plenty of phone calls and have a few consultations. The choice of photographer was very important to me, as when the wedding day is all over, all you have is the memories and the pictures, and the day goes by so fast I wanted to have fantastic pictures to look back on.

We went to Rocky Point Park in Port Moody to have our pictures done on the dock and on the beach. The pictures are amazing! Each one is like a work of art. I cannot stop staring at all my beautiful pictures. They are SO incredible...

Scott was very professional and arrived on time, and the whole bridal party had a lot of fun doing pictures with him. He kept us laughing and made the whole picture taking experience a lot of fun.

He has a selection of different wedding packages available in different price ranges, and was able to customize a package for me and stay within my budget.

An awesome photographer and I wouldn't hesitate to use him all over again.
