MUSIC
MR &
MRS DJ
MrMrsDJ.com
This
husband and wife DJ team does more than play music, they make your
reception a memorable party your guests will be talking about for
years. Really. Their sound is incredible.
They have dramatic lighting and personalities to match. If you're
looking for a DJ who plays background music and can't understand
why your guests won't dance to Kenny G, look elsewhere. If you want
a team that will keep your party hopping and considers your reception
a reflection of themselves and their business, seek Mr and Mrs DJ
out immediately.

Bobbie's true strength is in her experience. My first wedding with Bobbie was held in 2002. Though an experienced photojournalist, I knew very little about wedding protocol and client expectation. Bobbie artfully orchestrated what was to be one of the largest events I have ever photographed, easily winning over every vendor at the event with her no-nonsense approach. Bobbie manages to run a tight ship for her clients while maintaining friendships with those responsible for making the event a success. I consider Bobbie a good friend and highly recommend her services.

VIDEO
TRUE VIDEO
Contact: Brian Caiazza

http://truevideo.biz
I've found that working alongside a video service can at times be very challenging. Some services direct couples through their wedding in a way that interferes with the natural flow of events. This obviously conflicts with my goal to document, rather than coax. The folks at True Video and I work extremely well together, making them an easy referral. They are a very respectful, talented group of professionals. Highly recommended.

Jana's work is extraordinary. Recently, her work at a large reception literally caused guests to gasp when they entered the room. The bride's reaction was that of a client whose wedding day dreams had just been fully realized. Highly recommended.

I met Don at a wedding recently while he was singing, playing keyboard and horn almost simultaneously! No kidding! He blended perfectly into the background during a cocktail hour before dinner. Although his music was fun and easy on the ears, it was his friendly personality that stole the show!

Nothing beats the sound of bagpipes playing as a Bride and Groom are introduced to their guests for the first time.

CAKES
A PIECE OF CAKE

Contact: Brian Hotopp
www.shortnorthpieceofcake.com
These guys are located in the same building as my gallery. Though I have to admit that I've never tasted one of their wedding cakes I have gained 5 pounds in the past 8 months grazing on their amazing pastries. Brian is extremely friendly and the staff always seems happy to be there. Wouldn't you be? Stop in during a hop or after lunch but don't look for me, I'm on a diet :)
CARA'S CAKES
cevan3@columbus.rr.com
Great-tasting cake at the best prices in town. Cara's cake prices start at $2.95 per slice for butter cream icing.
When a bride calls, Cara makes a tasting appointment for her and her fiancé. She presents two different types of cakes for them to taste. During the appointment, the bride usually brings pictures or has ideas on what she wants for cake design. Cara offers photographs of recent work to expertly help decide what might be best for her wedding.
On wedding day, Cara delivers the cake and, for a small fee, will also arrange flowers on the cake if the bride wishes.
Additionally Cara does a one year anniversary cake free of charge if the bride calls two weeks prior to the anniversary. (Beats tasting a freezer burned cake!)
