Hey ladies, This is for all of us Westchester Brides out there (any anyone else looking for info or ideas of course). I love LIW and have gotten a TON of great ideas on here, but it may be helpful for us to have our own thread so we can share local vendors, places, ideas. I'll start w/my info and what I'm still looking for that would be great if it's local to Westchester.
missliss (Alissa) 3/15/2008 CV Rich Mansion in White Plains DJ- FM Entertainment (LI) Florist- Pearl River Florist (Rockland) Photo- Konrad Kolen (Jersey) Officiants - Rabbi Ron and Father Rich (both Westchester) Hotel- Crowne Plaza White Plains Hair & M/U- Sachiko Yanase
Still looking for a rehearsal dinner place....if anyone has any suggestions for either of these near the CP White Plains (which is right behind the Westchester Mall) that would be fantastic!!!!

what are you girls doing about limos? are you going through a company in Westchester or LI? can anyone recommend a company for me? thanks in advance!
Most of my friends have used Silver Star Limos which is based out of Yonkers. I haven't heard a complaint yet. Give them a call.
That's who we are using, and so far they have been wonderful and very accommodating! We decided last minute to have all the guys meet @ the hotel and have the limo pick them up 1st & bring them to the church. Silverstar threw in an extra 1/2 free for our Escalade to get the guys!!
They also gave us a complimentary limo to the airport, all we have to pay is tolls & tip! Not bad!!
My wedding is in 2 weeks, and I will try to post my review for all my Westchester ladies!!

YAY ME TOO! CONGRATS WHO IS YOUR BBANQUET MANAGER
Sorry for the late reply.
I've been on a wedding planning hiatus lately and haven't bee on LIW much (mainly because I feel bad that I haven't done anything in weeks!)
I'm working with Sandy. He seems nice although when I met with him he was really stressed out and maybe not as friendly as he could have been. I do like him though.
What's your payment plan? I can't read his handwriting and I'm not sure when more $ has to go to them! I keep meaning to all but I am so busy at work, I never have time.

There was a big lapse in payments and it seemed odd but I guess not.

Hi Ladies how is the planning going?
Can you please list the names of the Florists and if possible contact info that you visited?
I have been to Westchester Floral, Arcadia and Pelham Florist. I really like Westchester but want to see if there are any other florists out there in the area to interview before I make my final decision
TIA

I'm using Pearl River Florist, she's in Pearl River in rockland county. She's amazing and so reasonably priced. She'll go anywhere. But, if you want to stick to someone that's actually based out of Westchester, I've also heard of girls using Diana Gould. There's another too,a guy's name, let me see if I can dig it up....
