My late review of my May 16, 2004 Lands End wedding
Sorry girls, I am posting this so late, but it has and still is crazy with all my new adjustments!! So here it goes. If anyone wants further info on my vendors, please FM me!
Mother Nature--A++++++++ I was so worried because I could not sleep the night before and all I heard was heavy rain and thunder. I had told myself--ok it is going to rain on your wedding day. Well, I finally awoke and it was so cloudy out, but at least no rain. HOWEVER, by 11:00 a.m. the sun was out and the sky was a beautiful blue and it was close to 78 degrees!!!! I was so happy!
Dress--Wedding Salon of Manhasset-A+ Excellent. I wore a Reem Acra dress and it fit like a glove. My dress came in on time and they were absolutely wonderful. This place is top notch!!
Bridesmaids Dresses-Adrienne's C My only vendor that I was disappointed with. All my girls dresses were too long (it looked ok, but definitely not what it should be). FM if want more info.
Invitations-Linda Lovelies A+ She was great. She helped me pick out the most gorgeous, simple and classy invitations that everyone complimented me on them-even my boss! She was excellent-definitely worth it! I also had the encore calligraphy and it was beautiful!
Limos-Ulitimate Class A+ Definitely a class act. Early, Janice my driver was awesome--straightening my gown, making sure that I have no lipstick on my teeth and just did a wonderful job. The cars were clean and beautiful! They were top notch!
Flowers-Burtons A+ Awesome. Exactly what I wanted. They held up and they were beautiful.
Tiara/Veil-Barrons at Tri County A+ Excellent. She did exactly what I wanted for a fraction of what it would have costed me.
Lands End--A+++++ OMG! They were oustanding. I cannot say enough good things about this place. Classy, elegant, classy, elegant. The food was outstanding, the service was implicable and the grounds are breathtaking. I was treated like a princess the whole night. I loved it!! My dreams all came true of my wedding thanks to their work!
Band-Original Faze Four-A++++++++ Outstanding. Everyone is still asking what band I used. They were so great. The congo woman was so great. Definitely they make the party!!!! I am sooo happy I had them!
Hair/Makeup-Jillian from Gorgeous and Sarah Rock A+++++++++++They were great! My makeup looked so pure and natural that everyone said I looked like a china doll! It felt so great that I looked my best. My hair was so beautiful and stayed in all night perfectly. I wore fake lashes and I strongly recommend them!! They do some job!
Photo/Video-Ferlise-I cannot rate until I get my pictures back.
I also made the votive candles for my placecards and everyone was talking about them-thanks LIW!!
HM-Aruba Hyatt-A++++ It was everything I hoped for and more. I asked for an upgrade and got a suite with a full balcony overlooking the water. The grounds were beautiful. A place we are definitely going back to!
Well, if anything pops up I will add to this list. Overall, I had all my dreams come true on May 16, 2004!! I married my best friend and love of my life!!![]()
