We flew to Tahiti and then took the Radisson cruise ship, M/S Paul Gaughin, to Raitiea, Ta’haa, Bora-Bora and Moorea. We stayed at Le Meridien in Tahiti before we left on the cruise, which was gorgeous and looked like paradise. Our room on the ship was spacious and the food was outrageously good. The service was impeccable and each of the islands were spectacularly beautiful. We went jetskiing, kayaking, bike riding, snorkeling and played with sting rays as well as many other activities. We met several other honeymooning couples and they all had a blast too! I highly recommend this trip – it was so much fun.

The dresses came in 6 weeks, in the right sizes and colors, and they were so inexpensive. My BM’s saved about 33% on their dresses, which made them under $100 each. I definitely recommend using Pearl’s Place for your dresses.

My dress was 3 sizes too big and the seamstress/owner of HLDC did a perfect job of altering it to my size. It definitely was not cheap (cheaper than Kleinfeld) but it was across the street from my house so that was perfect. The only complaint I have is that my bustle kept falling out but I asked for the bustle as an afterthought so looking back, I should have remembered to make this a priority.

I loved Kleinfeld. I bought my dress at a sample sale using my coupon and they never treated me any differently than anyone paying full price. My saleswoman was so helpful in helping me figure out what looked good on me and I found the perfect dress the first time I went shopping!

Crown Palace has the best Chinese food in Monmouth County!! The food was wonderful and everyone loved it! They kept the beer and wine flowing and the service was really wonderful. They really took care of us and we were so pleased with how it turned out!! I highly recommend this place for an event or just to eat dinner.

The hotel rooms were beautiful and our suite was especially wonderful. Our salesperson, Karen, was so helpful and she sent us champagne and strawberries which was really nice. The brunch the next day was also really nice and everyone thought it was lovely. We had a little bit of difficulty with people booking hotel rooms, but otherwise, it was great!

We had two 55 person motorcoaches to drive people from the hotel to the reception and back. The buses were clean and nice and the drivers were very polite and nice. The buses came on time and they waited for us at the end of the night when it took us a little long to get our stuff together to leave. Additionally, I lost my cell phone on the bus and they held on to it and mailed it back to me right after the wedding!

Jeri is amazing. Two of my friends used Jeri to photograph their weddings and they did such a beautiful job that I had to hire her when I found out she was available. I didn’t even look for anyone else. Jeri is very creative and talented and her pictures show it. She brings a second photographer to take the posed shots so that she can focus on capturing the most precious moments that you have during the wedding – the ones where you think no one is looking and your true emotion can be seen. You can see from my pictures that she really captured the true essence of our wedding and how much we love each other and have fun together. My expectations of my pictures were high after seeing my friends’ albums, but they were definitely exceeded by the results. Jeri’s pictures are amazing and I can’t say enough good things about her work.
