2Bays DJs

2013-03-05 17:54:56

I had hired these DJs on the premise that they were the best in the area and would be able to DJ an Indian wedding. They said they would do some research on the latest Indian songs, but by the time of our wedding they didn't have any Indian songs on hand, and they didn't even bother pulling the Indian songs from a list that I had sent them. I tried contacting them before the wedding but they said that they had three other weddings before mine and that whatever we discussed they would probably forget by our wedding. Seems like this company is carried by Scott's big ego. My recommendation: go with another DJ that is perhaps less well-known but actually cares about your wedding.

The Cooks' House

This restaurant is supposed to be one of the best in the area, but they did a terrible job catering our wedding. Granted we asked them to make Indian food, but since one of the head chefs had experience cooking Indian food I didn't think this would be so far out of their comfort zone. We had gone over the menu several times before the wedding, and my approach was to suggest dishes but let them take the reins on recipes and preparation. By the time of the wedding, the food was awful and bore little resemblance to actual Indian food. They put kidney beans in the lamb dish, making it resemble some sort of chili. Other dishes were either oversalted or flavorless. The food was the most expensive part of our wedding, so this was very disappointing.

Flowers by Marla Courtney Wood

I did appreciate that Marla was willing to work within our budget when other florists weren't, but the bridesmaids' bouquets were very sparse to the point where they looked more like weeds than actual bouquets. I asked her if she could use silver vessels for the centerpieces because they have a particular significance to Indian weddings. She said she could get these, but then she didn't bother ordering them until a few days before the wedding and they didn't arrive in time.
