We ordered personalized playing cards for our wedding favors. I love that people were playing with them at the reception! They were a great price and good quality. I received prompt, good service when I contacted them months in advance to find out when I needed to order them by.
I got the most terrific disposable table cloths. I ordered 96 inch rounds, which I couldn't find anywhere else! These were the really cool linen-like table cloths, no sticky or slip-slidy plastic. It made clean up super easy for my friends. They just picked up the table cloths with all the chinet crystal cut plastic cups and plates and those plastic forks that look like silverware and bunched them up and threw them away. Couldn't have been happier with the price and the quality.
I needed music for the ceremony, and Christy said they could do it and she would send everyone down the aisle in order and at the right time. 100 bucks and that was all taken care of for me! Christy was such a sweetheart! She was checking me over in the parking lot, making sure the veil was centered and no bra was showing and stuff. It was good to have a non-nervous person give you a look over before you walk the aisle, especially if you don't have access to a mirror! But the point is, we didn't pay them to be personally conserned and interested in us having a beautiful and perfect wedding, but they do care.
WOW! I am 30 but Janice and her assistant photographer somehow made me look 18 in the pictures!!! You can see her work at weddings and portraits on her website. This fabulous woman did the photography at my in-law's wedding in 1979. She did two of their friend's weddings around then too. She did a friend's wedding this summer, and then ours this winter. Can't say enough about how much care Janice takes to get the type of photos YOU want. She got these great pictures of us on the swings because I thought it would be cute, and they are just terrific. They took 352 pictures, and I want them ALL!
So, Panache Bridal totally saved my wedding!!!!! 2 weeks before the wedding, I picked up my wedding dress from the alterations shop - and it as covered in stains and looked like a blind monkey had attacked it with a sewing machine. My fiance called a million dress shops to find out if anyone could order a new one in time. PANACHE WAS THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT COULD ORDER MY DRESS ON A RUSH! They found a way by having the dress shipped directly to the shop from China where it was cut and sewn. They were able to get my dress in time because they know their craft - they know their dress companies and how they work. Now, that's not to say I didn't pay dearly for the privilidge, but it was no where near as much as they could have fleeced me for if they wanted to. They knew I was over a barrel. But instead, they hugged me after they placed the order by phone in front of me and told me to take a deep breath and relax because it was all over with. When we didn't have a confirmation number a few days later, they put the phone I called on down on the counter and called the manufacturer on another phone so I could hear them talking to the maufacturer. I used their alterations lady (rosie I think), who was just as sweet as she could be with me. She did the alterations overnight for me. I was tearing up giving her the dress after the first fiasco, but they were just sweet and reassuring to me. They called me a couple times before and after the wedding to check on me and see that everything was alright.
Their dresses are stylish, flattering, and luxurious. The fabric is so nice that I catch myself feeling the fabric a month after the wedding. I picked L9020 from the Belsoie line, which is a bridemaid dress that is floor length and strapless.
