All we can say is that we are extremely happy we picked Main Events for our wedding. From the moment we decided to go with you up to the wedding everything was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!!!!

To the photographers: Michelle and Renee! Renee the guys had a blast with you and the pictures are awesome. Thank you. Now to Michelle thank you so much for everything you knew how to keep me calm and not cry like crazy even though we were running like an hour late and it was about to rain!!!!! Every moment was perfect especially when you put my garder on for me. Haha.

Jeremy: The video is perfect. As I watched it I didnt realize you were around at all times yet I felt like I never saw you which made the most natural and beautiful video clips!

And to the DJ: Bob! What can we say! Not only did we get married but We got my father to Dance!!!!!!!!!! Every song you picked was just right.
All together Main Events captured every perfect moment of our Big Day!!!!!

Thank you all so much! We love you!

Thank you for being part of our Special Day,
Gary and Cristi Arriaza

Ryan & Jaime Gover - 1/3/09 - Crystal Lake

We would like to say thank you, but those two words do not express our gratitude for everything the entire staff contributed to our wedding. Truly and honestly, our wedding day could not have been more perfect and a lot of it had to do with us having Main Event there. From noon until 10 o’clock that night, Renee, Jen, Jeremy and Kenny were all so nice and seemed happy to be there and be part of our day.

We are completely in love with our pictures and cannot tell you the number of times we have looked through the hundreds of them. Obviously we want to remember our wedding day forever, so the beautiful pictures and wonderful video will be the perfect way for this to happen. The video was great and picked up all of the things that we missed during the very busy day. We are very happy we chose to have a videographer and look forward to watching our amazing DVD for many years to come. We also never even noticed Renee or Jen taking all of the pictures or Jeremy shooting the video pretty much the whole time. Kenny did a fantastic job as our DJ. During our meetings with you before the wedding, we were told that one thing that you take pride in is having people up and dancing from between the meal courses being served, to the very end of the night, and you did not disappoint. There were people on the dance floor the entire night and that was something that was very important to us.

Having everyone from the same company was very convenient and only helped the flow of the evening and how everyone worked with each other. We have had so much feedback on how much fun people had at our wedding and how beautiful our pictures came out. We have already recommended your company to some people planning their wedding and you will always be the only company we tell people to go to.

So again, thank you so much for everything and we are beyond happy with all that you provided us.

Ryan & Kaitlyn Suchanek - Indian Pond CC - 7/11/08

This is much overdue, but better late than never right?!! I do not even know where to start or how to thank you and your staff enough!!! Here it is 7 months later and people are still talking about "how awesome our DJ and photographers were"!!!

Michelle, you couldn't have been a more perfect fit for working with my bridal party. You had all of us laughing and enjoying ourselves the entire time! As for the other photographers and videographer, they captured everything the entire night! They were all over the dance floor capturing it all for us. We cannot thank you all enough. Lately we have been to a few other weddings, and nobody compares to you guys! It makes it that much clearer to see that you guys are one of a kind! One more thing I cannot forget to mention is that if it was not for Michelle, my bussel would have been wrong all night! Thank you for fixing my gown not many photographers I know would be able to do that!!

Bob, you were the best DJ, you played everything we wanted to hear and had people on the dance floor the entire night. That is exactly what we wanted for our wedding day is people up and enjoying themselves and your staff made it happen. Ryan and myself did not leave the dance floor once and it was all because of you playing exactly what we wanted. Thank you!

Jeremy, our wedding video is beautiful. What an amazing job you did and we have watched with friends and family and they all comment on what a job you did. Thank you. Overall, our day was more than perfect and we will never forget the services your staff provided. You helped make our day memorable and simply a day we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We would recommend you and your staff to anyone.

Sandra & Nicholas Mesolella - 11/15/08 - West Valley Inn

We just wanted to Thank You again for the wonderful job you did with the photography the day of our wedding. Not only were the pictures amazing, but you also made it a fun experience for everyone involved. Our family & friends loved the pictures, not to mention had commented on how great you were with everyone that day. We have and will continue to recommend you guys to anyone looking for a wedding photographer as you really are the best! Thanks again!

