We havent gotten our link yet, they said no later than this afternoon. I can't wait to view it. I'm glad to hear you like yours.

 

Sophia, don't stress about the photography now. Its really not bad, but just make sure you have them explain to you when you are to view them.

 

I brought my dress on the plane, and they hung it for me in the closet. Im sure it wont be a problem, they just cant promise you anything ahead of time.

Sophia,

 

Every airline is different, I flew US Air and they were really nice the first flight had a closet and they let me stick it in there however the second flight was willing to put it in a closet if they actually had one, so I had to put it in the overhead which is fine as long as you watch it, I had some idiot shove something right on top of me dress!!

 

Yes there is the option to have your dress steamed its $80 and steaming it will not shrink it.

I spoke with Ileana yesterday.  I am so excited to use her.  All of the pictures are so beautiful.  How far in advance did anyone put their deposit down? 

Thanks

We are definitely getting the video.  We are not having any guests.  We want to be able to share with our families.

I am going with the BB package.  No video is included.  What package/style has anyone gone with?

Melissa, we put our deposit down with TI a year before our wedding, I wanted to make sure we got her specifically so we booked her right away

 

We went with the seaside serenade theme which comes with 12 free photos and a free DVD right now

Just to chime in, we don't hold dates for anyone until a deposit is paid.  It's first deposit come first booked.  I know we had a bride here a while back that thought that by talking to us, we were "holding" her date and was surprised when the photographer she wanted was already booked.    You can choose your photographer when paying your deposit and that is locked on the calender (as long as they are not already booked).  We do have brides on the books for 2012 already and we've had quite a few dates this year already that everyone is booked, so when you place your deposit is up to you but if you want to book someone in particular sooner is better than later.   However all of our photographers have been with us for more than 6-7 years, are all friends (actually 3 of them bought houses next door to each other LOL) and we make sure we do continuing classes and master classes with them trying to challenge them.  We're a pretty tight bunch!

Jenna -  Your pictures are beautiful.  I love your dress that you had for the TTD.  Who is the designer?

Hi,

Thank you for chiming in with all the information.  I did realize that a deposit is needed for the date.  I just wanted to know how quickly vendors needed to be booked. 

It sounds like you have a very close group.  That is always nice to see. 

I will be sending in my deposit and contract soon.
