My 11/1 wedding review @ Larkfield Manor

I could not have asked for better weather that day, it was at least 75 degrees. I was so worried about rain or being cold and we were sweating.

Limos: Mark of Elegance B++/A-
They were great! They were early and the cars were clean. The reason I am giving them such a wierd 'grade' is because the bridal consultant I had to deal with did not give me the best information about the limo sizes I needed. The limos were too small and when the limo went to pick up all the guys, they were so cramped they had to sit on each others laps and when they came to get me, 1 of my girls had to get a ride to the church by my parents....(long story). One of the drivers that came to get me at my house kept rushing us telling me I was going to be late (I live about 1/4 mile from the church, there was no way I could be late)

DJ: Castle Entertainment A++++
They were great!! The MC was Nick and the DJ was Frank. Nick was so funny and personable. Frank played a variety of music that kept all my guests on the dance floor. The company is fairly new so if anyone wants their # FM me. Also their prices are very reasonable.

Makeup: Jacqueline Nicole A++++
I think the grade says it all. Jacqueline is such a sweetheart!!! I was running late from my hair appointment and I was so frazzled, she waited for me and calmed me down. She did an amazing job on my makeup. It looked better than trial did. I had the airbrushing done. Everything stayed on all day even though I cried a few times that day.

Hair: Rosanne at Miraggio's (in Miller Place) A++++
She normally cuts my hair. I don't have long hair (it barely touches the top of my shoulders) and she was able to an updo that looked great!!

Photographer/Videographer: Daniel Krieger A++++
I was on my honeymoon for 2 weeks and only 2 days after I was home he called to tell me the proofs were ready. The pictures are amazing!!! I am going to have such a tough time picking them for the album. I have not seen the video yet but I am sure it will be great.

ETA: I had a tough time picking pictures for my album. The finished album is great! I also am very happy with my video, he got some amazing footage. Very very happy with this vendor!!!

Larkfield Manor A++++
My reception was amazing!!! The food was awesome and the staff was great!! My bridal attendant was the best! She was always there when I needed something, she made me a plate of food during the coctail hour, always getting me and DH drinks. I still have guests calling me raving about the food.

My honeymoon to Hawaii was great!!! We loved it. We were there for 2 weeks. If anyone wants info, let me know.

I think this about covers it. I will post pictures as soon as hook up my scanner or as soon as I can get my hands on someone's digital pictures.

Thanks for reading (sorry it this is long)
