Photographers

I called just about all of the photographers that were recommended to me and some that I found online and most are booked for October 7th. I was able to make an appointment with two studios that have availability:

-Saffron Studios in Bridewater (so not looking forward to that drive on Monday)http://www.saffronstudio.com/home.php
-Celebration Studios in Hoboken (meeting them on Tuesday)

I am also going to make an appointment with the friend of a friend from my previous post:

Finally, I am going to look into this Journalism Professor at NYU that was recommended to me:

One of these people have to work out, I just know it :-) I did send another message to Angela, my original prospect, about meeting up one last time. Will keep ya posted.

Photography update

I forgot to add this to my previous post so here goes:

I got an e-mail from Angela on Friday night saying that she would need to reschedule to June 3rd (sigh). A friend of my mom's brother-in-law wants to do our photography but I am not to certain about him because he has like 4 different jobs and its really a hobby for him not a career. My mother is going to call her friend to find out how he felt about his wedding pictures since this guy did them as well. So there you have it...still no photographer.

It's really my fault because I did not investigate the cost ahead when I was budgeting the wedding so I had no idea that established wedding photographers will run you $4,000! So I need to figure out if I want to wait it out with Angela but I am going to keep looking until then or if I am going to find a way to come up with another $2k to have some more options.
