Wonderful group of people, extremely patent, and very understanding.
If you are planning your wedding definitely stop by and speak with Amanda. Amanda is the most conscientious vendor I worked with throughout the entire wedding planning process. She...
was amazing! I only wish I had stopped in sooner. I would highly recommend this vendor, and you HAVE to ask for Amanda!
There isn't enough I can say about Gina and her staff. Always professional, helpful and caring every step of the wedding planning process.

nus. I know those will be just as perfect! I'm also using them to rent table numbers and card holder. They have been a delight to work with and have it all! They get back to you quickly and are very knowledgeable about timelines and pricing. I would highly recommend and look forward to using them for other events after my wedding!
Working with Gina and Amanda has been amazing. They made the entire process enjoyable and were always readily available for all and any of my questions. My invitations came out s...

My husband and I met Amanda at Oheka Castle’s November 2013 Bridal Show and was instantly intrigued by her captivating personality and her description on all the various services L...
IWP had to offer. My husband and I stood at the table discussing invitations, favors, flower arrangements, etc. with Amanda for about 25-30 minutes. We knew we would call and book an appointment immediately after we walked to another vendor.
During our year and a half of planning Gina and Amanda guided us through all of our vendor selections and of course we were lucky to have everything we needed from our 5 star invitations (my guest are still talking about my invitations till this day), bridal shower invitations, our Swarovski cake topper, favors, and most importantly; Gina’s thorough and persistent guidance through this journey made planning not only fun and educational (believe me there is so much to learn) but painless and effortless. My husband and I were in between purchasing a home and planning a wedding all within the same year, with a goal of closing on our home prior to our wedding in June. Everyone thought we were insane to execute two stressful accomplishments within one year, but LIWP made the wedding portion so easy we were able to relax and undertake both with smiles. I recommend if any bride wants to prolong that same smile during their engagement during their planning to contact LIWP.
Christine was awesome! My invitations came out just the way I wanted. They are very creative and offer great ideas, while ensuring that I got the product that I wanted. I highly r...
ecommend this vendor to any bride looking for an invite place.

I honestly can say that LI Wedding & Event Planners Boutique is the best! Period. End of sentence. Amanda with out question was helpful friendly and really great fun to work with. ...
She understood what I wanted and helped create my dream invitation set! Each detail I wanted or thought of, she gave me honest feed back. Most places just yes you to death and rob you blind. NOT HERE! They worked within my budget and didn't push me into any one design just because it was less expensive. Each of my guests complimented me on the elegant invitation. I highly recommend this business!
We worked with Amanda, at LI Wedding & Event Planners, on our wedding invitations and could not have been happier!She gave advice and guidance on every detail of the process; from ...
wording, to paper choice, and even informing us we had the option to create our own logo for the invitations! LI Wedding & Event Planners was responsive and helpful throughout the entire process and we could not have been happier with the finished product!

They are so prompt with all requests and answer emails so quickly! I would recommend going to them for any of your wedding needs from invitations to favors to cake toppers. They offer items in all different price ranges so you will definitely find something unique. They are my favorite of all my wedding vendors, 5 stars isn't enough!!

I can't wait to put all the pieces together for my big day!

oon as we met Bridget and saw her work we knew she was the one. She knows her stuff and is such a delight to work with. I recently just sent my invites out and the day everyone recieved them my phone was ringing none stop from my guests calling in absolute admiration and amazment and I am not exagerating at all. They are absolutly stunning! People were saying they have never seen such gorgeous intitations! Not only are her invites incredible but Bridget understands exactly what you want. I am extremely picky but I was able to pickout my invitaions in 5 mins with Bridgets help. Her prices are extremely fair, I believe you get more than you pay for. She stays on top of things so you dont have another thing to stress about. When she said something would be done they were done. I couldn't reccommend them enough. Thank you sosososoooooo much Bridget!

d to go look at invitations with her. Bridget was great, we really felt like she was going the the direction we wanted and all her suggestions were super helpful. Even when the first invitation couldn't be made the way we had in mind, she helped us pick a whole new invitation, that was even more us. She never tried to convince us we needed anything traditional and even helped us keep the cost down a bit. I would definitely use LI Wedding & Event Planners again.

I went to Long Island Wedding Boutique to have my place cards done. I had a real challenge in that my mother had already bought oval-shaped frames which were not the ideal size. ...
Bridge was so accommodating, she worked with me and were able to make the place cards look elegant and professional while fitting the frames. She communicated well, took pictures to send me for approval. I really appreciated her attention to detail, she asked follow-up questions and even found a mistake I had made. The price was extremely reasonable and the turnaround time was quick. I would absolutely recommend them for all your stationery needs!
What a pleasure it was to work with Bridget. She was very great with sticking to my budget while still creating a beautiful invite. She was very helpful, patient and responded to ...
my emails quickly. I would definitely recommend Long Island wedding boutique to other brides.

ng a Saturday night, formal wedding and felt that my invitations (being the first element of my wedding seen by guests) were important to set the tone of the event. I did have a budget and couldn't imagine blowing it all on invitations, but again I wanted them to look elegant and upscale. I met with Bridget who is just about the most amazing person! She just got me and got what I was looking for completely and to my satisfaction didn't bother showing me anything outside of my budget. I was crushed at other places when I fell in love with invites only to find that they cost $1,000 more than I wanted to spend.
My whole experience was great- my invitation came in perfectly and on time. Bridget oversaw everything and kept me updated and was almost as excited as I was when the invitations came in. What a great experience!

ok in the store if I wanted to. Her good ideas for graphics, layouts and fonts were great and she went above and beyond for me, staying past her regular hours once so we could order a proof. When they were ready, I got my invitations wrapped in tissue paper and they were gorgeous!! I even got text messages from my friends complimenting my invitations. I still treasure my wedding invitations and highly recommend Long Island Wedding Planners to anyone.

We met with Christine of LI Wedding and Event Planners. They are a boutique that specializes in invitations. My fiance and I didn't know what to expect but decided to meet based ...
on a telephone conversation we had. Christine is a warm and friendly person and has a lot of patience. We didn't know what style invitation we wanted but by the end of our meeting we had set up a custom invitation which ended up being a big hit among our guests.
There was a follow up call to see if we needed anything else and we decided to have them print up our programs as well. Everything came out perfect!

m! If you don't know what you are looking for, plan to make more than one visit - it could be overwhelming! Since I knew what we wanted, Christine showed us some samples and we made our pick right then. She helped us with the perfect wording and was great explaining what is more formal, traditional, modern, etc. I LOVED THE INVITATIONS ...they did the envelope addressing and everything came out perfect!

ions, from favors, to wishing wells and more. We got our invitations from them as well as handkerchiefs for my grandparents. From day one she was very helpful and kind all the way to the end. She always was available by phone or email and responded immediately everytime. Even helping with design options and proper etiquette. I would 100% use them again for future events. I would highly reccomend using this company!
