You know when you hire WDO Photography that you’ll get top-of-the-line photography but how do you know what florist to trust or what DJ to hire? Over the years We’ve come to know many wedding vendors and learned who does a good job and who to avoid. We won’t bad mouth any business here and we don’t expect anyone to just take our word for it – we encourage you to meet with the following vendors, look up reviews online, and choose carefully.
The vendors listed below are not listed in any order – for more information about our specific experience with any of these vendors please contact us.
DJ’s
You’r The Star – I’ve have a long term relationship with Ruth and Bob from You’r The Star. They are very professional and very affordable. They have all the equipment you could ask for from lighting to wireless microphones for speeches. They have loads of digital songs and can provide any song you could ask for.
They always meet with their couples and are very thorough. Bob and Ruth also do Karaoke which allows them to offer an even wider selection of songs. They don’t currently have a website but they can be reached at 724 495-1653 or at yourthestar@comcast.net

Leone’s Flowers and Gifts - Leone’s is a great little shop that can do some amazing work with flowers. You’ll also find great prices and a real dedication to customer service. You can find a contact form on the bridal flower section of Leone’s website here: http://www.leonesflorist.com/
Limousines
Executive Transportation Service – If you are planning on any type of limo you should give my pal Ed Carter a call at 412-716-7873.
