Terri Lathrop Photography A+
Terri was fantastic. She did my Sr. Portraits in high school, left and moved with her Marine husband for a few years and came back in time to do my wedding. Very prompt and professional. We even had our (unedited) wedding photos on 2 CDs THAT NIGHT so we could see them before she edited them! We were very happy with her work.
Brian Delia Photography (NYC skyline engagement photos) A+
Brian was wonderful! He was very professional, and listened to what we wanted. His packages were extremely affordable. We got his most expensive, and it was still so affordable. The first time we went to do this, we got rained out (it didn't rain, it POURED) and he was great in rescheduling. He had brought several copies of his legal contract to make sure everyone had enough copies. I wish he lived in NC to do our wedding! Some of our photos made his website!
Monte Printing (for Invitations) A+
Great company to work with! I thought the writing on the invitations was going to be more pronounced then it was, but overall we really like them, and the price was right.

Golf Smith.com (for golf tee favors) A+
They were great! The golf tees came very fast, and gave lots of personalization options (but we kept it standard-white with black) They shipped less then a week after ordering, and while bagging we looked over all the writing, and everything was perfect!

David's Bridal (for my dress and bridesmaids dresses) B+
Pros: Good prices, nationwide, great quality and beautiful colors and dresses. Went to the Davids in Greenville NC. 3rd store I went to, and best experience. Tabby was awesome! My dress happened to be one that was no longer made, which made me feel better about buying it from Davids.
Cons: When the dresses came in, they would call ME and not the bridesmaid, and they made ME pick up all the dresses that went to the Greenville NC location (which was 4 out of 6!) Also, when one of my bridesmaids bought her dress from the Fayetteville NC location, but had moved to Ohio since it ordered, she needed it shipped there. When she had ordered it she told them to send it to the Ohio store, and they said it would be no problem. Davids did not listen. I was about to have to drive 3 hours to pick it up, or they were going to charge the bride (aka ME!) a 'holding fee' (anyone else heard of this?!?!) There should not have been one to begin with, since we told them where to send the dress when it got ordered. After enough yelling at them, they sent it up to Ohio and all was well.

This is where we ordered our personalized ribbon to tie around our horse cookie favors. We were happy with the quality, the color choices, and the price. If you need ribbon, I recommend them!

The Hilton of New Bern A+
They were fantastic. They were organized from the very beginning, and came through on our wedding day. The food was hot and delicious. All of the employees were so nice.They even gave us a free taste testing a few months prior to the wedding which was great. They were easy to keep in touch with, and reassured that they would have everything handled and they did! They are a little on the pricey side, but for us it was worth it. They are located on the water, which is great also for anyone who wants a view!
