1/31 wedding review

I can't believe it's all over. Everything went really awesome. No problems. OK - here is my review - and here is a link for the pics (don't know how to make it a direct link)

Bridal Suite of Centereach - A+(my dress)
From beginning to end I had nothing but good experiences with them. I heard a few bad stories about alterations there and was a little nervous - but the lady who did my alterations was so nice and made sure that I felt comfortable and was happy with the way the dress felt.

Carmella's Bridal - A+(bridemaids & flowergirls dresses)
Carmella is the sweetest woman ever. She is so accomidating and will get you any dress that you want - even if you don't see it in her shop. I would of used her for my dress but I already ordered it when I came across this shop. I highly recommend people in the huntington area to go there.

After Hours Tux - A
They were good - the only mishap was my FIL shirt didn't fit and he needed to get a different one. Other then that - everyone looked great

M&V limo - B+
The only reason that I give them a B is because the driver of the Escalade limo was not helping my bridal party in and out of the car - my brother had to yell at him and then he started to. Other then that - my driver was awesome (38 caddy) - The cars were ontime and looked great.

Tri-County flea market (forgot the name of the booth) - A+
I got my jewlery, the girls jewlery and my headpiece and veil from there and everything was great and the prices were awesome and the lady was really nice - I will find out what booth it was and edit this.

Flower Michele - A++
Gave them an extra + because they were my favorite vendor. John was sooooo awesome and nice. Everyone raved over the flowers. They were so beautiful. I can't say enough about them!!

LI Sounds - B+
They were good - they kept everyone on the dance floor all night. They only reason I didn't give them an A is because i wanted them to play a few specific songs and they didn't play all of them - only some - but it's ok because everyone was dancing the whole night.

Marco Photo & Video - A+
Marco is so great. He makes everyone laugh and have such a good time taking the pictures. We even went to the beach by Miller Place Inn to take some pics. It was freezing!! I wanted to get a couple pics by the water - he said no prob! When we got there I was second guessing myself because it was sooo windy and cold. We got some awesome video of Dave carrying me over the snowbank and onto the rocks. It was fun even though we were freezing. I hope it was worth it. I can't wait to see the pics.

Broadway Favors - A
Everything was great with them also. The favors were ready early and I ordered extra - and it was no problem. I got salt & pepper shakers that were hearts that fit inside each other. The only thing was that my MIL put pepper in the pepper shaker and the bottom fell out and the pepper spilled out - I don't know if it was just that one or if they all have this problem. I don't blame broadway favors for that though.

Miller Place Inn - A+
Everything was awesome. Everyone was raving about the food and how nice everything was. The bridal attendant was good - although I didn't need her much - but she always made sure I had my water with lemon (thats all I drink

) The only slight mishap was (i only found this out yesterday) that they took the pedistals that belonged to flower michele and hid them so when they came to pick them up - they said they didn't have them. So Flower michele called us looking for them. My mom called Miller Place and they found them hidden in some room. They called Flower Michele to straighten everything out and it turned out fine.
