Beautiful site, great & extensive menu, reasonable price. This place does not do the typical "wedding package" which means that you can pick and choose what you would like, rather than having to fit into a box. It also means that you can spend anywhere from $25 a person to $100 a person (we spent about $60). Sophisticated Farmhouse setting makes for some beautiful photos.

Flowers were beautiful and she did a great job decorating the reception hall with a mix of her rentals and my additions. The price was great too; It seems that most of my friends spent at least twice as much for almost the same amount of flowers. I couldn't stop staring at our unity candle arrangement because it was so beautiful!

The service was very good overall, but sometimes I felt rushed when I was talking to her. I would have liked a more structured consultation where she asked questions to get to know my style, rather than simply asking "what do you want".

We loved this place! Martine was one of our favorite people to work with throughout the entire planning process and the cake was gorgeous! We ordered a fairly simple design, but it was still stunning and they can do so much more. You must visit their showroom to see what they are capable of. I also took my bridesmaids and the mothers to High Tea the day before the wedding and it was lots of fun (although we all left with a serious sugar rush).

Berni Bridals is a little shop in the cute village of skippack. She sells a lot of Casablanca dresses, which is what led me to her. She works by appointment only and her shop is not very big, but she will treat you like you are her only customer and she has beautiful dresses to try. She is an amazing seamstress with many, many years of experience. She made my dress and my mother's dress fit like a glove and she can make any kind of alteration you could imagine.

They provided a lot of paperwork to fill out to make sure that you were getting exactly the kind of music you wanted. They also have extensive song lists online, so you could almost choose every song you'd like them to play all night. We did not get the main DJ, and the guy we got was a little shy which meant that he didn't announce everything as enthusiastically as we would have liked. I would try to book them as early as possible to make sure you get your pick of DJ's.
