Had a girl from the MAC counter at Nordy's do my make-up. I did not know her, she was a friend of a friend recomendation. I went to the counter for a trial and then hired her for my wedding. She came to the hotel on the morning of and everything turned out great!!

Groom got all his gm gifts here. Easy to find the gifts we wanted (great selection), easy to have them engraved, easy to order, easy to pick-up. Everyone loves their stuff.

HONEYOOOOON!! Such a gorgeous resort, we didn't want to leave EVER! We were mostly happy with the resort, the breakfast buffet and other foods being good, and things to do. There are some minor service issues like having to ask for things more than once. But overall I would recommend at least part of your honeymoon in Hawaii at this resort.

Had the girls get the bm dresses here. They have been in business forever, but unfortunately theowners just retired. But if you go their website they are still liquidating all of their inventory! Lots of deals I am sure.

I got my dress from an online vendor on eBay. Pretty awesome, everything was received as ordered and there were no glitches. As with everything I ever buy on eBay, I only purchase from vendors who have great history.

The RMS Queen Mary is docked directly next to the restaurant that our weding and reception was at. So while we were getting married on the roof at the Reef, the Queen Mary and the Long Beach harbor was the backdrop! Pretty neat. We were able to walk over to the Queen Mary and take pictures with the photographer, however since there was not much time we did not go on board. I have also been to a reception event at the Queen Mary and that was great. Lots of great places for vintagy pictures and then great views overlooking the Long Beach harbor.

Our wedding was very near to the Hyatt, at the Reef Restaurant. We suggested to our out of town guests that the Hyatt would be great place to stay. It is walking distance from a large amount of restaurants, walking distance from Pine street, from the Aquarium of the Pacific, etc. They have a huge wide open lobby, late night bar, and the rooms are nice too. This would also be a great place for brides to get ready.

We absolutely loved, loved, loved Maui! We met amazing people, ate outstanding food, and had wonderful adventures. We wouldn't change anything about our honeymoon!

Rossmoor pastries delivered an amazing cake at an affordable price! The cake was full of flavor and was very moist. We go there for all of our special occasion cakes!

The Reef was a great all in one place to host our wedding! We had our ceremony on the deck, that over-looked the Long Beach Harbor. Afterwards, as we took our pictures guests enjoyed a happy hour, and got acquainted with the reception hall. The view as the evening came upon us was DYNAMITE!!! Our guests overlooked the downtown lights as we danced the night away!
