Thanks for the review Santina!!!!
I met with Kelly yesterday. SHe is so nice!
Anyway, I wanted to know if anyone is using Russo's in house vendors. The pirces that Kelly quoted were pretty high in comparison to others. My sister and cousin are both getting married and between all three of us we've seen plenty vendors and prices.
Does anyone have any feedback on their vendors. I would really appreciate it.
How was your experience with Kelly? Everyone has told me to meet with her but I really don't know what to ask her. I would love some advice on how to dress up the room and what accents I could add but I don't know if that's her area. Is she there to just help with vendors or do you think I could meet with her for questions on decorating and other related stuff?

Santina ~ When I went to meet with her, it was basically about what vendors they recommend... She is very nice and helpful..As far as decorations~ She told me when it gets closer to the date, then we can go over everything...Hope this helps~Stephanie

Thanks for the input Stephanie. I figured that's what would happen if I went to meet with her. I already have all of my major vendors booked so I don't think I need help in that dept. What I do need help with is decorations, colors etc...I have a basic idea of what I want but since she's seen hundreds of weddings in the Tivoli room I thought she might be able to give me some advice but like she told u I guess I'll just wait a few months til the wedding gets closer. thanks again

Been there...still here! This wedding planning has turned me into the most indecisive person ever! I usually NEVER ask for opinions. I like what I like and that's it. When it comes to this wedding planning I'm just stumped!

Re: <3 Official Russo's on the Bay Thread <3
We went to Russo's last night to finalize my sons party, I was overwhelmed with how perfect everything was handled. When we were leaving Ann handed us a silver tray filled with cookies and a handwritten thank you note.Little things like this are the things you remember most. I'm so upset now that we werent able to book them for our wedding, they were booked for 2 years for our date
I'm so freakin excited for this party
