My 8-22-09 Wedding at FLORAL TERRACE with VISION (band), Becker Florist, J & D Invitations, Lilettes Bridal, and more!

Floral Terrace - They were amazing!! A++++++++
Arianthe booked us, George took care of us all night long, Martin (the best!!!) took care of us before, during and after the party. And my bridal attendant Lorena went way above and beyond for me. All I wanted was caffeine free diet coke and they didnt have it there - she actually left the party, went down the block and bought it for me. She did many other things for me like taking my shoes off and putting them back on numerous times, helping me use the 'facilities', etc. George and Lorena took 'hid' me from my DH and lied to him so I could prepare something special for him with the band (see below). They made me feel so special and important - this day would never have gone so easily and I would not have gotten everything I wanted, especially for the price we paid if we went to another RH.


Vision Band - by Franklin Wayne: A+++++++++
Seriously, people are still talking about my band (almost a year later). They were fantastic, they had people on the dance floor the entire night. They played all the music we asked them too and the transition of the music was flawless. I prepared a song to sing to my DH, I've always loved to sing and did it in HS but after JHS I stopped singing solos because I got a terrible case of stage fright. I called Rasheeda (the band leader); who is easy to get in touch with and called me and responded to my email immediately; I explained what I wanted to do and about my stage fright and she promised to help me. During cocktail hour, that's exactly what she did, I practiced with the entire band, they all told me how great I sounded which boosted my confidence and everyone ended up loving my performance. People still talk about that too
The entire band is phenomenal, but Rasheeda helped me out so much, I could never say enough about her - and anyone who loves to party and have a great time Cisco is amazing!

Becker Florist - A+++++++++++
We worked with Eddie who knew exactly what I wanted even though I had a very difficult time telling him. I described some things, told him basic colors, picked some examples from his book and he made me a demo CP, he gave me info to help me order crystal stems online too. He worked with me all the way and everytime I saw him he gave me a hug and kiss, was one of the nicest men I have ever met. You will NOT be disappointed with him. The flowers were fresh and stayed gorgeous all night long, my in-laws took home a CP and was able to keep it for about a week before it really went bad. We call him for all our floral needs now.

J&D Invitations in Merrick - Jan - A++++++++++++++++
Jan is the BEST! She knows her inventory and she is gets to know her brides quickly to be able to help them get exactly what they want. She is a NO BS type of person and if you are unhappy she will know and ask you a million times if you are sure or you want to make changes. She will NOT overcharge you, in fact, she has the best prices around, I know I looked. She is also a very friendly woman who I still see from time to time, my bf got her invites here and she lives in suffolk. She picked out one type of invite and Jan knew she wasn't thrilled with them, so she ended up picking another invite that she absolutely loves, and she just went back the other to order napkins for the wedding. Jan also helped me endlessly to search for my BM embroidered bags, I didn't like what she was finding and she suggested I go to :

STICH ART in the Tri County Flea Market in Levittown. I bought the bags at one of the stores and brought it to Stitch Art, they did everything in one day (9 bags), he told me to come back in a few hours but I came back the next day and everything was perfect! I ended up paying much less for the bags this way and was able to get my girls jewelry and other goodies as well.

Lilettes Brial - A+++++++++++
They helped me try many many dresses. They never pressured me to buy a certain one, they were extremely nice and helpful. I also bought my headpiece and veil from them because they were very reasonable in price. The tailor there was very nice, did not rush and made my dress a perfect fit. It was a great experience.
