We chose Enchanted Celebrations based upon a recommendation from another couple who used their services for their wedding day. Jen came to our house for an in home consultation, and she explained everything in detail, answering any questions we... had. She crafted a contract for us based upon our need; a photographer for the full day, a second photographer for 3 hours, photo booth for our reception, as well as some other items such as canvas prints and albums.
Once we signed the contract, we began working with Alissa – she sent us monthly emails to ensure we stayed on top of our planning. We chose Alex as our main photographer and we couldn’t be happier with our choice!!!!! Alex was there the entire day of our wedding, from about 10:30 am till the end of our reception! He came eager and with a great attitude, despite our wedding being his 4th of the weekend! Alex worked with the bridesmaids and groomsmen separately in the morning, then coordinated our first look and all formal and family photos at a separate location, covered the ceremony at the church, and then finally our reception! Alex was professional, punctual, and knew how to give us direction without being overbearing! He was also very receptive to any shots we were interested in taking. You could see his enthusiasm shine through when he got the exact shot he wanted, with the background, lighting etc. When he was excited about a photo he would give us a quick look at the camera, which we both appreciated!
Additionally, we had David S. as our second photographer, who covered the church ceremony, our cocktail hour, and a portion of our reception. We got to the church fairly early and David helped us to sneak in a few pictures outside on the church grounds before our guests arrived.
At our reception, we also had a photo booth and an attendant to make sure everything ran smoothly. The photo booth was a big hit with our guests, who were able to keep a photo strip for themselves, and a second copy was put into a book where they could write us a little message. This book of photo strips was a part of our contract, however we feel this fell a bit short of expectations. The book felt extremely cheap and the organization of the photos on the pages was non – existent. If you are looking to have this as keepsake, we would suggest buying your own album and paper inserts.
It took just under a month to get our pictures back (all 3,500 of them!!) and we can truly say it was worth the wait! We are looking forward to getting some loose prints, our canvas photos and our wedding album!
