I had one on my old laptop, but no more. I researched all city venues - Bridgewaters, 24/5th, Tavern on the Green, Penthouse 15/Loft 11/Westside Tavern, Manhattan Penthouse/Alger House… let me know if you’d like more info on any of these…
JL I have been researching venues in the Hudson Valley area - not exhaustively, but basics - Name, Location, Price, my thoughts, and websites. I’m happy to email my spreadsheet to you.
Also, check out the local boards on the knot - they have tons of great venue suggestions, reviews, and ideas.
I wasn’t quite sure what you meant by the mosaic picture maker but I know Google has a free DL called Picassa that allows you to do simple but creative things with your photos. http://picasa.google.com/index.html
I have a question of the hive! Does anyone have a good resource for wedding hairstyles?
I had my hair trial a month ago, and I don’t really like what I picked out, so I need something else and I am getting married in less than a month!
** should say “for” not “of”
The Knot Bios list has a hair section broken by curly, halfup, short and up. Good luck!
I just booked my make-up and hair person…now I need some examples….does anyone know any sites with good photos of nice makeup and hair for ASIANS?
Thanks!!!
My mom is thinking about having the wedding photographer at the shower. Is this too much?
Thanks! I actually played with the flickr one last night but gave up because the final product would be very blurry. I’m looking for something like Nadia did. (search “mosaic” under weddingbee)
It’s where you use pictures to create a collage of another photo. mac computers has this option, but I haven’t found any good one for PC’s yet.
Jen, I have a few hairstyles here http://www.xanga.com/ParisMadison/532750687/item.html
JL, I would check out:

Good luck ladies!
I am looking for stores selling music jewelry boxes (preferably vintage) as a gift for my mother-in-law. Any ideas?
help! A lot of people read your site, and I’m hoping they can help me out…Is there anybody from the St.Louis area that knows great wedding photgraphers? I’m new to this city 
JL - I have a giant spreadsheet for NYC locations I can e-mail to you.
another good hairdo site:

as far as asian makeup, you should look up asian actresses/models you like. i like song hyegyo, zang ziyi…to name a few.
Thanks for everyone’s suggestions!
LS & Brittany - thanks so much for offering to email your spreadsheets. You guys will be saving me hours of research! My email address is JLMwedding@gmail.com.
Thanks again!
