I am Married 10/01/04 Captain Bill's Review (some amatuer pics)

More Honeymoon pics added on page 2!
We’re Married! Everything went beautifully, just as we wanted it. It really was the perfect day, and the perfect honeymoon. All of my vendors did a good job, some of them great! There were no huge disappointments.
I will try to start at the beginning.
Invitations: Gina from LI Wedding Planners. 9/10 Gina was pleasant to deal with and the invitations were what we asked for. The only reason she is getting a somewhat lower score is because the calligrapher she used did a terrible job. Almost ¼ of my invitations had obvious mistakes on them and I had to reprint them myself. I felt the ones I did myself were just as good.
Bridal Gown: Macy’s at Smithhaven 10/10 I bought my dress as a sample 2 years before the wedding. I was very happy with how it looked and with the service there.
Bridesmaids/Flower Girls Burton’s Bridal 9/10 Only one of my girls had their alterations there, and they did ok. My score is mostly for customer service reasons. The ladies there were not very helpful on the phone, and the girls had a very hard time getting an appointment for alterations (they don’t do evenings). (that’s why they got their alterations done elsewhere).
Tuxes: Men’s Wearhouse 8/10 Most of the guys needed alterations on the spot because the tuxes weren’t ordered well, but the DID a satisfactory job fixing the problems, and all the guys looked great on the wedding day. My DH’s button popped on his vest right before the ceremony, but other than that he looked great!
Rehearsal Dinner Three Village Inn in Stonybrook 10/10 We had about 25 people at this dinner and it was delicious. We started with cocktails and hors devours, and then had a delicious sit down dinner. I was a little upset that they wouldn’t let me bring in a cake for my poor sister’s birthday, but they did serve her a special dessert instead.

That picture was drawn by an artist, I sent him a picture of us dancing at a friends wedding this summer, and a couple of other pictures of us for reference, and some description of what I wanted it to look like (wedding gown, etc) then I worked with it in photoshop (background changes, etc) to make my cd cover. I guess its how we dance LMAO!