 
 
Chris and Meg Rodzen - 12/27/08

Hi Bob,

Well this is long overdue. But as promised, we'd be happy to recommend you to anyone getting married. We are already telling all our friends with upcoming weddings to contact you guys. Main Event Weddings was originally providing all three of their services for December 2009 wedding. When Chris and I decided to forget that idea and get married in 10 days, they were one of our first phone calls. Our DJ and videographer were available for our new date. Even though they did not have a photographer available, they went out of their way to help us find a new one. Upon hearing our news, Bob was on vacation with his family for the holiday season. He responded to our inquiries and questions immediately. He got on a conference call with us to make sure he knew all the details and review our song selections with us.

On the day of our wedding, our videographers was professional and did an incredible job capturing our day. The final product was everything we wanted, and we're so grateful he was available. Bob, our DJ, was the hit of the party! He had our family and friends out dancing from the cocktail reception to the end of the night, we thought our family would never leave! Everyone at our wedding asked what company we had gone through to get him, even the staff at our venue started asking for their own friends. Bob did a tremendous job of keeping us moving the evening along, but was sure to treat us like the "Main Event" of the evening. I highly recommend Bob and Main Event Weddings, we can't thank them enough for such a phenomenal job on our perfect day!

 
Michael & Beth Goodspeed - Hyatt Regency Newport - June 21, 2008

Thank You: Dear Main Event Wedddings especially Bob, Renee, Justin and Derrick,


Thank you all so much for everything you did for us on our wedding day!! Everything went so smoothly and we couldnt be happier. The picures were beautiful and captured every moment perfectly. The video still brings tears to my eyes!!
Renee was my "Jill of all trades"!! Not only did she show me how to flaunt my "ta tas" and take wonderful pictures but she also helped me get in my dress, fix a clasp on my dress and calmed my nerves!! I couldnt have asked for anything more!!!! Justin also did an excellent job with the boys!!!

Bob Ballou got everyone up on the dance floor and really was an excellent DJ!!! We received so many compliments on what a great DJ we had and we couldnt be more thankful. Derick did an amazing job with our video and captured all of our special moments.

We are looking forward to picking out our pictures for the album and to relive the whole experience again!
We would recommend you to anyone!! Keep up the good work :)

Love
Beth and Mike Goodspeed

 
Karen Bellavance - Blithewold Director of Special Events

We were contacted by Karen to put toghether a video that represented the many exquisite features of Blithewold. They are now using it as part of their sales which will featured on their updated website and marketing. All images and production were supplied by Main Event.

Here's what Karen has to say. Hi Bob, HAPPY NEW YEAR! I love the DVD and have been showing it to all of my appointments. Is
there anyway I can reproduce it to send along with my brochure. I am also going to put it on our website but have been put off by my
executive director as we are changing webmasters. I hope you get lots of work from the demo. You're the best and are on the top of my list for referrals.

Mr and Mrs Mark Sexton - Whispering Pines - August 10, 2008

Bob and Michelle

This thank you is long overdue! Our wedding day was great! We were blessed with great weather (dry in the 80's) and an amazing photographer, videographer and DJ. We couldn't have asked for a better group of people to make our wedding day memorable! Manny, Eric and Kenny were fantastic and fun! People danced all night long and our friends and family are still talking about the awesome music. Manny and Eric were a blast and truly captured our individual personalities in the pictures and videos. We can't thank them enough and would recommend Mainevent to anyone getting married. Bob and Michelle were so helpful each time I spoke with them and the on-line planning features are convenient and easy to use.

Thank you for documenting our wedding day and capturing our laughter and love!

Jodie and Mark Sexton


Nate & Jen Moore - 12 Acres Smithfield - 8/16/08
Dear Bob, Michelle, and Jeremy,

You guys were the absolute best decision that we made for our wedding day! Thank you so much for making it everything that it could possibly be. We are so appreciative of your expertise, creativity, and the personal touch that you each brought to the day!

Michelle, you were a perfect match for our wedding party crew and knew just how to get the best out of each one of us with your humor and anything-goes style! You were helpful and fun from the beginning of the day when we were getting dressed to the very last moments of the night. We had such a great time taking pictures and loved all of your creative ideas for different shots. We cannot wait to see all the memorable moments that you captured from the day!

