Dr. Heidrick is a family practice doctor. It can be difficult to get in to see him if you call for a same-day appointment with him personally, but you can set up an appointment always within a day or two (or see a nurse practitioner right away if you do need an appointment right away). As an osteopath, he is trained to treat the whole person and not just the medical condition or symptoms and is a good listener. Waiting times can be a little longer because he takes his time with each patient. His office is very convenient because it also houses a pharmacy, PAL lab facility, and a radiology unit.

This restaurant is a sister restaurant to The Fish Hopper (read my review of The Fish Hopper here: http://www.judysbook.com/members/13223/posts/2006/10/476403/ ) and is locally owned and operated. They also feature award winning clam chowder here, which is what we ordered for a yummy lunch a la bread bowl (try their free sample while you walk down Fisherman’s Wharf). They are also open for dinner. Of course the fresh seafood is their specialty, but they also have pasta and steak if you’re a bit tired of the sea fare. Seats by the window have views of harbor seals, sea otters, and sea birds during the day. Score some coupons for a free appetizer by visiting the Convention & Visitors Bureau (adjacent to the Wharf area) before your meal.

This is a fun locally owned and operated restaurant located right on Cannery Row. It’s right on the Bay so you can look out and enjoy the ocean view during the daytime while you enjoy your meal of award winning clam chowder or fresh seafood (they have other entrees if you are not into seafood or have a picky eater in your group). If you’re looking for a romantic restaurant to share a pleasant dinner they have an indoor fire pit and fireplace to warm up the sea air – they also have the coast by the restaurant lit with lights so you can watch the waves crash below you. We had our infant with us and they were very accommodating.

A lot of people recommend this place to get wedding dress alterations done. I had my wedding dress done here. I wanted a permanent bustle on the back of my dress and they were able to create that for me from photographs and how I described it. The original owner has since sold the store to her employees, but they do the same great work. The store is decorated kind of funny inside, but the work speaks for itself. The dressing rooms are just walls and a curtain. In addition to wedding alterations they also do regular clothes too. Prices are average.

This is a good general alterations store that also does wedding dress alterations (and also mother of the bride dresses, bridesmaid dresses, etc.). The inside of the shop is very neat and clean and they have dressing rooms with doors (not just a curtained room). I have had multiple items altered here and they have always done an excellent job with all of them. They are experienced working with a variety of materials and can do rush orders for an additional charge if necessary. Their prices are average.

Jolene’s is a great place to find matching fancy dresses for little girls – flower girls and junior bridesmaids. A lot of the dresses are machine washable too, which is wonderful if you are going to have some infants dressed up to match the wedding party. Jolene’s is a lot less expensive than other baby boutiques is and they usually have some good sales (one is usually around Education Week at Brigham Young University). Most of their dresses for infants come with a diaper cover and often come with headbands. It can be difficult to find matching fancy dresses for infants and older girls so this is definitely worth a visit!

If your groom, groomsmen, or father of the bride or groom isn’t planning on renting formal tuxedos or you’re just looking for a very specific wedding color in a tie that the rental shop just doesn’t carry – try Tie One On in the University Mall. It’s a very small store, but they have a huge selection because the ties are hanging from the ceiling to the floor. Most of the ties are “adult-sized” so you might have to go elsewhere for the ring bearer’s tie. They primarily stock traditional ties that you have to knot, but they also have zipper ties and clip-ons. In addition to the huge selection of colors, they also have novelty ties with cartoons and holiday and other theme ties. The staff is great about helping you locate just what you’re looking for.

If you are clever you can get supplies here to make and decorate your own cake! They also have a lot of candy making supplies if you want to make a sweet treat for favors for your attendants or the wedding guests at the reception as place favors. They have candy molds, chocolate melts, cake toppers, foil to wrap candies in, food color/dye, candy additives like crisped rice and caramel, etc. The staff is really good about suggesting ideas or offering help. The store is located just off of Madison, but is behind some stores that face the street (you will need to enter the parking lot to actually see the store’s sign). Another plus? It is right next to a men’s formal wear rental place so you can stop in there and see what they have at the same time!

Everybody loves chocolate and strawberries and what a way to indulge your guests at your wedding reception or for a special snack for your beloved on the big day (or honeymoon?!). Shari’s Berries makes all kinds of chocolate covered strawberries. I love their cute ones decorated to look like tuxedos with dark and white chocolate (they have some that they make to compliment the tuxedos to look like bridal gowns too in white chocolate). Be prepared to pay extra for this special treat though – they don’t come cheap. Another good tip is to eat them pretty quickly (within a day or two at most) if you get them. Any longer and they won’t be any good, the strawberries get mushy covered in the chocolate.
