Nice to Meet You All

Original post by CarrieJosh

Hi everyone,
My name is Josh and my bride to be, Carrie and I are very excited about our upcoming wedding.
We got engaged in October and have the majority of venders picked out. I'm so upset that I didn't find these message boards earlier because the feedback is amazing. I'll let you know what we've done and then ask a couple of opinion questions that I'd love some help with. So far we've booked

Ceremony site and reception site: Temple Israel of Lawrence
Band: Daybreaks Night
Photographer and videographer: B rett M atthews
Flowers: Dalsimer
Honeymoon: Secrets Excellence, Mexico
Carrie picked out the bridesmaids dresses (David's) and her dress (Adrienne's), I picked out tuxes (Zeller's) and we ordered invitations, yamulkas, and I'm working on the programs, which are going to be out of this world.
So far, we're extremely happy with all our vendors, particularly our photographer and florist, who blew us away
Seeing that our wedding is about 10 months away, are we going to have nothing left to do for the next 8 months?
Does anyone have any suggestions of reheasal dinner locations in the Westbury area that would be about $30 a head?
Anyone have a good suggestion of ceremony music that is not wagner or mendellson?

Welcome welcome! It's nice to see another groom to be on the boards. You could also try Papa Razzi at the intersection of Glen Cover Rd and Jericho Tpke. I've never been there, but I know their prices are reasonable and it's at least easy to find. Congratulations and good luck with the rest of your planning!

Hi there--I am getting married in a Temple also. My Temple does not allow us to play Wagner's wedding march. I asked someone today and I found out that Wagner was known to be an anti-semite and his music is never played in Israel, etc. This is the only song that my Temple said that I cannot play but I want to find out if there are other musicians I should stay away from. Is Mendellson another one?
