Review of my son's North Ritz Club Wedding

Stonebridge - Rehearsal luncheon - A+

They gave us a separate room, a beautiful glass Atrium room overlooking the Golf Course. Lunch was very good, very organized. The price was great.

North Ritz Club - A++++++
Everything was so great. Anyone getting married there, you have nothing to worry about. Not only because it was my own son's wedding, I think it was the nicest place I've ever been to for a wedding. The service was amazing, the food great, and even the cake, (which I know all you NRC brides were worried about) was beautiful. It felt so great having the whole place to ourselves. Unfortunately it had rained in the night, so we couldn't do the ceremony outside like we would have liked to but the sun came out and the cocktail hour was inside and outside. How great it was! George was a doll, (the maitre'd)
and we couldn't have been happier. I can't express how great it all went.

Leli Photography - A++++
Gary was an absolute doll to work with. We already got some pictures (which I am having trouble posting), that are fantastic. His prices are great, very affordable. I know I sound like an ad but I couldn't have been happier with him.

Pedestals - A++++
The flowers were so beautiful. They did the high up flowers that made the room so beautiful. He couldn't have done more magnificent centerpieces. They used the centerpeices for the ceremony also and we really got alot of use out of them. They looked like flowers that would have been twice the price. Amazing!

Times Square Orchestra - A++++
How lucky we were to have such a great band. Again, a great price, very affordable. They blew everyone away. From the minute you walked into the room, till the end, the dancefloor was so packed. And this was an afternoon wedding, so we worried about that.
They knew how to work the crowd, including coming onto the dancefloor and dancing with the Grandmother. We knew we loved them when we went to their showcase, well, that didn't even do them justice. I had friends come up to me and tell me they were probably the best band they've ever heard.
There was never a dull moment.

Hair - A++++
Carol from Christopher street, in Commack, was at my house at 6:00am, and it was even her birthday that day. I have never looked better in my 52years. I felt like a princess. She does the most amazing updoos, and she is such a doll. She is the best!!!!

Makeup - A++++
Alexa, from Christopher Street. She was also there at 6:00. She made me look 10 years younger, and beautiful. I loved those two girls, they transformed me.

Did I leave anything out? Just FM me. If someone could teach me how to post the ofoto pictures, I would love to post them.

Re: Review of my son's North Ritz Club Wedding

Hey groomsmom....I met your daughter-in-law the day before the wedding at Fingernails Plus. She came in with the bridesmaids. We started talking and I congratulated her. I told her I got married at Stonebridge. She told me you had the rehersal brunch there. She was actually coming from SB. Its a small world huh.....You guys had a beautiful day. My friend got married on Sunday also at Middle Island CC. Tell your Daughter-in-law J.LO said Hi.

What a small world. I will send your regards. She is on her honeymoon right now. Everything was so great. It couldn't have been better. So nice to relax now and know it went so well.
Stonebridge is beautiful. My friends actually life there so we are there all the time. Their room was too small for our wedding.

Thank you so much for the review. As a fellow North Ritz bride, it's great to hear another great review-esp. the cake. I saw the pic you posted of it and it's so pretty. I was a little worried about that, but now I'm not. Congrats to you and your son!
