Our AMAZING May 30th wedding at FOX HOLLOW! ***NOW WITH SOME PICTURES***
SORRY THIS IS SOOO LATE!!!FOX HOLLOW- A+++++: What can I say that hasn't already been said! Fox was FANTASTIC & I could not have been happier. The ceremony in the west garden was absolutely gorgeous! The bridal attendant, Laurie & our Maitre'D Sandra were both incredible & waited on our every need. The food at the CH was DELICIOUS and there was soooo much of it! Everyone is still raving! We had it outdoors on the patio and it was lovely. Everyone's dinner at the reception was served piping hot...and the pastry crusted fish was SCRUMPTIOUS!!! Ok...so the provided cake was still a little dry even though I brought this up as one of my concerns, but it was still really good and it looked GORGEOUS!!! Just like the picture I brought them! I love the FOX and all you future brides have nothing to worry about! Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
SHERWOOD TRIART PHOTOGRAPHY - A++++++++++++++++ : I wish I could get some of my proofs online because they are INCREDIBLE! Earl was our main photographer & Dana did the photojournalistic shots (he was my 'STALKER') They were both so professional & fun to work with...very organized! And the quality of the photos is incomparable...and the photojournalistic shots are so beautiful...some are so artistic they look like the are straight out of a book! The candids were great & I have NEVER seen such great shots of kids!!! I have 5 boxes of proofs...they took over 1000 pics! I recommend them to ANYONE!!! They may be a little pricey, but I can't imagine money more well spent for memories that will last a lifetime! I can't wait to see my video!!!
BODY ROCK: A: The only reason they don't get any pluses was because they didn't play our correct entrance song (which they had because they played it later in the night) and they forgot our anniversary dance...but other than that they were great. Kept the party going & everyone dancing. After seeing my proofs, I can see what a great time everyone was having!
JANET KING, HARPIST: A+++: We used Janet & a flute & cello for the ceremony & CH. It was so amazingly beautiful to have the trio play in the garden during the ceremony....it was like a fairtytale. I chose the processional songs & she even did 'I WILL' by the Beatles for our Unity Candle lighting...fabulous! Definitely an extra touch that really added to the atmosphere.
SCOTTO FLORIST: B- : The table arrangements were lovely, HOWEVER, the personal flowers were MUCH TOO SMALL. I specified to Chris Manuel MANY, MANY times that I wanted sizeable bouquets...especially for me. When I got my flowers delivered that morning, I was VERY DISSAPOINTED!!! The BM bouquets were very pretty as they were mixed flowers w/ pastel colors, but could have been larger. My bouquet was ridiculously SMALL...only 1 DOZEN ROSES!!! I even pointed out photos to him that hang on the wall of their office to show him the size bouquet I wanted. I really can't say I would recommend them due to this. If you are using him, you really need to specify HOW MANY flowers you want in your bouquet & have them WRITE IT IN THE CONTRACT!!! Also, my roses were to be PALE YELLOW, and that WAS in the contract, but I got regular yellow roses anyway. I'm still upset when I look at my proofs, but since every other aspect of my wedding was perfect, I don't dwell on it.
CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN from AUDREY'S BAKERY: A++++++++++++++: My guests STILL can't stop talking about it! The hit of the party!!! And for such a minimal PP price, defintely the BEST money we spent!!! Don't go without it!!!
DANTE'S TUXEDOS OF WESTBURY: A++++: Mike, the owner, is fantastic! He helped us pick out our tuxes, and everything was just perfect. We never waited long, and when we picked them up, the sizes were great. And no complaints when we brought back our ring bearers white shirt & vest covererd in CHOCOLATE! I definitely recommend them.
SANDALS GRANDE ST. LUCIAN: A: Beautiful island, beautiful restort. We went to the Halcyon (too small) and the Regency (not as modern or in the best geographic location) and the GRANDE was the nicest of the three. Service was very good....loved lying on the beach & having our drinks served to us (NO PRESSURE, NO PROBLEM!) The food was OK...nothing to rave about, but all in all, it was a beautiful honeymoon & we had an amazing time.
LESTANS: A+: My dress was gorgeous & the alterations were perfect! There was some long waits on some of our fittings, but I don't know that it's not like that everywhere else too.
FINALLY:
MOTHER NATURE: A+++++++++++++: What a gorgeous day!!! Absolutely PERFECT which made our garden ceremony & outdoor CH INCREDIBLE!!!
wedding pics
I only was able to add a few pics. I spent all last night scanning them, but shutterfly was slow in uploading them. I will get more on this weekend.
ETA: I FORGOT TO ADD A REVIEW FOR MY HAIR & REVEREND MICHAEL CALLAHAN
Hair: Cosmetic Artistry by MYA: A+++ She came to the Inn at 6am & by 8am she and her assitant had done hair for 7, including the flower girl. Mya did my hair in 40 minutes & it stayed really nicely all day. I did have the back down & late in the night the curls sort of fell a little, but I did ALOT of dancing. I kept my veil on, so it really wasn't noticeable. She did a great job & my BM's looked great. I will have some of their pictures up this weekend.
Ceremony: Reverend Michael Callahan: A++++++ I got a recommendation for him from this board & let me say how much my husband & I loved him. My ceremony was absolutely beautiful. He did sort of a formal Catholic ceremony...prayer & readings, but we also mixed in poetry & also we included our sons in the Unity candle and also after exchanging rings, we exchanged family medallions with the kids, it was really special. He made many mentions of our families & the children and it was very special. He really lent to the lovely, romantic atmosphere of the wedding. & he was just really a wonderfully nice man.
