My 5/27/07 wedding review coming soon!

Hey 07ers--

I didn't post much on here, but I got some great information about the Westbury Manor and a few other vendors (especially who NOT to use). I want my review to be as helpful as possible to future brides (especially since I didn't use many LIW vendors), so it'll take a little bit of time...but it's coming.

I will say off the bat that I never asked for a 'perfect' wedding day. I didn't dream about every aspect of my wedding since I was a young girl, and I never wanted to feel like Cinderella at the ball. It was exactly the warm, cozy, simple affair that I did want, and though my husband (!!!) and I put a lot of effort and love into the planning of this wedding, we never felt like the planning got away from us.

In the meantime, it was an excellent day--the weather was gorgeous, the food was amazing, everyone had a good time...and one of the Westbury Manor peacocks made a surprise appearance halfway through the ceremony...

A few candids are in my album...more to come.

Good luck to all you future brides!

I had a great experience with them before and during the wedding. The maitre'd and the bridal attendant are totally on their game. The only trouble I had on the wedding day was that we were told beforehand that we could have family portraits in the garden right after the ceremony (and we subsequently told our families to stay behind for said pictures), and then right after the ceremony they said that we couldn't stay because there was another event (so we ended up doing them in the portrait studio later in the afternoon).

So no real problems. A minor annoyance, but that was it.

So pretty Congrats!!!

congratulations ~ U look beautiful & soooo happy!
