My 7/30, Riviera wedding review.Its long!! Pics coming soon!
Riviera-A+++++++. I wanted all my pictures taken before my ceremony (which was also at the hall) and they were so accomadating.We showed up at the hall at 3:30 and were there til1 1. 10 hours and they were awesome the whole time. They had told me that when we got there, there wouldn’t be anyone there to help us and we were fine with that but our Matre’D Robert Jay (who was beyond AMAZING) was there and helped with anything we needed right form the start.
Robert Jay was incredible. When I or anyone in my family or BP needed something he was there and if he wasn’t there and I asked someone to get him he was there in seconds (or at least it felt like that).
I can’t say enough about the hall. Michelle our banquet manager was great. The food was good and plenty of it. We had 4 choices. Shrimp stuffed with lobster and crab meat (BIG HIT) Sea Bass (BIG HIT) Filet Mignon (REALLY BIG HIT) and Chicken Princess (we got mixed reviews on this one). I had it; it was ok.It was chicken with melted mozzarella and asparagus spears.
Big Hits-A+++++++- Awesome Jeff was our Dj and Jack our MC amazing. Played everything we asked for kept people dancing. We dealt the whole time with Jerry the owner while making plans and he was great!!
Ariana Studios-Photo and Video- A+- Can’t wait to see the pics and video. We had Penny as a photographer and Andy for video both very good.
Ceremony Music-Jim Tartaglia_ (MUSIC JHT) A+++++++- I was honored to have someone with this much talent play at my wedding for ceremony and cocktail hour. He was AMAZING .He added that very special touch to our wedding!!!
Limo-Royalty- A++++++++ We had one limo for three hours. One to get me at my house take me to the hall and then pick up FH at hotel nearby the hall .Well the night before I found out I had to make a stop to get my BIL after the limo got me. I called Royalty at 9:00 on Thursday and asked to be picked up at 145 instead of 2:15 so that we could make an extra stop. The Limo was here at 120 and waited so patiently for us since one of my BM wasn’t even at my house yet. I didn’t even get the drivers name but all I can say is it was a great company to work with.
Flowers By LOrraine- A+++++ Lorraine is so nice to work with and my flowers were AMAZING!! The day before thewedding my DH was going to pick up somethg and he got lost she waited for him and was so sweet and kind. Highly recommend her!!!
Hair-The Hair Genie ( Jenn) A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
What can I say my hair and my sister’s hair were great? It stayed the whole night and I loved it. She is extremely talented!!!!!
Makeup-Oksana-A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Anyone who read my other post I had to book a new makeup girl one week before thewedding.Luckily Oksana was available and she was great!! Everyone complimented me on my makeup. She is SOOOOOOO Talented!!!!
The weather turned out amazing. I was starting to worry while I was taking pics but by 7:00 the sun was out and our ceremony was great.Durig the cocktail hour the moon was so visible and it reflected on the water. It was breathtaking. I could not have dreamed of a better night (except it being humid LOL) it was AWESOME!!!!
