    Hey Ladies,

    I am new to this and believe it or not my wedding date is 11/28/10 and everything was all so sudden, we just got engaged on June 20th and my parents do not want a long engagement so we are getting married in November in CT. So I was looking for some assistance from you guys for any suggestions to pick out vendors.

    Any CT brides out there with any DJ and Photographer suggestions?

    Thanks so much

    Shilpa

    Okay. I don't know that area well, so I am sorry I can't be of much help with specifics :-( Maybe check out Connecticut Bride magazine or ask La Renaissance if they have a list of preferred vendors who they've worked with in the past. You could also ask La Renaissance to give you contact info from past couples and get in touch with them to ask about their vendors.

    Sorry I can't be more help. But congrats and best of luck!

    @shilpajain: Np!  I know DJ Vinny is local to Fairfield County but will travel and he also can MC if you need.  If you need other reco's for photographer, let me know.  My friend is doing my photo's and he is with this group below.  He is not listed, but affiliated.

    Let me know if you need more suggestions.  GOOD LUCK!!

    Hey Ladies,

    I need some assistance to find someone to do Mehndi, my make up and hair in the CT area.

    Any suggestions?

    I just got married in CT at the end of July.  We had an American/Indian fusion wedding.  Here are the vendors we used:

    DJ Azad (NY) - He was really good!  He played the music for the ceremony and the reception.  He created such a great atmosphere for us and our guests. http://www.djazad.com

    Sarah Edwards Photography (MA) - She was awesome!  She brought a second shooter as well who was equally amazing.  The pictures came out amazing.  You can look at our pictures on her blog if you want to http://edwardsphotodesign.com/

    Jamilah Henna Creations (CT) - She did my bridal mehndi and she was really good too.  I loved how my henna turned out.  The design was beautiful and  it came it so dark!  She was very reasonably priced too.  http://www.jamilahhennacreations.com

    Modern Mehndi (CT)   - Colleen and her colleague did the mehdni for our mehndi party and they were excellent.  They had two or three books of designs and they both worked very quickly.  All my friends loved their designs.

    Ivette Wellman (CT) - She did my makeup and she did such a fantastic job.  She was super niceand she really listened to what I was looking for with my makeup.  I got so many compliments.  She uses airbrush makeup and it really looked flawless.  It felt like I wasn't even wearing any makeup and it stayed on all night.  http://www.ivettewellman.com/

    Hope this helps!