Bob, the music was awesome! You played just what we had hoped to hear and did such an amazing job getting the crowd up and dancing all night long! We knew that we had a dancing crowd, but could only hope that the dance floor would be packed until the end of the night. You really know how to keep the crowd going! So many of our guests have commented about how awesome you were. Having bartended at many weddings before, I know from experience that the DJ makes the wedding. I must say that you are the best I’ve heard!

Jeremy, we cannot wait to see the video! We were never really sure that we wanted to video the wedding, thinking that we’d have a camera in front of us at all times. That was not the case at all! We are so thankful and appreciative of your creative, yet subtle style. We know that you captured every moment of our day, but most of the time we didn’t even know you were there! You were exactly what we were hoping for in a videographer!

We are so grateful for our amazing experience with all of you at Main Event. After working with you for two family weddings within a month of each other, we feel like we’ve know you forever! You are so easy and fun to work with. We can’t thank you enough for everything! We certainly will recommend you to all of our family and friends!

Jenn and Nate Moore

Mr and Mrs Gary Mathieu - 8/2/08 - Venice Restaurant, Westerly

Dear Michelle,

We are absolutely blown away by the photographs of our wedding day! You truly are a skilled artist. Manny and Jeremy were great too! All of the details of our special day were beautifully captured. We received so many compliments about you all from our wedding party and our guests.

You truly know what’s important to your clients and do your best to deliver. We really wanted to have photographs taken by the beach and unfortunately a thunderstorm passed through during the day. But you tracked the storm on your phone and sent us to the beach just as the weather cleared up so that we would get the shots we wanted. Now that is dedication!

There are so many decisions to make when you are planning a wedding. From the moment we met with you and Bob back in February, we felt completely secure in our decision to select your company to photograph and video the moments of our special day. Your extensive experience, professionalism and fun, down-to-earth personalities made us feel comfortable and at ease. I will definitely recommend you to brides in the future. Thanks again for your great work!

Mr & Mrs Michael Gualtieri - Crystal Lake - 7/12/08

Hi Bob and Michelle,

Thank you so much for everything. We could not be happier with the services- it truly made our wedding day and celebration complete! The pictures and video came out beautifully, and we have had a lot of fun going through them all. They will be treasures forever! The DJ was great, we had so many complements on the music that was played, and that it was quiet enough during dinner time. So many of our family complains about how DJs play music too loud during dinner, so we asked him to keep it quiet and he did! He was very receptive to our wishes and was extremely easy to work with. Having all three services through one vendor made our lives very easy, and it certainly did not mean that we lost any quality! It was so great that we could do everything online since we were planning this all out of state - the website was well planned and you both were easy to talk to on the phone and plan things from out of town- thanks!

Thank so much for the wonderful jobs you did in helping capture the moments of the best day of our life!

Ellen and Mike Gualtieri

 
Mr and Mrs Jeff Molles - Warwick CC - 7/26/08

Dear Bob & Michelle,

You guys are amazing! Both of your efforts and work contributed to a fun and gorgeous day full of romance!

We really appreciate your youth, fresh outlook, creativity, hard work and just fun personalities, that made our wedding truly special!

You guys are fast too - your work will be highly recommended to all our friends! You became part of our families! We love you and thanks again!

Jeff and Elitsa Molles :)

 
Mr & Mrs Derek DeSousa - Pawtuckett CC - 5/24/08
Dear Bob, Michelle, and Jeremy,

Our sincerest apologies for not writing this sooner, life after a wedding got in the way! We wanted to show our utmost appreciation and give our thanks to the best photographer, DJ, and videographer we could have ever asked for and worked with. Not only was your work amazing, but your personalities, professionalism, and presence really helped guide everyone smoothly through a potentially stressful day. To be honest, with you around and running the show, we didn't even know what stress meant that day!

Michelle, thank you for your humor, your patience, and for putting me particularly at ease. You made me (and Derek, too!) feel absolutely beautiful with your photographs. Everyone loved you and thought you were amazing! We can't wait to see your work in our wedding album.

Bob, thank you for getting everyone to party! To this day, our families still rave about you and how you managed to get everyone on the dance floor! We absolutely can't thank you enough for participating with our guests and for making our wedding reception the party no one can stop talking about!

And Jeremy, thank you for your beautiful video. We have watched it multiple times and can't stop commenting on the editing and the quality. And to think, we almost forgot you were there because you were so quiet!

