Shamma's Reveiw of LizLen's Fantabulous Wedding with pix

I might be a little biased in my review of Liz's wedding, b/c we used so many of the same vendors, but if the vendors did not live up to their name I would not give them as great a review as I am going to give them.

Flower Den - A+ The flowers were spectacular, fresh, and so lush looking. Liz's bok- the bp bo-k's the men's bouts, the alter arrangements the centerpieces, everything was well done. I am sure Liz was very happy with the work that Gigi did.

Chateau Briand - A++++++++ I can say I don't think anyone else can do a wedding like they can, there is just something about the way they do things, with elegance and class. The cocktail hour was off the hook, the displays, the fresh fruit, the butler service, everything was first class all the way. If I had to do my wedding all over again it would be with them, no second guesses

DJ- Entertainment Integrators, A++++++ from the moment we walked in, it was none stop dancing and partying. They played a little something for everyone and they got the house jumping and they kept the house jumping.

Steel Pan Players A++++ - CM Productions, was lively and entertaining for the cocktail hour, they were wonderful, they played everything from classical to R&B, it makes a difference so those of you considering not having music, do it.

I did not use Wild Rose - but this was my second time watching Bill work and all I can say is, he is like 10 men in one, he was every where, even when the photographer was not there he was there. I think Liz will see a lot of what Bill caught that her photographer might not have. He is very unobtrusive and quiet for such a big man. Liz if you see a lot of me on your video its only b/c he liked how I smiled...LOL


The Limo (I do not know who she used) they were professional and the cars looked great. Liz can expand on that later.

Cassarino- photographer, I will not say much, I will leave this up to Liz. One word of advice I can give to all brides to be, is talk to your photographer b/c this is extremely important, let them know what shots you want. I think at one point Liz was gone for too long from her reception, she said it could not be avoided. I say if you do not have to leave, take your pix during your cocktail hour.

The Harpist at the church was fantastic, she was on point and played melodiously.

The little things that Liz added to her wedding was all wonderful, her menus matched her programs. She had little ribbons tied around her bells that tied in with the color scheme.

The cake her sister baked was like no other I have ever seen in America, this cake, was off the hook. Her sister did a fantastic job.

I enjoyed her wedding and I can say it was a memorable event for all those who attended. It was a crying celebration all in one. I am so happy she invited me to share in her day. I pray God blessings on her marriage now and always. I love you girl.

PS I won the CP and hubby won the table # frame.

Shout out to my peeps at table 17, you all know who you are, my dancing partners Theresa, shake that ting, Curly shake dat ting, Latina shake dat ting. You ladies were fun and so were your men.

The bride was gawjus, just plain gawjus, Jacqueline Nicole is the bomb. Liz's makeup did not move and neither did her hair.

Next set of pix will be her reception. Someone saw me shooting the place card table and asked me why, I said details baby, details. When a person plans a wedding for 16 mos, all those details must be taken for their memories. When I go to weddings all I pay attention to are the details.
