So... I am going to be quick because FH and I haven't started to even pack for our 2 week honeymoon which we leave for tomorrow morning!
Bottom Line... ALL my vendors went ABOVE AND BEYOND any of my expectations...
Christine from Exquisite Affairs... was exactly that Exquisite... JUST AMAZING... Seriously... I don't' know how I would have done this day without her... I didn't have to worry about 1 single thing... I am sooooooo happy I had Christine as our DOC and very thankful for everything she did. Seriously, I am very laid back but she kept me on my toes and she also did notice I was having 1 or 2 lil stressed out moments and just calmed me down in 2 seconds...
MIA for Hair and Makeup... she did my mine, my MOH and my mothers... and it was flawless! She is a true professional... and I have been really surpised by some of the post in the past months that just been ranting on her... Seriously girls if you haven't checked Mia out... she went above and beyond... she was very paient with me since even up to the day I didn't know what I wanted to do with my hair so we played around and I loved everything she did... she showed up right on time and is the most very professional... I don't know every story to what happened in the past with a few of the post but there is always 2 sides of every story and I just think that if you are looking for an amazing make up artist look no further.
deSeversky... Again... AMAZING, everything was TOP SHELF... they held nothing back... I was blown away from this place... we were a little nervous since they weren't the 'typical wedding hall' but that is exactly why we booked them... They were amazing. Really there is nothing else to say!
Flowers by Burtons- FANTASTIC... I received SOOOOO many compliments about the flowers and how nice the looked... I am SOOOOOOO happy to work with Jon from Burtons they were fantastic!
Burtons for my Dress- Again... really great... I would have just 'revised' 1 thing which was my bustle... I asked for a reg one when in my heart really wanted the french bustle but I got flustered and made the wrong decision... nothing on burtons... they were amazing it was my stupidity hehehe.
B rett M atthes... I cannot rate them fully since we haven't seen our pics but... just working with them was SOOOOO MUCH FUN and their team is too funny and we enjoyed every second of it!
Wild Rose Video- Again... they were soooooo much fun to work with! Great husband and wife team and their love for this truly shows thru their work... I cannot wait to see our video
La Rosa Cigar roller- Great Hit
Art Strings- Cocktail music- Great... and professional everyone loved the look and sound of the strolling violin's...
Royalty- On time and waited for me even though I was late... OOOPS!

Leonetties Baker- did our Wedding Cake, Grooms Cake, Gelato, Choc Covered strawberries and pastries- again... everything was spectacular!
Sew Deb- My veils ( I had 2) were fabulous... exactly what I wanted.
Wingate Hotel- Really my only complaint was here... but whatever... it wasn't worth it... but if I had to do it over I would have stayed at the GC hotel like we wanted too but since our OOT guest were at the Wingate we figured we would continue thte party there... which we did until 4 AM but I would have stayed at the GC hotel if I had to do it again.
So... in other words... yesterday was seriously the BEST DAY EVER and I wouldn't have changed ANYTHING REGARDING THE WEDDING... it was worth every penny and I think because FH and I really kept stopping and taking everything in that it really didn't FLY by like everyone said... so my advice... just go with the flow and relax... I had such an amazing time!
Ok... this was only my mini review... I am scared to see what my reivew is going to look like...
Lots of love and Congrats to all the 7-7-07 brides.
xoxo