Overall, we can't thank Main Event enough. This thank you was well-deserved and then some. We tell everyone we know who is engaged about you and we hope it pays off for you! Thanks!!


Sincerely,
Derek and Kelly DeSousa
 
Mr and Mrs Brian Martin - Crystal Lake -7/19/08
Hi Bob and Michelle

Wow! I am so happy we went with Main Event. Your staff did such a nice job! Renee was unbelievable. She was helpful, always there, yet, I never even knew she was there. Derek was great with the video. He was cracking jokes and really easy to be around. Bobby was very thorough and did a super job with all the individual touches we wanted. The dance floor was packed all night and my slideshow went perfectly! It was such an amazing day and both Brian and I had such a good time!!


Thanks again for everything! Looking forward to seeing you and Michelle at Jenn's wedding at Twelve Acres in a few weeks!

Mr & Mrs Chris Tramaglini - 7/18/08 - Hyatt Regency Newport

To THE most wonderful DJ and Photographer:

Bob and Michelle - you two were not only there to make our day special, but you put your personality into everything which made our guests fall in love with your work as much and Chris and I did.

Words aren't enough to express how happy we are with your services... but we'll do our best to gloat (you know how much we like to talk - haha) about how much we enjoyed working with you both as well as Hailey and Jason.

Chris and I have been together for so long, that we become very silly at times... hopefully we gave you some romantic moments on camera!

Thank you for going above and beyond your services to make sure we were happy (and Michelle, thank you for getting me into my dress and helping with my hair!).

We shall remember you fondly.

All the best,
Chris & Jen Tramaglini

(Ta-ta's to Ta-ta's!! Loved that!)

Oh and we are happy to announce that the newest addition to the extended family held off until the Monday after our wedding... we are so excited to be an Uncle and Aunt for the first time! MOH Trish and BM Bill have a bouncing baby boy!

 
Mr and Mrs Timothy Seveney - 4/12/08 - McGovern’s Fall River
Dear Bob, Michelle and the entire Main Event team,

April 12th 2008, McGoverns on the Water in Fall River Massachussetts. Alot happened that day. There was a wedding, a reception, clouds, rain, family and friends. As the couple geting married, we were a little stressed, a little distracted and a little pulled in different directions to see everything happening.

That is why looking back on everything- the DVDs, the photos, the entire experience- that my wife, myself and our families cannot believe the job you did. You must have been everywhere at once. It was obvious from our first meeting at the Wedding Show in Newport, to our sit down meeting at your house a month later that you were professional. It was only after using your web page did I realize the stress free enviroment you were trying to create for your customers, but the real icing on our wedding planning cake was the wedding day. The special care that you, Michelle and everyone on your team took to ensure us the most possibly stress free day. Your scheduling to ensure us time with family and guests, your ability to keep the party going at the reception, it was so obvious the pride you and your team took in caring for the details so everyone else could enjoy the day. I have no idea how to express in words the feeling that freedom gave us.

From the moment you lined my pockets with Hershey Kisses at the Newport Wedding Show at Rosecliff to the shipment of our pictures and DVD's there has never been a moment that we were not impressed.

Thank You,

Timothy and Robyn Seveney
 
Mr and Mrs Chris Cutler - 6/28/08 - Crowne Plaza Warwick
Dear Bob and Michelle,

We feel terrible that we did not write this earlier but felt as though you guys should know how much you made our day. People have not stopped talking about how much fun they had at the wedding and how professional all of your services were.

Bob the music and atmosphere was awsome. People could not get over that everyone was dancing before the salad came out and did not stop all night. The music selection was awsome and you really got everyone going and we thank you for that.

Michelle you made everyone feel very relaxed during the photos and I am sure that the two of you got some great shots that we are not even aware of because you guys were everywhere. I have never been part of a wedding where you could barely see the photographer and videographer but knew they were capturing it all. Also thank you for putting up with all of the requests for certain pictures ot be recreated from a certain brother's wedding (no names mentioned).

Again thank you guys so much for making our day so special and giving our guests "the best wedding they have been to" as many said it was. Please pass our thanks onto the rest of the crew that was part of the wedding. Thanks beyond words!!!!!


