Remember how I was excited about the three vendors that I found at the bridal show on Sunday? Well I received an email from the guitarist (GP) last night and even though he thought he was free, he has something booked that afternoon so he won’t be able to play at our ceremony and cocktail hour. L He did give me suggestions of some other classical guitarists that he knows and recommends, but I checked one guy’s rates and instead of $475 (what GP would charge), this other guy would cost almost $1000 to play both the ceremony and the rehearsal. YIKES! So now CP and I are back looking for a musician….
The other potentially bad news is that the cake maker also has something the same day of our wedding. WTF? Hopefully we are able to work something out with him though. The vendor is a husband and wife so maybe one of them can go to the other event and the other can drop off the cake at our wedding.
This is getting frustrating!!! And we haven’t been able to find a photographer that we love just yet either. *Sigh*

We haven't even started looking at vendors yet, and Chris and I are already stressing about availability. Since the specific date we chose has special meaning for Chris and her family, it's pretty inflexible. She's pretty afraid that we're going to find someone (or something) that we "can't" do without and we'll be forced to choose between it and the date.
I feel for you...even if I haven't done it yet.
We found our Spanish Guitars through a recommendation. And because we came by referral, they offered us a discount (we didn't even have to ask). Call the recommended guitarist and see what they have to say ... they just might be willing to work with your budget!
Hang in there. I can't tell you how many vendors we went through before finding the ones. You've got time and will find people who are right for you!
Ha, so I was going to leave a comment but then Tony had already left the exact one I was going to. So you get only...sympathy. I'm sorry. :(
