Vendors

I don't have all of my vendors quite yet, but I'll keep adding to this page as I get more.

Photography

We're going with Todd of Bentley & Wilson for photography.  He does some really beautiful work and is very often used by LV brides on The Knot, and in all of my hundreds of hours of reading other brides' reviews, I've never heard a bad word about him (AND his prices can't be beat!).  He's been super responsive so far.

Ceremony/Reception

I'm just going with the in-house wedding coordinator at Mandalay Bay-- hopefully I won't need any additional day-of coordination.  My ceremony coordinator was Richelle (who I loved!) but just got changed to Jaimie (who I don't really know yet...time will tell, fingers crossed that she's good!).  

I'm going through Mandalay Bay Catering for my reception as well...our contact, Chetan, was SUPER nice when we went on our scouting trip and answered all of our questions.  Apparently we can't formally book the reception until 9-12 months out, so I'm quite nervous about that part...crossing my fingers he'll be just as good moving forward, once we nail things down (fingers crossed).

Dress

Got my Casablanca Couture dress from Letitia's Bridals in Monsey, NY (near where my parents live--keeping my dress there until the wedding as I have no room for it in our tiny SF apartment).  The ladies who work here are FABULOUS...let me try on about 15 dresses and were super patient with me when I had a nervous breakdown and had to come back to try on my dress the day after I bought it to make sure it was "the one."  I am all kinds of crazy.