Chris and Jen Cutler
 
Mr and Mrs James & Kristin Dozois - 7/19/08 - Eastons First Beach Rotunda - Newport, RI -

Dearest Bob & Michelle,
I have a few minutes in the middle of all the family gatherings still celebrating the big day, and just had to write you a quick note to thank you both (as well as Jen and Jeremy) for making out wedding day so amazing. All of our guests can't stop talking about how perfect the music was.. really you just made the night.. and Michelle.. the whole bridal party just loved you.. u were so wonderful to work with. From the first time we met the two of you we had a great feeling about you... we knew things would be awesome and you exceeded our expectations!

Like I said.. just a quick note.. as the excitement still has not slowed down.

You guys are the best and we have nothing but rave reviews about your guys.. so if you ever need any referrals ... don't hesitate to let us know :)

Kris & Jim :)

 
Mr and Mrs Richard Hedenberg - 6/21/08 - Providence Biltmore

Bob and Michelle,

Rick and I cannot begin to find the words to thank the both of you and your staff. Thanks to the amazing work you all did, we had the most incredible, almost indescribable wedding day – it so far surpassed everything we ever hoped it would be and you were a HUGE reason for that! We knew from the moment that we first met with you that you had the perfect personalities to compliment our thoughts and ideas about our wedding. What we didn't know was that you would transform those dreams and ideas into a reality that blew our expectations out of the water.

The tone of the cocktail hour, dinner and reception that Bob set was exactly as we had hoped. The mood was relaxing when it should have been, and as the night progressed, we were so excited to see that the dance floor was ALWAYS full! Over a month has gone by and we are constantly getting phone calls from our guests about how incredible the DJ and the music were!

It's hard to decide whether Michelle's photography skills or her amazing personality and knowledge of everything-wedding was more valuable. There is no doubt that both were such absolute assets to us and to the wedding party and were all greatly appreciated. I cannot thank you enough for making all of us feel so at ease and carefree!

We are both sincerely grateful for our experience with you and your staff. I could not have asked for a better or nicer team of professionals to work with on such a special occasion. Rick and I have never felt so well taken care, not once having to worry about anything. We hope that we have the opportunity to repay you for all of your hard work by referring your services to others – please don't hesitate to ask if you ever need a reference!!! Once again, a HUGE thank you!!!

Most Sincerely,

Rick and Alicia Hedenberg
P.S. I will forever remember to "pop my ta-tas" when being photographed! :-)

 
Mr and Mrs Michael McCabe - 5/31/08 - Crystal Lake

Dear Bobby, Michelle, Renee and Jeremy,

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I do not even know where to start! The photography for both our engagement and wedding photos is fantastic, every special momment was captured. The video vignette has brought tears to the eyes of everyone that has viewed it. Last but certainly not least... Bobby everyone is still "buzzing" about how great the music was and you had everyone on the dance floor all night long! You had the dance floor packed during dinner!!!!
You are all so easy and fun to work with, we never had to worry about anything. What a great team! Your talent has certainly exceeded our imagination! Thank you for taking so much pride into making our memories truly amazing, we will treasure them forever. We will see you soon!

Thank you for helping us make our day special!

Dear Manny, and Jeremy

My wife and I would like to thank you whole heartedly for the handling of our pictures and videography. Your passion and vision is seen in the artwork that you provided.

Mr and Mrs Travis Sharp - Ocean Cliff - April 5, 2008

Dear Bob & Michelle,

Kristin and I want to thank you and your staff so much for the way you handled our wedding. You were so easy to work with, which took so much weight off our shoulders that day. We couldnt have been happier with the music, and your easy going attitude. Michelle was awesome for the photos. We can't wait to see the photos and video.

Thanks so much,

Sincerely,

Kristin and Travis Sharp

Dear Bob and Michelle,

Thank you very much for making our wedding a special one! You two are an amazing team and we are very thankful for you both and for all you both did for us! We had an amazing day and you captured it perfectly! Thank you for a fabulous introduction and for keeping people out on the dance floor. Thank you also for the awesome picture that you sent to us. Your thoughtfulness and generosity are very much appreciated! Thank you for all your hard work, attention to detail and for being so much fun!

Happy Holidays Rachael and Brian

 
Jeremy & Melissa Dominick - 10/6/07 - Pawtuckett Country Club, RI
Bob and Michelle,

Melissa and I are now getting back from our honeymoon and getting our lives on track after absorbing all the sun Hawaii had to offer. We wanted to write sooner, however....well...you know how that goes. We were going to e-mail you right before we left for the airport and were still buzzing on how awesome the wedding was, but...well...you know how that goes.

