Sorry about that- review 10/21/05, Watermill, Flower Michele, Artisan photo, Lucky Star, Oksana

Watermill Caters_ (A++++++++++) I was happy with them the day I walked in. My banquet manager, Brian was so accommodating and a pleasure to work with. They allowed us to have lit candles for our centerpieces because some halls do not allow it. On the day of the wedding the cocktail hour had so much food and it was decorated beautifully. They kept bringing out food to the cocktail hour and to the bridal suite. I was treated like a princess. The service was unbelievable. Every time I went back to my table my captain was right there to refill my drink and fold my napkin. The food was great. The hall looked beautiful. We added chair covers, which added such beauty to the room. People could not believe how much food was there and the service.

Irish Coffee Pub in East Islip (Rehearsal dinner)- I was so happy with this place. We had a buffet because we had around 50 people. The food was delicious. Prior to the dinner we experienced a stressful situation with the church. When we arrived for our rehearsal the church doors were locked and no one was there. After a while I called the parish center and they did not have is in the book. I was so mad because I called to confirm the Monday before. I flipped out on the phone and someone did show up to do the rehearsal. I was upset because we were late to the Irish Coffee pub and the out of town guests were waiting for us. I recommend that you call the church the day before to confirm. The dinner was great. My husband made a beautiful speech. He thanked our paremts, guest, matrons of honor and best man. At the end of the speech he addressed me and told me how much he loved me and thanked me for everything. I was in tears and so was everyone else. I had no idea he wrote a speech and it was a wonderful surprise.

Kleinfelds Bridal- (A++++++). I highly recommend any bride to go there. It was fairy tale experience. When I went there I had top notch service. I had a fitting room that was bigger than my apartment and a ton of dresses to chose from. I know going to the city is difficult, but it is so worth it. Before I went there I went everywhere in Long Island. You name it and I was there. I did not find 1 dress and got horrible service. At Kleinfields all the sample dresses come in big sizes and they use large clips to pin it on you. I’m a size 10 and ½ the samples I saw in LI were size 6’s .I was not going to order a dress I did not try on. The dresses range in prices. I tried on dresses that were 800 dollars and dresses that were 7,000. I got my veil and all my jewelry there. My fittings all came out perfect.

Bridal Reflections (In Massapequa) (F)- I got my bridesmaids, flower girl, and both mother’s dresses. They must have taken the wrong measurements because my girls had to go for several fittings. I had 7 girls and about 5 of them had to go between 3-4 times for their fittings. They told my mother-in law she had to order a bigger size dress and when the dress arrived it fell off of her. She was so unhappy with the way the dress fit her the day of the wedding. My mother also had problems. They gave the girls problems with making their appointments. Thank God I did not order my dress there. I do not recommend them.

Christpher Jon Salon in Sayville – I went there because I loved the way the girl there did my hair for my brother’s wedding. The salon is so full of them selves. They gave me a hard time about getting my hair done there because I was not a regular customer, however one of my bridesmaids goes there frequently. I had to beg the owner. I called way in advance. All my girls and myself had to pay in full prior to the day of the wedding. Every time I called I got and an attitude. The day of my trial I felt so uncomfortable. All the vendors on LI weddings were booked , therefore I felt like I had no choice. My hair came out OK not as nice as the trial and the girl, who did my hair did not say Boo to me the whole time. If I had to do it again I would have said forget it when I first called.

Oksana (A++++++++++++-) I loved , loved her. She is a great person and her makeup comes out fabulous. She did a great job I was so happy and so was my bridesmaids. A lot of people at my wedding came up to me and asked who did my makeup. I could not believe a lot of people noticed at the reception. She was wonderful to work with.

Artsian Photography/Video- (A++++++)“This one is for love” said Chuck. Chuck is amazing and was so much fun to have around. Chuck was my traditional photographer and Dennis was my photojournalist and Rich was my video guy. What a great team. They were so nice to everyone and took unbelievable shots. I can not wait to get my proofs.

Flower Michele (A++++++)- John is amazing. My husband was a groomzilla and did not like the first centerpiece because he wanted candles, candles and candles. John was so patience and created just what we wanted. We had 12 different size candles surrounded by lime leaves and on top of the leaves were cream roses. My bouquet was gorgeous. I was really happy with all my flowers.

Lucky Star Productions (A+++++)- I had such drama with my original DJ from LA entertainment. I has to cancel him because he called and said that he may not be able to do my wedding. Look at my posts. So I had to find a DJ in less than 2 months. SteveZ came to my apartment and saved the day He was great. My dance floor was packed all night. From the second the reception started the dance floor was packed. Stevie was on the MC, but not too much. He got the crowd up by asking the bride and groom to come to the dance floor and made everyone surround us and we sang “Come on Aillen” It was great. My wedding was over at 1am and the floor was packed until the very end.

Royalty Limo’s (A+++)- We had the Hummer and the 1929 Rolls Royce. They showed up on time. My two drivers, Frank and John were the best. They helped me with my veil and directed everyone at the church. I was very happy with them.
