One of the department stores in NYC carries Vera Wang, I think it is Neiman Marcus. I think their prices may be a little better than the showroom.
What room are you in at Watermill? We are upstairs in the Astor. We have narrowed down our photographer/video search to two Imagine Studios and Sherwood Triart. I am sending out quote requests to each of them today. We also considered Proline, but decided to go with a less traditional style.
How are you doing with music?

How was the service at Michele Roth NYC? Did you get to the fitting stage yet?
Thanks
Rachel
One more question please? How much lead time did you need with Michele Roth. I was planning on ordering in March for Sept. Do you think I need more time?
Thanks
Thanks Rachel I'll give them a call the next month.
I went to a 'family' birthday party 2-3 years ago in Pennsylvania. It was for my fiance's 3 YEAR OLD NEPHEW. We had to spend the night because it is way to far to go and come back. We had the party and it was getting dark out. The party ended. The men in the family decided to have a 'boys night out' and leave us females to ourselves. You guessed it...they went to a strip club. This was my first experience with anything like this, and let me tell you how not thrilled I was. My fiance could have said no when he saw how upset I was....but I wasn't supposed to know that this was where they were going (boys secret). Keep in mind - this is his family (sisters, brothers, nephews and neices) that were at this party. Well, off they went.
When he came back, he smelled of alcohol, and we got into a small fight. He claims he was watching the TV they had set up in the corner the whole night. Then proceeds to come on to me. Not Kosher!! I knew I could trust him with them...the issue was that he 'seemed' to be excited after looking at them. Maybe that wasn't the case...maybe he realized what he had after looking at something new for a change. But you couldn't have told me that on that night.
Check to see if the town clerk was correct too. I had a friend try to change her SS # to her married name after the wedding, and the clerk insisted on seeing her Visa, because NEW MEXICO (where she was born) was NOT part of the US!!! The clerk had to go check with her supervisor to confirm my friend was right, after she made a bit of a scene, before she would process the paperwork.
Thanks for the additional information!
Well, I had my bridal shower yesterday, and it was one I will never forget! My fiance told me he had gotten some football tickets from work, and they were in a luxury box so I had to dress up b/c some high-up execs would be there. We were meeting his friends for brunch beforehand. We get to the restaurant, and he is conferring with the hostess, and I can see her searching through her book, shaking her head. By this time I kind of figured it out. But, it turns out that the location of the shower was changed, but nobody told my fiance!! he was so upset! I handed him my cell phone, and he was calling everyone, but of course no one had their phone on! The shower started at 11:30, and its now after 12, and we have no idea where it is! Finally, my MOH suspected that we were at the wrong place, and called us. We had to fly from Oakdale to Smithtown! I finally got there at 12:45, and missed half my shower! Everything was beautiful, but I had to immediately start opening gifts, b/c we only had the place until 2. It went so fast, I feel like I never got a chance to chat w/ everyone. My fiance said, well, thats how the wedding will be...lol. Oh, I just have to add, my mom had a wonderful idea. She had bought a loose leaf binder, and decorated the cover with lace, ribbons, and flowers. Before I got there (she had plenty of time...lol), she gave everyone a piece of pretty stationary, had them write something to me, and then took each of their pictures with a polariod, glued them on to their page, and bordered it with ribbon. On the first page was a poem she had written to me. It was so pretty, who knew she was so creative? LOL. It was a beautiful touch.

I had a great experience with Michele roth so far. I ordered my dress in Augus for this June and my first fitting is not until April. Michele was so nice and spent a lot of time with me as well as Cindy. She even hugged me when I left b/c we bonded so much in those 2 hrs. I am going for a veil and headpiece showing in a few weeks. any advice on that???? Overall I had a great experience
If you have a little time check local craft stores for a plain white Pillar. You can easily add your own touches. Believe it or not I saw a nice scalloped white pillar in Walbaums last night.
