my July 11th wedding review!!!!!!!! long...

Everything yesterday was so perfect, and the weather held out which i didnt think it would!!

John Anthony's-A+
everything was perfect, parents arrived for coctail hour an hour early and were welcomed and catered to. The bridal attendant made sure we never needed a thing. We always had a cold drink, she helped with my bustle, brought us all the food we could want in the bridal suite. Perfect. the food was wonderful. Everything at coctail hour and dinner was great. I would highly recommend this hall.

DJ-Spin around Sound-A+
They were great. Played everything on our list that we wanted. Got everyone up and dancing. Made sure that we were happy with anything. Checked with us for extra requests to make sure we got whatever we wanted.

Burtons Florist-B+
Flowers were beautiful. Centerpieces and Bouquets were wonderful. My only issues are that they went to the wrong address first so flowers ended up arriving very late. When i was at the altar, i noticed that the pew bows were sitting on the floor of the church instead of on the pews. I asked that my throwaway bouqet be an exact replica of my bouqet and it was not. I had colored roses and the throw away was dasies or something. I would still highly recommend them

Paul Marino Photograher-A+
He was so great. He got every shot i asked for and was wonderful to work with. He loves his work, and makes sure everything is perfect. He does digital photography so he set up his laptop for us to see a small slideshow of some of the shots and they were amazing. Everyone at the reception was gathered around to see them.

Royalty Limo-A+
Limo showed up 1/2 hour early. He made sure everything was clean and comfortable for me. Helped me out every time. Held all of my stuff for me. Made sure we took the best routes to avoid traffic. Made sure we had champagne after the church. Got us around very quickly because time was an issue.

Bridal Reflections-A+
My gown was from here. They did everything great. i cant complain at all

Lilettes-A
Bridesmaids dresses from here.They did a great job. But were hard to schedule fittings with and were way too busy all the time.

Bonaventure Tuxedos-A+
No problems. Very efficient. All tuxes fitted great. Looked great. No problems.

Favorite Things Invitations-A+
Rebecca is the sweetest. She did caligraphy too. Worked with me until everyhing was perfect.

Fairy Tale Makeovers-A+
Jennifer is great. I was so happy with my hair and makeup. I went for 2 hair trials and ended up doing neither for the wedding. Jennifer can do anything with hair. I loved my makeup too. It all stayed perfect day and night.

Huntington Hilton-F
Blocked rooms here. A total disaster for my family. They wouldnt let my stepbrother in the room because reservation was under my parents name. They even called 2 times to make sure that wouldnt be a problem. Then on the wedding night my stepbrother's key didnt work. He asked the front desk to let him in and they wouldnt because the room was not in his name. After the issue the day before and they knew the room was not in his name and i had called to make sure that wouldnt be a problem the day before. I show up at the hotel on my wedding night to see my stepbrother leaving the hotel at 2 am. He was there dressed up, with 2 babies, spent money for 2 nights there and i had plenty of other rooms blocked. And he drove home all the way to staten island. I spent an hour standing there in my wedding dress screaming at the front desk manager and you can be sure a letter will follow. He comped my room but it doesnt make up for the fact that my family drove home over an hour on my wedding night at 2 am.


Leaving for honeymoon to san fransisco and maui in the morning. Will write that review when i return
