HELP! Wedding Planner suggestions??

Hi All!

I just got engaged on Thanksgiving (yay!) and joined the site today. I live in Manhattan but my fiance's family is based on LI and the chances are about 50/50 that the wedding will be on LI, especially since he and I may be moving out there in the spring.

I'm sure I'll be doing tons of reading and posting questions, but basically the first one I have right now is for suggestions for a wedding planner. I'm not from here and my fiance is the oldest so his family hasn't planned a wedding before, plus I'm one of the first of my friends to get engaged. Basically I don't have anyone to ask for a referral from!

I'm looking for a planner who can pretty much do full planning with me, not just day of coordination, as my mom lives in Canada and I think I may need a little hand-holding :). Second, I'm looking for someone who either specializes in or is at the very least very familiar with Jewish weddings (not orthodox, but traditionally Jewish).

Any and all suggestions will be very welcomed! Thank you so much and I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone!

Best,
Meredith
