So Saturday was a big wedding planning day, we had plans to meet with Absolute entertainment and meet with the priest at my home town church, St. Barnabas in Bellmore--- The DJ was amazing, he came recommended by 2 family members, we attended two weddings they did, loved them, met with them and put a deposit down= EXCITMENT!
Then we went to the church, met with father Valentine, looked through all the books he showed me my baptism papers, communion papers and confirmation papers! Was aammmazing- then he went to check the date, October 22, 2011 and it was not available= DEPRESSION!
Now I am on the hunt for a Catholic church in Nassau County-- im getting married in Stewart Manor, but live in Bellmore. If anyone knows and could recommend a church you would be amazzzingg!!!

Sorry- I won't be any help, but if the Church was that important, why didn't you call them first and schedule a day then plan the reception around that?
There are a lot of girls on here using Nassau Churches (mine is in Suffolk), so I'm sure they can recommend them
