Hey everyone,
I always looked forward to reading everyones reviews so I promised myself I would write some when my wedding was over. I got married Sunday July 24th, at Beckwithe Point and it was beautiful
So here they are!!!!
Beckwith Pointe- Amazing, amazing, amazing! Everything was perfect, Linda and Mike made sure that everything was exactly how I wanted it, and our Maitre'd was AWESOME. Our cakes flowers wound up dying before the cake got there and when I asked about the flowers he said that he had to improvise and gave our centerpieces a little "hair cut" and our cake flowerss turned out even better than I originally had planned. Our wedding attendant was also fantastic!!!! Every time our drinks were empty he would get a refill, every time we left the table he would fix the chairs and reset the napkins, I cant say enough about the service! To move on to the food, everything was delicious! My one regret is not eating anything during cocktail hour, but luckily I was able to attend a wedding there two weeks prior so I got to taste everything then!!! I would highly recommend Beckwith to anyone! The view, the pictures, the service, the food....They get an A++
A Starry Night(DJ)- Carol was awesome and really easy to work with she kept our dance floor going all night, I had so much fun with her as our DJ, I had two small complaints and that a few of our must plays werent played and there was a mix up in parent dance songs, but really every wedding has their small gliches! I didn't mind too much. I will give her an A
Title Video- Tom did a great job, I love our video, we didnt get anything crazy just a very basic package for a really decent price. He gave us 3 dvds, a flash drive, and our raw footage, so we have plenty of back ups! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a simple wedding video. They get an A
Nelson Bakerman Photography- All I have to say is WOW! I have seen all of my pictures and they are amazing! I uploaded 300 of the 705 we got back because I wouldnt choose just a few, his candid shots were phenomenal, talk about a photographer with a creative eye, he gets those candids that you will look back on and remember what an awesome day your wedding was. I am IN LOVE with all of our pictures! He was FABULOUS!!!!!!! A+++
Jacqueline Marie(Make-up Artist)- She is a recent graduate from the Make-Up Designory. She did SUCH a great job on my makeup and traveled to my venue. She listened to my requests and made me look beautiful! She is new to the industry, but priced very well, I would highly recommend her! Her contact info can be found on this site
www.jacquelinemarie.info (She did such an amazing job the least I can do is recommend her as she is starting out to fellow knotties!!!) She gets an A+
Salon 877- Salon 877 is in Ardsley and THEY ARE OPEN SUNDAYS! My wedding was on a Sunday and it was tough trying to find a place open who would do all of my girls hair and mine! Jennifer was my hair stylist and did an awesome job! I went to her for a trial and loved it, I was sold! I give them an A+
Crowne Plaza- very accomadating, unfortunately our wedding ended up 1030pm and when we went back to the hotel we wanted to keep the party going a little while longer, but they closed the bar exactly at 12 and refused to serve our guests after that time which was a little annoying, but everything else went smoothly. B++
Westchester Floral- I have to say I loved them and Vito especially he was an awesome designer, my centerpieces, bouquet, and gazebo turned out PERFECT, but I was slightly disappointed in my MOH bouquet, it was supposed to be bigger than the other bridesmaids, but I couldnt even tell the difference, and I was also upset that the flowers they sent over for my cake died before they even made it to the venue, I am not sure what happened, but I loved MOST of the things I got from them so I will give them a B+
Fontana Bridal Salon-I got my dress from Fontanas as well as my bridesmaid dresses. I really wasnt happy with my experience with either of them. My dress came in earlier than expected and without a phone call or warning they ripped the remaining balance of the dress ($2000+) out of my checking account. Luckily my bank called me to let me know(not exactly the way you want to find out your wedding dress has arrived). I thought it was highly unprofessional and wasn't happy with the service I received when calling to complain about the transaction taking place without a phone call. I had ordered my bridesmaid dresses with them two weeks prior to getting my gown, so they had ALL my business and I was NOT happy about it, I did however let them know I did not want alterations there because I was done dealing with them. I put that experience behind me and hoped for better service for my girls dresses, not the case at all. I called them mutliple times after the 6 week mark and asked for an update, it was always you will get a call back and never would, I was LIVID, my girls didnt get their dresses until 2 and a half weeks before the wedding, we never received an explaination for the tardy dresses, even though we ordered them the first week of February, I am not sure what happened and I am not trying to bash Fontanas, but I am just trying to give my honest experience. I hope for all you future brides if you are working with them you have a better experience. I give them a D
Pitti Tailor- AMAZING, he did a better job than I ever thought he could with my dress, it fit like a GLOVE! He was PERFECT! My dress was amazing!
If anyone wants any information on my vendors please feel free to PM me! I will still be checking my knot account!
