10/11/03 review with link to photo album
Dress - Burton’s Bridal’s - AGreat job, the staff are wonderful. My bustle looked great, however, I could not find the “dance strap” they said they added so I had to hold the dress over my arm for my first dances. Otherwise, highly recommended, for price, quality and service.
Hair - my sister-in-law's co-worker Jessica (fm me for number) A++
It looked great and stayed all day and night!
Makeup - my self (with the help of MAC) - A++
Well worth the expense (at Macy's)
Limo - Vets Limousine - A++
What a great company! Everything you need plus great personalities and service. These guys (Dan and Scott) are the best. We even were able to get a specialty car (1959 Cadillac Fleetwood) on short notice at a fraction of the cost from another vendor who was too concerned about going over the 15 minute grace period! They took care of everything including fixing my train and keeping calm before I walked down the aisle. Call them - (631) 447-7114!
Flowers - Tropica - C
Not too happy with my bouquet. It looked nothing like the one I ordered (and gave them a picture of) and it was not secured properly so it kept falling out of the holder. There was nothing I could do about it since my ceremony was at 9:30 a.m. and they were delivered that morning, but I would not use them again. The bridesmaids bouquets were just what I ordered, as were the boutineers/corsorages, but not mine - very disappointing.
Photographer/Video - Ariana Studios - A
So far, so good. I haven’t seen the results yet, but their service, etc. that day was great - very unobtrusive.
Reception - Woodbury Country Club - A++++++
I can’t say enough about this place!! Perfection. They provided the best food, in abundance, with impeccable service. This was, as many have since told us, the most lavish, elegant wedding they have ever been to! Everything went as we planned it. The tables were set up just as asked, with my centerpieces (homemade), menus, favors, etc. They even went to the store for me during the reception when they found out that I was going to cancel the bouquet/garter toss because I forgot my garter!! Anyone who has not booked yet, should check them out. They are reasonably priced and are worth every last cent!! The grounds are beautiful, too. We took pictures outside during cocktail hour while everyone was gathering inside (we missed most of cocktail hour, but that was due to our large families that were not too cooperative)! They made sure, however, that Frank and I had food in our suite and that we went in there and enjoyed it before the reception began. All this, not to mention the champagne reception when our guests first entered the place along with white glove butler service of hor’derves.
DJ - Bravura Entertainment - A+++
Great job by Anthony and his DJ. Everyone danced all day and had a great time. He did everything we wanted and played all the right music (we discussed with him our thoughts on music style, etc. and let him make the specific choices) - he was incredible!

thanks curly! I saw your review and pics - you look beautiful in that dress - good choice. I too, was not 100% about the dress until my second fitting when it was altered the right way! Glad you had a great day!
