My 11/25/05 Estate at East Wind review!!!!(Now with pics)
Our wedding was the best day of our lives!! A complete fairytale beyond our wildest dreams!! Not one thing went wrong that day and all of our vendors exceeded our expectations!!! Here is my review!!! If anyone has any questions about any vendors we used, please FM me!
Mother Nature ~ A
It was very cold the day of our wedding but it was so sunny!!! We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day!!!
Davids Bridal ~ A+
I got my dress and bridesmaids dresses from the old store in Carle Place. My dress was perfect and so were the bridesmaids!! We had no problems at all with them. But, we did not use them for alterations.
Fantasyland ~ Veil ~ A+
I got my veil from there and it was beautiful!!! It was exactly what I wanted and the price was great!!! They were by far cheaper than anywhere else I looked.
Invitations ~ exclusivelyweddings.com ~ A+
We got our invitations from exclusivelyweddings.com and they were exactly what we wanted!!! They also had the best prices around!! They always have coupon codes so if you decide to order invitations from them, look around for the coupon code!!!
Hair & Makeup ~ Razing Hair ~ A+
My hairdresser brought a team of people with her the morning of my wedding to do everyone’s hair and makeup. They were at the house by 6 a.m. and were done with everyone by 8 a.m. The morning went more smooth than I could have ever imagined!!!
Gennaro's Tuxedo's ~ C-
They never hemmed my BIL's pants and they were held up with safety pins, my Dad's hem came undone a few minutes before we had to walk down the aisle so he had to use a stapler and staple the hem up, my brother's shirt was the wrong size...We had quite a few problems with the tuxes they gave us...Would not recommend them.
Florist ~ Flowers By Rosemarie ~ A++++++++
My flowers were AMAZING!!!!! I only needed bouquets, corsages and boutonnieres. I almost cried when I saw them!!! I knew when I first met with her that she would do an incredible job, and she did!!! They were exactly what I wanted and her prices are great!!!!
Serenity Limo ~ Limobus ~ A+
Our limobus was great!!! They were on time and the bus was very clean!!! We had a 30 minute drive from the church to the reception hall so we wanted everyone to be comfortable!!! It was a party on wheels!!! It had a bathroom in it and came with a waitress to serve everyone drinks!!
DJ ~ High Voltage ~ A+
What more can I say about Vinny that everyone else hasn’t said. He was the one vendor I never worried about doing a great job! I annoyed him for a whole year and he never got sick of me emailing him, or at least he never led on that he was annoyed! He had people on the dance floor the whole reception and people are still commenting on how great the music was!! Vinny has always made me feel like I have known him my whole life!! I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone needing a great DJ at a great price!!
Photography ~ Artistic Images~ A
Artie was great to work with the day of our wedding!! Our proofs came out absolutely beautiful!!!
Centerpieces ~ Lenox Outlet ~ A+
Lenox is my absolute favorite so when it was time to decide on centerpieces, I saw the Lenox Candle Lamps in the Christmas pattern and I knew I had to have them as centerpieces!! I didn’t want to do flowers because I wanted something that guests could use again. People were literally fighting to win them!!! I got them for a great price at the Riverhead Outlets!!
THE ESTATE AT EAST WIND ~ A++++++++++
Words can not express the way we felt when we got to East Wind. We were greeted by our FABULOUS Maitre D’ Scott and bridal attendant Erin. I never had to ask for a new drink because there was always one ready for me…I didn’t get to try some food at cocktail hour so they brought it to me for dinner along with my meal!!! They went above and beyond any expectations that we had!!!! The hall was breathtaking and the food was incredible!! People are still telling us how elegant it was!! When we went to East Wind for the first time, we thought there would be no way we could afford it but they made our dreams come true!!!! Our guests are still talking about how they come around and offer seconds for dinner!!! East Wind brides have nothing to worry about!!!
The Inn at East Wind ~ A+
We stayed there on our wedding night and it was beautiful!!! The rooms were clean and spacious!! And the bed was very comfortable!!!
Honeymoon ~ Disney World ~ A+
Disney World is the best!! We stayed at the Contemporary and when we got there, they upgraded our room to a Tower Room on the 11th floor overlooking the magic kingdom because we were newlyweds!!! It was the best honeymoon ever!!! Just remember, when you wish upon a star, your dreams come true!!!!!!
