My mini-review of yesterday's wedding
To the point, one of the best days of my life. Totally relaxed and calm. If I don't comment on a particular vendor.....
de Seversky Mansion A+++++ for planning, A- for day of and C for banquet manager. Melissa Patron was great to deal with and worked hard with my budget and some upgrades. The place was immaculate and the grounds perfect yesterday. Bartenders were fabulous and wait staff overall very good with one who stood out as exceptional. Valet forgot to give someone their key back (push start ignition) so the family was stranded 1/2 way home in NJ for hours. They never delivered the key as promised. They are subcontracted and get a BIG fat FFFFFFFF
Bella Flowers of North Shore A+++++++++++++++
Words cannot express how amazing the flowers were. As I told the owner Cristina, she made magic on a magician's salary. Highly recommend and feel free to use my name Lisa Eisenberg!
Thomas Paul Photography A++++
The team was GREAT. Tom, Tony, Carmela and Mike (video) were amazing to work with. I wish they had taken more pics of extended family and more than just some quick posed family pics but I didn't give them a detailed list. I wish they had stayed a little longer because some cute moments of the kids missed but without seeing my pics HIGHLY recommend them without reservation.
MacCayla Michael's Desserts A+++++++
F A B U L O U S. Groom's cake was so amazing, my guests were shocked. Attention to detail, delicious and amazing customer service from this 1 man show (wit some office help) Their prices also can't be beat
Pastor April A++++++++++++++
Everyone loved our ceremony. April was amazing, kind and a delight considering we did everything via phone and email. Highly recommend
The American Wedding A
Great invitations on a budget that didn't look cheap. Elegant, raised lettering and quick shipping
Wedding Factory Direct A++++++
Great finds like FG baskets, cake topper and cake brooches
Etsy amazing as always
David's Bridal A overall, F for dress screw up but A++++++ for alterations and assistant manager for finding me a beautiful gown 2 days before my wedding (3rd one in the past week)
Barrons A++++++ PERFECT!
OKG Jewelers (Queens). A++++++++
They made my wedding band (custom) with my grandmother's antique diamond baguettes. We also got DH's wedding band here and he bought my V-day earrings here (6.5 carat amethyst/diamonds) Small family business place with superior customer service.
Transtar A++++++++
Great as always. I only used them for a town car to pick me up yesterday morning.
Lola Loves Makeup A++++++++++++++
Andrea is simply the BEST. My makeup went on at 10:30 and was on at midnight still flawless. Cannot recommend enough
NY Harpist (Janet King) A+++++++
I only her during the ceremony because I was taking pics during cocktails but she was fabulous. I cried hearing her play and she is extremely talented. Recommend highly
