Just my personal opinion, so take it for what it's worth. However, I am going through the same decisions right now as we are building a new home. Our island will be half the size of yours- 60". The model home we have selected to be our floor plan has three 7" pendants over the 60" island and I think they look lost on what is half your space. I will admit I just don't like mini-pendants, but that is not a criticism of your likes/dislikes. If I had an island your size I would use either 2 mini-chandeliers, one large chandelier, or 3 much larger pendants. You will need the light over this large area and also need to fill a large open area, especially if your ceilings are higher than 8'. JMHO.

@Porter, I didn't get the LED Edison bulbs yet-the store where we got the pendants gave me 3 halogen bulbs to see if it was better for me as I didn't like the yellow light at all. I am still going to order them when I do a Prime order to see the difference. That fixture is in a nook--off centered from the pendants--it comes with a chain ;however I am undecided if a table is going to go there or it will stay open, so had it semi-flush mounted. Does it look odd or out of place? @Beth, Right now they are 34" so when the quartz is installed, it should be about 32 33" from counter to bottom of lights. They seem high, but any lower they are going to be in our eyes.

For a working island and exposed bulbs, you and your standing guests will be most comfortable if the fixtures and especially the bulbs are mounted above eye level. So, the bottoms of the fixtures should be at least 6' high.

"The custom cabinet company has been to the job and has approved all the distances between the cabinets, ovens and refrigerator. " Most cabinetmakers, custom or otherwise, don't really understand aisle clearances, seating overhangs, etc. Their focus is on the construction of the cabinets. It's the designer's responsibility to ensure a functional space is designed. Yes, many cabinet salespeople call themselves "designers", but they aren't. When I say a "designer", I mean a KITCHEN designer educated in good design practices. E.g., what are the actual aisle widths b/w the items that stick out into the aisles the farthest -- e.g., appliance handles, counter overhangs, etc.? That's your true aisle width, not cabinet-to-cabinet like so many cabinet salespeople show.
