I considered the package but wanted a different hall, so I'm no expert there. Instead, I'm using the other Wedding Plaza services, ie, video/photo/music. I think they have the best prices and quality service.

Yes, I am using the Complete wedding package with Ariana Studios and Douglaston Manor. So far, I am happy everything. My wedding is 9 months away though.

I think the Douglaston Manor is superb! I love the Grand Ballroom. I had a hard time with other venues because they were squishing 120 of us in a small room. It's so beautiful and an outdoor cocktail hour with a view of the Manhattan skyline? Wow! My BM, Chris, is the best. Very accomodating and down to earth. Funny too!

Met with Jeff and Kathy today at Ariana studios. Seemed really good. My FM gets the free tux and the choices and condition seems good. I also get the DJ, flowers, photo, video, invites and 2 stretch limos. It was a relief to get everything at a one stop shop that has good quality. The lady that does the honeymoons and travel in general is really down to earth and nice.

BTW, the bakery that the DM uses seems really good and you can also use their inhouse florist, Cress instead of Ariana for the same price. All in all, I am happy with my choice but I can only really know after my wedding next May 29th!
Hope this helps.

Hi!

Yes, this does help!
I also am using the complete package with Ariana studios, and are supposed to meet with all the vendors next week.

My FH and I are using everything except the DJ, and may only have one limo because I'm not having a full wedding party, only a best man and maid of, flower girl and ring boy.

I'm glad your experience was positive!

What do you feel the difference is between the Ariana sudios florist and the cress florist?
