We just had our wedding this past weekend on Oct. 29th. 2011. The ambience was beautiful and the surrounding makes all the guests asking:""where did you find this place?"" My complaint was that the ceremony coordinator Cindy Liang was disappearing the whole time after the entire wedding party walked out. Our programs were dumped somewhere and only found after the ceremony was over. We quickly handed to some guests who may want a souvenir. But I am upset because I spent a lot of time handmaking them. I am so glad I didn't leave the escort cards with them.
The reception captain redeemed the company. The flow of the entree was great. We even ate some of the appetizers. My prime rib was a bit overdone and it was cold after all the table toasting. But I could tell that the guests were enjoying their food. The last hour after cake cutting was a little bit chaotic. The crews were ready to kick us out for the next party.
If I didn't appoint a point of contact on the day, I don't think it will run as smoothly. It's lucky that I did!! My advise is to find some friends or family handling all the paper materials or favors. Or have your florist do it. Do NOT leave it to the venue as there are too many hands dealt.
