The rest of the review from 11/29/02

So far I have told you about Jaqualine Nicole with a 10++++, same as Kristen from Enchante, Precious Moments Limo and Rev. Janine Burns. If anyone has any questions, please let me know - I met with so many different vendors and I have not one complaint about any of them.

Times Square Orchestra: The best decision I have made besides to marry Mike. The best band anyone of my guests have ever seen at a wedding. It was a Friday afternoon and everyone danced the day away the whole time. 10++++

Paul Marino Photography ~ I have not seen proofs, but I am still saying 10++++. He was so much fun - such a nice guy, patient, traditional, caring, can't say enough. He is totally digital so I git to see some of what he had taken right then and there on his screen. Absolutley perfect. Should have loads of proofs any second.


The Watermill ~ Exceeded any expectations I had. 10++++. The Vienesse table is still being talked about, as is the service, the food, as well as the decor. Absolutely flawless.

Honeymoon~ Royal Caribbean Radiance of the Seas ~ honeymoon in general 10++++, this particular ship - the staff gets a 5. They were the least trained people I have ever met. But, we had the times of our lives.

Mariott Old San Jaun ~ after the criuse we stayed here for a few nights - 10++++ - service, decor - everything was great.

Almost forgot - Garden City Hotel night of the wedding - 10++++, wish we had more time there. Beautiful place - they knew us by name when we arrived - b/c we were the only bride and groom that night I guess.

Some details:

Rose petal Cones ~ Papier in Huntington - 9 - expenive for 75 cones - could have uesed 50 - could have done without them, but Mike loved them and had to have them - I guess it was a nice touch to the service

Programs - 10++++ - My mom - Wow - people thought they were done professionally - she did an amazing job - I iwll post pics when I get them.

Please tell me what I forgot to mention, and again let me know if you have any questions.

And finally - thank you all for all of your great ideas.

Wow - I almost forgot - Flowers by Burton - 10+++++ - the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen! I got my dress and the bridesmaids dresses theree - regardless of being the best prices, they were the best flowers! Dealing with them in dresses and flowers was an ABSOLUTE pleasure from start to finish.

Video - Fred Tims Video - he was a nice guy - let you know when I get the video in a couple of months. He was fun dealing with leading up to the wedding, and was a doll that day.

congrats! glad to hear you had a great day!

one question: you mentioned that Paul Marino was 'traditional' - just wondering what you meant by that. thanks!
(i'm using him as well!).

Re: The rest of the review from 11/29/02

Well, we are pretty traditional people ourselves, so I guess he read pff of us - he didn't ask us to do anything funky - and worked really hard to make sure we got all pertinant family members with us - OH - and we DID NOT see us other before thecermony - the BEST thing we ever did! So Paul took pics before seperately, and together during the cocktail hour.
