Wedding Update - LONG
Well, it's over, we're back from the honeymoon and I thought I would post what happened, and say good bye and good luck to all of you.
Only one thing went wrong: We were supposed to have 2 limos in the morning, but only one came and then had to pick up the groom and his parents after dropping me off at Westbury Manor, so they were late for portraits. We didn't make too big a deal out of it, since the limo company gave us a major deal (my husbands in the business so they all help each other out.) Westbury Manor was beautiful, the staff very helpful (Colleen the bridal attendent is a dynamo!) and the food was great! Not like I really got to eat much of it, but I heard all about it! LOL! We had the Garden Room, and used the Chapel for the ceremony, which was incredible! April and Neil from Church of Ancient Ways did the ceremony and I thought April's face would crack from the big smile she had through the whole thing! They really did a great job, it was beautiful. Even the peacocks got into the act, doing some sort of mating dance! And, although I didn't seee it, a rainbow came out while we were walking down the aisle and then again as we left. Truly blessed were we! The photographers, Pace, went all out (That's who my husband works for), so we should have some incredible pictures. We had a medieval wedding, and most of the guests came in costume, so let's just say the photogs had lots to work with. Everything went incredibly smoothly and we and our guests were all happy as pie.
We went to Niagara Falls for the honeymoon, stayed at a charming B&B, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, even though it was really hot.
So, here's my recommendations, but remember we know alot of these people either personally or through the wedding business - so we got a little extra here and there, but they were consummate professionals and as helpful as could be.
