Get Social With Long Island Weddings
My venue told me that as we get closer to my date, like 2-3 months out, that we will meet with the maitre d' and go over all the details. But I had some generic questions after signing the contract that I just... >>>

We found these cute little lovebird salt & pepper shakers. We're also having a candy bar and a photobooth. I'm not doing frames for the photobooth, though, because I don't want to overdo it.
I was looking for something like this! I'm so upset I won't be able to make it to either one. Hopefully they have more in the future.
I had my engagement party at Westbury Manor, and I thought the food was fantastic. There was another event going on at the same time, but they stagger them so that it doesn't seem too hectic. My guests never... >>>

Can you send me quotes for anne demarco?
Just went to a wedding there in July. We had a great time! Food was yummy too! As far as I know the bride had no problems with them
Congrats ladies!!! Almost onto February brides!
Since you're a westbury manor bride - did westbury manor contact you when it was time to do the cake or did you reach out to Francesco's bakery yourself and just go there and pick your cake out?
I'm using Flowers by Brian...they were great and they will work with whatever your budget is!
Can you send me pricing?
Can you send me the quote as well?
Very pretty! :) congrats on your check!

Congratulations! Such a big check!

Alterations by Gina in Deer Park is a big favorite. A lot of brides have had bridesmaids and even wedding gowns altered there with great results.

Hi ladies,Does anyone have recommendations of where I can get alterations done for a BM dress? And how much does it cost?Thanks!
No picture but I'm glad it went great since I hear makeup is a hard vendor to book!
Awesome check!
Congrats on the check! so exciting
ordered my wedding gown today!! im so excited!!! I bought mine and the bridesmaid dresses from Fantasia Bridals in Rocky Point, they were SOOO helpful and sweet, I would definitely recommend going there :)
I was just in her office today. I already had my invitations but would have used her if I didnt. I'll be using her for my thank yous. Her and her assistant are lovely.
Wow! I didn't realize it took so long!!
I was thinking the same thing. I ordered my dress March 6th and still no phone call. :(
Wow it's starting to feel so real now.
So exciting!! Once the invites are put I'm sure it's really real!
I just had my makeup trial with Pamela sue makeup and I just needed to rave about her. She is so friendly, interesting and an amazing makeup artist. She listened to what I wanted and did a great job with it.... >>>
Yummy! Congrats
We went there today! It's so much fun.
Such a pain that it takes so long.
Nice! I get lost in that place all the time. It's a bit of an addiction.
My dress took 8 months ordered it January it came in August.
Magnetstreet is pretty reasonable. Zazzle, vistaprint - check them all for promo codes and you could get a pretty great price
I ordered mine in May and it's not in yet. They had said up to 10 months though (bc a small boutique). I talked to her right after christmas and it was set so ship the first week of Jan so I should be getting... >>>
Big checks, ladies! It's getting down to the details now! Ahhh.
Me too, please ?
great job!
Congrats Brides!!!!!! Have an amazing perfect day!!!
Hi I saw you had a quote for Jessica leigh! Do you mind giving me your quite? Thanks!!
I'm doing flowers in mason jars, but I will be doing every other row (mostly to save $$)
Nice job! I like the flower girl basket!
I would just do the center aisle...Every row is nice but if you want to save $ then do every other row and maybe put that money towards flowers where you will be standing.
Everything looks great!

I'm not sure how many events westbury does at one time but I've heard crest hollow can have like 4 events going on at once
I'm doing them but not going crazy, just a few snacks and a schedule of the weekend.
Ive been to both many times. Westbury Manor is quality food..Crest Hollow is commercial food. You cant compare the 2.

Getting things done!!Hotel bags, card box, flip-flop basket!
Definitely Black Dahlia. I've never seen nicer flowers than the ones they made for my wedding.
