I'm Married!!!! 7-18 Atlantica beach review!!!!

Hi all!!!!
I can't believe my day is over and so is my HM. The day couldn't have gone any better. I know everyone says it's the best day but it truly was!!! I was so overcome with joy and happiness.

So here goes...

1. The weather...beautiful for Atlantica which I give an A!!!....slighlty overcast but the sun kept peeking through. We had the ceremony outside on the sand and it was perfect!!!! Judy was my matre'de and she was incredibly helpful!!!! I had an extended cocktail hour which was great the food was outstanding...a raw bar with ice sculpture, keab station, pasta and a tuscan table. I would NOT recommend the tuscan table, ginny (the owner) described it being full of fresh breads and cheeses and various breads...it was almost empty with tiny silver tiered trays not worth the money...I should have gotten a carving station. Otherwise they were helpful and curteous..My guest couldn't stop raving about how gorgeous and classy it was...and how great the food was.

2. Flowers B ...Flower Garden in Port Jeff Holl was amazing!!! She hand made this beautful arch that we stood under for our vows. It was natural and even the centerpieces were stick baskets!!!! My b-k was pink and white callies..(James Cresse told me they didn't make pink!!!) with bare grass. My only problem was that I asked for hot pink and yellow in the centerpieces and even showed her pictures..however they were purple and yellow. thank god I'm not picky...because they still looked awesome!!! Honestly I was so happy that they could have been brown and I wouldn't have noticed.

Here's a link to some pics that my friends sent me...and then I'll finish my review

I just noticed how bad I look in some of those pics...I hope the proofs are better than the guest's pics. So speaking of photographers...

Drew Anthony Photography AMAZING!!!!! He is a friend of our family and he was wonderful he usually works for Kauffman studios but also has his own studio on the side. He and Pedro were awesome. I barely knew they were there. When we first met him he said not to worry that with the small wedding 50 poeple, 500 pics would be plenty..well half way though he came up to me in the bridal room and said, Jess it's over the 500, what do you want to do...I told him to keep shooting and we'll settle later. He said that the scenery and the beach shots (joe and I walked down alone) he couldn't stop snapping. I can't wait to see the pics!!! everyone commented how great they were and how they seemed to be everywhere all at once!

Band :After midnight...Frank Sergant (another family friend) great outdoor band..jazzy, frank sinatra type. We had a blast!!! conversational music as we asked for and then some mototwn and jaz to pump it up..I couldn't have been happier!!!

oh and I only changed into flip flops after an hour...my heels were killing me but it was the best decision ever!!!!

Dress...Bridal reflections carle place F*****!!!!! I hated them!!! the dress you saw was not my dress from them...I had to buy it even aftre the screwed it up!!!! So that dress...which I love amazing enough is from Pzaz in centereach...and it was a steal!!!!
Joe's clothes we bought at banana republic... I love linen!!!
