My Review- 10-8-11

Hello Everyone!

My wedding was everything I could of dreamed of. I'm so glad the weather turned out nice. It was 70 and sunny. It came and went so fast. I was glad that everything I worked so hard on for the wedding all these months turned out beautifully! I have a few pics in my album. Waiting on the pro pics.

Hairstylst/Makeup: Beauty Touch By Elena: I give her an A-.

She did a beautiful job with my hair and makeup. It was exactly what I wanted. All my bridesmaids were happy too. The only thing was that she was a little late coming to my house so we ran late to the church and couldn't take pictures inside the church after the mass. We had to take them all outside. Also, we missed out on taking pictures at the Brooklyn Bridge since we had to get to the hall. I still recommend her. She is good.

Church: Our Lady of Angels (Brooklyn, NY): They get an A+. It was a beautiful ceremony!

The Swan Club: They get an A.

They did a great job with everything. When we got there they were waiting for us outside. Brought us to our room so we can take a minute to relax. Got us some drinks. Then, we went to take pictures and after attended the cocktail hour. I enjoyed it very much. The reception was great! Food was delicious! After the wedding was over, all I heard was that they rushed everything with the cake. Didn't give anyone a moment to really walk over and see it and take some pictures. And that they should of had the DJ announce the viennese table. They just brought everything out without people knowing. Once it was out people looked over and saw it and walked over. I didn't let it get to me. It could of been worse. I still enjoyed every moment of my reception.

Patken Photography/Videography: They get an A.

Patken did an awesome job. We had Kevin for photos and Frank for Video. Got a lot of nice and different shots from my house to the church then the reception. Can't wait to see everything. Very excited! The only thing was that my mom wished that Kevin would of taken more pictures with everyone at the reception. I wish she would of told me then cause I would of had him take more. Very nice guy. Would of done it with no problem.

DJ- Finest Entertainment:

Camelot Limousine: They get an A+

They were great! Thank you!

My dress: Private Label by G- A+
Purchased at RK Bridal in Manhattan: They get an A-

The dress was beautiful. I ordered it late January and it was at the store in April. Also, my headpiece was purchased there and it came fast. The only issue I had was with the fittings. The seamstress tightened it too much where I couldn't breath. She was saying did I put on weight. I hadn't. I was losing weight. It took 4 fittings and finally my dress was good. Picked it up and took it home one week before the wedding. My veil I ordered online. That took a while to come. I tried to save a couple of bucks. I was on edge until it was delivered.

Invitations: Ordered online at Invitations by Dawn.

They were Cinderella themed. I loved them! A+
