Hacienda Vargas is an adorable little bed and breakfast. It has a charming rustic, New Mexican atmosphere. The price was very reasonable and the owners, Cynthia and Richard, were very accomodating and flexible. They didn't have all of the restrictions that many other venues have such as a specific caterer, type of music, etc. They helped out so much in making sure that our ceremony and reception went as smoothly as possible. The only negative thing I have to say about this venue is that they are not exactly child friendly. So if you have a lot of rowdy little kids who will be attending your wedding, be sure to appoint someone to watch after them. Other than that, I highly recommend this venue.

I was very happy with this business. The price was very reasonable compared to other string bands in the area and the manager, Karl, was very attentive and responsive. The musicians performed beatifully at my ceremony, and the music was a great touch to the atmosphere we were going for. I could not have been more satisfied with Giovanni String Quartet.

Jennifer West is a very talental hair and makeup artist. She incorporated my ideas on how I wanted to look on my wedding day with her own special touch, and the end product was better than I could have ever imagined. She was absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend her.

The only thing I bought at David's Bridal was my hair pin. I think I may have gone there on one of the busiest days of the season, so it was hard to find someone to get the hair pin I wanted from the back. It was a little more than I wanted to pay, but after searching for a few months for one I gave in and got the expensive one. Other than that, the salespeople (when I finally tracked one down) were very nice and helpful.

After many months of looking, I found the perfect set of earrings to go with my wedding dress at Nordstrom. They have a great collection of jewelry at decent prices.
