Another update. We booked DJ Gaza for the cocktail hour/reception. He is a former NYC club DJ from Brooklyn. I insisted on a DJ that can actually mix and was impressed with his ability. Obviously, it’s going to be a different agenda but he is able to mix from various genres especially reggae and hip hop. We also booked the St. Joseph’s in Bronxville, NY. It’s the nicest church I have ever attended which is not surprising given the income level. We also are close on a photographer/videographer (Thomas Paul). We have 2 photographers for 11 hours doing mostly photojournalism with some portraits. We plan to have 5 ppl total taking photos/video. We don’t plan to put any cameras on the table but provide a way for people to upload their own photos (most people have cameras) to my website. PICS! Also, a bonus picture of Crystal holding some BIG ASS FLUFFY cat ![http://www.ShawnAugust.Com/PICS/WEDDING/CHURCH/StJosephBronxvilleNY-1.jpg](http://www.ShawnAugust.Com/PICS/WEDDING/CHURCH/StJosephBronxvilleNY-1.jpg) ![http://www.ShawnAugust.Com/PICS/WEDDING/CHURCH/StJosephBronxvilleNY-2.jpg](http://www.ShawnAugust.Com/PICS/WEDDING/CHURCH/StJosephBronxvilleNY-2.jpg) ![http://www.ShawnAugust.Com/PICS/CRYSTAL/MISC/CrystalWithMrBig.jpg](http://www.ShawnAugust.Com/PICS/CRYSTAL/MISC/CrystalWithMrBig.jpg) ---

So, we booked the photographer and videographer today. We have 2 photographers and 2 videographers. I guess I have these people following me around from the moment I wake up for about 12 hours. Given, I read my Blackberry in the shitter for a while, I hope he doesn’t expect to take pics. We also booked the hotel. We have 80 rooms+ blocked off nearby and have shuttle service for guests. I got a rate of $129 which is CRAZY down here for ALL suites. Full kitchen and a living around with two couches. Crystal will have their big suite which is like 700 SQ FT so that her and the girls can get ready. I am going to stay at home as I like my own bed. We have a _24_ person Hummer. I got a RIDICULOUS deal that I couldn’t pass. It’s got 31 TVs, a VIP section in the back for bridge/groom, fog machine, strobe lights, mirrored ceiling, full bar, marbel floors, 22" RIMS, etc. It’s ridiculous and totally unnecessary. I really don’t want anyone driving anyone on Memorial Day weekend after drinking especially around here. No one has an excuse not to really live it up. Next up, florist and lightening. Also, the budget is like gone. Crystal changed it like 10 times anyhow. For the record, weddings are a way for you to get completely fucked. If you are aware of this, you will be better off. I am stimulatin’ the economy 0bama style y0 ---

Thats less than the "deal’ they gave us in suburban PA for rooms with just king beds. :banghead _highfive_ Yea, $129 _WITH_ free parking and breakfast. We got 3 rooms upgraded to suite for the price of $129. No comped rooms. Given they can easily fill it without me, I understand. Trust me, I was very surprised. Make sure you have no financial committment on your end. A lot of these places wanted me to pay for the unused block of rooms. Also, I hope you are negotiating. You can always squeeze money. ---

It adds up. Consider this: $6K ring $30K wedding (average) $8K honeymoon (10-12 days) $44K I’d say that’s about average. It’s easy to go $50-100K. ---

yeah we got a real good deal on the reception! so we saved alot there, and the photographer is a frien of the family who only wants food, and she knows a videographer who is helping out. i bet we saved 10-15g right there between all!
