11/17/07 Sterling Carterer, Habib, Fleurafina, DJ Kucha, Madan Madi

Limo: Royalty Limousine – A

Overall our experience with Royalty Limo was great. All the drivers were prompt if not early, new their way around and very courteous. We highly recommend Royalty to anyone.

Ginni from Habib – A
She was very nice too. She did mine and my SIL's make up. She got me ready for both morning and night. She is very accommodating and also gave us a discount since my SIL knew her.


Dholi (Indian Drummer) – “Madan Madi” A++
He was amazing and stayed till almost the end of the night. He was so good that many of my friends already asked us for his contact for their events. He was so good that at the Baraat he was there for extra 15 mins coz no one want to stop dancing.-).


The Sterling – A
They decorated our place very nicely. They have their own Indian decor for us to choose from. So we didn’t have to spend a lot of money to get our place decorated by using external vendors. The food was good and the desert table was amazing, my guest loved it the way they presented it. The Staff were very helpful. My mom tipped the bridal attendant on top of our tip because she took good care my family too.
The only thing is they forgot the Ganesha Murti on the place cards table.

Florist: “Fleurafina” - A+
Richard was very talented and his work was amazing. We used him for both days and the arrangements were absolutely gorgeous and his price was very reasonable. I will use him again in the future for my anniversary and other parties.

Photographer/videographer: “Vahoo” – B+
His still post pictures are awesome. We love them a lot, but we were hoping we can see better Photo-Journalism pictures. He is very good photographer, easy to work with and very friendly. He took a lot of pictures for us and he actually were there longer than we expected (both morning and night)


Okay, now it is the best part:

DJ - “DJ Kucha Company” - F- (if there is a lower rate I will give him that)

We booked DJ Kucha (Satbir Kucha) 10 months before our wedding, and very nicely, he DID NOT show up at our weddings. On both nights he sent someone else who had no idea about our names, our first dance songs and our rundowns. The best part was, the first sub DJ was 1 hour late so on the first day it was a mess at the beginning. DH was about furious and called the Satbir Kucha 100 times, but he did not answer or return any of his calls. After about 2 hours another sub sub DJ (not Kucha or even anyone who works for him) arrived and things got a little better.
The second day the sub was a lot better, (we had more time to prepare too, however my DH’s brother in-law spent most of his time on the phone with the DJ from morning till the reception time). I give him more credit coz he played okay and tried his best to keep the party going. We were okay with him. He didn’t play the songs we wanted but he did play our first song.

Beside DJ Kucha, all my vendors were wonderful. I highly recommend any of them. One thing that Mr. S Kucha is good for is at being unprofessional and not returning your calls. BTW we found out later that he got a gig in Aruba on our Wedding day and so he just decided that our Wedding was not very important and he just decided to forget about it…You can email the better business bureau of Nassau county to check about our complaint. Beware of DJ Kucha Company!!!

Beside this, everything else was wonderful and we still had a great time. All my other vendors were wonderful.

lovely pictures!!!

i have to comment on the DJ.. I'm sorry you had a terrible experience with him but I used DJ Kucha as well.. and he made my party.. a friend of ours is considering to fly him out to Texas for their September wedding...

Also he worked overtime for us since we had a huggeeee crowd and our hall extended our time by about an hour or so just to make sure everyone ate and because everyone was dancing..

Sorry to hijack your review but I wanted to add this about one the best vendors I had..
