Bridal Concierge
Welcome to Peter Indorf Jewelers Bridal Concierge service.
Our goal is to provide resources to the bride and groom to make their wedding the best it can be. To provide a place for brides to find local resources for their wedding and simplify the planning of a wedding. For brides to share their experiences about bridal vendors and offer reviews to other brides to be, all in one convenient place.
Criteria for vendors:
Vendors will be the very best at what they do, located along the shoreline and in the New Haven area. These are local vendors we know from past experience and referrals from brides.
What we offer the bridal vendor:
Vendors will have their own free listing; your logo, one image of your choice, a 50-word description of your product or service, and contact information.
Brides will be able to blog about their experiences with various vendors and offer tips and experiences to other brides to be. We will have a photo gallery of brides and grooms on their wedding day in the photo section.
These are some of the main categories we are looking to fill. If you know of someone you can recommend, please let me know at peter@peterindorf.com.

Have your cake and eat it kind of a dillema. What should today’s grooms do? Have a expensive reception or save for a home? I would take the second any day
