My wedding review:
It started off great. My hair dresser Francine was right on time at 5:30am and did an amazing job for a great price and also did the hair styles for my SIL and MOH. Then the make up girls came right on time at 7:00 and also did an amazing job. It was Danielle from the bobby brown counter in Macy’s at the Smithaven Mall. and the weather was perfect!!
My Photographer Dennis from New Idea’s Photography was awesome! He came right on time also at 9:00am and took a lot of pictures and I thought had great ideas for poses and what not. He was great to deal with and would us him again anytime.
My florist National Wholesale florist. This is where the problems start. The driver was an hour and a half late to my house so I don’t have many pictures with flowers at my house. The driver called my house 3 times because he didn’t know how to follow directions. Then didn’t know where the church was so my uncle had to drive him there. I was so annoyed because he was supposed to be at my house at 9:30 and didn’t get there until almost 11:00. That’s all what his job was….to come to my house and the church. And Ana’s job was to go to the Watermill. Well when we got to the watermill and started taking pictures my uncle comes up to me and says the delivery guy wants to talk to you. I went over there and said can I help you and he goes yeah I’m looking for a tip. I was like WHAT are you kidding me????!!!! You were a 1.5 hours late didn’t know where any of the places were (but he found the watermill fine) and my uncle had to drive you. I said YOU DON’T ASK FOR TIPS THEY ARE EARNED AND TRUST ME YOU DIDN’T EARN ****!! I said there is no way you deserve a tip so get out of my face. I do have to say though the flowers were absolutely gorgeous but there was flowers missing in the centerpieces that I paid for and did not get.
Backing up a little now I get a call at 10:30 from my FH telling my step dad he is at the church and there is a funeral going on so everything will be pushed back ½ hour!! I couldn’t believe it because now that gave us less time to take pics.
For my limo I used Red Carpet Limo. I can’t say enough good things about that company. They were on time and out driver Tommy was amazing! He definitely went above and beyond his job. The owner Mike was always pleasant to talk to and gave me a great price.
DJ was sounds alive entertainment and they also did a great job!
Now we are back to the Watermill. We got there right before the cocktail hour started cause of everything going on and had some problems from the beginning. I wanted to be there for my cocktail hour but we had to take pictures. Our Marta-D was horrible. He was rude and got annoyed when I didn’t follow him right away. He was rude to my bridal party and photographer the whole day and didn’t tell anyone where to go. Then I met the captain. I saw him 1 other time after that and that was it. Needless to say neither one got a tip. Then at the end my husband wanted a family pic and the Marta D jumped in front of the camera yelling they have to leave. They are stiffing me. He moved over a little and my photographer snapped the pic. Also at the last dance my hubby said he wants to dance the last song with his wife and asked the bartender to hold the drinks there and he will be right back. They said no problem. Right after the song he went over there to get our drinks and the whole bar is cleaned and he asks where our drinks are and the bartender says oh I can’t serve you now the wedding is over. It was right after the song was over. The only person that did a great job from the watermill was Kelly my bridal attendant. She catered to us perfectly and got a great tip. Overall I had fun but I should not have been treated the way I was especially spending so much money there. I also was having problems with them a week before the wedding when this lady Loraine that works there said 4 days before the wedding well we just won’t have your wedding here and you will look like the ******* that day. I was so shocked the way I was treated there and would never recommend the Watermill. Yes there food and presentation are awesome but the service was horrible and would never want a bride to deal with what I delt with on my wedding day.
