My july 3 wedding review: imagine studios, lands end,burtons, audreys bakery, code bleu

well july 3 came and three years of planning ended in five hours!!

mother nature: we could not have asked for a better day!! it was 80 degrees and since we were on the beach it was windy and cool. it was perfect!!

liweddings- although i did not post much, i was on this website everyday for three years. every vender we booked was through the reviews of others and can not say enough good things about the girls here who answered every question along the way. thank you so much!!!

lands end- A++++++++ all i can say is you pay for what you get!!! although they were a pricier venue, they were worth every penny. we booked through jenn barnett who is their best banquet manager. for three years she has dealt with every question and concern and helped us along the way amazingly. marietta the matried and kathy the bridal attentdant were with us from the minute we got there until the very end. we were never in want of anything. they always had food on the table, and a fresh refill of a drink on hand. i stained my dress a few times and kathy was there in a flash to get it out! all the girls got to lands end at 10 am, and lands end opened up early for us( we had a 6pm wedding). they had platters of muffins and fruit, coffee and tea all set up in the bridal suite. as we were getting our make up done, we all relaxed on the balcony and tanned and ate and it was so relaxing. the ceremony was outside, which was buetiful, although, during the ceremony a ferry boat drove by and every screamed run and get out while you can, but it was funny and everyone hada laugh. the food was amazing and the service was even better. at 10:00 fireworks came from the barge in the water and everybody went outside to take a look and it was a great photo opportunity. my review did not do lands end justice- they were the reason why i had an amazing wedding and i heavily recommend it to anyone!!!

jillian from gorgeous faces, sarah and bridget rock- A++++++ sarah, bridget and jillian were at lands end at 10:00am, and earlier then me! they set up fast and my girls and i came out amazing. i have never seen my friends and family look as good as they did. jillian was able to capture every girls personality in their make up and each girl looked amazingly unique. sarah and bridget took one glance at everyones pictures that they had clipped out of magazines and replicated them perfectly. my only negetive is that i had to fix my hair 3 times after they had left and i was only because we took pictures outside and the wind had taken out my curls. not really sure if it was their fault, but it looked amazing when they did it. i highly recommend all of them!

burtons- A+ all of our flowers were amazing!!! they were on time and the flowers were buetiful, exactly what i wanted and for an excellent price!

code bleu- A, the band was amazing!!!everybody loved them, they sounded like the real artists, and the dance floor was packed the whole night. the only reason why they didnt recieve + was because i felt like they didnt play enough clubby dance music at the end, but nobody else noticed and we all had a blast. all of their cards were taken at the end of the night. the lead singer also checked in with me a lot during the night to make sure everything was good, which i thought was a nice touch.

audreys bakery- A+ we all know audreys is amazing. we had the chocolate fountain which was a huge hit! teh cake tasted great, it wasnt what i had invisioned(looks wise), but it was still great and everyone loved the treats!

imagine studios- A+++++++ lia and nelson were fantastic. i forgot to give her my must have pics but i am pretty sure we were on the same wavelength so all the pics were taken. once the ereception started, i didnt even know they were there, but everybody told me they were. they were so unobtrusive!!i cant wait to get the pics. the best thing about them was the fact that in the midst of three sets of parents pulling them in different directions, they understood that we were the bride and groom and focused on us.

deacon bilia and cantor foreman- A++++++++. the deal is - my mother went to yashiva, his dad is becoming a deacon. we are so opposite in faith, that this wedding almost didnt happen from all the fights over faith with the parents. this match between the two settled everything very easy!!! they complimented eachother through the planning process and through the ceremony. both faiths were represented extremly well and everyone complimented us on the ceremony.

i hope i covered everything- please fm me if you have any questions and pics will come soon!!!
