It was amazing!! Can't post pictures yet, but as soon as my scanner is hooked up, you will see them.
OHEKA - was great. The food was outrageous, the service impecable!!! What more can I say!! A++++
MAXIMUS (William did my hair) He was absolutely wonderful. (Nadene did makeup) She also does a wonderful job. Everybody commented on both all day - still are. They also did my mother's makeup and hair and she looked georgous!! (she was my MOH) They are highly recommended!! A++++
JOVAN - AMAZING photography. We changed photographers at the last minute and we had our engagement pictures done 1 week before the wedding. (We wanted to give the parents a picture of us). When we got the proofs, OMG every single picture was outrageous!!!. On the wedding day, we saw the photographers up on ledges, behind trees, capturing everything - unbelievable. A+++++
SOUNDS OF INFINITY- The dancefloor was packed all night!! They played all kinds of music. None of the 'group' dances - and believe me you did not need them. They sounded just like the albums. Also unbelievable. A++++
SCARCELLAS - Georgous flowers. Everyone also commented on these. I had high and low centerpieces - I had all white roses with elegant fillers (no baby's breath). One of my cousin's commented that they stopped counting the roses at 50 for the high centerpieces and he still didn't get them all. Wonderful job!!! A++++++
Kings Brass Trumpetters - Honestly - I do not remember much about them. I was way toooo nervous. I had them out in the front of the castle to greet the guests and I heard them in the distance - they sounded incredible for the setting. It was a great touch also for my walking down the isle. A+++
KLEINFELD - I had a gown which was designed by Kenneth Poole. I went to a trunk show and picked it out, so it will not be out until next year. I was the first bride to have this gown.

and everyone absolutely loved it. He used to work with Vera Wang, but branched off because he liked to put some detail on the gown, whereas Vera Wang does not. There was not much beading. The words used were Simply Elegant. Kleinfled's seamstresses are wonderful. The dress looked like it was made for me. A++++
That's all I can think of at the moment. I'll be happy to answer any questions if you have any. Also I will post pictures as soon as I can.
