Just curious to see who were people's favorite vendors. I have to say, I was thrilled with most of mine but my favorites were:
Laura from LA Productions (DOC) - she was amazing. Not only did she do an amazing job as my day of coordinator but she has the best personality and added so much to our special day.
B rett M atthews (photography) - We looooove our proofs, and the day of, the photography team was so unassuming, professional, and gracious. Our proofs are artistic, creative, and beautiful.
Get in Tune (DJ) - I have NEVER seen a dance floor so packed. Ours was packed the entire night and people are still raving about how much fun they had. Get in Tune was great to work with and did a phenomenal job keeping the party going all night.
Keri Berman (make up) - I had been FREAKING out about make up and went for a zillion trials (the results of all of which made me cry). Keri did me, my mother, and sister. She did different work on all of us but we were all incredibly happy with the make up and it stayed all night! I felt so comfortable and got so many compliments. My sister's friend is a model and she said that our 3 make up jobs were the nicest she had ever seen.

Re: Who were your top vendors & why?
Patty Burgess.. make-up vendor on this site, she did such an amazing job with me and my bridal party. It didn't feel or look heavy, I got so many compliments. She also made me look elegant and not overdone-I hate the look of too much make-up.
Imagine Studios.. photography, my proofs were beyond what I could of ever imagined-no pun intended...Even still people are complimenting us for how amazing our thank you's were...
Flower Michele..florist, we went to John with a bit of a tight budget (we got married in January, and flowers were least important thing to us) and he was so great to work with. My flowers were exactly what I wanted. We didn't do CP's we had table runners and pillar candles with rose petals sprinkled all around-exactly what I had envisioned...
Alexis Limos - the drivers went above and beyond by video taping me coming out of my parents' house with one of the GM's cameras.
Duet - they were just awesome!

Maureen Padala - makeup
She was TRULY amazing. Not only did she do a GREAT job with the makeup, but she was just so kind, nice and unbelievably relaxing.
She was just SO sweet! We kept running late, and she had another bride to go to, and she kept calming me down, telling me to let her worry about the schedule not me! She was absolutely great!

I would have to say my DJ (Vinny-High Voltage) He made the party incredible. AND my Photographer (Timexposures) he made the day go so smoothly and gave me wonderful pictures.

It's so hard to choose!
I would say:
Makeup - Jacqueline Nicole: (prettyme.com) - I loved LOVED my makeup!! She was so great and sweet and my makeup really lasted a long time.
Photographer - ADA Studios : can NOT say enough about them. photographer was wonderful. My proofs are amazing. They were in a few days after the wedding. Plus I got this amazing proof book. And I ordered my thank-you's already and they'll be in in a few days!
Flowers - James Cress Florist:
A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.!!! Everything I envisioned, perfectly. Plus, he actually grew grass for me, for my centerpieces for an amazing price! I loved this man!!
Beach Club Estate:

Re: Who were your top vendors & why?
Not technically a 'vendor' but I LOVED our church's Monsignor! He rocked...Monsignor Hinch at Holy Child Jesus Church.
Limos - Double Diamond Limos went above and beyond. They were affordable, early, patient, funny! The limos were super clean too.
Our Hall! - Jericho Terrace no words...they exceeded all my expectations.
Can't wait to see my proofs from Twelfth Night. They were everywhere and were very relaxing and fun.
LOVE Bliss Productions! Also can't wait to see the finished product. Jerry was so calm, everywhere and professional.
These are vendors that I recommend to anyone without ANY hesitation!

Re: Who were your top vendors & why?
My favorites were by far Oksana for makeup and Jenn the Hair Genie for hair.
Jenn stayed well after she was done with all the BMs hair and helped my sisters tie up my corset. She is in a ton of my proofs!
Oksana for staying after she was done as well to touch up my makeup right before I was due at the church.
Overall both of these ladies are a breath of fresh air, calming me on my wedding day.
My other favorite would have to be 12th Nite Photo - my proofs are amazing and they are the nicest people to work with!
Are we going to talk about least favorite vendors too!?!?!?!

Re: Who were your top vendors & why?
Loved EMJC..they treated us like a King and Queen. Very professional and they threw in some stuff at the wedding that they knew we wanted but didn't have the budget for. (vodka ice sculpture-sushi bar)
Niteflight-my band..they were outstanding. I drove them nuts though and were very patient with me. They had everyone up dancing. Even the people that never dance! So happy I found them.
Photo-Lady Kat-Pauline took charge and made sure everything was perfect. She was unobtrusive and came with an assistant and lighting person. Tons of proofs and she was a pleasure to work with. I never had to go looking for her. Highly recommended.

Re: Who were your top vendors & why?
For now, I'm going to say, Peter Greco Productions, The Woodlands, and John from Ballroom Dance Long Island. Since i haven't posted a review or anything yet, I don't want to get into a lengthy explanation, but they were all the topest of notches!

Re: Who were your top vendors & why?
My favs were:
Jacqueline Nicole - I cannot say enough about this girl. Truly one of the most talented makeup artists I have ever met and worked with. Not only is she amazing she is so sweet.
Florist - Laskaris and Farrell now United Floral - Anthony consistantly takes my breath away with his work. I have never in the 4 years I've been going to him been disappointed in any arrangement I have sent or gotten from him. He is an artist and another fabulous person.
Now for the best.............. Flowerfield - I scraped, saved and sold my soul to pay to have my wedding here. It was by far the best decision I made. They were wonderful, actually beyond wonderful all during my planning and manged to be even more fabulous the day of the wedding. The staff there is top notch and the food.......holy cow!!!!!!! I'm still getting compliments!!! I have already told my brother that when he meets a girl and gets married he needs to have it there so I can enjoy it all over again!!!
