As Kim Hayes Photography’s 2nd Shooter, I get to do a lot of talking to vendors and wedding planners.  I try to make quick connections with the lead people and let them know that we will help them in any way we can.  We have the opportunity to work in some awesome venues, with great people and eat some good food too!  I have been wanting to blog about some of the best venues and vendors that we have worked with in the last couple of years so here goes.

Venues:
Fossil Creek Golf Course: www.thegolfclubatfossilcreek.com
The staff at Fossil Creek was great to work with.  Their inside wedding space is very nice.  Beautiful windows over looking the golf course.  It looks like there is enough space outside to have a small intimate wedding as well.  The food was good as well.

Clark Gardens: www.clarkgardens.org
Clark Gardens is a beautiful botanic garden venue.  They have a quaint chapel and several outdoor garden spaces that are great for weddings. There are so many places to take pictures there that its crazy!

Marty Leonard Chapel: www.lenapopehome.org/marty-leonard-chapel
This is a nice chapel that has great architecture.  The lighting makes for great pictures indoors and out.

McDavid Studio: www.basshall.com/mcdavidStudio.jspMcDavid Studio is a great place for a wedding or reception.  

DJ: www.mydallasdj.comMy favorite DJ of all times is Tony Battle DJ/Dancer. He will get out there and teach your friends and family how to dance. We had a great time working with him.

Caterers:Carabas Italian does a great job catering Italian Food.

Del Norte Tacos: www.delnortetacos.com/
Has some of the best Tex-Mex I have ever eaten.  They make the BEST tamales I have ever put in my mouth and I love good tamales.

Bumble Bee Occasions: www.bumblebeeoccasions.com
Sharon Mazanec and her husband can do EVERYTHING if you so chose.  She is a great caterer, florist and decorator, he runs the bar and they have a great staff of high school students.

Kim and I are so very blessed to have some of the best clients in the world to work with!  If you are looking for a wedding planner, DJ, venue or caterer please take the time to check these wonderful people and places out!
