Which one did you really enjoy and did an excellent job and would have no reservation working with them again or recommending them to others.
I would recommend the following
Photo & Video - Imagine Studios, hands down the video and the photos are fantastic, I was an eager bride as Lia called me and I was always calling them. Lia has an eye and they both work so well together and both so unobtrusive, we love their work
Flowers - Flowerden, Gigi is creative and affordable, she listens and does exactly what you require, when my flowers arrived I cried, fresh, lush and so beautiful
DJ - Entertainment Integrators, they kept me dancing all night long, people see us now and still comment on what a fun wedding it was, they know how to make a party move
Hall - Chateau Briand, they did it up, everything was perfect and I felt like a Queen all day. If I had another event it would be at CB
Makeup - Jennifer/Fairtytale - wonderful and patient and knows her stuff. I enjoyed working with her immensly. She made me look flawless, even today I was looking at a pix trying to see if I could see the discoloration in any of the close up pix of myself, everyone covered. She listens and is great to work with.
I forgot our lovely Steel Pan players for the cocktail hour, they were excellent, they started playing before the cocktail hour and they played all the way up until the reception. They were entertaining and very talented.
I did not give Royalty a bad review, we loved their service but something that they did not want to bargain with us on made me say I would look elswhere, but they were friendly on time and knew where they were going.
I loved all of my vendors, it was great working with all of them. We will be using our DJ again real soon and once I get Preggo I will used Imagine again.

I forgot about RK bridal, I enjoyed working with my attendant but when it came to alterations it was a pain in the tush.

Re: ANOTHER SPIN ON VENDOR
I would highly recommend the following:
My Catering hall - Flowerfield Bridal Salon - Bridal Suite in Centereach (Debbie) Videographer - Wild Rose. I havent seen the finished product, but they have been a pleasure to deal with. Make up - Melanie from Chanel
I dont want to dwell on the negative, but we had problems with our photographer and band. Most of you know who they are!
Bridal Suite of Bay Shore!! they were the nicest people...and while my BM had an attitude and they gave it back to her a little...I think she diserved it (she didn't bring her shoes - like I told her to - and they wouldn't fit her)
and my ceremony/cocktail musicians!! Encore... they were great!!

Jenn - The reason I dont have my video yet is because we didnt give them the pictures for quite a while. I was waiting on my husband to get baby pictures and his mom just moved. Time was going by so we decided to just add pictures of me and him together. Thats why I dont have it yet.

I would recommend: -Imagine for photo and video...right there with ya on that Shamma! -Atlantica, my catering hall for their outstanding and accomodating service as well as their awesome food and beautiful location! -Bayport Flower House for the outstanding job they did on helping me create my vision. -Mary Brunetti at the Salon at Westhampton Bath and Tennis, for great hair and makeup, a loaner extension that matched perfectly, and constant touch ups throughout the night! -Krompier entertainment as my DJ for insuring just about everyone at my wedding was on the dance floor for at least several intervals and having a great time throughout the night!

I would highly recommend . . . - Imagine Studios for photography/video - I can't say enough great stuff about Lia and Nelson - I'm sure you've all heard it a million times - - Lizard Designs (www.lizarddesigns.com) - My invitations were amazing - Custom-designed (no extra charge), unique and affordable. Liz was a pleasure to work with and does amazing work. - Sans Souci of Sea Cliff (my hall) - They made the day unforgettable - Beautiful atmosphere, amazing food, just perfect - - Albert Lee Music (DJ) - Had everyone dancing all night, played nothing I didn't want to hear - And cheap!

Re: ANOTHER SPIN ON VENDOR
I would recommend for sure:
Full House - our band. Claud stole my review! I would definielt call them again when we need a band. They were amazing.
The Meadow Club - our recpetion was wonderful and to this day we are still getting compliments.
The Royal Brass - trumpets and string quartet. They were great and a pleasure to work with. They even learned our recessional song for us without a hitch (since it was a family composed piece).
Jackie from I Make Up You - she was there ready and waiting for us when we got home from the salon. My make-up stayed all night long and I never felt like I had make-up on.
Giovanna from Giovanna's for hair - she was wonderful! She does my hair normally, and my hair for the wedding stayed all night long. It was in for at least 17 hours - veil and all - and nothing fell out and my veil never moved.

Re: ANOTHER SPIN ON VENDOR
My best vendors were:
Old Field Club - NO problems at all - were wonderful to work with and didn't think I was neurotic at all Sugar Magnolia's - my flowers and centerpieces were gorgeous, and Heidi was a sweetie to work with.
B rett M atthews Photography - John and his asst were amazing. We loved our pictures and the one minor issue I had recently was resolved professionally.
Spin Around Sound - Tom was great - many ppl commented on how great the music was at our wedding
Sterling Music Ensembles - String quartet played beautifully, and arrived on time :)
I would not recommend my bridal store or cake lady

Tammy I can't wait to see it!!! We just picked up our 20x24 last week from Grey and it came out great too - even if it was taken inside b/c of the rain

Forgot to comment on my limos!
All Star was awesome! We went back and forth with the times a lot, so it was confusing. They were always professional and on the day of the drivers were so sweet.
