Weddingbee boards

Hair/makeup: I found an on-location hair and makeup artist for $175 for both hair and makeup +$75 for trial.. is this a good price? Anyone have a salon recommendation in the Roswell area?

DJ: I've talked a few people, but really am looking for someone who knows music well and isn't just going to play "typical" wedding music.  My fiance and I were thinking along the lines of indie dream pop and old school dance classics a la beach house, joanna newsom, stereolab, mixed in with jackson five and stevie wonder.  I know it's sort of an odd request, but can anybody help out here? 

Flowers: was thinking of doing the diy route but not sure if that's going to be way too much work.  What are your suggestions for good wholesalers or affordable wedding florists?

Thanks atlanta bees!

here's a list of vendors we used and we loved them

hair and makeup - spencer malay

dj - http://www.lethalrhythms.com/index.aspx (they're probably the best in the South)

-Blossoms Atlanta - http://blossomsatlanta.com/

-DGL Designs - http://www.dgldesigns.com/

-2000 AD - http://2000adinc.com/ (they really try to work within your budget)

also if you're okay with having silk flowers rather than real flowers i have a friend who started up a silk flower business, and it's very affordable

whoa that was a lot of stuff.  hope that was helpful!

Just wanted to update this post with the vendors I ended up using!

Flowers - went with peonies inc.  Jacki was awesome and the flowers turned out AMAZING!  They ended up being about the same price as DIY and SO much less stressful and more beautiful.  Seriously though, the flowers were gorgeous and EXACTLY what I wanted. Total was about $900 including 16 centerpieces, 6 bridesmaids bouquets, my bouquet, bouts and corsages for the groom/smen and family, aisle markers, a custom hanging billy-ball backdrop, and setup/delivery.  She was a breeze to work with too. PM me for pictures.  

Makeup - went with Rachael from faceofmakeup.  She came to our house and did a great job - airbrush makeup, false eyelashes plus hair all for $175 for me and $125 for the bridesmaids.  The makeup was a little more dramatic than I'd wanted originally (I told her I wanted a more natural look) but it ended up turning out pretty nice for the pictures. 

DJ - went with DJ Joycette (aka Joyce Russell), who was a friend of one of my bridesmaids.  She usually plays shows in Augusta, GA and south carolina, but came to roswell for our wedding and did a FANTASTIC job.  Also set up mics for the ceremony even though she was only playing the reception.  She was $50 an hour (we did 5 hours) plus travel and setup. pm me for her contact info.
