I apologize it took so long for me to post, but we have been so busy, here goes... Thank god the weather held for us, because we wanted the ceremony outside and we did!
Majestic Gardens -A++ They were amazing, everything was perfect, we had everything we wanted and more, the service was excellent, they offered every guest seconds of their main course, which not to many people took because of the amazing cocktail hour, everyone was stuffed. They offered each guest to take home whatever they didn't finish, even the desserts, the cake was provided by their bakery and was identical to the picture I gave them and delicious too! John is who we delt with all along the way with the planning and he was so helpful and threw in many extras and was there the whole time. I would recommend them to everyone!
Rev. Joe - Personalized Weddings - A++ Rev. Joe and his wife, Judy are so sweet. The ceremony was just PERFECT. We couldn't ask for anything more special.
Wild Rose Video - A++ Marie was so very sweet and helpful, can't wait to arrange everything for the video, we'll do that this week. She had her assistant John with her and he was just really such a sweet guy.
ADA Photography - A+ We had Anthony J. and his assistant Alison, we were pleased with both of them, we should have the proofs this week. We did all the pictures before the ceremony, they arrived right on time and got busy with us, since we wanted to enjoy cocktail hour. I will post more when the proofs come in. The only complaint was that they left at 5:00 and the Wedding was over at 6:00, not a big deal b/c all the important shots were over with but I just thought that was weird.
All Star Limo - A They were on time and friendly and the cars were nice, very clean. The only complaint I have with them is that the Bridal Party Limo had no alcohol in it which they said it would, that was a little disappointing because no one looked until they were already on the road, or else I would have stocked it myself. We used them for airport transportaion to and from for the Honeymoon and they were very accomidating, on time and professional.
Get In Tune DJ- B+ He was very professional and had the crowd moving about 1 1/2 hours into the wedding, I am not sure why there was no fast music for the first 1 1/2 hours of the reception, it could have been because food was being served but it was all we heard. The complaint I have with them is that I specifically gave him a list of songs that were to be heard and they didn't play half of them, not a huge deal, it didn't ruin the wedding or anything, but I was waiiting for certain songs that I had planned to dance with certain family members with and they weren't played. We also had the steel drum for cocktail hour and it was great, everyone enjoyed it.
Jacqueline Nicole Make Up - A++ Excellent, she arrived early set up, gave some Bridal Party memebers a quick help, they didn't even book with her, they were doing their own, she just offered, that was very sweet. She made me feel and look like a princess. The make up last all day, just had to touch up the lipstick and that was it. She also did my mom's and she looked perfect!
Jennifer - Fairytale - A++ Again, just perfect, she was on time, very sweet and made me feel great. I can't wait until I need an updo again, just to call her!
James Cress Florist - A+ They were on time both at my apt. and Majestic Gardens, the flowers were so amazing and beautiful! The only complaint I had is that I wanted the bridal party and my boquet with open roses, none of them were, but they were still georgous.
Aruba - Wyndham - A+ The honeymoon was great, the only complaint was that all the extra ammenities that you are to recieve with the plan we had to ask for and remind them, they weren't just given. It was perfect!
If I left anything out, please ask! Thank you again girls for all your opinions and advice, it wouldn't have been so perfect if it was for all of you~~

Congrats, everything looks great,
Funny how you say that about Get in Tune I too gave him a list and I didnt hear alot of it but I think everyone enjoyed whatever he played anyway. Funny though i didnt have any slow songs played and you did, guess its all in the mood
