3.25.06 wedding review-- HWW, AFurnodesigns etc...

i will not make this too long, if you guys have specific questions, FM me. I'm gonna be as objective as possible.

LIWeddings
people are so friendly and supportive. Just generally a lot of fun to be on, whether as an active or non-active participant! very good ideas from all of you extremely creative ladies. A big thank you!

Commack UMC
Wonderful! It was so easy reserving our dates for both the rehearsal and the wedding day! The church secretary, Donna is a pleasure to work with. Someone met us to open the doors for the rehearsal and also met the florist on the day of! The church itself is gorgeous. simply decorated, huge pipe organ in the front, stained glass windows... perfect!

Hamlet Wind Watch
From beginning to end, everyone at the WW is nothing but helpful. Denise runs an incredibly tight ship and the wedding was perfect. Our wedding was fairly large (230) and there were no problems. Location was excellent! right off the LIE. Food (i'm attaching a pic), I was told was excellent. I didn;t get to eat any of it but our cake was fab, and people are telling me it;s the best food they have had a wedding. Some of the guys were saying how they wished they could have ordered twice. oink oink. Cake was provided for by the HWW but they use an outside bakery in syosset, cardinali bakery-- the wedding cake was unbelievable holy cow it was so good. the bananas foster was bananas. everyone raved and licked the plate. you have nothing to worry about if you are an HWW bride!

SEE wedding album for all pics

Invitations--Afurnodesigns.com
she's awesome. My carlson invites were 40% off and she accomdated a few changes and we got them within the week.

My dress-- Filene's dress sale
A Romona Keveza for less than a grand! perfectly tailored by my MIL. it was a true find and i'm getting raves

BM dresses-- NETBRIDE.com
they rock. They got me Levkoff dresses for half off and shipping was free. I ordered the dresses week after thanksgiving and got them the third week of feb. We mis-sized ourselves and had to exchange a dress for a different size, they shipped the right size dress to one of my BMs in San Diego within 5 days. they are awesome

BM gifts-- I got them all pashminas from ebay and worked with a wonderful seller. her name is Jen, and the pashs were great quality and the girls all loved them!!!

Florist-- was a family friend FM me for details

Photographers-- I'm picking up my proofs today! review to follow

DJ-- Colorblind productions
my dancefloor was packed. people wouldn't stop dancing and trust me when i tell you that koreans don't really dance at weddings but rob kept the floor packed. Dianne served as the wedding coordinator and she was awesome. I didn't stress about a thing. They are amazing!

Pae Baek-- FM me for details

Hair and Make-up-- Sissi Chan
She did my hair and make up and also for 5 other BMs. She worked her little butt off and everyone looked gorgeous! FM me for details!