However, now that we're home and settled, we needed to send you a BIG, HUGE, INDESCRIBABLE THANK YOU!!!!!!! We knew we were going to love working with you from the start but we didn't realize how talented you really were.

You were more than just photographers, djs and videographers at our wedding. We had no idea how versatile Michelle was, from taking pictures, to sewing Melissa into her dress, to fixing my brothers' snafu with the runner at the church, you were there for us every step of the way. It was great watching Jeremy work seamlessly with Michelle. They certainly made a great team. Bob, you did an awesome job of getting our family and friends on the dance floor! I don't think my brothers sat down through one song. You were awesome at getting people to dance during the usual down time at dinner. And, of course, another huge thank you for helping us work out our dream entrance for our first dance and the introductions! The bridal party really got into it. We think it turned out great in the end. We received so many complements on the music, even people saying that they don't usually dance at weddings, however, they couldn't help themselves at ours. ...(continued under picture)

ri wedding photographer

We had so many complements from our family and friends about your professionalism and everything that you did during the day. Everyone was giving us complements on how great everything was. You really fit into the scene with our guests - we barely noticed that you were there during our personal moments. We simply don't know how to thank you for everything - you guys really helped make the day special.

If you ever need a reference from past clients for any future clients, don't hesitate to send along our contact information! We would recommend you guys to anyone looking for your services!

Thanks so much for everything. We can't wait to see the video and pictures!
Jeremy and Melissa

 
Matt and Jocie Colletti - 9/8/07 - Aldrich Mansion

Aldrich Mansion - Warwick RI

Hi!

Just wanted to say quickly before we take off for Turks and Caicos that we had an amazing time last night!!! The majority of it is thanks to Michelle, Bob and your entire staff. We couldn't have asked for better or nicer people to document our wedding day. I cannot stop obsessing over the picture. The color, the shot, everything! It is simply stunning and we are so excited to see what is to come! We had a rather large brunch at Matt's parents' house today and you guys were the talk of the town!!! Everyone could not stop talking about how wonderful, nice, professional, and just attentive you all were. Tell Bob he is everyone's favorite DJ and you are their favorite photographer, and I mean that honestly and truly.

We can't wait to see you again in 2 weeks at Rachael's and Brian's wedding!!!
Jocie and Matt

John & Denise Oliveira - 5/07/07 - Ocean Cliff, Newport, RI

Michelle,

You and your team captured our day perfectly. Our Pictures are amazing. I'm really looking forward to creating our album! All of our guests (and some vendors) really liked seeing the slideshow online and could'nt believe how quick it was up.

Our video is great too! A few people commented that they didnt realize we were having a video done- that's how unobtrusive it was!

Thank you so much for all of your hard work, professionalism and attention to detail.

Feel free to use us as a referral

Hello Bob and Michelle - we just saw the first of your work on Kelan and Joe's wedding (14 July) and the video with my music behind it. We are ecstatic! The subtle composition of Michelle's work throughout gives us the sense we had at the wedding itself. No 'stiff' stills but great candids and shots that capture elements of the day that seem to give us the sense of the event from start to finish.

We have advised our friends (one as you know is already planning to use your services) - there is a significant difference between your artful work and any others we have seen. Bob was equally supportive during the event - I was thrilled with the sound support and his control of the event. A great party and you guys made a major contribution.

Thanks,
Michael P. Balogh (Brides Father)

 
Jay and Kristin Parker - 1/13/07 - Ocean Cliff - Newport, RI

Posted from email thank you's from kristin and her father

From Kristins Father "Mark Sjoberg "

"Bob & Michelle:

Thank you so much for your courtesies and talents in making Kristin & Jay's wedding a joyous event. Kristin told me before they left on their honeymoon cruise that her dream wedding had come true.

Michelle, you put everyone at ease, making it an enjoyable time to share as the events of the day unflolded. Knowing the personalities, it could have been an anxious time - it was anything but. When you saw Kristin upset at the prospect of leaving Bailey, you captured their special relationship with pictures. We're dying to see them.

