Greetings! Good news for those of you wondering about accommodations in Fire Island for the weekend of the wedding. We have reserved the Blue Waters Hotel. Blue Waters is a brand new, just opened this season, boutique hotel located in Ocean Beach, Fire Island. Although we are actually getting married in Ocean Bay Park, Ocean Beach is just 2 little 'townships' away. It's an easy walk (in comfy shoes) or an even easier bike ride to & from each town. Ocean Beach is also the main town on the island, full of shops, restaurants, etc...
To reserve a room, simply call 631-583-8295. It's under the Barker / Ramzan Wedding. Rates are $450/room. HOWEVER this is per stay, NOT per night. So the longer you stay & play...the better the deal! (They will honor the $450/stay rate from Wednesday - Sunday night.)
If you are looking to bunk with a group, we will also have apartments & houses for rent. The various houses accommodate anywhere from 4 - 12 people and range from approximately $1000+. Again, these are rates for the whole stay, not per day. So please take into consideration that the rate will be split among all of those staying in the house. The houses are fully furnished, include a full kitchen, and most of them provide washer/dryer, decks with grills, and cable TV, among many other amenities.
Please call Brian with Fire Island Homes & he can better assist with the perfect house for your group. He can be reached at 631-583-6661. You can also check out the Fire Island Homes website at http://www.fihomes.net/. (Rates listed on the website are in season rates. Our wedding weekend is considered off season.) Ocean Bay Park, Seaview and Ocean Beach are the 3 communities which are most convenient for the wedding weekend.
We will be on the island all week prior to the big day, so please come early or stay late & enjoy the island. And remember, if you have any questions at all...please let me know!

A few people have been asking about Fire Island & accommodations. For those of you who don't know, Fire Island is a very small island just south of Long Island. During the winter, it literally shuts down... in other words, we don't have all the information on hotels / apartments / houses / etc...for the weekend of our wedding quite yet.
Don't fret though! There will be enough places for our guests to stay...and we hope you will come early to relax, have fun, and celebrate with us the entire weekend.
In the meantime, please get excited by taking a look at the Fire Island website: www.fireisland.com
More info to come!
Love,
Mandy

Winner!!!
I won!!! I rarely enter contests, but for some odd reason I entered & won!
I had to submit a creative element that I am incorporating into my wedding. Apparently they liked my idea! I'm sure you are all wondering what 'creative detail' we have planned, but you will just have to wait & see. In the meantime, Eventus will be supplying me with my bridal bouquet for winning the contest. I know it's not much, but I will take it!
Thank you Eventus! I can't wait to see what they will come up with.

Jamie Cullum
Nav turned me on to Jamie Cullum a while ago, and I have been in love with his music ever since. I had tickets to his show last night at Town Hall, so Molly & I went to see him. He's a jazz artist and can play the piano like you wouldn't believe. The enegry was amazing, what a great show. Everyone needs to go buy his stuff now. And thank you Nav for the introduction.
In other news....my blender exploded on me last night while I was making my last smoothie. The Cleanse is off to a rough start, but I'm holding steady. I'll keep you posted.
Love,
Mandy

Fabulous 2009 Weddings
As most of you know, both my sister Kim & brother Ryan got married last year to two of the most AMAZING people. I'm so lucky to be able to call Greg & Lauren family now.
Both weddings were absolutely amazing. If our wedding is even close to as perfect as both of theirs were, I will be one happy girl!
And because both of their weddings were so fab, they have both been featured in recent publications.
Check them out!
Love you guys...and thanks for the great memories.

Honeymoon
Since we are at a slight pause in Wedding Planning, what better time to research destinations for our honeymoon!!!??
I want it to be perfect. I want a private villa. And a private pool. And lots of relaxing. And sun. And a butler. And maybe some surfing. Or kayaking. And also, if we could go skiing too, that would be great.
Any suggestions??
