I'll give my review in a little while...just wanted to show you all a few pics from my wedding on 12/7/03...
First...let me start by saying I can't believe how much snow we had!!! They were saying it wasn't supposed to start until Fri night, but it started early Fri morning...and didn't stop...
On our way out to LI on Saturday, the restaurant, Maine Maid Inn, cancelled on us...we were supposed to have our rehearsal dinner there...but we wound up having it at the Plainview Marriott Residence Inn (the hotel where we were staying)restaurant...which turned out very nice. They even made up rehearsal dinner menus for us at the very last minute...and they surprised us with them.
The next phone call came from our priest...Fr. Bob Allmen...he cancelled on us as well because he was stuck in Rome!!!! But, Fr. Gervais performed our ceremony for us and he was great!!!
Limos - Royalty Limos A...they showed up on time, even in the snow, and the cars were great.
Photographer - Great Neck Photographers A+++++...LOVED THEM!!!! They showed up at the hotel right on time and were awesome...they took all the pics I asked them to and weren't in the way. My sister even told me that they were very patient with her because she was trying to snap soooo many of the same pics and they just let her do her thing. Dante, the main photographer, was wonderful...I can't wait to see my proofs!!!!!
Hair and Makeup A++++ Fairytale Makeovers. Jenn and her crew showed up right on time at around 4:30 am to start on all of us...we were 7 all together who needed to be ready by 9am. They were wonderful...and they made us all look so pretty!!!!
Florist - Milleridge Florist A+
They delivered all of the flowers to the hotel right on time...all of the bouquets were gorgeous, but they did such a spectacular job on my BM's...they were gorgeous. And, the centerpieces were soooooo pretty. They messed up and forgot to send one boutienniere and 2 corsages, but by the time we got to the Milleridge before the reception, they had them waiting for us.
Solutions Valet Parking - A
MILLERIDGE COTTAGE - A++++++++++
What else can I say...they were fantastic throughout the whole process. The place is gorgeous, especially in the winter around this time because they decorate it so nice. Steve, the maitre'd was phenomenal...he treated Frank and I like a King and Queen.
Honeymoon Aruba Marriott Hotel and Stellaris Casino...awesome!!! We loved Aruba so much, we're planning on going back. We almost didn't make the HM, because Frank got sick with the flu on our wedding day and we actually cancelled the HM Sunday night...but then by Tuesday he was better and we rebooked the whole thing...we had a blast!!!!