Bob, the party was non-stop. Everyone had a ball. It was wonderful to see four generations on the dance floor together. You could literally see the pressures of the day melt away as Kristin & Jay celebrated among their family and friends.

It's hard to believe that all we have now are memories of the event we planned for so long. You not only helped create the moments but memorialized them for us as well. We can't thank you enough and we're looking forward to the next phase.

As an aside, four of our guests are contemplating their daughter's weddings within the next two years. They each asked for a referral, which I was pleased to give.

From Kristin (The Bride)

Bob & Michelle,

I just wanted to drop you a quick email and let you know how appreciative I am of the wonderful job you both did for Jay and I. Our music and photos were everything we hoped for and expected from such talented people as you. THANK YOU!

PS...Michelle~ Where do I go from here with the album? I LOVE what you did for the album, it's beautiful..maybe just adding a grandparents page and a page with the kids. I just got back from our trip so I haven't even really had a chance to sit down and pour through everything, but I like what you did so far and would probably just add to it...if that's ok? Do I just give you a general idea and you run with it or do you want specific pictures that Jay and I like? How much time do I have to let you know? Also, can anyone order prints from you? Jay's mom showed interest, I know my parents will order, and, of course, Jay and I will, too. I just didn't know if we all could do it online and the prices and orders would still be separate. (Lots of questions...I'm sorry and THANKS AGAIN!)

Bob and Michelle,

I wanted to let you know how pleased Eric and I were with our team that you sent for our wedding.

Derek, Kenny, Manny, Eric were all great.

They all have fantastic personalities and I am so glad they were assigned to us.

We would recommend this team to anyone looking for your services. We will use your services again.

Looking forward to seeing our pictures and video.

Hi Michelle and Bob,

I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how awesome Saturday was! Renee, Manny and Derek didn't skip a beat they were on top of everything! I can't wait to see the pictures!!!

I had several people comment about the whole team and several thought Bob was the greatest DJ. I'll have to get cards from you, I have a lot of friends with kids that will be getting married in the next few years.

It was a beautiful day, Jill was of course thee most beautifull bride ever (I'm not partial though!) Eric also did not look to shabby. They were a beautiful couple.
Thank you again for helping make the day even more special!

Hi Michelle and Bob,

Things have been so incredibly busy that we did not get a chance to write you with feedback on the albums!! We absolutely loved them (and so did our parents)--- Not to mention the fact that you hand delivered them the day before Christmas!! That was an incredibly special gift and we cannot thank you enough for going out of your way for us! Throughout this entire process you have been wonderfully professional, responsive, and sensitive to our desire to capture all of the special moments from our wedding. ALL of the pictures are truly gorgeous and really portray the love and happiness that everyone felt on that day!! Thanks, again, for everything.

All our best,

Liz and Brian Deschene :0)

Michelle and Bob,

You know we had a blast at our wedding and we can certainly attribute much of that to you both. Bob, the music was great. Everyone raved that our wedding was the best one of the summer - and after a summer where many friends and relative had attended a minimum of 3 other weddings, we were sooooo glad that ours really stuck out. Our video is awesome. It's so fun to see everyone dancing and having a great time, and I do not regret that we spent money to record the day. I was torn about that, but in the end, am really happy that we can now watch our wedding whenever we want to. Michelle, there are so many photos we hardly know which to pick. We love that they are online and that you sent us the CD so we can print as many as we want to. I really should get cracking on the coffee table album that I want, but with so many pictures, it's going to take a while.

Your personalities are infectious and made the day spectacular. Thank you for all your help and hard work.

Kristine and Jonathan Miller

 
From Mark & Alli - 10/22/05 - Westin Hotel
 
The words "Thank You!" cannot say enough for what Bobby, Michelle and Jeremy did for us on our wedding day. If you are looking for professionalism, personalization and dedication, you have made the right decision with choosing Main Event for the most important day of your lives. The quality of the finished product of the photos and video are unbelievable. The music during the reception was second to none. You should be extremely confident in your decision to work with Main Event, knowing that you have picked THE best vendor in the entire state. Both Bobby and Michelle were always available for us to discuss the smallest detail and have gone way out of their way to give us exactly what we wanted and needed! Really, after your day is over, you will know exactly what we mean when we say, "From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for capturing the memories we will have for the rest of our lives!" Best of Luck! ~Mark and Alli Bloom 10/22/2005!
