I stopped by the Meadow convention center recently and the place is gorgeous. Has anyone been there lately? How’s the food? And what’s the layout like for a reception—is the florist coming from one of those big hotels?? Also, does anyone know if they have openings on 9/11 or 9/18 for up to 120 people...

Also, I need a solid DJ who can actually handle mixing a bunch of different styles without crashing and burning!!

Or maybe just a decent, budget-friendly band 🙂 nothing crazy, I'm keeping it modest 😉

Sinclair, Lisijak... send me their info and rates... also looking for photo recs... Thanks everyone... Can't wait to get this whole thing sorted...

Roger Gray37 said:So, I was wondering if anyone here has had any actual experience with the Volar band over in California.

Based on what we’ve seen on their website, they seem pretty incredible...

Alex Carter3 said:I have to agree.😉

That space is really only meant for maybe 120 people. I mean, if you're planning a decent party... not some chaotic disaster like a crowded nightclub in downtown Chicago where you've got twenty people crammed into every square meter.

Hey everyone, I’ve been lurking in this PDF for a while now without really jumping in, but I’m reaching out because I could use some help. A friend of mine is getting married next September, and she’s starting to plan everything since the venue, photographer, and band usually need to be booked a year in advance. For the venue, she picked Dollis in Austin, but she’s still undecided on the photographer and the band. I was wondering if anyone could recommend some solid bands or photo studios that haven't received any complaints on this thread... Regarding photography, she knows people have praised California and IN, but are there any other good options under $1,500 (not someone like photo Mark 😢)? Also, does anyone have a specific recommendation for a photographer and videographer within those studios?
As for the band—they’re looking for a group that can play both American and international rock. They want a sound that isn't too "foreign" or niche, but they also want to be able to play some local hits (just nothing like Thompson, Elvis Presley, Spears, or Joel, etc.). Ideally, the price stays under $2,000; I don't think they intend to go over that budget..
Thanks so much... 😍

Well, there’s plenty of time left. Any decent band will play whatever you want, and they shouldn't play anything you explicitly tell them to avoid. Personally, I think a "taxi band" or maybe Pink Panther might work for her; they have more of a rock vibe but they’re excellent, especially Taxi. You can find their page on Facebook, and when they have gigs at local bars, she should go hear them live. Plus, the price should fit right under that $2,000 mark. There are plenty of good photographers out there, though I'm not sure about that specific price range. She should check out Weddingstudio IN or California; both are quite good. Everything else tends to be more expensive than that. Hope that helps... Good luck!!!😉

Aaron Patel15 said:Ladies (and guys, if you're lurking), I'm assuming this question has been asked a million times already, but the threads are getting so massive it’s impossible to find anything. I need to know where to get the best deals on automotive tint film (the organdy stuff) for detailing cars and bumpers, plus some plastic wrap for baking. Any leads? Thanks!
