So, after all the madness in the last few days with my sister not having a dress, etc. it all came together. I'm giving my mini-review of the day. Hopefully after the real honeymoon (Italy!!!), I'll be able to give more details. One piece of advice I can agree on is to have faith in your vendors. They all came through for us on the day of, even when I was doubting them at 1am before the wedding!
Mother Nature: A++++++ God blessed us in so many ways for the wedding and the weather was just another blessing! We had the only nice day of the weekend, which is great b/c I was starting to get nervous on Tuesday when they started talking about the awful weather coming our way. Thankfully all of the OOT guests were somehow able to make it in and out of NY for the wedding even if they had to spend several hours at the airport.
H & S Bridal: A++ My dress came out amazing and when I went to pick it up on Friday, they were still there and pressed it for me so it could look gorgeous day of.
Micheline de Paris (hair): A+++++ Micheline is amazing! Even though she wanted to rip my head off (we were two hours late0, she stayed on Friday night to do my hair until 1 am and then my sister's. And she did a phenomenal job. Everyone complemented me on my hair. She's such a talented artist, I love her!
Karen A. the Makeup Artist: A+++++++ Another phenomenal artist! We lucked out in that just my husband's (OMG I just said husband) mother and I needed our makeup done. She was able to take her time and make sure I looked great. Again, people couldn't get enough of the transformation she made in my face. I loved it!!

Continuation....
The Wedding Plaza: A+++ All of our vendors through the Wedding Plaza/Ariana Studios really came through on the day of. It was amazing to see how they all work together to try to make your day perfect and get the shots that you want. I loved them all. Yun Cee, Photographer She was great and I can't wait to see her proofs. She was a last minute substitution but she was so professional and confident, I had total faith in her. Vince, Videographer He was wonderful to work with, did all the things he was supposed to, and I think got some great shots. Cruise Control Limos They arrived on time, the drivers were professionally dressed and friendly, and they did a good job. They were like mini wedding coordinators when we got to the church!
Imagine Entertainment They played good music, respected our wishes, and were good entertainers. Nuff said!
Woodbury Country Club: A+++++ According to our guests, they were stuffed and drunk, the goal of our wedding We were really concerned about everyone being well fed and having a good time and WCC took care of that. I have no complaints!
Melville Marriott: A+++ Everyone enjoyed the accomodations, and we had a great party after the wedding was over! Good food and good times were had here!

Hopefully, the flowers show up this time.
Verbena Designs: if there was something greater than A++, that's what I would give them! The flowers were absolutely breathtaking! Jennifer and her crew are so passionate about what they do and it really shows in their work. Everyone complemented us on the beautiful centerpieces and bouquets.
Did I miss any vendors?
