wedding at John Anthony's -VERY LONG
Let me first say this was one of the best days of our lives! Ladies, trust your vendors, everything works out perfectly if you plan well! Remember to take a step back and really look around. The day played out too fast ![]()
The day was gorgeous, about 75 and sunny with a slight breeze.
Makeup- Jillian: A+
Jillian is wonderful, she does a great job, & she is so sweet. She came to the house and did me, mom and 3 of my girls. The makeup stayed on ALL Day and NIGHT.
Flowers by Lorraine: A++
The bouquets/bouts arrived at the house at 1:30, no problems, her flowers were amazing! the bouquets were exactly as I had imagined. The centerpieces at the hall were 2 dozen roses - stunning, the room smelled of fragrant roses all evening. Tons of people commented on how beautiful they were.
Dresses Bridal Reflections: A-
All gowns were beautiful, came in on time, alterations were made, one minor problem was resolved before the day.
John Anthony's on the Water: A+
Ladies, if you are booked here, you will not be disappointed. Food delicious and plentiful, the cocktail hr was more than enough! The bridal attendant and maitre D did a superb job- we felt like royalty all eve. We arrived 1.5 hrs early for pictures by the water, they served the bridal party tons of food and drink before the cocktail hr began. Our BP partty was amazed at the place. Room upstairs was truly a dream. I cant say enough great things about this location. They are wonderful.
M&V Limos: A-
Clean car, arrived on time, great driver, lot of laughs with her. She returned to pick us up after the reception to drive us to hotel. Only problem- she brought wrong size runner for the church and the A/C wasn't working in the beginning but she got it working .
Dancejock: A
These guys were fabulous, we had a steel drum band for cocktail hr- which everyone LOVED. We also had 2 singers during dinner- they were great. The dance floor was packed all nite so there was no reason to break into cheesey songs and no horrible giveaways. People are calling me to tell me they are still dancing!
Candelite Video: so far A
unobtrusive nice guy- cant really review until video is returned.
JLPhot: so far A
Again, a great guy, so much fun and professional. Will give more info as pics become available.
Overall- this was a WONDERFUL DAY! Many of our guests (we had 165 people) told us it was the best wedding they ever attended!
