Finally booked reception

I am so excited after a lot of stressing out we finally booked our reception at the Beach Club Estate on Lake Ronkonkoma June 11, 2004.

I had to get my poor Mom to come all the way out from Ireland to help me make my decision.

What should my next step be?

Congrats!!!!!

Work on getting your vendors, Photography, DJ, Video, and the Church, or the Officiant, if you are getting married there.

Congrats! After I booked my hall the first thing I did was the church then the photographer. Music is a priority too!

Re: Finally booked reception

photographer, video & band/dj tend to book up early, especially in the spring/summer months.

Congrats! Now you'll be able to plan what looks good in your hall! I think music would be a good next step!

Congrats!! I would say music should be next. Especially if you want a band, that took me a while. The photo, video... Good Luck!

oooh I am so excited for you - what was your mum's reaction? I don't think my mum knows what she is in for with a full blown 2003 wedding

Re: Finally booked reception

Congrates It always feels good to knock one item off the list. I suggest getting the church next most def. Then start with the vendor- photo, DJ/Band, Video, ect... Good Luck

Congratulations....

hmmmmm...After booking the major vendors like photography, video and DJ, start looking for dresses both online and using bridal magazines. Also even plan a day where you and your bridal party can get together to casually look at styles together and bring it down to at least 3 aggreable designs that they would like to try on during the first visit to the bridal boutique. It helped me eliminate a lot of confusion and conflicting opinions.....

Congratulations! The first mountain has been passed! Now its time for the fun part, narrowing down vendors that are right for you! If you have any questions on vendors, just let us know!
