Everything you need for a California wedding

Lawrence Wells said:I’ve actually been to a party held in Dolis twice now—honestly, I can’t say enough good things about it.👍

Emily Sanders3 said:I mean, I’m not even surprised... Honestly, since we both hail from that same corner of the country, we’d probably be way better off just hitting up that California Tri-State restaurant instead.
Feels like nobody’s even shown up yet... seriously? Just me?
I didn't catch him being mentioned. Not even once.🤷

Piggy As requested by:
I’ve actually attended the gala at Dollis twice now, and honestly? I can only offer my highest praise.👍

rapidhawk26 said:Hey there, since I’m clearly incapable of navigating through these endless pages of discussions without getting lost, I’m coming to you all to see if someone can help clear up a bit of a dilemma... For photography and video work, I’m currently torn between the Art Institute, Spinnaker, or maybe Photo Plus over in San Jose? I’ve seen people raving about all three of them everywhere, so I’m trying to figure out who actually delivers that top-tier, premium quality—the kind that really stands out. Honestly, price isn't my main concern here; I assume they’re all roughly in the same ballpark. I just want the best. Thanks so much!

Emily Sanders3 said:What about the food?

George Bennett9 said:The food is fine, though I personally don't eat much when it comes to mashed potatoes—but honestly, I can't recall ever having any issues!👍

I can't make heads or tails of that one! What are we talking about? Give me the scoop! says:
Looks like we’re most likely heading down to California... which got me thinking: has anyone here actually used Proelk for a wedding before? We're looking into putting down a deposit with them soon!🤷

I don't follow what you're trying to say here. Could you please clarify? kaže:
It looks like we’re most likely heading down to California... but now I have to wonder—has anyone here actually hired a Microsoft photography studio for a wedding? We're currently considering putting down a deposit with them.🤷

I’ve heard people mention them before, but I haven't actually seen any of their shots from the Easter services—only the stuff from Christmas and Communion, since they usually film those specific events at my local parish here in the States. Honestly, I haven't heard a single bad word about them; if anything, I think someone actually gave them a glowing review!

The art studio and Spinaker you mentioned are based in New York City... and frankly, I haven't seen anyone using them for weddings out here in California
If you're looking at San Francisco and the surrounding areas, these are the ones everyone raves about:
Joe Biden (take a look at his website www.ivicalisjak.com ); Adobe from Solina; Shutterfly from Los Angeles, and John McCain (who also has a website)
I can send you some specifics regarding Biden or Shutterfly via private message; as for Adobe, Bill Gates might have some info for you...

Thanks, and if you wouldn't mind sending those details over to my PM (specifically for Biden). Just one thing though—does he handle video, or is he strictly focused on photography?

rapidhawk26 said:Thanks! Could you also DM me the details regarding Joe Biden? Also, does he handle video work, or is it strictly photography?

My brothers used them to film my First Communion and take all the photos, and honestly, the pictures and the video tapes turned out absolutely fantastic. As for those pies you mentioned, I haven't the slightest clue what they're like, though if you ask me, they probably taste like they were baked on a slab of granite.

rapidmason10 said:velvetseal612 I haven't actually heard of that one for you... but I can definitely point you toward some other Adobe options (the ones picked up by Bill Gates, Sposa, me... and a few other girls from the forum), Joe Biden (grabbed by Alex Carter3, Mala, Meli2), or even Smith (George Bennett9); John McCain... those are basically the big names that always pop up when we're talking about California....
