BOLI Preferred Vendors go through an approval process
Unlike some of the more popular wedding sites, a BOLI Preferred Vendor can’t just decide they want to be listed and create a profile. Each BOLI Preferred Vendor goes through a thorough application and approval process conducted by our BOLI staff.
When a vendor expresses interest in becoming a part of our community, we delve deep into their history, their practices, their reviews, and their materials. We research what your fellow brides have said about their experiences with each company, how they work with peers in their field, and how they operate day-to-day. BOLI has a strict set of standards that we require each vendor to not only meet, but exceed. If we feel that a certain business isn’t up to par, they aren’t approved to be Preferred Vendors.
If you navigate to our Preferred Vendor listings, you’ll see a plethora of businesses that have gone through that approval process. These vendors deliver amazing results for their brides continually and consistently, and we’re proud to back them!

BOLI Preferred Vendors are experienced
One of the main things we look for in a vendor is experience. Brides of Long Island loves to support and encourage new businesses, but at the end of the day, we will only accept vendors that come with experience, passion, professionalism, and expertise.
Your wedding is one of the most meaningful moments of your life. We need to know that our vendors can do their jobs at a high level, with no stress attached. Our vendors come with a proven track record that we’ve observed time and time again!
BOLI Preferred Vendors come with reviews you can trust
Part of our approval process involves researching what YOU have to say. We look at reviews in our brides-only Facebook group to ensure that each Preferred Vendor has overwhelmingly positive feedback from our community.
With our brides’ permission, we then list those reviews on our own site so that every visitor knows they’re looking a tried and true professional. These are not just anonymous reviews from faceless people you don’t know — reviews on the BOLI site come from REAL clients!
