OFFICIAL NOW Jade Wedding Thread

Yes, we are having ours in early May, so I'll let you know how it works out

 

Were you allowed to reserve this in advance, or did they just tell you to do it when you arrive in May?

Hey Ladies,

so quick question for those of you doing a TTD session, where did you buy your makeup? I purchased mascara and eyeliner from bobby brown but it isnt very "waterproof" . I think i will return it and try something else. I read somewhere that sephora has a good eyeliner that doesnt come off but i need mascara too. Thoughts?

 

Also, whats everyone doing as far as bridal bouquets? I only like a few of the options they offer and our colors are purple and lime green . My wedding coordinator showed me a sample bouquet but i hated it! LOL it was like an ugly purple rose with light pink roses. I want something with bright purple flowers! I love orchids but i know this is way too expensive since they are imported.

Does anyone have their ceremony breakdown, time/music.. Same for reception!? Anyone!!?

Hello girls, 

 

I was wondering if anyone has feedback on the symbolic ceremony's at the Now Jade. I am nervous that the officiant will have a thick accent and that myself and the guests will not be able to understand him/her very well.

 

My thought is having a friend read the ceremony, but the one person that will do it is NOT an officiant or JOP, he is just a nice friend that said he would read it.  That could not be as smooth either, he is gets nervous.

 

Any feedback on the officiants that the Now Jade offers would be great.  Videos so I can see would be the best!

 

Thanks!!

Hey Ladies,

 

So i was quoted for the DJ $350 per hour... so I was planning on hiring the DJ for 3 hours meaning $1,050.00. But as I was looking at the NJ Wedding Guide I saw that it said DJ $1,000 for 4 hours.  Now the 4 hours seems like the better deal... could i use the DJ for the Cocktail hour, which is in the Mix Bar, and then the reception in the Bamboo Room?? Did anyone else get quoted the same?

 

Thanks girls!

So as far as waterproof make-up... I was just going to purchase anything that said "Waterproof" lol but if you did that already and they were really "waterproof" then I'll probably purchase a couple of things and let you know how it works out.

 

For bridal bouquet I decided to go with one of their options i saw... I actually have the Divine Package but I saw a sample on their guide from the Eternity package that i liked and i was going to order a couple of flowers from afloral.com and add them on. I'm actually making a couple of

boutonnieres for the groomsmen and the bridemaid bouquets using afloral.com. Check them out!

which bouquet did you like from the package options? I also liked some but my colors are purple and lime green and the purple option she showed me was roses and a very gloomy looking purple lol not what i expected so im very nervous. I did look at afloral.com but im nervous about them looking really fake and cheesy. What are you colors ? And are you requesting specific flowers or just what the package ones are?

I liked NOWE009 its on the guide under the NOW to Eternity Bouquets. My colors are coral and mint. My plan is to ask for them all in white and just add afloral orchids and lilies in the colors coral.   

 

 

 

And i actually found out about afloral.com on forums here- I was skeptical of how they would look since they are fake but after seeing pictures the ladies on here use them for DIY centerpieces, bouquets, etc.  I was sold; I just ordered a batch so I’ll let post how they feel and look.

My colors were originally coral and mint also, but now it's more pink and mint bc it's impossible to find anything coral on Long Island apparently. I'm having gold accents and also want NOWE009 all white but add a Few pink to accent it... Love the idea of adding fake flowers, cannot wait to see your photos!!
