I am back-My May 25th Wedding review ( long),Hawaiian Honeymoon to follow
I have missed these boards and I am glad to be back. My wedding day was the best day of my life. I know I read that same line everytime there is a review but now I really know that it is true. It was everything that I wished it to be and then some.It was flawless!! The weather could have been a little better but what are you going to do!!!
Anyway here is my review:
Oceanside Jewish Center: A+++++++
For any jewish bride out there, President caterers did a phenominal job--From the ceremony to the coctail hour to the main event. Everything was perfect. The caterers themselves even commented to my parents the next day that my wedding was the best wedding they had in years. Nothing went wrong.
Ok-the food from what I hear was phenominal-- ( I could not eat a thing that day). the hits were the sushi bar, the mediterranean station( hummas, babaganoush, falafel, etc), and the baby lamb chops were the hit. I was glad we added these things!!! The main courses were incredible 4 to choose from and not one complaint!!!. They also went around to everyone and asked if anyone wanted seconds. My friends could not believe they did that,. They had never seen that happen at a wedding before!!!
The viennese table was great everything you could think of. Boy did we have leftovers after. and the biggest hit and what I suggest to anyone who has their wedding at OJC or EAST Meadow is the Bakery to go. This is in the foyer when people leave and they have bagels, donuts muffins, zeppole's, hot pretzels and stuff for people to take with them on there way out. We had baggies made up that said 'Sweet Dreams', Hillary and Ron. People were stunned!!! It is so worth the extra money and very deliscious too.
The mairtre d was great when she showed up. I thought she was supposed to be there when I started to get dressed before pictures but she didn't show up until we started pictures. SO my mom and I had to get me into my dress. Other than that eveything was great. You can forum email me for more info if needed.
Renegade- A++++++
What can I say except for Sensational!!! Everything that you hear about this LI Paramount Band is true and then some!!! They are so energetic and played continuosly all night. I think the first set was over an hour long!!! Everyone was on the dance floor all night and the head singer is antastic he actually sounds like the artists. I highly recommend them, If they have your date open book them immediately!!!!
Master's Florist- A+++++
Michael, the owner did a phenominal job. People are still talking. I know alot of girls have not heard of him he is not used that much on these boards but give him a chance. He does phenominal work and will work with you. Everything that I asked for in my arrangements he did- from the suspended huppah with make believe poles ( drapes to look like poles) with lights, to the suspended arrangements down the aisle in the synogogue( I hate when you can't see the ceremony because flowers were in the way) to the beautiful centerpieces he made up for me in the dining room. OH and the centerpieces broke away so everyone went home with some flowers. HOpefully soon I will have pictures for you.
Visual Image Photography-- A++++++
They were great. We used the owner, Dennis who I highly recommend. He made everyone feel great and kept everyone laughing. Now I can't wait to actually see the proofs.
Lida Video- A++++
From what I saw at the wedding he was filming everything that needed to be filmed. I will have to wait for the end result.
Kathy from Self Image Salon-- A++++++
SHe had been doing my mom's hair for years and I started going to her in JAnuary. MY hair couldn't have looked better. She did exactly what I wanted. Half up and half down. forum email me for more info..
Lisa from St. Onge Cosmetics Cactus Salon Plainview-A+++++
Lisa has been doing my makeup for all of my major events in my life since I was 13 years old. She outdid herself this time. My makeup was flawless. and so was my mother's.
I highly recommend her.
I think that is it for now. I will post a different review of my Hawaiian Honeymoon--which was fantastic!!!!
